Bush to screen population for mental illness
EXTREMELY URGENT! ACTION ALERT!!!
(excerpt)
They already started a dry run here in Queens, NYC....we just got notices in our mailboxes...and the law is not even passed !!...(I kid you, not) since this dry run is NOT mandatory they are offering bribes of $100 cash and a free "exam" that is "valued at" or worth $300 supposedly.
Any one who believes that this is "New Freedom Commission Initiatve" should have their head examined, key word being FREEDOM. At least they are consistent with the go'vt oxy-moron theme.
The new world order has already removed effective vitamin supplements from the EU...they, the drug pharms, are drooling at the thought of what they can do here next....
DON'T YOU LET THEM!
NOW IS YOUR CHANCE....
speak out now...
How long do you think it would take for some futuristic prez, like H. Clinton, to declare such people insane and in need of drug treatment?
Does ANY sane person want more gov't in their life?

The U.S. House of Representatives', Appropriations Committee, approved funding of the President's "New Freedom Commission Initiative" that includes plan to screen all U.S. citizens for mental illness!!!!!
On July 14th, the House Appropriations Committee approved $20 million in new federal dollars to begin implementation of the plans set forth by the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health (NFC) to get every man, woman and child in America "screened" for "mental illness."
This campaign for national mental health "screening" will result in millions more Americans being diagnosed with fraudulent and unscientific mental "disorders", and prescribed dangerous and deadly psychiatric drugs.
Nationwide implementation of the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health's plan is the beginning of a Big Brother, "Brave New World" should the U.S. Senate agree with House to fund this.
More details about the plan and its dangerous consequences are at bottom of this email, but here is what all of us need to do: We, you, me, all of us, must tell Congress and the White House: NO MENTAL SCREENINGS FOR AMERICANS AND NO FUNDING FOR THIS PLAN!
WHO TO CALL AND WHAT TO DO:
1) Call the White House: 202-456-1111
2) Call Speaker of the House, Rep. Hastert: 202-225-2976
3) Call the Senate Leader, Senator Frist: 202-224-3344
4) Call the House Education and Workforce Committee Chairman John Boehner at 202-225-6205
5) Call the Senate Health, Education, Labor, and Pensions Committee Chairman
Judd Gregg at 202-224-3324
Tell them you oppose any federal, state, or local plans for universal mental health screening. Tell them to STOP funding this New Freedom Commission on Mental Health plan in the Labor/Health and Human Services appropriations bill.
These calls are fast and brief. The aide who answers will take your message and forward it on. It's important that there are large numbers of calls, so please do this and get other to do so as well.
Additional actions to take:
1) Call your own Members of Congress (go to http://www.congress.org)
2) Alert your state legislators and oppose any school board initiatives to add psychiatric screening programs.
3) Support the Child Medication Act (S. 1390) currently stalled in the Senate by Senator Edward Kennedy - This legislation prohibits schools from coercing parents to place their children on psychiatric medications that are on the controlled substances list. Senator Kennedy, with large support from pharmaceutical companies, has not let this very modest proposal even receive a hearing, saying that it needs more study. Senator Kennedy (202-224-4543) as well as Senator Gregg (202-224-3324) the Committee chairman, and Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (202-224-3344) need to hear from the public.
4) Check to see if your state has a provision in state special education law that prohibits a school district from overriding parental refusal to submit their child to a special education or mental health evaluation. If yes, alert other parents, and if not, work for one.
Thank you for yout help on this urgent matter.

More Details:
The Commission based its entire findings on the definition of mental illness as defined by psychiatry's billing bible, the American Psychiatric Association's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM).
The methods of mental health "screening" recommended by the New Freedom Commission are lists of arbitrary questions based on this DSM. If this "sweeping mental health initiative" is implemented, millions more Americans will certainly be diagnosed and drugged given the subjective diagnoses.
FACTS:
Ø The New Freedom Commission on Mental Health's report states that "mental illnesses are shockingly common," but neglects to address or even mention the fact that there is no medical or scientific means by which to diagnose mental "illnesses."
Psychiatrists and mental health proponents promote psychiatric "disorders" as a disease, or an illness that can be diagnosed in the same manner as real physical illness. This is a fraud. There are no blood tests, brain scans or chemical imbalance tests to validate any mental disorder as an illness or "disease." With no scientific/medical criteria to substantiate these claims, anyone could be diagnosed as mentally ill based solely on a checklist of behaviors.
Ø The DSM contains hundreds of psychiatric mental "disorders" which are a list of behavioral symptoms that are literally voted into existence and inserted into the DSM. Such diagnoses include "Caffeine-Related Disorder," "Mathematics Disorder," "Disorder of Written Expression," and the all-encompassing "Phase of Life Problem." These "disorders" are simply a classification of symptoms that are drastically different from, and foreign to, anything in medicine.
Ø The New Freedom Commission is blatantly promoting the coercive and manipulative tactics that have led to millions of children being falsely labeled with mental disorders in our public schools. Schools have become mental health clinics where children are diagnosed based on subjective questionnaires, instead of given proven educational solutions. This fact was substantiated by a report from the President's Commission on Excellence in Special Education, which found that 2.4 million children had been diagnosed with mental "disorders" and placed in Special Education, when in fact these children had simply not been taught to read.
Ø The issue of coerced child drugging in public schools has become so prevalent that the U.S. House of Representatives passed the Child Medication Safety Act in May 2003, to prevent schools from forcing a parent to drug their child as a condition of attending school.
Ø Due to psychiatric influence, parents have been reported to Child Protective Services and charged with medical neglect for refusing to give their child a psychiatric drug, such as those currently under investigation for causing suicidal reactions. Parents have been charged with "medical neglect" for refusing psychiatric treatment - despite the fact that there is no scientific proof that there is anything medically wrong with the child.
Ø In a recent report by Allen Jones, a former investigator in the Pennsylvania Office of Inspector General (OIG), Bureau of Special Investigations, condemning the New Freedom Commission (NFC), he states, "Despite a nearly 500% increase in American children being prescribed mental health drugs during the past 6 years, the New Freedom Commission on Mental Health found that not enough adolescents are benefiting from mental health treatment. The NFC recommendations prominently call for mandatory mental health screening for all high school students, with follow-up 'treatment' as required - this means more kids on mind-altering and potentially lethal psychiatric drugs."
