So this whole "swine flu" thing has really taken hold of the country, even the world. The truth of the matter is that here in the U.S. we have nothing to be worried about, as of right now. There are more than 100 cases being reported, but not one single American has died.
Yes, things are bad down in Mexico, but places down there are unsanitary and they don't have the same type of medical care that we do.
With that said, our wonderful vice president opened his mouth on the 'Today' Show this morning, and basically said that in order to remain safe from the flu, people should avoid cars, planes, classrooms, trains, subways, and confined spaces. Are you kidding me? Why don't we stop life while we are at it?
Last Night President Obama addressed the nation to mark his first 100 days in office. During his speech he pretty much said that everyone needs to remain calm and go about their lives. Less than 12 hours later, Biden goes on national television and contradicts everything Obama said. Is that a sign of a great vice president, or a complete moron?
Joe Biden, do us a favor and keep your mouth shut. everytime you open it something stupid comes out. As a matter of fact, this latest comment was so stupid that it prompted American Airlines to respond. The company had this to say:
“To suggest that people not fly at this stage of things is a broad brush stroke bordering on fear mongering. The facts of the situation at this stage certainly don’t support that.”

You know, I was really concerned about this flu stuff until Biden went off on it. I know he's famous for fuck-ups, so I figured if he's worried, I'll do the opposite.
