[1] – 9/19/2013 – “Americans love to fight, traditionally”
“All real Americans love the sting and clash of battle…When you, here, everyone of you, were kids, you all admired the champion marble player, the fastest runner, the toughest boxer, the big league ball players, and the All-American football players”
“Americans love a winner”
“Americans will not tolerate a loser”
– General George S. Patton, Jr., June.5, 1944
The above might as well be Greek to Dr. David H. Gorski a/k/a “Orac”
He’s the epitome of the word “loser”
Indeed, “Orac” described his work-place nemesis as “user hostile”
After 5 years, he still didn’t fully understand much of it, and he claims he’s not exactly computer illiterate
Gorski is that “guy” who couldn’t even find Burzynski’s publication:
[2] – 1997 – Burzynski. S.R. Antineoplastons. oncogenes and cancer
[3] – “Orac” batted the big “O” when he tried to find “the scientific rationale to expect that” antineoplastons “might have antitumor activity”
[4] – Gorski was geniusless when it came to finding “which genes are targeted by antineoplastons,“ proving that he really does NOT know Burzynski’s personalized gene-targeted therapy
In fairness, I will point out that he hasn’t put the time in to learn all the ins and outs of the system …
He pontidefecates about phase II clinical trials when his name isn’t even on a phase 2 trial, too
[5] – 9/19/2013 – He’s the “guy” who’s “mystified” as to how Stanislaw Burzynski “has managed to keep practicing for 36 years after he first began treating patients with an unapproved (not ordinary) chemotherapeutic drug (the concoction of peptides purportedly isolated from blood and urine that Burzynski dubbed “antineoplastons” because of their alleged ability to inhibit the growth of cancer)”
This is not an issue unique to Gorski; I’ve discussed other cases like this, such as Bobby Blaskiewicz, who used his man-crush relationship with Gorski to appear on the Skeptic Canary Show; Davey James, who was only recently stripped of his license to practice in several states of mind; Adam Jacobs, who went so far as to use his business influence to alter his Dianthus Mediclueless web-site in London to be more hack friendly, and an interventist who administered twerkpidity to posers who didn’t have common sense and defrauded minions for tens of millions of minutia
It’s a general problem
However, as far as doctors who should have been shut down a long time ago, “Orac” takes the cake
[6] – He has NOT yet figured out that Burzynski learned from the best
[7] – Who could do it better than someone like Dr. Michael A. Friedman, Associate Director, Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (CTEP), Division of Cancer Treatment (DCT), National Cancer Institute (NCI), Department of Health & Human Services (HHS), Public Health Service, National Institutes of Health (NIH) who Burzynski had to deal with:
“This is, as you point out, a most serious matter, and I was hoping that you could allay my concerns by showing me where they are unfounded“
“However, your letter conspicuously fails to address them“
“You also make reference to “numerous factual misstatements” but fail to identify any of them, much less provide documentation to show they are false”
Pg. 2
“I am glad that you plan to “thoroughly examine the accusations” I have made”
“I also eagerly await a substantiative response to the points raised in my letter of 4/20/1995”
After all, can we really take a person seriously, who claimed:
——————————————————————
[8] – 11/2/2012 – “Personally, having pored over Burzynski’s publications … “
——————————————————————
[9] – 5/8/2013 – “I’ve searched Burzynski’s publications … “
——————————————————————
[10] – 6/5/2013 – “ … I do know cancer science”
——————————————————————
Uhhhhhhh … yeah
But do you really know Burzynski’s cancer science when you did NOT even know:
“which genes are targeted by antineoplastons“?
Has “GOraCON” (“Orac” + @Gorskon) even read these ?

Volume 9 Issue 4 October 2007
We have conducted a total human gene array screen using the Affymetrix Human Genome plus 2.0 oligonucleotide arrays, for genes regulated by PG and a combination of PG and PN
gene TXNIP was up-regulated almost 5-fold with PG, and almost 120-fold using a combination of PG and PN
genes that are significantly up-regulated are CLDND1, ATF3, CASP5, TP53, TRIB3, and UNC5B
Genes that were down-regulated include AKT2, ASPM, CDCA8
(caspase 5, p53, netrin receptor) and AKT pathway (AKT2, TRB3)

mRNAs 125a-5p and 125a-3p
mRNAs 125a-5p has recently been shown to be regulated by the epidermal growth factor receptor and to function as a tumor suppressor in lung cancer
It has also been shown that the over-expression of mRNA 125a or mRNA 125b caused reduced migration and invasion of SKBR3 breast cancer cells

Cancer care: Is the system “in crisis” ?
The Institute of Medicine, just in case you’re like “Orac” and have NOT yet figured it out, “the system” has been “in crisis” since the Gubment “forgot” who they are here to serve
[18] – Gorsi, maybe you can explain to The Institute of Medicine why the Cancer care system is “in crisis” because M.D.’s with Ph.D’s who hold positions “at an NCI-designated comprehensive cancer center,”are responsible for massive fact-checking #FAILS
What did you do, Gorski ?
Phone It in again ?
