WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama pledged "great vigilance" in confronting the swine flu outbreak Wednesday night as it began hitting home across the U.S. The outbreak spread to 11 states and closed schools amid confirmation of the first U.S. death - a Mexican toddler who visited Texas with his family - and the confinement of dozens of Marines after one came down with the disease in California.
He praised the Bush administration for making preparations for such a crisis, including stockpiling 50 million doses of antiviral medications.
"Great vigilance," huh?
I feel better knowing someone is watching. We'll know in a few days if all the watching BO will be doing helped or not.
Seriously? How is this a partisan issue. Any party would likely handle this situation in a similar way.
Hey since we blamed a hurricane on Bush, do we get to blame the flu on Obama? :lol:

Yet, make NO mistake that the partisan hacks will play the pandemic to the hilt.
The logical person knows that Obama is no more responsible for a pandemic hitting the US than President Bush was for a hurricane laying waste to the Gulf Coast.
Yet, the partisans zealots will make every attempt to spin, manipulate, and maliciously try to lay the blame on their counter-egos, as their counter-egos defend and justify.
Myself, I just see these zealots as two-sides of the same bad-penny.
I'm gonna grab some popcorn and watch the party absurdities begin.

Are you doing your don quixote impression today?
I think Obama's response thus far to a mild flu, is more than "responsive" and "Adequete" but seems to be a bit overboard. But hey. don't let me stop you attacking dem windmills. :lol:

Good for you. Pack your bags and go on that trip to Mexico City. Remember not to pack a mask.
Well let's just wait and see how Obama handles this. So far, so good in my estimation, so let's hope this admin does not drop the ball, as it does seem this virus is highly contageous.
The Virus is smaller than the masks, as in it will pass right through.
and the flu is a mild one.

The panic is over. You can come out of the bunker. :2wave:

I guess then you believe that Obama handled the outbreak in a better fashion than Bush responded to Katrina?

Yes, in Global America, ( the New World Order), any party would in fact induce panic, but in a partisan manner so as to control the populace in the ways in which that party wishes to guide us all to prosperity and freedom....OH,...and in good health,and free from global warming,and West Nile Crocodiles, and global threats like the Korean midget...OH, OH, OH, and bad grades in school...and, and, and, etc. etc. etc.

Really? How does "This is a cause for concern, not for alarm" a scare tactic from the WH? It's a way of covering their asses later in case it does turn bad, but in now way is the WH saying "everyone is going to die, go get plastic wrap and duct tape and lock yourself in your house. The germs can't get you that way"

No, the VP is just telling people to avoid all public transportation now.
I think that they use these almost daily panic inducements, to distract us from whats really going on, like pork barrel spending, lineing the pockets of the wealthy but inept, Affirmative action, globalism, police state governance, wars for oil, junk science, etc, and other TRUELY scarry dung (the least of which they are concerned about...it doen`t pay as well...no pork).
