the Obama Drool Team notices the Recession is on and it is really bad. Of course, when you want to showcase "smart", always go to Iowa (where I was born):
These kinds of crushing debts are unimaginable to Jerry Miller, the frugal Iowan. He has never bought a new car and still lives in the house he got for $8,500 in 1960, the house where he and his wife of 54 years, Barbara, raised six kids.
This is a man who once logged every purchase he made in a year — down to a .29 cent pint of ice cream.
As the silver-haired grandfather heads toward another pharmacy on his five-stop, 160-mile route, Miller talks about fiscal responsibility. It's not just about money, he says. It's reputation, too.
"If you've got a good name, they can't take that away from you," he says, jabbing a finger in the air to make a point.
It would have been nice, he adds, if he had a choice about retirement. But Miller says he needs the cash from this 15-hour a week job to pay for health care for himself and his wife.
Just after 12:30 p.m., Miller arrives home in Conrad, Iowa and the veteran of many recessions has some parting words:
"This, right now, is something different," he says. "You've got to have faith in the system. But can you tell me, where did all the money go?"
Swine flu may be in San Luis Obispo. 30 people locally have been tested; three probable cases at Grizzly Youth Academy (the local reform school)so far. Gotta give up the fajitas, Kiddos.
Swine flu probably is manufactured. Here's a nice morsel for your morning musings:
The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved NanoBio's Investigational New Drug (IND) application for the Phase 1 clinical study of NB-1008, a seasonal influenza vaccine administered via a nasal dropper. The Phase 1 trial was iniated in April of 2009 and is a randomized, controlled study in the United States involving 120 healthy human volunteers. ...
Cross strain immunogenicity after vaccination against a single strain: Mice were vaccinated with the H2N2 strain, then challenged with a lethal dose of H2N2. 100% of these mice survived. These same mice were then rechallenged with a lethal dose of a different strain, H1N1, again resulting in a 100% survival. Cross strain immunogenicity was also demonstrated in several studies in Ferrets in 2009.
Lots of scary stuff on WorldNetDaily.com today:
DHS broadened the descriptors for Right Wing Extremists (tm) so that Mr. Miller from Iowa and I both can be in the Big Tent.
Euthanasia is rearing it's ugly head in the USA again, as is eugenics.
A bright spot is Orange CO, CA yanking Planned Parenthood funding because of their gross violations of sexual assault laws pertaining to minors.
On the other hand, some things are just going to go on, and on, and on...you know the drill: "It's all Booosh's fault!"
*grabbin' the hoe and heading off to the Victory Garden....*
