http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ann_Coulter

She frequently appears on television, radio, and as a speaker at public events and private events. Well-known for her right-wing political opinions and the controversial ways in which she defends them, Coulter has described herself as a polemicist who likes to "stir up the pot" and, unlike "broadcasters," does not "pretend to be impartial or balanced."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polemics

A polemic is a form of dispute, wherein the main efforts of the disputing parties are aimed at establishing the superiority of their own points of view regarding an issue. Along with debate, polemic is one of the more common forms of dispute. Similar to debate, it is constrained by a definite thesis which serves as the subject of controversy. However, unlike debate, which may seek common ground between two parties, a polemic is intended to establish the supremacy of a single point of view by refuting an opposing point of view.

Polemic usually addresses serious matters of religious, philosophical, political, or scientific importance, and is often written to dispute or refute a widely accepted position.

History

Polemic journalism was common in continental Europe, when libel laws were not as stringent.

Coulter is a man, look at his Adam`s apple. This tranny is as mutant as it gets without any radiation.
Once when I was stoned out of my skull, a similar creature flirted with me for a few minutes. I was barely awake and started to smile back. Then a buddy of mine whispered in my ear the advice to look at "her" Adam`s apple. I almost puked.

Good one, MSM. Let's not debate a single aspect of 9/11; that will leave us much more time to get the word out there that having your DNA sliced and mutated is healthy. It's OK, it's just progressive evolution. Coulter put the kRaZy in conservatism.

wow, i'm glad the music in this Internet cafe is so loud - I CAN'T HEAR YOU ANN ... and boy am i glad.

she is a walking example of the "there's never a drive-by shooting when you need it" theme.

that's not a threat - i'm just saying.

That is pretty much what my wife said when she posted that video on her facebook yesterday ;)

I didn't watch it till just now....... :-\


I am not defending Ann in any way,shape or form...So don't attack me...

But she did name some her sources for this info........Did anyone check out those sources?

What that radiation is good for you


"Nuclear power is the safest power there is," said a knowledgeable man on the street who declined to give his name. "The fears of radiation are ridiculous. You're radioactive; I'm radioactive. Tiny doses of radioactivity are really helpful they've discovered. People in Colorado get two or three times the dose of normal radioactivity, compared to what we get. So I say more nuclear power plants!" Then a smaller, second head growing out of his neck chimed in, "And more equal rights for mutants!"http://gothamist.com/2011/03/22/indian_point_safe_radiation_good_fo.php

Other than being a cheap ladyboy whore for the neo-cons? Probably quite a bit... ;)

It's kind of funny, Buddha... she's practically worshipped as a goddess on some of the firearms sites I used to frequent... but even back then (5 or so years ago), I found her to be repulsive, unfeminine, and hard-core wierd sort of "bitchy". Kind of the right-wing version of Lady Gaga... if that's possible! :o

I don't know, I'm intrigued by what she is claiming. I'd like to see some more sources on this.

Radiation poisoning
Definition of Radiation sickness:

Radiation sickness is illness and symptoms resulting from excessive exposure to radiation. Exposure may be accidental or intentional (as in radiation therapy).
Considerations:

There are two basic types of radiation: ionizing and nonionizing.

Nonionizing radiation comes in the form of light, radio waves, microwaves and radar. This kind of radiation usually does not cause tissue damage.

Ionizing radiation is radiation that produces immediate chemical effects on human tissue . X-rays, gamma rays, and particle bombardment (neutron beam, electron beam, protons, mesons, and others) give off ionizing radiation. This type of radiation can be used for medical testing and treatment, industrial and manufacturing purposes, weapons and weapons development, and more.

Radiation sickness results when humans (or other animals) are exposed to very large doses of ionizing radiation. Radiation exposure can occur as a single large exposure (acute), or a series of small exposures spread over time (chronic).

Radiation sickness is generally associated with acute exposure and has a characteristic set of symptoms that appear in an orderly fashion. Chronic exposure is usually associated with delayed medical problems such as cancer and premature aging, which may happen over a long period of time.

The risk of cancer depends on the dose and begins to build up even with very low doses. There is no "minimum threshhold."

