The Onion: Obama's Declaration of Swine Flu Emergency Prompts Pro-Swine-Flu Republican Response
The Onion pretty much sums up everything there is to sum up here. I think we can all go home now…
Claiming that the president was preying on the public's fear of contracting a fatal disease last week when he declared the H1N1 virus a national emergency, Republican leaders announced Wednesday that they were officially endorsing the swine flu…
Other prominent Republicans opposing Obama's declaration of emergency include Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal, who urged residents of his state to continue not washing their hands, and radio host Rush Limbaugh, who made a point of dying of the virus during his show on Wednesday.
I don't think there's anything to add to that. We can probably all just go home now.

Clearly this is the answer to healthcare costs Republicans have been looking for. Survival of the fittest… as chosen by God, because we all know that natural selection is absolute crap.
Swine Flu/Palin '12!
I will miss Rush Limbaugh, now that he did the right thing and died on his show. I hope it was a sweeps week. He was the funniest man on and media. He leaves behind a grieving network, maybe two.
I am tempted to lament about the fates of all my favorite show hosts, but that might be in bad taste. Even over the top. I guess they will just have to find other celebrities to have fun with. On the air. I don't know what they do at home while the government watches. Really. I haven't hacked in to anything.
Anyway, RIP Rush. This is really… sec, hold on.
Crap. Ok, "Enter" will delete all this, right?
