Mueller lies his ever loving ass off before Congress today re anthrax. [View All]

[EFerrari]

He was trying to snow the House Judiciary Committee on the nature of the mailed anthrax -- in specific, on how all that silica got into the anthrax that the FBI can't account for.

"That (finding regarding the silica content of the anthrax) was vetted by scientists around the country."

Well, NO, Mr. Mueller. It has NOT been vetted. There are NO experts unconnected with your "investigation" that have come out in approval of FBI "science".

The FBI says the silica was naturally occurring inside the spores AND they haven't been able to duplicate the anthrax sent in the mailings.

In other words, they haven't been able to process anthrax the way they claim Bruce Ivins did. If, as they claim, the high silica content in the mailed anthrax is a natural result and not a result of processing, why couldn't they duplicate the process?

How does THAT work?

And, they've made no mention of the studies that show that ADDITIVES can penetrate the spores and locate themselves inside. So, someone could process anthrax AND there would be high levels of silica INSIDE OF THE SPORES and, it would NOT be naturally occurring.

What total bullshit. Even a science adverse person like me can see the smoke blowing.

Today, Mueller blew Conyers off. He said, I'll get back to you.

The FBI has two main arguments. Their "science" about the anthrax, which seems to be bullshit, and that Bruce Ivins had mental health issues. Well, no one is vetting their science and Bruce Ivins had a 35 year career which was very successful and during which he managed his stuff just fine -- until the FBI started stalking him.

Do you feel safer now?

:grr:
