West Nile virus has sickened more than 16,500 Americans and killed 656 since the first U.S. case was reported in 1999. Rumors abound on the web saying that Saddam was responsible for the virus from Africa entering into the U.S. There are also rumors this virus may have been launched from Cuba by sending infected pigeons into the New York. Of course, Castro and Saddam may have been working together. But I believe in stupid coincidences just like most of the MSM in America.

Only last week, people were reporting dead birds dropping out of the sky in Oregon. Dead birds are being found all over the state. Scientific tests are being conducted for West Nile.

Quite the plague. What a media generated joke. The media in Illinois run with these West Nile stries all summer evey year and the truth is very few people even get sick from it. Most people get a gut ache for a day or two and that is it.
