Or is it? Since the Government can’t produce the vaccine now, it seems to have fallen off the national radar. So, I wonder, is it an emergency as declared by BO, or not? Or is this a view of things to come under Obama Care?

So, should he spend money on the problem, or will conservatives scream that their rights are being taken away, and the government is taking over vaccination care and so on?

Can I read that as a “No”, there isn’t a National Emergency anymore.

Yorkshire, from what I’ve read, it is the private contractors who are making the H1N1, who promised delivery dates that they did not meet. Let’s place the blame where it belongs. It’s called accountability!

Thanks Perry, I’ll mark you down as there is no National Emergency also.

No, Yorkshire, you divert. My point again is that the accountability for the H1N1 vaccine shortfall goes to the private manufacturers who made scheduling promises that they did not keep. Why is it so difficult for you to accept that fact?

You have dodged my question twice now. Is H1N1 a national emergency or not??? BO declared it was and then just left it at that. The manufacturers have not delivered, and BO has sort of swept it under the rug. The compliant MSM doesn’t run gasping stories of deaths anymore. So, is it an emergency, or is it not? Just saying the vaccine is late is an excuse, not an answer to the problem. But BO does have enough to give it to the detainees at GITMO. Where’s our’s????

Well, that sounds bad… but it’s a tiny fraction of the Americans that die annually from a lack of health insurance… and 45K dead annually is way better than any attempt at fixing it, right?

Only if you want to bankrupt the country and make felons out of people who wish to make a free choice. Funny how “Abortion” is a “Choice”, but according to Nancy Pelosi you can not exercise that same free choice in deciding to get healthcare or not. Sounds a tad bit hypocritical if you ask me. I guess some choices are freer than others.
