So you might die if you don't get the vaccine. It's a National Emergency. And yet, the government is flopping around. Jennifer LaRue of the Washington Post:
This Swine Flu harms younger people far more disproportionately than the regular flu. Go check out the charts at this link [h/t Instapundit] By the time the vaccinations get fully prepared, Swine Flu will have swept the country. People will either be dead or immune.
Dr. Donald Palmisano, former President of the American Medical Association and Director of The Coalition To Protect Patients Rights joined me and discussed the Health Care legislation, the AMA's support of it and much more. It is a must listen.
Hi guys, I see that you're having a discussion about weight loss [at MelissaClouthier.com]. It's not a burden to the website. Thought I'd share a couple thoughts and you guys can continue the discussion:
Overall impression: I agree with Krauthammer: President Obama talked for an hour about selling a program that will save money, make government more efficient and better, only the evil rich will be soaked, etc. As Krauthammer said, "None of the questions nicked him." Well, maybe the transparency one, but that wasn't really about the specifics of health care. Basically the president delivered platitudes, outright prevaricated and wasn't called on it, just like I expected.
Who really cares about a pudgy Surgeon General? Remember K. Everett Koop? He was lovable in his Little House On The Prairie, old timey Doctor sort of way. Was he the Supreme Master of Fitness? Uh, no. But that wasn't his job. His job, if a Surgeon General, even has a real job, was to explain, in simple terms, important health initiatives to the masses.
You know that impossible task, border control, is so incredibly daunting and shameful and racist and discriminatory and all..., but if America is swept with Swine Flu and thousands die, will our politically correct porous border still be morally defensible? From a "First, Do No Harm" perspective America's current border policy seems, well, harmful.
I can't believe that Rachel Lucas hasn't smacked this English bottom, but since she's hasn't and is instead focusing on Obama's military aspirations, I will (smack the English, fat bottom).