Exposure from x-rays or gamma rays is measured in units of roentgens. For example:
Total body exposure of 100 roentgens (or 1 Gy) causes radiation sickness.
Total body exposure of 400 roentgens (or 4 Gy) causes radiation sickness and death in half the individuals. Without medical treatment, nearly everyone who receives more than this amount of radiation will die within 30 days.
100,000 rads causes almost immediate unconsciousness and death within an hour

The severity of symptoms and illness (acute radiation sickness) depends on the type and amount of radiation, how long you were exposed, and which part of the body was exposed. Symptoms of radiation sickness may occur immediately after exposure, or over the next few days, weeks, or months.

Because it is difficult to determine the amount of radiation exposure from nuclear accidents, the best signs of the severity of the exposure are: the length of time between the exposure and the onset of symptoms, the severity of symptoms, and severity of changes in white blood cells. If a person vomits less than an hour after being exposed, that usually means the radiation dose received is very high and death may be expected.

Children who receive radiation treatments or who are accidentally exposed to radiation will be treated based on their symptoms and their blood cell counts. Frequent blood studies are necessary and require a small puncture through the skin into a vein to obtain blood samples.
Causes:

The causes include:
Accidental exposure to high doses of radiation such as a nuclear power plant accidents
Exposure to excessive radiation for medical treatments

I agree, I don't see how ionizing radiation can be healthy in any way from a logical standpoint. But sometimes seemingly obvious things turn out not to be so obvious.

That's the job of the entire MSM. Coulter is just a flavor for the "right" thinking breed of sheep.

[Serpo]

They are saying stupid things like, why, we are exposed to radiation all the time in our daily life, we get radiation from outer space. But that’s one millisievert per year. A year has 365 days, a day has 24 hours; multiply 365 by 24, you get 8760. Multiply the 400 millisieverts by that, you get 3,500,000 the normal dose. You call that safe? And what media have reported this? None. They compare it to a CT scan, which is over in an instant; that has nothing to do with it. The reason radioactivity can be measured is that radioactive material is escaping. What is dangerous is when that material enters your body and irradiates it from inside. These industry-mouthpiece scholars come on TV and what to they say? They say as you move away the radiation is reduced in inverse ratio to the square of the distance. I want to say the reverse. Internal irradiation happens when radioactive material is ingested into the body. What happens? Say there is a nuclear particle one meter away from you. You breathe it in, it sticks inside your body; the distance between you and it is now at the micron level. One meter is 1000 millimeters, one micron is one thousandth of a millimeter. That’s a thousand times a thousand: a thousand squared. That’s the real meaning of “inverse ratio of the square of the distance.” Radiation exposure is increased by a factor of a trillion. Inhaling even the tiniest particle, that’s the danger.



Yoh: So making comparisons with X-rays and CT scans has no meaning. Because you can breathe in radioactive material.

Hirose: That’s right. When it enters your body, there’s no telling where it will go. The biggest danger is women, especially pregnant women, and little children. Now they’re talking about iodine and cesium, but that’s only part of it, they’re not using the proper detection instruments. What they call monitoring means only measuring the amount of radiation in the air. Their instruments don’t eat. What they measure has no connection with the amount of radioactive material. . . .

Yoh: So damage from radioactive rays and damage from radioactive material are not the same.

Hirose: If you ask, are any radioactive rays from the Fukushima Nuclear Station here in this studio, the answer will be no. But radioactive particles are carried here by the air. When the core begins to melt down, elements inside like iodine turn to gas. It rises to the top, so if there is any crevice it escapes outside.

Yoh: Is there any way to detect this?

Hirose: I was told by a newspaper reporter that now Tepco is not in shape even to do regular monitoring. They just take an occasional measurement, and that becomes the basis of Edano’s statements. You have to take constant measurements, but they are not able to do that. And you need to investigate just what is escaping, and how much. That requires very sophisticated measuring instruments. You can’t do it just by keeping a monitoring post. It’s no good just to measure the level of radiation in the air. Whiz in by car, take a measurement, it’s high, it’s low – that’s not the point. We need to know what kind of radioactive materials are escaping, and where they are going – they don’t have a system in place for doing that now.

IF you want to kill part of your body then radiation is a good thing. Because it kills your body parts.
That is basically what Coulter is saying, and it is technically correct. At least according to the standards of current western 'health care' cancer treatment that also causes cancer.

