Darn if you do...Darn if you don't

There are just some things I guess I'll never quite understand. Take fire ants and June bugs for instance. What on earth can they possibly be good for? Don't get me wrong, I'm not fussing over the grand design from our dear Lord; I'm just saying I don't understand it. For example, politicians are kind of like June bugs and fire ants. I can't see any reason for them either, but who am I to question their purpose. I said all this to actually have something good to say about them...politicians, not fire ants. Since they are people I have to give them that credit and respect (politicians....not June bugs). That's why a newspaper headline jumped out at me tonight. It read," Two Arkansas representatives got flu shot, four refused". At this we are supposed to be lead to the conclusion that the four who refused were our champions for leaving their shots for someone much more needy, and the two who took the shots were self-seeking leeches. I'm willing to bet the following scenarios would be true if they played out:

1) Alice Schmuck, an Arkansas representative from Blevins, refused her flu shot. Her constituents and half the media praise her for her great sacrifice of making her shot available for someone in need. Later Ms. Schmuck gets the flu and misses a week from her duties. Her constituents and the other half of the media blast her for being a "slacker" and negligent in her sworn duties to God and country (we can still say 'God', can't we?)

2) Joe Schramooza, an Arkansas representative from Emmet, chose to get his flu shot since he found one available. His constituents and half the media blast him for taking the shot from someone in need. Later Mr. Schramooza gets the flu and misses a week from his duties. His constituents and the other half of the media blast him for being a "slacker" and negligent in his sworn duties to God and country (we can still say 'God', can't we?)

I guess I'm not as touchy about politicians as I am the media. I swear, I have to laugh at the way so much is being made over the FLU SHOTS. I've heard everyone to blame from the President Of The United States Of America all the way down to my local doctor. I've even heard where this is supposed to be a reason that the outcome for the presidential race could be changed. All this blame going on from everywhere, but I haven't heard or read the first word about WHY the stinkin' medicine got contaminated in the first place. ( Did Mr. Bush leave it out of his refrigerator too long ? )....come on, the "blame" is on the medicine's manufacturer for goodness sake, not our government ( or even Dr. Dale Goins ) . Oh well, only in America ( God help us....please !)


Sorry I haven't posted in a bit but I've had a big health scare of late that set me back a bit. For those that showed your concern...Thanks. To the rest..no problem, you probably didn't know.

By the way, I was happy for the Grand Poo Bah's report on enima as I didn't know this nice young man was so astute of worldly matters.


Bless 'ya
