    So many people. so little time…
    First cow, than bird, now dirty swine.
    We have the answer, we'll know what to do.
    You'll owe us so much by the time we're through.

    You must live responsible, you must live green,
    To fill our wallets, our accounts, and everywhere in between.
    To Goddess Earth, sacrifices, respects you must pay.
    Your imaginary God on high has officially ruled his last day.

    Give us your poor, your youth, your ignorant, and your afflicted.
    This land is finally evolving, as countless have predicted.
    Don't fret for your guns, weapons of "choice".
    Soon a new flag of "change" over you we will hoist.

    For peace, for unity your decrepate laws must go,
    Such frivilous writings away we will throw.
    Our world shall be one, our world shall be made clean.
    Our world will operate unlike anything you have ever seen. (Continue below)

      Do not be afraid, do not fight it, do not fear.
      A new day of " Entitlement" for "us" is at last here!
      Your change will not come easy, nor glorious, nor cheap as a dime.
      It shall chisel you down one ancient, ridiculous belief at a time.
      We will teach you our truth, we will guide the way!
      Be ready, be willing, for our Change is now here to stay.

    A pandemic would suit the government right down to it's toes. A little birdie with the Red Cross told me a few years ago that the government's plan to handle a then bird flu pandemic included regional quarantines and a shutdown of interstate commerce. The larger cities would receive government issued "humanitarian aid" but rural and less populated areas of the country would be left to fend for themselves. Federal authorities would enforce the quarantines and (I hate to say it) martial law would be imposed as needed. That was in 2005. Ever since I've made sure I have a years supply of everything and the means to keep it. There is nothing so frightening as knowing what the fed doesn't want you to.

Let's try and take the high ground and not cheapen the site with petty arguments or worse – uneducated name calling or rude statements about the people we have running the country. That kind of discourse is not helpful. – The Editor and leader of the 912 Elves

    This is somewhat off subject, but because of the differences in agriculture rules in foreign countries versus the rules in USA, I take great care NOT to purchase meat or produce from Mexico, Thailand and China in particular. I've thought for years since we have been inundated with deadly products from China that they are trying to kill us all. What do you think? Of course, I don't think the swine flu came from China, but it could have been planted as a form of bioterroism. These days, anything is possible. And of course, I'm sure the B.O. administration will see this as a "crisis that should not go to waste." Be watchful, everyone!

    Mmmm…… Bacon.
    Pandemics have occurred throughout human history – even before Christ. Ease up on the conspiracy theories. I doubt that you shot every bird you saw in 2005 when the big avian influenza scare was being hyped. Use some common sense, be prepared, and be always faithful.

    Only those who oppose their agenda. *sarcasm – don't send me to moderation again, bro*

  7. Jerseygal says:

    Hey, if you put lipstick on a pig, it may still carry swine flu.

  8. jwjcc1 says:

    This story saddens me, not because our borders are porous and our impotent government enabled this threat to be possible, but because I really love bacon!!!

  9. Ratchell says:

    ROFLMAO, but seriously, how on Earth do we reverse this after the catastrophe has cost us four years? Do you know how long this is going to take to unravel? probably eight years to get us back to where we were. Where is Ronald Reagan?

  10. mustang714 says:

    Maybe the pig has always been there… Perhaps it is one in a series of pigs that were "tested" or "volunteered". Until 1 survived long enough to spread it's new "flu".

    What I wonder is was it set and ready to go for people that were going to Mexico for spring break, but got delayed because we started really warning our kids not to go there?

  11. BillStrong says:

    Lets see , they are going to kill the tax breaks to 95% of Americans , because the money is needed to fund National Health Care , then all of a sudden we have a swine flu threat ? Does anyone else find the timing a little too coincidental ? Next they will want everyone to get vaccinated , is this when they insert a chip in us ?

  12. mustang714 says:

    Good one!! Very good one!

  13. rcalogeroglo says:

    Maybe Mexico will blame America like it is trying to do on illegal firearms coming into that God forsaken country. That's right world, blame America for all that is wrong with your country, schucks, maybe America can take the blame for the entire planet, universe, whatever!!! Secure the borders, keep America safe!!!

  14. winecup says:

    What I personally note from the general reporting of this story is that there is repeatedly a question inserted in the reports about why the cases in the US appear less severe than those in Mexico which have resulted in deaths. What is absurd in this question IMO is that there have been in excess of a 1000 cases studied in Mexico and less than a dozen in the US. How, then, can any comparison of severity yet be made? I worry about this in case US citizens read this as a reason to be less careful. I view reporting with extreme skepticism, and it has me wondering what manipulation of public opinion is going on.

    • winecup says:

      Just a thought…. the implication that those in the US are less severely affected by the virus will bolster the argument that for humanitarian reasons, illegals should be allowed to flee to the US for the better health care our tax dollars provides. Those of us who support a stiffer anti-illegal-immigration stance must surely be painted with a hateful paintbrush.

      • mustang714 says:

        I agree. I'm not one to think in conspiratorial terms, but I'm really doubting all is as it seems here. Well, in a lot of places in govt. There's really just too many things that don't wash. There are plenty of reasons to keep our eyes wide open here, and constantly stay in a state of being prepared. Braced for whatever we're both in the process of, or what is coming our way…

      • Jerseygal says:

        What is Mexico's health care system? I really don't know, but is it nationalized like BH0 wants to do here?

