The Obligatory Swine Flu Post

The family pediatrician, Dr. Britt, once said about the potential pandemic bird flu, "It's not if, it's when." We all need to be prepared for a catastrophic event, and hopefully the hype about Swine Flu is just hype. Forever fighting cynicism, I can't help but think of the Swine Flu as the Capitalist Pig Flu and a great, fearless leader needs to seize an opportunity in this crisis and quickly initiate change...perhaps promote ram nationalized medicine or something. Quick...Urgent...Stimulus ....Ouick.
