Calling out....EARTH TO ALL YOU DRONES...this pandemic crap is all a big diversion to take our minds off of what Obama is doing to our country. Here ya go, I'll prove it.

last winter, about 36,000 Americans died from the flu. In fact, 36,000 flu deaths in America is an average of how many Americans die every year from the flu.
My question is this. While the flu last year was spreading all over the place and hundreds of Americans were dying EVER DAY from it, where was the big PANDEMIC ALERT for that?
Now we have this so called swine flu pandemic, about 20 Americans have become ill from it, only one needed hospitalization because of it, but yet the MEDIA is going crazy with reporting on it, ALERT ALERT WARNING WARNING get prepared, we're all going to die....
What a freakin bunch of crap all this is.
In the mean time, Obama yesterday was out GOLFING!
You're all a bunch of FOOLISH SUCKERS.-

Wow!

That was some proof!
And the FOOLISH SUCKERS made the argument complete!
Silly people will say that past flu viruses are in the flu vaccine library;
they don't represent an epidemic threat;
- whereas a new strain freshly mutated to humans
would represent an illness we are not prepared for,
- and so we prepare before people start dropping like 1918 .
But that is just crazy talk .
Seriously, the newspapers and the web and the radio pick up on what people
are afraid of, and feed it back; there was more coverage than there needed to be,
- but that does not mean it is not serious.
Only that the world is quiet of late.
What terror color code are we at , anyway? -

--Oil prices fell for a second straight day Tuesday on fears that the outbreak of swine flu would delay an economic recovery and further dampen energy demand.
Fears of pandemics have slowed the global economy in the past and officials with the World Health Organization, while raising alert levels Monday, warned against overreacting.
A global economic downturn has already led to a severe tumble in crude prices. A barrel of oil cost about $150 less than a year ago.
**Yeah, 4thChance. This "pandemic crap" would REEAAALLY benefit Obama. ROTFLMAO. Chickenhawk cons for 8 years and now chicken little cons. LMAO ;-p

We are being falsely warned of a coming pandemic, and all you have is that you're worried about how that's effecting oil prices. Ahahahahahah!!!

But what have you to say

except the stuff the country has yawned at for months?
Wouldn't a clever Dem conspiracy keep you
forever on the talking points of
- the birth certificate
- the marxist plot
- the one-world plot
- the destroy-america plot
- and then back to his secret kenyan birth?
Jovial said yesterday,
the pandemic is a plot by Republican's,
to change the subject from torture.
I didn't buy that either;
but at least it would make a credible movie plot.

Don't thousands of people die from the regular flu? What's special this time around?
Reply
Generally, people who die from influenza are older people or those who already have respiratory problems. They end up dying of pneumonia. But this time around, the people who died in Mexico are younger. They are apparently healthy people in their 20s, 30s and 40s. That's a big deal. When a virus seems to preferentially affect healthy people, it suggests its a new virus and is causing an overreaction of the immune response. That's what happened with bird flu as well.-

Well explained.

In the Great Influenza epidemic of 1918,
it did that; killed the young and health more often than the old.
If you google it you can see old photos of U.S. cities,
where everyone is wearing those masks.
I had no idea all that occurred in our country before.
