Atkins-Blasting ’Physicians’ Committee is a Front Group for PETA
PETA = Protesting Eating Tasty Animals:
The late Dr. Robert Atkins is being smeared for his alleged obesity at the time of his death, by a phony doctors organization that has been exposed as a front group for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA) and has been censured by the American Medical Association (AMA).
The Atkins smear is everywhere on the news, we’ll see if this exposure gets the same play.
The Physicians Committee for Responsible Medicine (PCRM) has taken in over $1 million from PETA and the animal rights movement. PCRM and PETA also share office space, board members, and staff.
Just like the numerous Pak terror groups do.
The AMA has formally censured PCRM in the past, calling its recommendations "irresponsible" and "potentially dangerous to the health and welfare of Americans." The AMA has also called PCRM a "fringe organization" that uses "unethical tactics" and is "interested in perverting medical science."
"They’re infringing on our turf!"
PCRM’s attacks on diets including meat, fish and dairy foods, and its constant demands for a vegetarian America are rooted in an animal-rights philosophy.
You’ll get my steak when you pry it from my cold, gravy stained hand.
The facts on the late Dr. Robert Atkins:
  1. Dr. Stuart Trager MD, chairman of the Atkins Physicians Council, told the Wall Street Journal that Atkins’ heart disease stemmed from cardiomyopathy, a condition that was thought to result from a viral infection. Atkins’ weight was due to bloating and water-retention associated with his condition, and the time he spent in a coma after his head injury.
  2. Trager’s own release this morning reads in part: "Due to water retention ... [Atkins] had a weight that varied between 180 and 195. During his coma, as he deteriorated and his major organs failed, fluid retention and bloating dramatically distorted his body and left him at 258 pounds at the time of his death, a documented weight gain of over 60 pounds."
Why post this story? Cuz PETA is a terrorist sponsor, with EFL as their military wing.
