Jousting with the Lancet: Pajamas Media Interviews Professor Gilbert Burnham
denial is tricky, isn’t it guys?
look, 600,000 is awfully high, and the guy himself admits it’s a survey- meaning the results are prone to all sorts of issues.
but what i find interesting is that 90% of the comments here seize on the fact that the number probably isn’t quite that high not to say “but there’s still a big problem here”, but instead to suggest we try this guy for treason???
look, everyone sees the reports of 200+ dead per day. even if the number is 1/3rd of what he says- 200,000- does that mean things are hunky dory? there have been 440 murders in nyc this year- there have been that many in iraq in the last four days.
i’m a dem (fire away), but i’m no liberal pu**y and i’m no cut-and-runner. i want one of two things- either us completely out to let them destroy themselves, or us to go in PROPER with 400,000 troops and bring the hammer down. if we don’t do one or the other, this is only going to keep going exactly as it is.
or should i be arrested for treason for saying that?
