Possible Link Between Morgellons Disease and Genetically Modified Food?!?

I’ve been following the stories of Morgellons disease closely because it was, until recently, considered by Western Medicine, to be part of a mass delusion. The idea that just the perception of suffering from an unknown disease could spread amongst a population of educated individuals intrigued me because something about it just didn’t fit.
Acording to an article I just came across:
Morgellons Disease was first described when a woman’s 3 year old son developed rashes and intensely itchy sores which produced weird multicolor fibers emerging from his skin. She put up a website about the condition in 2001 and named it “Morgellons Disease” after a 17th century report of a similar affliction.
Common symptoms include the sensation of crawling beneath the skin, the growth of multi colored fibers from leasons and scabs that have formed in the skin. Some have even reported inexplicable hair loss, loss of visual acuity, and loss of the sense of smell. In addition to these, lets call them physical symptoms, there are also many mental symptoms that are reported and are (for me) the most interesting. Things like short term memory loss, an inability to focus or concentrate, mood swings, confusion, depression, disorientation and other neurological problems such as clumsiness, stumbling while walking, and impeded speech. More symptoms can be found here.
As mentioned above, one of the most identifiable symptoms is the various colored fibers that appear to grow out of leasons in the skin. It was because of this that most western physicians concluded delusional parasitosis, when patients (or their parents in the cases of delusional parasitosis by proxy) would bring in to physicians fibers that they would claim were expelled from the skin.
Nearly any marking upon the skin, or small object or particle found on the person or their clothing, can be interpreted as evidence for the parasitic infestation, and sufferers commonly compulsively gather such “evidence” and then present it to medical professionals when seeking help.[1] This presenting of “evidence” is known as “the matchbox sign”.

So until recently it was nearly impossible to be taken seriously by a physician who, rather than look at the many symptoms that do present themselves, would dismiss the individual as delusional. This has caused Morgellons sufferers to be ridiculed and marginalized and have received very little help for their suffering as a result.
Recently the US Center for Disease Control has in fact begun a study in California, of a small number of sufferers so they have at least for now come to the conclusion that more information about this condition is needed.
We do not know the cause of this condition or whether this condition is new. CDC has received an increased number of inquires from persons who report similar symptoms; therefore, we are conducting an investigation to learn more about this unexplained dermopathy.

However, where the CDC was slow in their reaction to complaints from people, others have not been so slow to investigate the fibers that are produced. A recent article made the following claim.
A study of the fibers shows that they contain DNA from both a fungus and a bacterium which are used in the commercial preparation of genetically modified foods and non-food crops (such as cotton). The fibers themselves are primarily cellulose, which the human body cannot breakdown or manufacture.
It goes on to claim:
These fibers twist and twine, grow and divide. In short, living beneath the skin of people, they form parasitic lesions out of what should be non-living material but which, through the horror of genetic modification, has taken on the characteristics of a living thing.
According to the article, “some researchers say that every person they have tested has some level of Morgellon’s type pathology in their skin.”
An even more provocative finding is that biochemist Vitaly Citovsky discovered that the fibers contain a substance called “Agrobacterium,” which, according to New Scientist, is “used commercially to produce genetically-modified plants.” Could GM plants be “causing a new human disease?”

Lastly, it is also worth mentioning that most Morgellons sufferers allegedly test positive for lime disease. It could be that lime disease affects our immune system in such a way as to make one more susceptible to whatever causes Morgellons. However, it seems strange to me that while physicians were completely discounting Morgellons as a mass delusion one could still find information about the apparent link with lime disease. It is possible that such a claim could be used to cover-up these apparent links with genetically modified food and create plausible deniability.

Ok so I had to post this because it made a point very eloquantly..
(taken from www.whatreallyhappened.com)
This is just one example of how corporations and organizations with vested financial interests are lobbying as hard as they can to get the bailout passed through Congress. already we are getting reports that public relations phone banks are in operation flooding congressional offices with phone calls pretending to be from real constituents to trick congresscritters into believing there is real grass-roots support for this gigantic rip-off. With $700 billion at stake, spending a few million now to hire professional liars and deceivers to sell your snake oil is a logical step so long as you don;t have any moral qualms about it!
THE ONLY THING THAT WILL HOLD THESE SWINDLERS AT BAY IS FOR YOU TO GET IN THE FACE OF YOUR CONGRESSCRITTERS TODAY AND TOMORROW AND SCREAM AT THEM THAT YOU OPPOSE THIS BAILOUT.
Remind them of the “nookular option”. Promise them that if the bailout passes, that you will vote out all incumbents for the next three elections. Promise them that if the bailout passes, you will withdraw all your money from your bank accounts and urge your friends to do the same.
Remind them that passing this legislation contrary to the will of the real people (not the PR created fakes) proves we have taxation without representation, and remind them you were taught in the public schools that taxation without representation is just cause to kick out the government.
Folks, this is a grab for $5000 (or more) directly out of your pocket. Imagine that the money is in your pocket and someone is trying to take it. How hard would you might back? THAT is how hard you have to work to stop this massive theft of YOUR money to give to people already so rich they cannot remember how many homes they own!
THIS IS THE BIG FIGHT! THIS IS FOR ALL THE MARBLES! IF YOU DO NOT GET ACTIVE AND INVOLVED NOW HISTORY WILL FORGET YOU EVER EXISTED, AND DESERVEDLY SO!
