“For those of us who strongly oppose lining up for a 'trust-us-we-know-what's-best-for-you' shot, one tried and true method of self-protecting against the flu (H1N1 or other) is to gargle with saltwater, and whiff saline nasal spray, both 3 x daily during flu season.”

“* Democrat of New Jersey, said: “I regret that the language was the same. I did not know it was.” He said he got his statement from his staff and “did not know where they got the information from.”

* Representatives Blaine Luetkemeyer of Missouri and Joe Wilson of South Carolina, both Republicans, said: “One of the reasons I have long supported the U.S. biotechnology industry is that it is a homegrown success story that has been an engine of job creation ....

---- It probably will help - just not for the average working class citizen. ----”

“.... “Don’t we have an obligation to tell physicians about this?” (regarding known bad outcomes for patients) Franklin says he asked his manager, Phil Magistro. His boss tried to reassure him, Franklin says.

“I think Obama often takes his cues from the people.
Time after time, I've observed actions by the President that correspond with the rising voice of everyday Americans.
But then again, borrowing from Dan Froomkin's astute observation, "... Obama's supporters aren't giving him even rudimentary political cover."
And when you add to that the media's relentless "narcotizing" effect of the citizenry, how can anyone expect magnificent "change".
I have been an outspoken critic all along of some of the people Obama has appointed, but all the same, I still hold tight to the intent that Obama brought with him in his campaign and continue to believe that he is our best and brightest hope.
As it has been demonstrated repeatedly on these and other threads, It's just so much easier to be a sniveling armchair critic and expect someone else to get the job done, than it is to be forcefully and tenaciously involved in the "change" we seek.
And for that, I'm more disappointed in us, than him.”
