Why not make a push for PUMA’s to point out Palast’s new attitude when it comes to obama? By posting his article, also include all the mean spirited things he said against Hillary during the primary to bring the point home?

The company that released contaminated flu virus material from a plant in Austria confirmed Friday that the experimental product contained live H5N1 avian flu viruses.
And an official of the World Health Organization’s European operation said the body is closely monitoring the investigation into the events that took place at Baxter International’s research facility in Orth-Donau, Austria.

But there seems to be no repercussions or hard feelings when industry oversteps the boundaries of morality and integrity and enters the arena of obscenity. Because, lo and behold, which company has been chosen to head up efforts, along with WHO, to produce a vaccine against the Mexican swine flu?

It was Baxter International

Wonder who owns stock in Baxter International? More of just the Chicago Way?

Baxter International Inc. (NYSE: BAX), is an American health care company with headquarters in Deerfield, Illinois

President Obama’s lies in Montana were the most egregious falsehoods since Bill Clinton said “I did not have sexual relations with that woman”.

The current President was asked how the government is going to pay for the $1 trillion in new health care expenditures under HR 3200. Watch the video here.

Part of the President’s answer included blaming a previous administration. Oh no, he’s not blaming Bush again, is he?

Well, as it turns out, the previous administration was Bill (“depends on what the meaning of is is”) Clinton’s.

The current President claims that we can save $60 billion per year by “eliminating subsidies to big insurance companies”. Subsidies? What subsidies?

Even NYT David Brooks on PBS said Obama was telling some whoopers.

But wait, there’s even less!

That really sums it up Ferd!

Eleana posted this link on another thread, the funniest and most dead-on critique about O-Whole-Health I’ve seen yet:

But wait, there’s even less!

This is one of those first-prize-you-get one healthcare package and second prize-you-get-two healthcare packages.

“His 2%?” Let’s take this a little further. If the potential savings ran to 55% and Obama settled for 2% that leaves a whopping chunk of cash in place for Big Pharma. How much of that do you suppose will wind up in Obama’s campaign coffers?

The “death panels” are real, folks. They’re already in place at the VA. When surgeons refuse to repair an aneurysm that meets all the surgical criteria and recommend instead that the 65-year-old patient be “re-refer(red) when aneurysm is larger” the handwriting is on the wall. If you are sixty-five, your primary obligation if you get sick is to shut up and die.

Is it any wonder people are screaming?

Yes, it is too late for this go-’round, and yes, Palast AND Moore were horrible to Hillary. My HOPE (ahem) is that Palast, at least, is doing his penance by investigating Obama’s methods.

Naturally, I would love nothing more than for him to flat out say he was wrong, and beg for forgiveness from Hillary (which she would give him because that’s how she rolls).

That being said, I completely understand from where you are coming…

He’ll fit right in with the Chicago crowd! (see Wikipedia article) I think he’d be able to cut a much better deal with the Pharma-crowd than O did!

And be better at selling the crappy product to an unsuspecting public, too.
