Mexico’s Pink Pinata In The Room

Strangely enough, Homer Simpson died immediately after this photo was taken.
Unless you have been living in a cave these past few weeks, you know that the “swine flu” has crippled Mexico and is spreading throughout other countries, including ours. Ironically, if you have been living in a cave these past few weeks, you are probably much better off. The rest of us will be infected in a matter of hours.
Okay, that could be the conclusion you reach if you listed to idiots like Joe Biden and Janet Napolitano, but (as usual with these clowns) their statements are rarely full o’ facts. The swine flu is something to be concerned about, but unlike the T-virus, it won’t turn us all into zombies.
That’s good, because only the living can read my Family Security Matters article. Here’s a sample:
Just when you thought it was safe to order that bacon enchilada . . .
Our neighbors to the south have been dealing with a deadly strain of swine flu. In two weeks, it has killed over 100 citizens, and has spread to neighboring countries, including the United States. The World Health Organization raised the alert level to Phase 4, and is considering issuing a global emergency. And already there have been rumblings that the Mexican government has not done nearly enough to fight the epidemic. Shocka!
Two weeks after the first known swine flu death, Mexico still hasn’t given medicine to the families of the dead. It hasn’t determined where the outbreak began or how it spread. And while the government urges anyone who feels sick to go to hospitals, feverish people complain ambulance workers are scared to pick them up.
Despite an annual budget of more than $5 billion, Mexico’s health secretary said Monday that his agency hasn’t had the resources to visit the families of the dead. That means doctors haven’t begun treatment for the population most exposed to swine flu, and most apt to spread it.
In fairness, this is a country that is so poor it can’t even pay attention. The entire area is overrun with murderous drug cartels, which kidnap and terrorize civilians and policemen alike. With abject poverty, narco-gangs, and political corruption out the ying-yang, how can the Mexicans possibly get a hold of a swine flu epidemic? Like their porous border “security,” the country’s health system is a joke, and in some parts of Mexico, they are still trying to figure out such insufferable maladies as polio, chickenpox, and the gout.

We’re going all Chicken Little over something that can be treated with TamiFlu.
