Swine Flu

There is no reason to panic, there is no pandemic. People who travelled to Mexico caught the flu. The only people who die from it are the frail, the elderly, and children who are already in poor health. There is no greater chance of dying from the swine flu than there is from any other type of flu.

Why has this become a big deal so the Democrats can take over the health care system and "save" America from themselves. These National and International Health Organizations jump on the band wagon beause it allows them to show people they are relevant which they are not.

How many people has the lady in Howell infected? None

How many people did she come into contact with? I assume hundreds before she wqas quarantined.

So this tells me it isn't even that communicable. Wake up America and don't allow yourself to be led astray by the media.

Threading in forums

We are working on adding threading to the forums. Clicking on the headline of a post will now get you related posts in a few different ways.

- If the post was sent to us in response to an article, clicking on that post's headline will retrieve all comments on that article, and clicking on the "See related article" link will send you to the article itself.

- If the comment was submitted in response to a cybersurvey, clicking on the headline will take you to the cybersurvey and its related comments.
