tests show any residual is plenty effective... even up to 45 years I read last week...

over half of the adult population is safe.

I trust...

... but want to verify.

the portland terrorist, arrested yesterday, had worked in the mayor's office and had access to infrastructure data and personnell... these folks are no doubt planning on something bigger than spot "small pox" outbreaks.

small pox, only half of us could catch, and half of the people we contact could catch that... It could be easily caught, and a quarantined area vaccinated en masse to stop the spread of the disease... pretty quickly.

"small pox" is a big enough demon to get us thinking... but I wonder if there might not be something else they are not telling us. It doesn't hurt to ask, speculate and consider... it's what we do here. You know that.

Where did you read that??? On that same whack job website you posted from earlier? The CDC and other sources say that you're wrong on that score. Ever see pictures of a smallpox victim? Are you willing to bet your vaccine is still effective with that as the ante?

President Bush deserves our support on this. I'll bitch and moan and complain every single time I think he's caving to the dims on their social agenda, but I'll never give an inch of ground to anyone who claims that W is anything less than an honorable, decent and good man who has the best interest of his country at heart...period.
