Media and - Bird Flu

From poster Toby S....Toby says, "The media are in overdrive to keep people either misinformed or just uninformed. If it isn't fake news stories it's overblown and exaggerated news stories. They range from terrorism to the economy to religion. The newest is the "bird flu". How the US isn't ready for it! It's just a matter of time! It's going to be a pandemic, millions and millions will die! Maybe they will maybe they wont. I am not all that worried about it. Seems to me, as usual the problem has started in and is largely contained to Countries who's people wouldn't know a bathtub from a Buick. They live in the same filth as the birds.

Until the ACLU says we can't wash our hands or take showers because it offends someone, I think we are ok. Until the USDA gives up doing its job, I think we are ok. Until people stop getting shots and doing whatever it is that keeps them relatively healthy, we are going to be ok. The flu, one kind or another knocks off tens of thousands of people every year and we do not think about it. Have you not learned anything yet? Just because some media hack says it, doesn't mean it's true. Hey, look at that, the sky is still in the sky. cough, cough. lol" END