[Neuro]

Small doses of ionizing radiation probably is good for you. The damage it creates triggers DNA repair mechanisms in the cell. The question really is at what level the body is not able to keep up, and it becomes a disadvantage for your life. Nuclear war is good for cockroaches anyway...

"The radiation level in Tokyo stood at 8 microroentgen an hour earlier on Thursday, while Wednesday saw the figure climb to 15-30 microroentgen. This poses no threat to human health, referring to St.Petersburg’s granite embankments, where 44 microroentgen-per-hour radiation levels are not uncommon."

I spent my childhood sitting on St. Petersburg granite, the entire city is built from it. We heard talk about how radioactive it was but it is a fact of life there. There are spots in Kyrgyzstan where one can lie down for a few hours and ruin their health but if you lie a few meters away from there, nothing would happen.

BBC News: We should stop running away from radiation (http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-12860842)

Over-reaction
On the 16th anniversary of Chernobyl, the Swedish radiation authorities, writing in the Stockholm daily Dagens Nyheter, admitted over-reacting by setting the safety level too low and condemning 78% of all reindeer meat unnecessarily, and at great cost.

Unfortunately, the Japanese seem to be repeating the mistake. On 23 March they advised that children should not drink tap water in Tokyo...

People worry about radiation because they cannot feel it. However, nature has a solution - in recent years it has been found that living cells replace and mend themselves in various ways to recover from a dose of radiation.

These clever mechanisms kick in within hours and rarely fail, except when they are overloaded - as at Chernobyl, where most of the emergency workers who received a dose greater than 4,000 mSv over a few hours died within weeks.

Some might ask whether I would accept radioactive waste buried 100 metres under my own house?”

However, patients receiving a course of radiotherapy usually get a dose of more than 20,000 mSv to vital healthy tissue close to the treated tumour.

I call Bullshit on BBC's cancer treatment levels (or they are talking of some specialized beam treatment). Others say the cancer patient dose is not 20,000 but 20 mSv (and even at 20mSv the treatment is barbaric).
http://www.diagnosticimaging.com/conference-reports/rsna2010/content/article/113619/1746553

The UCSF research group found that the mean annual effective dose for cancer patients rose from 8 mSv in 1994 to 19.5 mSv in 2008. During the same 14-year period, the annual effective dose for non-cancer patients increased from 4 mSv to 5 mSv,

Guardian UK, March 21, 2011 George [Lord] Monbiot: Why Fukushima made me stop worrying and love nuclear power (http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2011/mar/21/pro-nuclear-japan-fukushima)

You will not be surprised to hear that the events in Japan have changed my view of nuclear power. You will be surprised to hear how they have changed it. As a result of the disaster at Fukushima, I am no longer nuclear-neutral. I now support the technology...

Some greens have wildly exaggerated the dangers of radioactive pollution...

Yes, I still loathe the liars who run the nuclear industry. Yes, I would prefer to see the entire sector shut down, if there were harmless alternatives. But there are no ideal solutions. Every energy technology carries a cost; so does the absence of energy technologies. Atomic energy has just been subjected to one of the harshest of possible tests, and the impact on people and the planet has been small. The crisis at Fukushima has converted me to the cause of nuclear power.

[Neuro]

Lord Monbiot is an idiot. He claims that since no-one has died yet of radiation from the Japanese nuclear plants, it is safer than for instance coal. Further his main claim of the danger of coal is the global warming it causes. He has no idea how big this disaster is ultimately going to be, and how many will die, further the economic impact of having a large part of Japan uninhabitable, for generations, is not mentioned. I believe it is entirely possible that this disaster may end up being at least one magnitude greater than Chernobyl, in an area which is far more densely populated. It was claimed in a book that about one million people have do far died from radiation effects of the Chernobyl disaster. I think that may be an exaggerated number, let's say it's 100.000. But the added mortality of higher radiation exposure is not linear, it is more akin to an exponential. So ten times the released radiation in a similar size population, may give a mortality that are 50 times higher, and if the exposed population is ten times as big, we are talking about 50 million dead... This is the death of Japan, because the rest of the population would probably be sick, apart from the most distant parts of Japan with no economic power...Burning of coal could never do anything like this!
