For Pete’s Sake OBAMA said that he opposed the vaccines because they might cause autism, even though his daughters were vaccinated.
JUNK SCIENCE PING
In addition, there is just as much good and hard science for vaccines causing autism as there is for CO2 causing global warming. Which is why the left has been all over this issue.
All you have to do is look at old cemetery records....and one becomes grateful for the measles vaccine.
The Left believes as well some parts of the nutty libertarian right, that we have a duty to get sick and die.
And these are same folks who lecture us the science surrounding climate change is “settled.” No kidding!
Vaccination is the greatest single invention of mankind - all the diseases we used to get we no longer have because they’re completely preventable.
It stands to reason that some people want to take us back to the Dark Ages. Go figure.
I’m all for vaccines. All my kids were vaccinated.
But the question is, who owns your kids, you or some government functionary.
With money to be made on any new vaccine that becomes mandatory, the nexus between law and money can’t be ignored. I thought about that when they were trying to make the papilloma virus vaccine mandatory.
I chose to not vaccinate my kids and my daughter has done the same.
To me, however, this issue is more about illegal immigrants than it is vaccinating children. If we didn’t have the schools full of immigrants from goodness knows where, without having been through the rigors of passing clean bill of health tests, we wouldn’t have a problem. We chose to home school as well, in order to avoid problems.
Great,the issue should be framed,you wont need to subject your children to vaccines if you vote Republican because they wont allow THOUSANDS of illegal into the country with exotic diseases,some of which have been official eradicated since 2000 like measles,and entro virus68.like the democrats
This is mostly true; the anti-vaccination cult is largely made up of left-wing elites.
However, there are some InfoWars/Organic Food/Orthorexia-types on the right (and on FR) that are part of it too. It seems to appeal to all colors of the political spectrum, even if its leaders are agents of the left.

A number of us on the right also mistrust vaccines, due to our general mistrust of government. (look up the 1975 Swine Flu Vaccine fiasco)

Most of the anti-vaccine people that I know are born-again Christians who are very conservative and don't trust the FedGov. IBD is wrong.
JUNK SCIENCE PING
Uh, this is yet another fraudulent issue. Hippy parents in Marin County don’t vaccinate their kids and let hordes of un-vaccinated illegal aliens over the border; but somehow this is the Republicans fault.
Shame on Christie and Rand for attempting to exploit low-information voters in the following way. Regardless if all voters had Phds in medicine and science, it remains that the states have never delegaged to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to dictate medical or science policies for the states.
The War On Science Meme is getting a jump start on the War On Women Meme this scampaign cycle.
I loathe the DNC run pravda media.
