Um....HEY EVERYONE....doesn't this TELL YOU ALL SOMETHING.....FLU shots must be available in EXCESS.....I don't get flu shots.....there are better ways of dealing with the flu....being innoculated with dead bird stuff isn't what I WANT!

[SQUID]

How about some immunization first?

[gubamyster]

[longhorn too]

I had to pay 25 freaking dollars for my flu shot.

[piytar]

Actually, I have to agree -- that's just good public policy for all of us. If illegals aren't immunized, they will become a carrier population for the flu, and there are so many of them, they could also become a source for mutated versions of the virus that are not stopped by the current year's immunizations.

[RightWhale]

Clever ruse. Require flu shots for all illegals. Very sneaky. Most will fall for it at first.

[justshutupandtakeit]

Boy talk about exaggeration and distortion. This could lead the pack.

Some of you really have simply got to step back and read what you are saying. Put your emotion on hold and think about what he actually said.

EVERY person should get the flu shot. Everyone. Their job is to manage disease. It is not the Health Services job to do the Border Patrols work. So sober up and think ONE time rather then continue to make total fools of yourselves on this issue.

Some of you are so consumed with mindless hate on this issue you do not even realize how STUPID this thread sounds to everyone else.

Getting flu shots is a Public Health issue that has NOTHING to do with if they should be here or not. Just how exactly are you going to have them "prove" their citizenship? I bet none of you could prove your legal citizens of this country upon demand.

This is the perfect opportunity for a politician to refute the Amnesty Now propaganda network. They can use to to say
"See we don't just hate them, we seen their needs but we do not think they should be here."

But you people with your "Hate them always" 100%erism have SO polarized this issue it is easier for the Pols to just drop it then try to address it. They pols have to go out and listen to all their consiutents views NOT just you people with 100 my way or nothings views. Saying "yes, I want the illegals to be get sick, their kids to suffer" would be politically STUPID. That may feed your own egos but it will NOT win you any elections.

The Illegals get away selling their side as a "Civil Rights" issue. YOU all help them sell their ideas to the voters because EVERY time anything to do with them comes up you all go bonkers. People who MIGHT listen and agree with you NOW walk away laughing saying "Man those Anti Illegals people are just nuts".

Being tough on Border Security is one thing, becoming politically stupid every time the word Illegal Immigrant is said is inexcusable.

[Halls]

you've got to be kidding me! PUKE!

[stanz]

My 91-year-old mother cannot get a flu shot because 1) her doctor has not been able to get the serum, 2) the local town health center does not have the serum, 3) local chains like CVS and Walgreens who do offer the shots never seem to have it either.
But, illegals are going to get it????????????
Give me a break.

[MNJohnnie]

You do realize you are proving my point for me right?

You posted two responses in less time then it would have taken you to read my comment. Both responses were less then 2 minutes after I posted 3 pages of commentary.

That is an emotional, not a rational, response. It proves my point.

But I guess I should know better. These Anti Illegal threads are about emotional self validation not rational discussion of the issue. No wonder no one but the hard core "Hate the Illegals" crowd bothers with them anymore.

[Dane]

LOL! This Fox affilaiate really has really scarped the bottom of the barrel.

What part of "every person" should get a flu shot do you not understand.

Yuh know Kimberly you and this Fox affiliate and Tom Tancredo can keep scraping the bottom of the barrel for all i care. It just alieantes you all even more, such as Fox's promoting O.J. Simpson.

[meyer]

Just when you'd thought that they'd reached the limits of socialistic bullhockey, this comes down the pike.

I'm against free shots for our own American deadbeats (AKA democRATS), and I'm certainly against taxpayer-funded flu shots for these invaders.

Illegals need to be removed from this country, not pampered. We can't afford our own freeloaders, much less those of other countries.

Bush, STOP this BS!

[Vision]

This is beyond nuts.

[freeangel]

Oh, c'mon. We really know those "immunizations" would be to make them sterile. ;)

[toddlintown]

and typhoid, polio, TB, plague, etc...

[sgtbono2002]

For the last three years I have gotten flu shots. For the last three years I have gotten the flu 2 to 3 weeks later. No Thanks, I wont be getting them next year.

[TheLion]

While we are at it I guess we will have to screen them for all the deseases we know that many of them are carrying....then we will have to pay to cure them.

[DownInFlames]

Uh, who pays for my $25.00 shot. Sorry GW, you have just lost your support for the next 2 years. You are a LAME DUCK, now SHUT UP.

[Don_Ret_USAF]

Great! Here in Colorado the military bases will not have the flu vaccine until the 12 of Dec 2006. Guess the vaccine is being held for the illegals. What vaccine is left after the illegals, will go to the military.
Washington wake up and stop smelling the ROSES. Kick the illegals out period. NO Beneees.
