Do you know how to cure a chicken-killin' dog? Now, you know you cannot keep a dog that kills chickens, no matter how fine a dog it is otherwise. Some people think you cannot break a dog that has got in the habit of killin' chickens, but my friend John Henry always claimed you could. He said the way to do it is to take one of the chickens the dog has killed and wire the thing around the dog's neck, good and strong.

"...Vioxx was approved for sale in 1999 by Bill Clinton's FDA..."
You are right about that. And you are right again: facts don't matter to Liberals.
roger that
Molly and Buffalo are a good fit.
Who was president in 1996?
So Molly:
How do you cure a chicken-killin' columnist?
"------"in'" instead of "ing"----"
Yes!!! Good point.
The article, if you read it all, goes into the Vioxx recall being the fault of the FDA which knew about the heart problems going back to 1996, and that somehow is the fault of the Republicans. Well, Geez, wasn't Clinton in power back then?
Didn't I see Ivins drunk as a skunk along with Ann Richards on TV about ten years ago?
LMAO.....they sure are
I'm sure papers use her to get conservatives to read their papers and fume...but not many respond to the lies.
Well, I thought the article was about a whistleblower in Arafat's hospital room. Now I see it's an Ivin's attempt at journalism. I'm just shocked she had the guts to title this what's that awful smell/ She's just asking for ridicule.
Exactly.
If ol'Molly want to hang this particular chicken around the appropriate neck, it will be the neck that belongs to her beloved Billy boy.
I sit down for lunch, read the front page section, and I read her column last...always last, before I walk to the head for afternoon constitutional....
And then I wipe the fecal matter off my a$$ with her column.
It chafes my skin a bit...but I find it EXTREMELY cleansing.
BTW, this is a picture of Jim Hightower's latest book cover. For those of you who don't know, he was the last Democrat elected to statewide office in Texas. Molly loves him. They just can't understand why we Texans are too stupid to understand their reasoned arguments:
Can you believe this?
Hear! Hear! Much like the wretched spawn of my state John Grisham, she makes a living off appealing to Northern stereotypes about the South.
However, unlike Grisham, she is an atrocious writer.
Logical thinking is not Ms. Molly's strong suit. In her tirade against Bush she attempts to pin Merck and the Vioxx scandal on those wascally wepublicans. She's too blinded by her own bile to realize the evidence she presents undercuts her argument.
The senator she credits with blowing the whistle on Vioxx is Charles Grassley, a conservative Republican. She traces the scandal back to 1996 when internal Merck memos show that the company knew of the increased heart attack risk. Well under whose watch did the malfeasance occur then? It was the Clinton FDA that approved Vioxx.
This reminds of the corporate accounting scandal. The abuses occurred during the Clinton administration. The Bush administration discovers the scandal and does something about it, but for liberals like Ivins, this is evidence of Republican corruption. What color is the sky in their world?
Molly and Buffalo are a good fit.
They sure are...both overweight and chronic complainers.
So he's like the Michael Moore of Texas politics...nowhere dude.
