The Dumbing Down of America

 

The race for President has become nothing more than a reality TV show. The average American’s fixation on self-proclaimed celebrities has brought a man without experience, without sound judgment and without even an ounce of humility a breath away from the Presidency. Despite his oratorical talents, anyone actually paying attention to what Barack Obama says can hear that he has consistently attempted to talk his way around the truth and when that fails, told outright lies. Perhaps those that fail to listen closely will manage to see the smug, arrogant smirk of a man who believes he has already bought his way into the Oval Office. He’s actually the perfect choice for the me-first, take-no-responsibility-for-my-actions dimwit that demands instant gratification and lacks the ability to think a thought through to its logical conclusion. 



Professionals Urge End to Water Fluoridation

Over 1,740 professionals signed a statement urging Congress to stop water fluoridation until Congressional hearings are conducted. They cite new scientific evidence that fluoridation, long promoted to fight tooth decay, is ineffective and has serious health risks. (http://www.fluorideaction.org/statement.august.2007.html)

Signers include a Nobel Prize winner, three members of the prestigious 2006 National Research Council (NRC) panel that reported on fluoride’s toxicology, two officers in the Union representing professionals at EPA headquarters, the President of the International Society of Doctors for the Environment, and hundreds of medical, dental, academic, scientific and environmental professionals, worldwide.

Signer Dr. Arvid Carlsson, winner of the 2000 Nobel Prize for Medicine, says, “Fluoridation is against all principles of modern pharmacology. It's really obsolete.”

An Online Action Petition to Congress in support of the Professionals' Statement is available on FAN's web site,
http://congress.fluorideaction.net and over 12,000 individuals have signed so far.

“The NRC report dramatically changed scientific understanding of fluoride's health risks," says Paul Connett, PhD, Executive Director, Fluoride Action Network. "Government officials who continue to promote fluoridation must testify under oath as to why they are ignoring the powerful evidence of harm in the NRC report,” he added.
As a result of the NRC report, the National Kidney Foundation forced the American Dental Association to drop them from their list of fluoridation endorsers.

The Professionals’ Statement also references:

-- The new American Dental Association policy recommending infant formula NOT be prepared with fluoridated water.
-- The CDC’s concession that the predominant benefit of fluoride is topical not systemic.
-- CDC data showing that dental fluorosis, caused by fluoride over-exposure, now impacts one third of American children.
-- Major research indicating little difference in decay rates between fluoridated and non-fluoridated communities.
-- A Harvard study indicating a possible link between fluoridation and bone cancer.
-- The silicofluoride chemicals used for fluoridation are contaminated industrial waste and have never been FDA- approved for human ingestion.

The Environmental Working Group (EWG), a DC watchdog, revealed that a Harvard professor concealed the fluoridation/bone cancer connection for three years. EWG President Ken Cook states, “It is time for the US to recognize that fluoridation has serious risks that far outweigh any minor benefits, and unlike many other environmental issues, it's as easy to end as turning off a valve at the water plant.”
Further, researchers reporting in the Oct 6 2007 British Medical Journal indicate that fluoridation, touted as a safe cavity preventive, never was proven safe or effective and may be unethical. (1)
Many communities rejected or stopped fluoridation over the years. See: http://www.fluoridealert.org/communities.htm
