A few days old, but still smells pretty bad. Obama is deluging us with scandals and frauds all at once and hoping that some of them will go unnoticed in the shouting over the others.

Thanks Brilliant.

Now the rest of the nation can awaken to normal everyday Chicago politics. Hire an unknown Chicago politician and you get Chicago politics.

There may be something far more ominous than a money scandal here. Does the production of this vaccine require access to the smallpox virus stocks held by the U.S.?

[Joann37]

Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.) is looking into this? This IS a shocker!

[WILLIALAL]

Sen. Claire McCaskill (D-Mo.)
Election coming and she is doing everything she can to try and cover heard record of supporting Obama. This is so pathetic. Where was her fiscal concern with the stimulus and Obamacare?
It won’t work, she is tied to Obama at the hip.

The level of corruption in this administration is far beyond anything I've ever seen in my lifetime. I hope to God we can clean up this vile, putrid swamp before the nation dies.

For those of you who didn't read the article, here are the stomach-churning salient points:

• A contract for 1.7 million doses of a smallpox vaccine was awarded to Siga Technologies of New York.
• Siga's principal investor is megabillionaire and key Democratic moneyman Ron Perelman.
• Siga's board includes Andy Stern, former head of SEIU, who (it’s been reported) was given stock options that would dramatically increase in value if Siga won the contract. Stern visited the White House 53 times between Inauguration Day and February 23, 2011, more than any other person.
• The Siga vaccine is considerably more expensive — $255 a dose — than the one now in use. HHS’ chief medical officer called the 180% markup on the vaccine “outrageous.”
• The Siga vaccine has a short shelf life of 38 months. The contract requires a 60-month shelf life.
• The Siga vaccine has not been tested on humans.
• The HHS contract was specified to be awarded to a small business. Siga is not a small business. Another bidder, a legitimate small business, complained and HHS reopened the process, but barred any company but Siga from bidding. HHS cancelled the bid and Siga was simply asked to submit a proposal, which was accepted.

After we eject zero in the next election, we had better be certain to prosecute his a** when he is out of office. We must demonstrate that zero is a crook and that he is not above the law.
