It's A Fact: Idiots Don't Like Being Called Stupid

Why do you only hear doctors talking like this on a fictional television series and at (our sister blog) Panda Bear, M.D.? And why are Jenny McCarthy, Jim Carrey, Oprah Winfrey, Ellen Degeneres, Rosie O'Donnell, and the rest of the loony tunes who popularized this anti-vaccine/autism idea never mentioned? They're as much to blame for the death and illness that followed as Andrew Wakefield, who wrote that original bogus study. And where's the widely covered follow-up on their "beliefs" and what they have brought to us? Oh, sorry, I forgot:

NewAgers believe in everything but the widely covered follow-up to see if they were telling the truth.

That just wouldn't be smart,...UPDATE:



This clip is great because - what do you know! - Penn makes the same points, and savages the same crew (including "fucking Oprah!") as we "crazies" do! Now all we need is more of you and - viola! - we can form a cult! No, not really - some people, who ought to know better, think it's a cult already - but, in order for that to be true, we'd have to find something untrue and stupid to gather around and worship and, believe it or not, that just ain't us - or what we're into. Yeah:

Believe it or not.
