Once again President Bush is giving me one more reason to be totally pissed at how he's running his presidency. Yesterday he asked congress for $7.1 Billion to prepare for the minute chance of an Avian Flu Pandemic. A disease that has killed only 120 people in the whole freakin' world so far. They're all foaming at the mouth for a world-wide diaster. Well, we saw how well the government handled a real disaster when hurrican Katrina hit. They want to stockpile enough vaccine for every American. Last I heard, health people were scrambling to create a vaccine. Does anybody remember last year's flu vaccine shortage? We were all going to get the flu since we hadn't been vaccinated and we were all going to die! Well, I didn't get the flu, nor did I or anyone I know die.
How about being worried about a real health scare? Illegal Mexicans are bringing all sorts of disease into the country with them:
How about being worried about a real health scare? Illegal Mexicans are bringing all sorts of disease into the country with them:
...many illegal aliens harbor fatal diseases that American medicine fought and vanquished long ago, such as drug-resistant tuberculosis, malaria, leprosy, plague, polio, dengue, and Chagas disease.
If you're really so worried about the health of Americans, stop the flow of illegals into this country.
