President Obama's school age daughters have not been vaccinated against the H1N1 flu virus. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says the vaccine is not available to them based on their risk.

Ok, if this doesn't prove we are here to serve the Great 0bama instead of him serving us, nothing will. What excuses can the left make that his daughters are not in the risk group? Aren't all other US students to get vaccinated??? Gee, did he sign the opt out form??? Liar and Dictator-in-Chief.

[Red Steel]

Is there a National Emergency Obama?

[downtownconservative]

Risk?? Low or high? Risk of infection? Risk of adverse reaction??? Good old articulate Gibbs.

[trumandogz]

And the money line of the article is:

At this time only children with chronic medical conditions are receiving the vaccination because their immune system is not strong enough to fight off the strain.

Thus, it would appear that the Obama's are compiling with the standards recommended by the CDC.

[Bullish]

Not much for leading by example are they?

[neodad]

He was exposed to H1N1 in Mexico. How could his daughters not be in a risk group, plus they travel all the time. More BS from POTUS.

[IllumiNaughtyByNature]

There’s a rhyme in there with chick(s) and (vaccination) prick somewhere?

[clove]

I thought that it was because his daughters don’t mix with the lower classes.

[null and void]

Although I would never say this out loud, I worry about the 0bama daughters. They are almost old enough to marry off to an oil sheik, just in the interests of cementing a deal, of course...

Dr. Rosenfield on Fox Sundays today said the highest risk groups was ages *2 to 29*! Pregnant women were the other highest risk group.

Surely Michelle's "punishments" Malia & Sasha fall in there somewhere, eh?

/Tin foil hat on

I bet they aren't being vaccinated because the vaccine is a waste of time!

/tin foil hat off

[raybbr]

This is designed to evoke sympathy. Anyone want to bet they aren’t going to go to school?

[Paladin2]

The gov’t supplies all flu vaccine in the US for liability reasons? Maybe the gov’t needs to buy some health care insurance from AIG.

[divine_moment_of_facts]

"the vaccine is not available to them.."

What a joke.. I'm sure if Obama wanted his little girls to get the vaccine it would be available to them in a heartbeat.

[jabchae]

I can’t speak for Gibbs, but I know that where I live, with respect to this vaccine, risk = risk of death from H1N1 flu. So, a child with asthma, epilepsy, cardiac problem is considered at high risk. Also very young children. So, only those children might be able to get the H1N1 vaccine. I know a lot of people were begging for it here and couldn’t procure it for their children. I can’t say whether Obama offspring would be vaccine-eligible.

[GnuHere]

What do you mean, not going during the flu outbreak? Wouldn’t that news have leaked out?

[EGPWS]

President Obama's school age daughters have not been vaccinated against the H1N1 flu virus. White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs says the vaccine is not available to them based on their risk.

A prelude to selecting who must die and who can live based upon a government determination?

[trumandogz]

As long as the girls do not have a chronic medical condition, it would appear from the article, that they are not in a group who is now receiving the H1N1 vaccination.

[Red Steel]

Or Obama really doesn’t think this flu is not much more risk than the usual seasonal flu.

[mlizzy]

Surely Michelle's "punishments" Malia & Sasha fall in there somewhere, eh?

Maybe Obama doesn't want his kids "experimented" on. That's a good sign, eh?

[livius]

Actually, I think Muslims have some strange thing about vaccines. Anybody know more about this? I recall reading somewhere that one of the problems with getting vaccines into the Muslim world (of which Barry is obviously a part) is that they object to something about the whole concept.
