Watching the MSM: Idiots or Tap Dancing Around the Issues?
I haven't seen it yet. Maybe it's there somewhere. Yesterday, many of our astute bloggers were making the connection between the Swine Flu Pandemic and the GOP's recent decisions that have made our country, yes, LESS SAFE.

Thought some are loosely affiliated, I think the connection between the GOP shooting down funding for potential epidemics, and the poo poo'ing of the Pig Farm Stench research in the recent stimulus and budgets presented by Obama deserves some attention. I just watch as CNBC touches on these ideas, talking about gigantic industrialized pig farms and their health threats, as well as talking heads speculating how bad it would be for a large scale Pandemic to hit during this economy. All things that were to be funded before the GOP got their collective intellect involved.

Again, I haven't seen it being brought up yet in the MSM. I'm just sitting here and listening to countless stories that are all begging for the MSM drones to figure it out. Connect the dots. They may never. Maybe they don't want to?
