Nothing unexpected here. Obama’s EPA tells us that CO2 is a pollutant and must be controlled like all poisons. Obviously, the politicians don’t think the public is smart enough to remember their 5th grade science — that all living things require CO2 all animals, including humans, exhale CO2 as part of life.

So why *should* Jim Kerrey think that govt scientists are any more accurate when they talk about vaccinations? In fact, the prudent citizen would discount ALL “scientific” claims that come from our govt, since the politicians are likely distorting it to suit their agendas.

Note that I’m NOT against vaccinating yourself or your children! I’m just saying that we’ve entered an era where the scientific method has been demeaned by our politicians as well as our journalism. And this kind of “kookery” should be expected to continue until such time as our society can find an honest broker of scientific news.

Therefore, in the same way that Obama and Democrats defining torture “down” will likely result in more attacks, so will our demeaning of science result in more epidemics. There is no easy way out here either.
