Those numbers came from the CDC, which admitted the manufacturing processes are taking longer than they that they were. Anybody who knows anything about manufacturing knows that one process taking longer than normal (like growing the virus) is going to disrupt the process.

It’s just SO sad to see someone losing faith in their Messiah. Maybe you didn’t pray hard enough.

Why, it may be unethical for the state of Georgia to accept an abundance of flu vaccines with the knowledge that such an acceptance may restrict another person’s access to said vaccine. Of course, if said vaccines are each worth less than $25, then who cares who receives them.

My favorite Mother Jones one is when, at nearly 100 she was being honored by a stellar gathering that included Mrs. Roosevelt. The person introducing her called her “a great humanitarian…” at which point Mother Jones shouted, “I’m not a great humanitarian! I’m a h*ll raiser!”

This guy has a good take on the Miscreant with a Shotgun…
NEW YORK (CNN)– Controversial freshman Rep. Alan Grayson, who has become famous for attacking the Republicans’ health care plan, went on the attack again Friday night, calling former Vice President Dick Cheney a vampire for his recent criticism of the Obama administration’s handling of the war in Afghanistan.
“I have trouble listening to what [Cheney] says sometimes because of the blood that drips from his teeth while he’s talking,” the Florida Democrat said on MSNBC’s Hardball Friday night. “But my response is this: he’s just angry because the president doesn’t shoot old men in the face. But by the way, when he was done speaking, did he just then turn into a bat and fly away?”

Wonder why there was never a southern white male cracker version of that little ditty for Georgie during the past eight years.

The amusing thing is: if he DID get them vaccinated now, why then his detractors would want to know why HIS children are “special” and get to be vaccinated before other “more deserving” children get vaccinated.
With Obama and his detractors it’s ALWAYS going to be “DIYD, DIYD”

Roubini: I don’t believe in market discipline. It doesn’t work. That was the ideology of the last 10 years; self-regulation means no regulation. Market discipline doesn’t exist with irrational exuberance and reliance on internal risk management models that don’t work. Nobody listens to risk managers, because it’s risk takers that make the profits. The reliance on ratings agencies that have their own conflicts of interest, the reliance on soft-touch regulation, the focus on principles instead of rules—that particular regulatory philosophy has been a disaster, and we’ve learned it the hard way. We have to go to simpler rules, tougher rules and more binding rules. That’s the right approach.

From what I know of Christian Science, it is no less bizarre or irrational than the other Jesus cults.
DoggoneGa, good point.
No matter the scenario, no matter the possible options, no matter what ANY non neo-con EVER does, the faithful will find a way to flame them. It is their godly duty to vilify such heretics and enemies of the state.
And conversely these Christianas STILL shuck and grin for DickHead, the acknowledged and unrivaled modern master on getting American kids KIA’d needlessly.
Which makes his fellow Chickenhawks of the Crusades feel real goooood about how their tax dollars are used and abused…

“Personal responsibility except when it’s not beneficial to their argument.”
And the funny thing is, they don’t REALLY UNDERSTAND what “personal responsibility” actually means. For them, it’s more like “do as I say, not as I do”- than it is TRUE personal responsibility.
