Edited on Tue Oct-19-04 05:17 PM by in_cog_ni_to
Just reported on Air America. The congressional doctor supposedly told them that they should all have the flu shot because they're always around the public, hugging and shaking hands. What do you think about this? I think it's pretty shitty! NONE of them are in the "at risk" groups. Except Senator Byrd and any others who are elderly. These people should be ashamed. IMCPO.

6. I'm with you, Anti Bush.
There's no doubt in my mind that he has had a flu shot. I believe NOTHING he says. He's a pathological liar. He's incapable of telling the truth.

4. Thats
so sad here in Alabama they are threatening to put doctors in prison if they give shots to people that are not in the high risk groups. Theres that good ole double standard were so famous for here in the U.S.

7. Yeah, it's a weenie move
But, satisfying as it may be, you really don't want Congress laid up with the flu, do you? We could lose old coots like Byrd, Lautenburg, and Inouye. Or worse. In the great Spanish Flu epidemic, it was the healthy young and middle-aged that were decimated, not the very young and very old.

And you know that Satan's looking out for that bastard Delay's ass, he'll never get sick. We've got to hang on to our guys, so let them have their inoculations.
