Most blood-suckers are Democrats.
Open the books and, if it happened, shoot the guilty.
I think there is some island in some NY bay, and the nearest town to that is LYME.
And on that island —it’s about 300 meters offshore— they used to do all manner of bio warfare stuff.
I read about it a long time ago, though.
First RoundUp, then ticks, what’s DoD going to come up w/next?
Our domestic enemies’ House of Representatives now needs to investigate those incendiary bat bombs we (allegedly) didn’t drop on Japan.

“The 5,300-year-old ice mummy dubbed Ötzi, discovered in the Eastern Alps about 20 years ago, appears to have had the oldest known case of Lyme disease, new genetic analysis has revealed.”
So there we have it. Not only did the DoD create Lyme Disease, they used their time machine to go back and infect Otzi.
If the first step wasn’t a congressional subpoena to the author to appear before Congress with proof of the accusation... Well, it’s a liberal, so of course, random accusation requires the DOD to prove a negative.. When they reply there was no such program, the conspiracy nuts will claim coverup.
I think the worst outcome will be the DOD replying that there was some investigation for ticks as a vector for bio warfare, but of course deny using the bacteria that causes Lyme Disease.
What the hell is wrong with Chris Smith? This is the dumbest pile of crap ever
I lost a beautiful black lab to Lyme disease. I now keep a close eye out for ticks. They are getting bad in SW PA.
Little known fact: Bram Stoker grew up next to a Democratic family and based his famous book on them.
My father used to laugh at my mom when she claimed that the CIA used to spray pathogens in tunnels and on buses to learn how bioagents can be spread.
Until the day it turned out to be true.
Did Pentagon turn ticks into bioweapons that spread Lyme Disease? N.J. congressman wants answers.
t sounds like the plot for a science fiction movie: A government agency decides to use ticks and other insects to spread disease and kill its enemies, only the ticks got out and infected the country’s residents itself.
New Jersey Rep. Chris Smith says that may not be too far-fetched.
He’s won approval from the House to have the Defense Department’s inspector general investigate whether the Pentagon actually looked at using ticks stuffed with pathogens as bioweapons during the height of the Cold War beginning in the 1950s.
He said several books and articles pinned the blame on the Pentagon, and perhaps some of the ticks and insects got out and helped to spread illnesses, most notably Lyme disease.
“If this isn’t true, let’s put it to rest,” said Smith, R-4th Dist. “For the sake of public health we should demand these answers.”
