We're going to say our information is inadequate to accept or reject.

That is a statement.

And then they work on that statement for a while.

And there's this woman named Barbara Lowe Fisher who offered them a lot of information that they rejected.

They turned it down.

And here's what they say about her in the meeting.

They say, all we are going to get from her is a list of hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of kids who were developing normally, but they got their MMR vaccine and then they started to regress.

In other words, all we're going to get is exactly what we're being paid to sit here and do.

That's what America was asking them to do.

And so all these – I'll just do one more.

There's a guy, Dr. Goodman, and he says to the group, I've got something big.

He says it's not – it's still sort of rough, but – and then he rolls out this big invention of his.

I call it the three-category system.

That is high, intermediate, and inadequate, with the other two categories being no evidence at all or favors acceptance.

And he says what we're looking for is an argument that is embedded inside the rhetoric, an argument that might be of some value to parse out and take pieces of and make sure that we address it in its pieces.

That's like a fucking Scrabble set that turned upside down.

It doesn't make any sense.

But I'm not a scientist, so I shouldn't be able to opine on it, but that's why.

But it's clear what they're doing.

What they're doing is trying to make that water as muddy as possible.
