How refreshing is Sharyl Attkisson??? And thank you, as always, David Kirby for continuing to speak the truth for our benefit! I LOVED this piece--and I love that David highlighted Insel's bait and switch with the vax v. unvax study---that was such a dirty little trick and it needs to be outed to the general public... I don't know how Insel sleeps at night---he should be ashamed of the damage he's doing to our children and our community.

Outstanding job David! Thank you...and a big thanks to Sharyl as well.

Thank you again David, & Sharyl..

There is a lot riding on the success, (which would be failure) of the H1N1 and Seasonal flu shot program for 2009.

The Thimerosal content is once again beyond obscene for a toddler, and there will sadly be "Evidence of More Harm" with the 2009 program by 2010.

Thankfully a past VP invented the internet so there can be an exchange of information.

Scandalous is a good word, exactly what it all is. Well done David Kirby.

Also, industrial farming of farm animals is morally wrong. An animal that gives its life for our benifit deserves respect.

Lack of Respect for a lot of things going on in America is in short supply. Not just for poor dumb animals but no respect for babies, for the future generations, for parents trying their best to do the right thing, no respect for the intelligence of the American peopel.

The whole thing is scanadalous indeed!

My 2nd grader walked by while I was watching this video - she heard the word autism and said, "Autism, I know what that is." I about fell out of my chair, she and I have never discussed this. We've had general discussions out of necessity to help her understand a nonverbal kid and an extreme add/adhd kid both of whom were in her 1st grade class. I talked about imperfect brains in the context of imperfect eyes - she wears glasses but has a solid functioning brain. Her classmates have great functioning eyes but their brains are imperfect causing lack of speech and behavior issues. But Autism has not yet been spoken about until today. So I asked, what is autism? She replied, "it's a brain problem that causes people to do unusual things." How do you know about this I asked? My teacher read us a book, a long book about it to help us understand (a boy in her class). He does strange things a lot." Do you understand him better now? "Yes." "And mom, with a lot of work, autism gets better."

There you have it - it's so sad that there are so many autistic kids in schools today that students HAVE to be taught about autism because it is all around them. There was no autism in my high school of 1800 kids. At today's rate there'd be 30 or so kids in that same school and they'd be very hard to miss.

I'm thrilled though that the teacher and/or perhaps the parent chose a book for the class that accurately portrays autism as neurological problem and also that autistic kids can and do recover...wow!

Great interview, DK ! Sheryl asked the right questions and your answers were so pertinent. Not surprising to see that Insel was a no show. I especially liked your comparison to growing up without 1:60 boys having autism and how 1:60 men in your current neighborhood do not exhibit autistic tendencies - including Aspergers - excellent job of including it as a disability and not some mild neurodiverse way of living.

Thank you so much David and thanks to Sharyl Attkisson. I agree with Jake that one of the highlights for me was stressing that Asperger syndrome isn't something you wouldn't notice. Wonderful job. I have no idea how anyone can speak so eloquently under the gun like that.

I guess Insell didn't want to be interviewed because he knows what he says is stupid. Our whole public Health is being revealed as complete idiots. Swine Flu is going to unhinge their whole program. I took my son to the barber shop this evening and all the talk was about how dangerous the swine flu shot is. I was in heaven!!!!

Wouldn't it be great if this was the kind of thing that the TV news would do once in a while. It's time to get this message out of the internet and onto mainstream news.

Wonderfully done David.

beautiful David and Sharyl!!
