Updated: Rangel, Dodd, Now Richardson And Nobel, Too?

Update: From a reader, the investigation into the Nobel Prize Board being reported by NewsMax is confirmed by multiple International press reports. Here's an english language blog that also breaks it down.

Let’s break this down, because at times it seems like one of those plots from “Mission Impossible.” A pharmaceutical representative from AstraZeneca sits on a board which votes on Nobel Prize candidates in medicine. That board voted for Dr. Hauser because of his discovery that the human papilloma virus causes cervical cancer. In turn, AstraZeneca gave several million dollars to Nobel-affiliated corporations to spread the word about “medical breakthroughs.” Just by coincidence, the vaccine patents against the human papilloma virus are owned by AstraZeneca.

 Maybe a few positive words from the Nobel committee might be just enough to make some parents ignore all those reports about bad reactions, including death from the Gardasil vaccine.

Or am I reading too much into a potential criminal charge against a pharmaceutical
company?   Maybe it’s all just a terrible misunderstanding.

Geesh! Can the Democrats and Obama put anyone forward who isn't facing an investigation of some type? Grand Jury looking at Richardson deal? Add him to the growing list.

Dec. 15 (Bloomberg) -- A federal grand jury is investigating how a company that advised Jefferson County, Alabama, on bond deals that threaten to cause the biggest municipal bankruptcy in U.S. history, did similar work in New Mexico after making contributions to Governor Bill Richardson’s political action committees.

This will be bad news for LOL. He hates rich politicians, whom he incorrectly imagines are all Repubs. He conveniently ignores the Dem Mindset of Malfeasance.

Hayshaker Harpo gets a close brush with reality:

"Barack Obama had begun thinking about his Senate successor even before the presidential election, and dispatched Rahm Emanuel days after the vote to contact aides of Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich to begin talking up Mr. Obama's preferred candidates, associates of Mr. Emanuel said this weekend."

Told ya, Harpo, you couldn't have it both ways, you dingleberry.

New lie from sombody[sic...Harpo]: "As one thing is quite clear. Obama didn't want to play with Blago. And that's gotta be killing wingnut land."
Harpo believes Obama lied when he said he and his staff didn't know what Blago was up to. I say that because (1) Harpo claims Obama righteously rejected buying Blago's appointment and (2) Obama said he didn't know anything about Blago's offer for Obama to buy the appointment. Harpo can't have it both ways. It just doesn't work. But that doesn't bother Mr Unscrupulous any. He will keep repeating this and his other nonsense until his last breath. What a dork!

Unfortunately, this almost completely prevents me from trusting this person's judgment about medical matters. Age of Autism is another one of the sites that continues to believe that vaccines cause autism, despite all the evidence.

"prevents me from trusting this person's judgment"

I won't argue with that but it is simply relaying what is being reported and was the only english language item along with NewsMax, which I also linked. I doubt the foreign press would be buzzing if it weren't true.

What did Obama pay for the seat when he bought it?

A blood oath with Satan?
