Party of Swine [flu]
Posted by Jill | 11:22 PM
You simply must go read this post at The Political Carnival. We have an expanding swine flu epidemic that's going worldwide faster than Susan Boyle's video, and not only are the Republicans filibustering the President's HHS nominee, Kathleen Sibelius over abortion rights, but so-called "moderate" Susan Collins is still bragging about cutting pandemic flu preparations from the stimulus bill.

I know -- let's make sure that NO state whose GOP Senators voted against flu preparation gets any supplies of Tamiflu. Nothing like watching their loved ones die in front of them to make people wake up and realize that this is what happens when you decide that government shouldn't do anything for people.

Assholes. Every last one of them.

publicity is the key. i hate the bastards as much as anybody else but i cannot bring myself to have them die of disease. rick perry can go all galt and shit, but, even absent a CDC and homesec presence, he's not the bastard who would be sickened and put in danger for his life.

perry, and those like collins, all have their own health care wrapped up in a government ribbon. the mantra they chant is:

"I got mine. Fuck. You."

it also wouldn't begin to teach them a lesson. if they couldn't learn from an eight year disaster that they are corrupt and idiotic fools who couldn't run a hot dog cart, much less a government, then they are pretty much incapable of learning jack shit.
