    Time for Superzero to don his cape and fly into action as the concerned leader.
I wonder how long it will take Zero and his LSM to start fear mongering.

    This must be like a template news story on file.
All they have to do is change the name of the flu and the location, and voila, it’s the new kill-everyone flu.
Avian flu. Swine flu. Skunk flu.
If we’re a secular culture with no heaven or hell, why worry about it? Unless you’re really harboring a concern that there is a hell.

    Wait, wait, let me guess.....
....and the only thing that will save us is higher taxes, bigger government, and fewer freedoms!
Am I right? am I right? What do I win?
