Yes, I have seen Mercola.

A new tape of Savage calling children with autism stupid, and troublemakers has popped up. He also calls the parents parasites.

You can read the transcript and listen to it here.

“[a] fraud, a racket. … I’ll tell you what autism is. In 99 percent of the cases, it’s a brat who hasn’t been told to cut the act out. That’s what autism is. What do you mean they scream and they’re silent? They don’t have a father around to tell them, ‘Don’t act like a moron. You’ll get nowhere in life. Stop acting like a putz. Straighten up. Act like a man. Don’t sit there crying and screaming, idiot.’”

He’s not attacking big Pharma, he is attacking the parents and the kids.

Savage ain’t a Bushie, He’s a bit of a Green/Alternative Medicine/Populist type. He believes that mercury in vaccines cause autism, just like you. I would like him off the air, but not for a fake BS reason like this.

You just eat this hype up, like the mainstream you put down so much.

He wasn’t attacking real autism cases, he was talking about how the diagnosis is so general nowadays that there are a lot of doctors and schools pushing for more diagnoses.

Why?

The government and other private orgs offer grants to programs like speech therapies, counseling, for autism. It is this racket that he’s pissed off at. I shouldn’t have to tell yall to “Follow the money”

“The Autism Controversy

My comments about autism were meant to boldly awaken parents and children to the medical community’s attempt to label too many children or adults as “autistic.”

Just as some drug companies have overdiagnosed “ADD” and “ADHD” to peddle dangerous speed-like drugs to children as young as 4 years of age, this cartel of doctors and drug companies is now creating a national panic by overdiagnosing “autism, for which there is no definitive medical diagnosis!

Many children are being victimized by being diagnosed with an “illness” which may not exist, in all cases. Just a few weeks ago doctors recommended dangerous anti-cholesterol drugs for children as young as 2 years of age! Without any scientific studies on the possible dangers of such drugs on children, corrupt doctors made this controversial, unscientific recommendation.

Increasingly, our children are being used as profit centers by a greedy, corrupt medical/pharmaceutical establishment. As the brother of a severely disabled person who suffered and died in a New York “snake-pit” of a “mental hospital,” I know first-hand what true disability is.

To permit greedy doctors to include children in medical categories which may not be appropriate is a crime against that child and their family. Let the truly autistic be treated. Let the falsely diagnosed be free.
