The Bush Administration has indicated it wants doctors, clinics, and hospitals to provide flu immunizations to illegal immigrants.

In an interview with KFOX-TV, Secretary of Health and Human Services Michael Leavitt was asked if the federal government has any safeguards to prevent illegal immigrants from catching the flu. Leavitt responded by saying doctors should give flu shots to "every person."..............

Calling INS! Calling INS! Another taxpayer ripoff instead of enforcing the laws of the land.

Yeah we really want them to sever as a disease vector instead and help spread the illness.,

Really this mindless hate of the Know Nothings is getting rather pathetic.

Here's an idea, send 'em back where they came from... Let their government give 'em a flu shot.

Yes, they do need them. If they aren't immunized, the disease can really spike in their populations and then get into the general population.

Nope. Give them the shot then send them home...to Mexico.

If GWB insists on pissing away taxpayer monies...at least he should uphold the Constitution, protect our Republic, enforce the laws and ship 'em the hell outta here.

I'm up with that.

Long as Goerge W. Bush the multi-millionaire and his wife Lovey is paying for it out of his own pocket.

How about instead of citizens paying for more crap for illegals we pay to have illegals thrown the hell out of the country?

The day that Illegals are able to collect Social Security is the day that the Government will make efforts to close the border.

Right now, an estimated 10 million Illegals pay into SS, but don't collect. The government (both Democrats and Republicans) need the Illegals to help keep the SS system afloat. Its just a matter of time before some Federal Judge changes that.

That I could support. Private efforts are one thing, forcing tax payers to support the health needs of criminals the government refuses to do anything about is worse than a slap in the face of every law abiding citizen.

Republicans now saying doctors should work for free and give medical stuff away.

Does government work for free for things that need to be done?
