I was reading this and that on the Internets when I stumbled upon an eye opener. I’m sure we have all heard of the category “Death by Doctor”. Here is a little known subgroup ... “Death by Being Studied”.
An unexpected number of deaths among patients receiving intense therapy to lower their blood sugar forced the National Institutes of Health to abruptly cut short part of a major study on diabetes and heart disease. The therapy was aimed at reducing to normal levels the blood sugar of type 2 diabetics at especially high risk of heart attack and stroke. There were 257 deaths among people receiving intense diabetes treatment, compared with 203 in the standard treatment group,

NIH’s National Heart Lung and Blood Institute said.This adds a whole new dimension to understanding the results of all these studies doesn’t it. Is death an improved level of blood sugar? How does this get factored in? Will this study conclude we should NOT aggressively treat type 2 diabetes? If not, why not? What more evidence would one need? Or will they now start another study to prove what they wanted to originally prove but figure out a way to keep from killing the study group? At one point will the medical community start doing studies just to find out the reality rather than the points they hope to prove in the first place? One thing for sure ... if the disease doesn’t get you the study just might.
A woman and a man are involved in a car accident on a snowy, cold Monday morning; it’s a bad one. Both of their cars are totally demolished but amazingly neither of them is hurt. God works in mysterious ways. After they crawl out of their cars, the man is yelling about women drivers.
The woman says, ‘So, you’re a man. That’s interesting. I’m a woman. Wow, just look at our cars! There’s nothing left, but we’re unhurt. This must be a sign from God that we should be friends and live in peace for the rest of our days’.
Mollified, the man replies, ‘Oh yes, I agree completely, this must be a sign from God! But you’re still at fault ... women shouldn’t be allowed to drive.’
The woman continues, ‘And look at this, here’s another miracle. My car is completely demolished but this bottle of wine didn’t break. Surely God wants us to drink this wine and celebrate our good fortune.’ She hands the bottle to the man. The man nods his head in agreement, opens it and drinks half the bottle and then hands it back to the woman.
The woman takes the bottle, puts the cap back on and hands it back to the man.
The man asks, ‘Aren’t you having any?’
The woman replies, ‘No. I think I’ll just wait for the police....’
MORAL OF THE STORY: Women are clever, evil bitches. Don’t mess with them.
There’s a new rule at the Republican National Committee. Refer to the two leading Democratic presidential candidates simply as “Barack” and “Hillary” and you’ll be fined $10. The reason: Using first names makes the candidates sound more likable but calling them “Senator Obama” and “Senator Clinton” makes them sound more distant and bureaucratic. “I don’t think people are actually being fined,” says one insider. But everyone is being “encouraged” to follow the rule.
This is enough evidence for me to abolish our political system altogether!
