Court Rules Autism Not Caused By Childhood Vaccine
wiredog writes "From The Washington Post comes word that three special masters have decided that MMR vaccines do not cause autism. 'Special master George Hastings said the parents ... had "been misled by physicians who are guilty, in my view, of gross medical misjudgment." ... "the evidence advanced by the petitioners has fallen far short of demonstrating ... a link."'
Well, you're not blind, are you? Proof enough.
I'm on the losing end of this argument, but I have long believed that special courts such as this one are unconstitutional usurpations of Article 2 courts which have "the Judicial power" and that power cannot be passed onto special courts whose purview is less than the entire judicial power. While this argument is perhaps a century or two too late, unconstitutional acts are still unconstitutional, despite centuries of adherence to them. The stack of people who will disagree with this comment is likely huge, but just because we've always had "Bankruptcy" Courts doesn't mean that their existence directly contradicts the clear meaning of Article 2 which stated that the judicial power would go to the Supreme Court and such inferior courts as Congress shall from time to time create. Yes, Congress could make no courts. But, ANY court created must possess the ENTIRE judicial power and not be a limited or "special" court. When you see "special court", read "unconstitutional court."
