Please refer to the proper name of this flu, not the Orwellian substitute. SWINE FLU.

I am still trying to figure out how the 'pig' flu got named 'swine' flu... Which 'Orwellian' made that distinction?

You’ll have to talk to the mods. At this point my hands are tied.

H1N1 is the more proper term. If it were truly swine flu, Congress would all be on life support.

You're right; it is Orwellian. Seems to me that everything has become Orwellian since 11/5/08.

Could be that soon we'll sing about the Rio Grande: "Way down upon the Swiney River..."
