Health of Cheney, Rehnquist, Ashcroft?

[Margaret Diann]

Get our leaders checked for autoimmune hemolytic anemia!

2-butoxyethanol is no respecter of persons

And the Walter Reed Army Medical Center said to me that the 'gulf war syndrome' vets were no more harmed than the general public....

OK, maybe the general population is at risk for harm from this cleaning and degreaser chemical, too!

We can thank the gulf war vets for bringing this to our attention. With all the millions of dollars of research they've done ... they don't know the cause.

But then, those with CF, CFIDS ... don't know the cause of the fatigue and other symptoms, either

Dick Cheney's "Shortness of Breath?"
What about Vice President Dick Cheney?s ?Shortness of Breath? that is not from heart or pulmonary effects? Shortness of breath is one of the signs of hemolytic anemia www.valdezlink.com/check.htm

So, if it is not being caused by the heart or pulmonary system ....
Could it be hemolytic anemia from a chemical such as I study ... that doesn't show up in the blood counts as doctors expect it to?

2-butoxyethanol is in a lot of things & even the public is at risk for harm. More info on the signs of hemolytic anemia

Hmm....

WM Rehnquist? thyroid tumor can be part of 2-butoxyethanol harm

Ashcroft? pancreatitis and gall bladder problems
can be part of 2-butoxyethanol harm

So is child leukemia

So is infertility - especially for men.

One vet asked me if infertility could be caused from the gas used in training.

My reply to this vet:
What kind of gas? What system of putting gas into a chamber was used?

I don't know about that; however, 2-butoxyethanol is in lots of spary systems ... in jet fuel???

It harms the testes & has been known to cause infertility

Have you had any urinalysis that show even trace blood?

Do you have FATIGUE? Do you remember when it hit?
What were you doing then?

His reply: "Can this gas cause infertility???
The gas that was used is CS gas or
orto-chlorobenzylidene- malononitrile

Please let me know, thanks?"

I put this in the search engine: orto-chlorobenzylidene- malononitrile,msds

found: http://www.tscm.com/advchemw2.pdf

It's 132 pages ... I'll look through it

Says several related compounds cause reproductive damage

The answer to your question appears to be, "yes" though indirectly addressed

Says they do not know about reproductive harm.

THE chemical you are looking for
CAS No 2698-41-1
You can take this CAS # & get more info on www.chemfinder.com


Do you remember such a time? Did you get sick then? Were you the only one, or did the whole group have the same experience? Can you contact two of the others in your group & ask if they have become sterile? You may have medical information that the military and scientists need.

If I hadn't spent so much time learning about this chemical, though, I wouldn't recognize the pattern.

If the USA doesn't know about the cancers, the birth defects caused by this chemical, then maybe it's because the USA doesn't want to know ... or the chemical companies are more powerful than EPA?

Carcenogenity? What do you think they are talking about in 409 Cleaner?

Lysol Tub 'n Tile has the complex version: 2-2-butoxyethanol
This was a favorite cleaning product for a grandma who now has been diagnosed with low red blood cell anemia and taking procrit shots for it; who has high blood sugar; high blood pressure; joint problems. She would have to be a pretty grouchy person now, too with difficulty concentrating and CNS damage.

Tobacco companies should check all those with lung cancer for other symptoms and realize that there is a chemical in common use these past 50+ years that causes tumors of the brain and lung cancer and lots of other things SIMULTANEOUSLY. What's found first is sort of irrelevant.

AH, except for the FATIGUE that shows up in 2.5 days

And even when someone isn't making enough red blood cells, & the fatigue shows up differently ... still the basic blood info looks OK

Other?
