Already posted, and in the Breaking News thingy, fyi. Includes one of my typically-crabby comments. :)

Asthmatics are a burden to the system and should be encouraged die sooner. That way, the rest of us will save on health care costs.

Ban those damned Breathalyzers!

But the switch to a greener inhaler will cost consumers more. Epinephrine inhalers are available via online retailers for around $20, whereas the alternatives, which contain the drug albuterol, range from $30 to $60.

It's only money, peasants. Be thankful it isn't more.

I have no clue on how he is going to avoid having things thrown at him by parents of children who have asthma. I don’t know how he is going to end up avoidning being frogmarched out by the citizenry, much less at all the marines as some have suggested. There is no way that at all, he will get reelected. All it takes is one death by an asthmatic to end up wiht him getting impeached.

Fed Gov mandated that albuterol inhalers switch from r12 freon to H134a, the Good Freon, years ago. They could mandate that the epinephrine inhalers switch also.

Asthma disproportionately affects children, families with lower incomes and minorities.

Democrats hare poor minorities.

The GOP will never be able to undo all of the crap he is doing if they ran the place for two decades.

“There is no way that at all, he will get reelected. “

I dunno, the MSM has been urging Romney to run for nine years now. They must know he’d lose, or that they can make him lose.

I think a Romney vs Obama race has a good chance of a re-elected Obama.

Especially if we get blasted with every lie Mitt has attempted, like writing a check for Planned Parenthood, being asked about it, lying, then having a picture show up along with corroboration from Planned Parenthood.

Albuterol is prescription. So much more for the inhaler, plus the cost of a few doctor or clinic visits.

Every time Obama takes off in Air force One he spews more atmospheric crap then all the inhalers on earth.

This would be the trifecta for liberals! Less CFC's into the atmosphere, less healthcare costs because those pesky asthmatics would die sooner, and less CO2 emissions from breathing people. George Costanza would be proud!

If not for primatene mist I wouldn’t have survived one particular night. Beauty of the stuff was that it was only a drugstore away...and very effective.
