Boy, I wonder how much the drug companies are paying the people that have actually written this latest crap about how mercury is NOT harmful. Or maybe it is the dental association...or the medical association. Or maybe all of them together.
Try this out. It might make you sick to view it.

In case you don't already know, mercury is a component in flu shots and vaccines...vaccines that they shoot brand new babies full of. Then they wonder why so many children now have autism.

Amen!
Da Bastids...... 
I had a jar of mercury once when I was a kid....I would run it into my hand, drop a dime in it, and marvel at how shiny and new the dime looked.

Did you not hear/read that lobbying is higher than ever?
The economy is slowly sinking even deeper, while lobbyists (and therefore the companies that back them) spend even MORE money in DC.
No wonder the government can't make any decisions.... 
At least not any that would actually be good for the people.... 
The FDA is part of the government....
So there....  
oh, and what the heck... an extra "smokey" for the FDA...

Popular Skeptic or maybe it was American skeptic magazine did an article about this last year and the misinformation and misunderstandings about the "mercury" in vaccines.
Since you have your comments closed I doubt you'll post an opposing view.

Good for you, you allowed my post. I don't Pretend to be an authority but here's a link that might be of interest and an excerpt.

Mercury, Thimerosal, and the Potential for Harm
Science has told us unequivocally that mercury is bad for our bodies. In sufficient doses, mercury kills cells that it contacts, causes neurological damage in humans and other animals, and generally wreaks havoc on living things. Yet since the 1930s, thimerosal has been used as a preservative in vaccines.2 One of the breakdown products of thimerosal is ethylmercury, which is an organic form of mercury. Public concern about thimerosal is certainly understandable, but does this mean that concern about the link between vaccines and autism is justified as well? In a word, no. Mercury might do a number of nasty things to the human body, and concern about it is therefore justified, but that does not mean it causes autism.
Ethylmercury is not the same thing as its cousin, methylmercury. Cumulative and high doses of methylmercury can produce renal and neurologic damage. It can build up in the brain and stay in the body for a long time. Ethylmercury is more, well, mercurial. It is expelled rapidly from the body and it does not accumulate. Nevertheless, guidelines for the ingestion of ethylmercury were based on those for methylmercury. Around the same time these guidelines were formalized, children were receiving more vaccines that contained thimerosal. For example, in the early 1990s the Haemophilus influenzae b and hepatitis B became staple features of the vaccine schedule for infants, which already included another thimerosal-containing vaccine (diphtheria tetanus and variants). Based on the very conservative guidelines established by the Environmental Protection Agency, it was concluded that by age two some children might be receiving excessive levels of ethylmercury when considered in the context of known risks of methylmercury exposure.3
Against this backdrop enter skyrocketing rates of autism diagnoses. In California, the Department of Developmental Services reported a 273 percent increase from 1987 to 1998 in the number of individuals served under the category of autism.4 Surely this increase in rates was caused by an environmental source, right? In 2001, the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Immunization Safety Review Committee held a public meeting to address the link between one environmental source — thimerosal — and autism. At the meeting, Mark Blaxill, a board member of a nonprofit organization dedicated to investigating the risks of mercury exposure, presented a graph showing the estimated cumulative dose of thimerosal to the estimated prevalence of autism in California.5 The increasing trend lines during the early 1990s were right on top of each other, about as close as you can get to perfect correlation in ecological data. Such orderly correlations are all that it takes to convince the uncritical eye.

According to what I have read, you can request Thimerasol free vaccinations. Thats what my clinic does, but you have to ask at least a week ahead of time, but at least we have to option.
