from a letter to the editor. This is what someone had heard while waiting in line at a convenience store. “It only attacks people who are afraid of it. I have no fear of it at all and live my life as I always have.” Another customer backed her up, calling the whole thing a “total hoax.”

Perhaps some of the stupid will be removed from our country? I don't know what else to say about all of this.

He would tell people who had cancer that it was their negative mental state to blame.

He died of cancer.

And yes, he was a hardcore Limbaugh Republican.