  15. TSToney says:

    I have had to indure a battery of tests and doctors over the past few weeks. When asked if they knew anything about this "Health Care Agenda" of Obama's, every medical professional I have talked to at every medical facility visited have given me exactly the same answer. "He has no Agenda or Medical Plan".

  16. Eileen says:

    Most major animal disease outbreaks can be traced to Concentrated Animal Feeding Operations (CAFO's), where overcrowded and often genetically similar critters allow a virus a perfect breeding ground. The outbreak a couple of years ago of the H5N1 bird flu was traced to a huge Chinese chicken farm. Our government's response to the threat of animal diseases is to eliminate small producers raising animals in traditional ways such as on pasture. Yes, this crisis will not be wasted, it will be used to demonstrate why we need to eliminate American producers and increase the importation of foreign infected animals. Watch for the spin on this, the gov will claim we need the National Animal Identification System for our safety. The reality: This disease did not originate on an American farm producing a few pigs.
    As well as a flood of illegal immigrants crossing our border, we also have a deluge of imported goods crossing our borders. The trans Texas corridor will enable the flow of foreign items to pass with less restriction (like we really have any restrictions) to the Mexican port in Kansas City.

    A huge pandemic wiping out large portions of the World's population should be good, comforting news to Al Gore and other liberals who see man as the enemy anyway. Why this could be great for the environment if you think about it. Less people omitting green house gasses, driving cars, breathing Co2 into the air, encroaching on pristine wilderness. Hopefully the Swine Flu at least takes out some of those in the Amazon burning down the rain forests.

    I'm being sarcastic, but I think there are people out there that really think that way. Oh yeah and less people means it will be easier to control a one world governed population. Can't forget that.

    We aren't hearing about this on the news, either.

      In the southwest they have Hanta-virus which is carried by deer mice. Although the name is different the symptoms are identical to the plague and it's most prevalent within the Navajo Nation. Survival rates for Hanta-virus run around 70% if caught early.

    • mustang714 says:

      Thanks for the link to the site. It looks like a fair new site.

  19. TaxiDude says:

    Everyone knows that it was that ol' devil George Bush who took that pig to Mexico because he doesn't like minorities.
    Hey, if he could blow up the dikes in New Orleans to flood the 9th ward, and invent aids to kill black people; slipping a pig into a 3rd world country had to be easy!

    • Jerseygal says:

      LOL…LOL…LOL. I think the pig was born there. The sow was artificially in.s.e.mi..n.a.t.e.d by a conspriatorial group that included Chavez, Castro, Kim Jon Il, A-Jad and Putin. the sow is being debriefed as we speak (type). This is highly classified info I am sharing here…..Uh Oh…A courier just dropped of a dead fish addressed to me…….

  20. tvlgds says:

    A combo of swine, chicken, and human flu….anybody else think this is a manmade bioweapon?

  21. Muslims hate pigs!!!!! So if you get rid of them in the US then they might come over here. The fear being buried with them because the won't go to there place of rest!

  22. Navydad says:

    What better way to get an influx of new voters, than to fill our hospitals with illegals..
    Here comes the health care agenda again.

  23. Normav says:

    I have often thought that sense we don't care enough about our southern boarder to take care of it maybe we should give it to Israel. that way we would put about 20million Americans to work and all sleep more secure at night.

  24. marypieri says:

    Is this that same swine flu that we were supposed to get in the 1970's? I remember all of us having to go and get shots…..it never amounted to anything though….

    • KhetaAmenti says:

      I had the swine flu back in the 70's and it almost killed me. It sure amounted to alot for me, lol

      • marypieri says:

        Sorry to hear that….I don't remember hearing of anyone having it….it seemed like that whole bruhaha just kind of blew over….glad to see you got over it….hope it doesn't come around again…..

    This little piggy went to market.
    This little piggy stayed at home.
    That little piggy slipped on night goggles, cut through the barbed wire, ran through the sagebrush stands, slipped across sands, followed the roads to an open garage with a cot, and shook hands with an amigo Americano before washing his hands of viruses caught all the way (back) home. :)

    • tntster says:

      LOL, I think you may have a new career C_Marie, is there some sort of stimulus for that

    • DMN says:

      I can't get your little piggy tune out of my head. I'm going to hum it till the piggies come home.

      • Jerseygal says:

        If you really want the tune gone, try replacing it with the theme song from the Andy Griffith Show. I'm told that one doesn't linger, and tends to chase the ones that do (just in case the piggies are home and you can't get rid of the tune).

    • 42lead says:

      Do you think Obamanible has been vaccinated against this? Probably, It's too bad. He recently went to Mexico and so did Clinton.

  26. T4TXT4TN says:

    Don't worry, the Mexican goverment has already been out in motor homes traveling over the U.S. giving out information to the Co-Nationals on how to get healthcare, WIC, Housing and other goverment services that are free to them but we pay for in taxes. So chances of the Co-Nationals suffering illness are far less than you or me.

  27. stang289 says:

    al queda?? secure our borders? another crisis that wont go to waste. get ready for the flood of iilegals now rushing for our hostpitals!!

  28. RowaneT says:
