FEAR! TERROR! FLU! DEATH! PANDEMIC!!! ---pix->>>

Not even Condi is buying this one.

And how about the giant hypo behind him?








U.S. President George W. Bush speaks on his administration's influenza preparedness and response at the National Institute of Health in Bethesda, Maryland November 1, 2005. Bush asked Congress on Tuesday for $7.1 billion in emergency funding to prepare the United States for a pandemic of avian influenza. REUTERS/Jason Reed

1. Bush - "Okay, 20 million wealthy people in America..."
"so 20 million vaccines should do it."

3. Did he forget to put his teeth in again?
I swear, he's the only person on the planet with world class dental coverage whose teeth don't show when he talks.

5. That is not a hypo ....
Edited on Tue Nov-01-05 01:52 PM by Botany
.... it is a lab instrument to deliver the exact amount of a fluid into
a test tube, culture dish, or an other container. Also used when making
vaccines.

Bush talking about science is like me talking about how I am going to
play middle linebacker in the NFL.

16. They have to put a message behind him because the crap .....
.... from his mouth is so hard to understand.

I remember his post Enron speech ...... with "Returning Corporate
Responsiblity" plastered all over behind him. I had to laugh, i thought
here was a man who made his money on insider trades and his
brother Neil took the tax payers for over a billion for his Silverado
S & L scam.

BTW i think that hypo thing is called a micro pipette.

I am living for the day when somebody get into one of his speeches
and gets up and yells Bullshit ..... especially when he drops the Iraq
9/11 chestnut.

..It's a volumetric pipette or auto pipette allows precise delivery, as you say, of very small fluid quantities. Man, Bush in a lab, the only scenario that makes sense to me with that in mind is him being analysed to find out what went wrong.

8. What timing!
It's pretty transparent that he waited until now to come up with his BS in order to try to distract people from the current WH crimes!

20. Here's my question:
He announced Alito on Monday and made this big pandemic speech today, so what is on the distraction agenda for tomorrow? He can't just keep doing this. There are not enough topics in the world for him to keep everyone distracted this time. Time's up, Bush.

9. Why would the Secretary of State be at a speech about the flu?
Talk about grandstanding. Oh, I forgot, it is the Asian avian influenza requiring our foreign diplomat.

11. He's doing this one for Rummy. After all, Rummy was the Chairman of the
Board of Gilead Science (through 2001) which created Tamiflu.

23. Come on now, the free market must not be fettered by consumers
who want to sue when they get hurt by products, even if the company responsible knew about the dangers. Free market uber alles!

:sarcasm: of course

Force Republican politicians and the makers of these products to be injected by the vials of products that were intended for the general public. It would be interesting to see if they'd resist huh?

I am just saying.... ;-)

29. The products are perfectly safe, right? Why should they resist?
;)

Actually, if the drug manufacturers did have to do that, they might be a little bit more careful about safety. I'm just sayin'.
