Don't Panic...Just Don't Visit America

That's right friends, The EU has put America on the no fly list, based upon our association and proximity with Mexico and the present flu outbreak. Talk about an object lesson in guilt by association?

EU health chief: Don't travel to Mexico or U.S.

LUXEMBOURG - The European Union's health commissioner urged Europeans on Monday to postpone nonessential travel to the United States or Mexico due to swine flu.

EU Health Commissioner Andorra Vassiliou met with the EU foreign ministers on the subject as Spain reported the first confirmed case of swine flu in Europe. That was also the first swine flu case outside North America.

On arriving in Luxembourg, Vassiliou advised Europeans to reassess their travel plans.

That's right, the first European case arrived in Spain, via a returning visitor from Mexico and suddenly America is included in the no travel recommendation by the EU.

That is fine by me, I don't see a need to have these Europeans roaming around America to begin with. Most of them detest us anyway, so I fail to see their interest in traveling here to begin with. Perhaps we should reciprocate. By banning their visas and passports because they refuse to deal with and address the other virulent disease infecting the world....Islamic fascism. And it is far more deadly than any flu IMO.

And besides, we have our own problems with an unsecured border with Mexico and an absolute nut case in charge of Homeland Security on top of that. Ms. Janet Napalitano's latest pearl of wisdom yesterday, aside from the fact that "she" didn't think that anything needed to be done with the border, was that regardless of the severity of the present flu outbreak, we should prepare for another one to follow.

So what is it that those in government know, but are not telling us. First they claim that there is nothing to fear, yet the CDC folded tent and surrendered immediately and this was with less than 20 reported cases in America.

Then Napalitano and others are summed to issue a rare Sunday news conference on the issue, only to tell us that there isn't a lot that they can do, but the one thing that they are not going to do, is close the border with Mexico.

So you see, it makes little difference if it is illegal aliens crossing into America to take jobs and rob our social services, or Mexican drug gangs spilling across the border and shooting people in America, or some pandemic of swine flu originating in Mexico that could kill thousands of Americans. Either way, out government is on top of it and plans to do absolutely nothing.

Meanwhile, the Japanese are using infrared cameras to scan all returning passengers from Mexico, to see if they are running a temperature when they arrive home. Once again, those in other parts of the world are demonstrating more common sense than our own leaders.

But one thing is for sure IMO and that is if the people of this country are going to be protected from anything? They are going to have to protect themselves. Because the government damn sure isn't going to do it.
