Reply to Flu - A Little Walk Down Memory Lane in Politics JoeUser Forums

I decided against the H1N1 vac for my kids (available at our county fairgrounds today) because of the mercury....I know, I know...we get mercury in our environment all the time....I can't do anything about mercury in water, air, food, etc....but I can keep it from being directly injected into my child. The mist isn't available yet so by the time it is...like you said....too late. <span style="font-si

I hear you on the being led thing. What a perfect metaphor for life. I can't be led by any man that is not smarter, faster, and more of a man than I am...hahaha...seriously, I couldn't be married to a girly man. Or a man who can't defend his family with his bare hands if necessary.... On the other hand, Type A, in your face men (while attractive in romance novels) would only last until they g

Reply to The H1N1 Scare & Fear in Current Events JoeUser Forums

[quote]I think the reason young people have been disporportionately affected by H1N1 is fairly straightforward - they were not here for the H1N1 outbreak of 1976 & therefore have no specific immunity. Those of us who were around in '76 had sufficient exposure to acquire some degree of immunity; cases of H1N1 in folks over 40 have been typical for any garden variety flu as a result.[/quote] Yeah, I have research

Maybe they should call it the "just showing up" award. Leauki, welcome to the mentality that is pervasive in our country ever since this nobody became a self-proclaimed, and later mass proclaimed, somebody. It all seems like Much Ado About Nothing.

Remember back before the election? When people worried about Obama's level of experience? (Well, with anything besides voting to kill live born abortions and voting present? He was actually good at those things.) Turns out the worriers were right. He really is clueless. The General, in his life-time professional milita

What if one of the kids has an accident? Matt Lauer is a dufus. This is ridiculous. The state of MI told them that if any kid comes over to play and their parents aren't home its day care. What a load.

[quote]He wasn't "eloquent" or "sincere"[/quote] It read that way to me. I didn't say he wasn't acting, but then I can't read him mind so have to go on what I see. In the end I don't think it matters if he was sincere or flip. The Dems have enough votes to push this through and they may well do it.

I think the reason is because as "bad" as the gov may be, it is made up of individuals...and on some level Americans hope (BO doesn't own the word), people will buck up and do the right thing.
