"THE TODDY": WHEN PETER BOWDITCH ASSISTED GASTALDO

See below.

<snip Peter Bowditch's disparagement of two women>

I did not write (or quote) that which Mark Probert attributes to me.

In regard to Mark's comment, "Bolen must be getting desperate"...

Ostensible "consumer advocate" Tim Bolen is as silent as Tedd Koren, DC and
Stephen Barrett, MD about obvious criminal quackery "performed" by MDs.

Peter Bowditch initially suggested I am mentally ill for persistently
protesting the obvious criminal quackery "performed" by MDs...

He named an award after me - "The Toddy"...

When I protested that Peter offered no evidence that I am mentally ill,
Peter renamed his award and wrote:

"I don't have any real problem with the issues that interest Dr Gastaldo,
and I don't doubt his sincerity in trying to right what he sees to be a
wrong (or several wrongs). It's just that he has a somewhat unique
compositional style which may detract from the message he is trying to
convey."

I very much appreciated Peter's assistance in helping me convey my message.

I was disappointed when he renamed his award "The Full Canvas Jacket Award."

Again, I did not write (or quote) that which Mark Probert attributes to me.

Here again is what I wrote...

BABIES AND THE STEPHEN BARRETT, MD vs. TEDD KOREN, DC TRIAL

See below.

Pregnant women:  

Please forward this email to your chiropractor.

Obstetricians are senselessly closing birth canals up to 30% thereby
performing gruesome spinal manipulation on babies with hands, forceps and
vacuums (see below).

Chiropractic's accrediting body (CCE) indicates that chiropractic includes
PREVENTION of vertebral subluxation - which obviously would include
prevention of obstetric behavior that causes vertebral subluxation.

Tedd,

Good luck in your upcoming trial.

In publicizing your trial and appealing for funds, you publicly quote Robert
Baratz, MD telling Alan Alda in a TV special that CHIROPRACTIC manipulation
can paralyze.

"Going to a chiropractor and having your neck manipulated is extremely
dangerous. Now, can many people have it done and not have a bad outcome?
Sure they can. Do you want to take that risk? is the question. Do you want
to be the one who gets the paralysis? Because every year there are hundreds
of people who get their necks manipulated, have their vertebral arteries
torn by chiropractors and end up paralyzed."
http://www.foundationforhealthchoice.com/barrett.html

I know your brother is an MD-obstetrician but...

Why not mention in your appeal that MEDICAL (obstetric) spinal manipulation
can and does paralyze?

Why not mention that MD-obstetricians - the most prolific manipulators of
children's spines - close birth canals up to 30% and keep birth canals
closed the "extra" up to 30% when babies get stuck?

GRUESOME SPINAL MANIPULATION BY MDs...

With birth canals closed the "extra" up to 30% - MD-obstetricians pull with
hands, forceps and vacuums - sometimes pulling so hard they rip spinal
nerves out of tiny spinal cords.

Some babies die - some babies get paralyzed - most "only" have their spines
gruesomely wrenched.

ALL spinal manipulation is gruesome with the birth canal closed the "extra"
up to 30%.

UNNECESSARY C-SECTIONS/UNNECESSARY EPISIOTOMIES...

Obstetricians are also slicing vaginas and abdomens en masse
(episiotomy/c-section) - surgically/fraudulently inferring they are
doing/have done everything possible to open birth canals - even as the close
birth canals the "extra" up to 30%.

Now, to be sure, compelling obstetricians to allow birth canals to open the
"extra" up to 30% is not going to prevent all c-sections, episiotomies and
forceps deliveries - it's just that obstetricians have no business closing
birth canals the "extra" up to 30%.

Obstetricians are LYING to cover-up their birth-canal-closing crime...

For the Four OB Lies (they are whoppers)...

http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/chiro-list/message/3897

Tedd, it is sordidly FUNNY to see MDs (Baratz and Barrett) publicly whining
about chiropractors adjusting children's spines - all the while remaining
silent about the gruesome spinal manipulation crime of the most prolific
manipulators of children's spines - MD-obstetricians.

Good luck in your courtroom fight with Stephen Barrett, MD - but keep in
mind - you and Steve have something in common - you are both silent about
OBVIOUS massive spinal manpulation crime.

By remaining silent, the chiropractic profession is missing a golden
opportunity to save tiny lives and tiny limbs and PREVENT more putative
vertebral subluxations than DCs will ever be able to charge to adjust by
hand.

Can it be possible that Robert Baratz, MD is attacking chiropractic
manipulation as a pre-emptive strike - in hopes that DCs will be cowed into
silence about the hazards of MEDICAL manipulation?

If so, the strategy seems to be working - most chiros are silent - babies be
damned.

Thanks for reading.

Sincerely,

Todd

PS Of course, senselessly closing of birth canals the "extra" up to 30% is
just one example of obvious obstetric criminal negligence.

There is also mass baby asphyxiation by MDs...

It is possible that Oregon Attorney General Hardy Myers is finally moving to
stop the bizarre obstetric practice of immediate cord clamping - i.e.
obstetricians routinely asphyxiating babies - forcing them to breathe with
their lungs before they are ready - and robbing them of up to 50% of their
blood volume in the process.
