    Good grief!!!

    This write up struck me as so bizarre I took a few minutes to look up this Competitive Enterprise Institute outfit. Talk about loonytunes!

    They argue poor Bernie Madoff shouldn't have gotten such a harsh sentence for ripping off billions, harming thousands upon thousands of investors and totally wiping out businesses and charities whose only fault was trusting the scumbag.

    They argue the FDA is being unfair in focusing on mercury poisoning from fish, because it doesn't balance the positives of consuming fish loaded with heavy metals.

    They argue what a terrible thing it would be if the Federal government had authority under antitrust laws to hold insurance companies accountable for things like fraud, corruption, price fixing and market manipulation.

    Considering the above, it's not exactly a surprise they would lobby to stomp on research suggesting microwave radiation from cell phones fries your brain.

    Some other sources might be worth considering:

    Apparently, a male using a cell phone 4 hours a day for ten years becomes infertile. Nice, huh? Maybe that's a plus. When you die of cancer , you won't have to worry about providing for any children after you're gone.

    Oh well. If one have a journalism background that includes the National Lampoon or the Weekly World News, these guys must be more fun than kittens to work for.
