The Daily Paul has WON THE AFTERNOON with this post, from yesterday, about how Donald Rumsfeld tried to make the 1976 Swine Flu an issue — INVENTED IT? — to win his boss, Gerald Ford, the presidency.
The Paultards link to this funny website called “Whale.to”:
“The Rumsfeld history starts in 1976, when a military recruit in New Jersey died from a flu that experts speculated might be the “swine flu” virus of 1918 pandemic fame. As Sargent tells it, Rumsfeld, who was then and is again the nation’s secretary of defense, made the imminent “swine flu” a political issue to add some spark to the campaign of President Ford, an interim leader without a cause. At Rumsfeld’s urging, the administration would ensure that “every man, woman and child” was vaccinated. Huge amounts of vaccine were produced and distributed quickly.”
And now secessionist President of Texas Rick Perry has all of it.

Rummy = Randall Flagg?
“Swine flu? I’m too fast for that to catch me…” Spine tingling last words of an upstanding young black man shortly before he was struck down in his prime by a gubmint bio-weapons program gone horribly awry. It was meant for the Muslins. Oh, God, it was meant for the Muslins! and not us… not us…
Man, people in the ’70s sure did fuck a lot. Thanks for the herpes and AIDS, baby boomers.
Legionnaire’s Disease is just waiting in the wings, people.
And then when the ‘fatness epidemic’ started, Rumsfeld made sure huge amounts of aspartame were produced and distributed quickly.
Again, proof that every bad thing in the universe can be traced in Six Degrees or less to Richard Nixon….
Well if it’s in the “Daily Paul” it must be true…
A cousin of mine who taught school had to get the swine flu vaccine and developed Guillain-Barré syndrome. He ended his days in a nursing home unable to even feed himself.
Thanks again, Rumsfeld.
Wait a minute, THERE’S A DAILY PAUL?!?!?!?!?!?!111?1
So, the Swine Flu is not a secret Muslin strategy to impose Sharia law spread by Obama on his trip to Mexico, but instead a secret Republican conspiracy to get John McCain elected that took too long to work?
I seem to recall that the Ford Administration backed off from the swine flu shots when the vaccinations started killing people.
man, lyndon larouche is kicking himself that he didn’t think of that one first.
i love how the conspiracy folks are saying that the NWO is going to sell us on the north american union by loosing a bioweapon that’s going to get people scrambling to CLOSE the southern border. (?)
now take me. i happen to believe that JFK was assassinated by US Naval Intelligence because he knew too much about the time when Bobby Kennedy showed Marilyn Monroe the “sport model” UFO from beta reticulae they’re keeping at area 51 because bobby wanted to fuck marilyn and hey, what impresses a chick more than secret UFOs? and then bobby AND marilyn turn up dead? it’s an open shut case.
my point is, even *I* keep my story straight, at least.
ManchuCandidate: Oooo, nice Stephen King reference. The Walkin Dude.
“Help Re-elect John McCain to the US Senate” ads? Seriously, do these people know where they are putting their advertising dollars?
NOOOO! I has figured it all out! I HAS! I HAS!
The Ronald Reagan Records were/are?? supposen to be released around now and and and in those records he talks about POPULATION CONTROL (11 pages worth even, also)!!!!!! Sumbitch planned this!
I think the records will show that the earthquake was planed also.
Lazy Media: My thoughts exactly. Jeebus, that grandma passed it along to the mailman, the paperboy and the vet in one morning.
The dude’s mom totally killed Betty! Holy Shit! Where was Obama? Golfing on Air Force One as it circles the Statue of Librety.
Holy crap, why don’t they make PSA’s like that any more? Those are awesome! They’re like the friggin’ Grindhouse trailers .
It has to be a conspiracy. There’s no way it would be a natural result of factory farms, international transport of unquaranteened animals, air travel, Republicans in Texas fucking pigs, and crippled public health systems. It was Rumsfeld!!!!111!!11!!
