To save money, the CDC or NIH could have questioned Janet Napolitano, Rosie O’Donnell and some members of Code Pink about the dates and obesity questions. Would have cost about $10 in phone calls.

Also notice that NIH said that the budget slip took place during the past 10 years. 2014 minus 10 = 2004.
That is BUSH 2005-2009 budget years and Obama years 2010-2015 (depending on when the yearly budget was actually passed and signed).

Evenly split but there was no major health threat during the BUSH years. THAT IS THE DIFFERENCE, PLUS EARLIER PLANS EXISTED SINCE THE 1990’S TO DEAL WITH MAJOR HEALTH CRISES.

Freepers picked up on this but let’s see if the Mainstream Media does.

Republicans / conservatives will not have a secure future until they learn that they need to respond to lies with the loudest bullhorn shouting the truth that they can muster. Every utterance from the left, every single one needs to be addressed and unmasked. Letting lies go unanswered is wrong. Tell the truth, and tell it with strength and conviction.

Rush L has been apoplectic for the last few days, since news came out that Rove ‘sat’ on information about Iraqi WMDs and various political attacks on GWBuh for 5 years.

==

Those like Rove — and that includes all former politicians who end up settling in the DC area after they leave/lose office — are there for THEIR own interests. They suckle on the teats of Big Government because they know how to get money from the Big Government THEY helped make bigger.

It has been revealed in the last 3 election cycles that several incumbent politicians don’t even have residences in the states from which they were elected.

But, conservatives, especially, have been falling for the same lines for decades:

You can’t jump ship to a new party or the Dems win.

You have to work within the bowels of the Republican party to reform it.

[That didn’t even work for the idol of conservativism, Ronald Reagan. He was manipulated into selecting GHWBush as his VP, and we haven’t been able to get the Bush elites out of Washington politics since. George P is already warming up in Texas for the next decade.]

Conservatives need to bite the bullet and realize the GOP has not been a party for conservatism since Goldwater. Every current GOP elite leader has trashed conservatives. Sadly, conservatives suffer from battered-wife syndrome and keep returning ‘home’ to the GOP.

You can not catch it from a rat
You can not catch it from a bat

Of worrying, there is no need
At least until your eyeballs bleed

Do not panic till your dressed in
Your dissolving large intestine

No need for quarantine, You Dunce,
Til you spew your guts from both ends at once.

Obama brought all those sick kids to USA from Central America. When that didn’t create the epidemic/panic he was trying to create, he was forced to also bring in Ebola. He will do anything to destroy America....

“Evenly split but there was no major health threat during the BUSH years”

As I recall there has been no budget during Oboma years
