Feds go hog wild promoting swine-flu shots
WND ^ | 8/27/09 | Chelsea Schilling

With plush swine-flu toys stocked on its gift-shop shelves, citizens earning $50 to attend forums on the virus and an additional $50 for those willing to take a vaccine, it's a $16 million swine-flu shot bonanza hosted by the federal Center for Disease Control.

the problem is that vaccines only work if enough people take them to create a herd immunity. But there’s no trust anymore.

In the old days, everyone had trust and took their polio shots and that was the end of polio. If we had to deal with polio today, we’d probably see parents taking their kids to polio parties. :/

Add me please :o)

My husband and I discussed this the other day - we’ve decided our family will not take this shot.

Who is being paid off with the supplier contract of the vacines? (Hint: follow the money, as always)

well, I’ll take the flu shot

Good luck with that. In my case, I've never had a flu shot or the flu. Why start now? PLUS, I trust this government about as much as I trust a rabid dog.

Chicken soup and vitamin C. (maybe some good Scotch)

For those who didn’t read the link, the photo of the toy is real and not a joke. This has taken some planning.

What we have here is an long orchestrated “community organizing” opportunity using a swine flu “crisis”.

Hand out continental breakfasts and $50 to 1000 people in 10 events at sites across the nation, train them with the talking points to be the useful idiots, and you’ve got your propaganda team.

Here’s from the article:

CDC sells swine-flu toy

In addition to hosting forums to spread its H1N1 message, the CDC’s headquarters in Atlanta is also selling a stuffed swine-flu toy in its gift shop, according to Atlanta’s WXIA 11 News. The pink toy is intended to look like a microbe and also resembles a pig snout.

GIANTmicrobes, the company that markets and sells the giant swine flu microbes for $7.95, also provides an information booklet about the H1N1 virus with the stuffed toy.

More like a team of "Swine Flu Marys."

Polio was a very specified vaccine that took painstaking years to develop and trial test.

Flu shots are more of an untested cocktail. Each individual has to determine if the benefits out way the risks. And yes, you are correct on the trust issue. But then again, this government has quickly earned that distrust.

I have made posts on FR about the company that is the US supplier of the vaccine. A key Obama donor/benefactor owns 8 million shares of AVI BIO PHARMA. This company won an (illegally) uncontested bid to produce and sell all the swine flu vaccine to us. The administration has been hollering about the swine flu since the beginning of the administration taking office. They have introduced legislation fo have the military distribute it. They have obviously produced tons of it, are forcing us all to pay for it, and soon force us all to take it.

This whole deal smells to high heaven.

"This whole deal smells to high heaven."

I went back and found some of your previous posts. Nice job of identifying the money trail to Obamanites. This is another payoff that the taxpayers are soaked for, with State Run Media scare tactics (as penned for script by the Socialist Bastards now illegally occupying the Whitehouse and other posts where qualifications are ignored, and illegal appointments of cronies are rampant).

Another FReeper, who I won't name as they did not want their own name tied to it gave the info to me to publish. So I cannot take credit for finding it, but only for putting it up-

However, one other item came out from this. Tied up in the production of the vaccine, the military's bio weapons lab is being contracted too. Could be a coincidence, but it did give me pause.