My mommy taught me never to point at retarded people and laugh, but I’m not sure if I can keep it under control much longer… please Dear Lord Above, give me strength…
HA HA!!!! LOOK AT THE FUCKING RETARDS!!! GA HA HA HA HA HAAAAAAAAAAA!!!
oops. trucknutz.
The Paultards should hook up with Jenny McCarthy and Jim Carey because, despite any credible evidence to suggest that the flu shot causes autism, the flu shot totally causes autism. Send it to Alex Jones!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
that old lady was “givin’ it” to an awful lot of people…people of all sexes and races and social standing… it’s true what they say about old people whoring it up then… even back in the fuzzy color days of the early 70s. warms the cockles, it does.
“But when I found out about Rumsfeld’s connection, that was it for me.
Not touching Nutrasweet or Tamiflu with a 10 ft pole”
It’s right there in the comments, people, so it must be true!
Man, there’s a hell of a lot of kissin going on in those PSAs. Rated PG 13, y’all!
bitchincamaro: To be sure, Rumsfeld makes money everytime you buy Tamiflu. That whole vote with your dollar thing. Plus, the window you have to use the stuff and have it be effective is so short that it is nearly useless. You have to take it before you have any major symptoms. Plus, Rumsfeld turns anything he touches to shit and death.
My Paultard friend has been crapping himself for two days about swine flu. I keep telling him to calm the fuck down. There is no grand conspiracy to create a super flu. Nature does that shit way better then we can. I’ve worked in biomed labs. It’s hard enough to get experiments to work consistently. If you want to create a killer swine flu, it’s faster to fill the Southeast with pig factory farms then to build it in the lab.
That web site is a wealth of information the MSM doesn’t want you to know about:
Medical Politics
Allopathy
Death by Allopathy
God as Allopathy
Toxic Psychiatry
Vaccination
Covert vaccine agendas
Medical Mind Control
The Vivisection Racket
Medical Mafia
Medical Charity Hoax
Human Experiments
Death Towers
Genocide
Covert genocide
Chemtrails
And then Dotty with the heart condition died…to a rather upbeat soundtrack. They could have shown a little more pathos. Though maybe by giving it to her chihuahua she was the source of the Mexican Schwein-Hund strain.
Funny story. Some people got the shot and ended up paralyzed instead. Also, truncated cankles.
Woodwards Friend: What does it say about LaRouche that Ron Paul is actually the younger, sexier option? Nothing! It just means the crank demographic is getting a whole lot more superficial. Bastards! Nothing can stand in the way of my wristwatch nuclear reactor! —LaRouchePAC ‘09
2druk2phluq: But ain’t the Messicans just Catholic Muslins?
mookworthjwilson: If it shows up in the Enquirer, I will then be a believer.
Where in the Constitution does it say that the gubmint has to pay for vaccinations? Wake up, sheeple! Rumsfeld is a socialist, teabag him!
On the Tonight Show in 1976, Johnny Carson called the Swine Flue shot “A cure for no known disease.” In a Karnak skit. The hoax status of the disease was well-known then. I suspect Paul’s people are good at drawing conclusions from events they vaguely recall from when gas was under a buck and the price of gold was always fresh on people’s minds.
This must be how Tom Lehrer died.
Lazy Media: The pill, no AIDS, drugs everywhere, yeah it was good times.
Did that basketball player just say that he’s too high for the swine flu to catch him? Or am I too stoned? Racists.
There was a hilarious SNL skit where people at a restaurant having drinks turned into pigs.That was a very long time ago. I already had swine flu three weeks back. I thought I was going to fucking die but I just stayed put on the couch with a case of paper towels,six boxes of Sudafed, some aspirin and Wonkette and I was cured completely.Do not be afraid Wonkette can cure Swine Flu.It’s a fact you are reading right here in the comments.
Swine Flu? More like Swine Fever. It’s coming from ever-more-virulent Talking Pigs having buttseks with sheeple. That’s where it makes the jumps. Glenn-or-Glenda Beck drives them wild with his porcine ‘come hither’ look and they get the vapors…down there.
