Obama Declares H1N1 a National Emergency
Most likely in an effort to gain more support for Obamacare, President Obama declared a national emergency as a result of the H1N1 virus.
NOW, THEREFORE, I, BARACK OBAMA, President of the United States of America, by virtue of the authority vested in me by the Constitution and the laws of the United States…do hereby find and proclaim that, given that the rapid increase in illness across the Nation may overburden health care resources and that the temporary waiver of certain standard Federal requirements may be warranted in order to enable U.S. health care facilities to implement emergency operations plans, the 2009 H1N1 influenza pandemic in the United States constitutes a national emergency.
This is quite interesting considering that only 5,000 people have reportedly died from H1N1 in the past year, while more than 36,000 die annually from seasonal flu! Really! What’s the emergency? Oh yeah, Obamacare MUST get passed so we must create panic in the system!

YOU hit that nail RIGHT on the HEAD!!!!! Create the problem so HE can initiate the solution…yeah..righttttttttttttt.
…but his daughters won’t be getting the vaccine. Something a little hinky here.
My kids won’t be getting the vaccine, I call bs on it. It wasn’t even tested properly, and with him upping it to a National Emergency, he has indeed pushed it on the track of…”If your kids don’t get the vaccine, they cannot come to school.” It’s all about lining the pockets of Pfizer, the recipient of a boondoggle of an eminent domain fraud in New London Connecticut, a known money thrower to dems. This guy is a joke!!
Sorry, your hammer missed the nail. To your point, if he hadn’t done this, he would have been faulted for inaction.
