A multidrug-resistant tuberculosis known as MDR-TB is persistent in California, primarily among its "foreign-born" population, and has serious financial implications for the state's public-health system, federal and state health officials said yesterday.
"Treatment for MDR-TB is very expensive -- ranging from $200,000 to $1.2 million per person, over an 18- to 24-month time period," said Dr. Reuben Granich, a lead investigator for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, during a press conference in the District yesterday.

George Bush and the other elitist RINOs could care less that honest hardworking middle income Americans get TB. They are above you and I, we are the insignificant little people to them. Most of the violent crime in border states is committed by illegals. More taxes, more welfare, more drugs, more terrorism - but Bush doesnt care because illegals are heros and those protecting our border are "vigilantes". Im done voting for RINOs, Id rather know my enemy than have this enemy from within.

AG Gonzales on Laura Ingram (SP)? this am :when asked about the border said: "its a complex issue".Whenever someone says an issue is "complex", they really mean "I don't want to talk about that because I don't have a good answer". Liberals are famous for using this dodge.

"AG Gonzales on Laura Ingram (SP)? this am :when asked about the border said: "its a complex issue"."
It's about as simple an 'issue' as it gets. I really don't get this whole thing. We're in the middle of a war and securing our perimeter is "complex"? Let's ship Gonzales to the middle of Falluja, build a small fort around him, then leave the doors unlocked and wide open. Let's see if he can figure out the "complex" issue of securing a perimeter when a mob of Iraqis comes after him. Betcha a dollar to a donut the "issue" becomes a whole hell of a lot more simple when it's his arse on the line.
Build a wall from the Pacific to the Gulf and patrol it with massive numbers of troops. Give them orders to shoot anything that comes above, below, around, or through that wall. Guard duty's about as simple as it gets for military guys. It's not hard if I can outline the plan with Crayons; we just have spineless traitors selling our country out to sovereignty-violating invaders.

In the U.S., almost 15,000 cases were reported last year, with 53 percent of those cases found in foreign-born people ILLEGAL ALIENS Had to fix that since all immigrants that get in legally are tested for TB and blocked if they are positive.

It's amazing the semantic gymnastics that people go through to avoid being un-PC.

And "they" call us racists cuz we want the borders shut down. Sheesh.
BTW. I was at the doctor a couple of days ago and I asked about these diseases. She said it is MOST DEFINITELY TRUE that they're returning. Big time.
