Bush's position on Canadian flu shots vs. prescription drugs "ironic"

[Lakerstan]

"They've been disparaging the Canadian drug system, saying how it's a buyer beware situation, completely unsafe, can't guarantee the safety," said David MacKay, executive director of the Canadian International Pharmacy Association. "Then the moment that they need to go to Canada to find our flu vaccines, all of a sudden, magically, things are safe."

"It's absolutely ironic and ludicrous to think that (U.S. regulators) can assure safety for flu vaccines . . . but they won't do it for life-saving Lipitor (news - web sites) (a cholesterol-lowering statin) as well," MacKay said.

"What's the difference between flu vaccine and Lipitor?"

1. "Ironic"...Is that another word for "flip-flop" or for "two-faced"?

I didn't realize there were so many synonyms! Thanks, bush and gang!
