One thing forgotten about asthma. I'll have to say this very loud over the leftist media.

ASTHMA IS INHERITED

There. I have it. Several aunts uncles and cousins have it. My grandma had it. We all lived in different areas.

It's genetic.

Absolutely correct. I'll say it again ASTHMA IS INHERITED! You can get it even if each parent has never had asthma but carries a recessive gene.

"Kennedy" is inherited, too. Just take a look at the whole family.

Hannity (I think?) had RFKJ on, debating about his book, a while back, and RFKJ sounds so spaced-out and unable to communicate (or drugged out?) that I kept thinking the book must be ghostwritten...

Don't these whining leftists ever get *tired* of running around inventing crises to whine about? Don't they ever get *bored* with it? (Never mind; don't answer that...)
