Heard on the news that there are 6 suspected cases in the "Free" State.
Any confirmation or update? |

FREE STATE WHAT STATE ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? [/quote] The Free State: This nickname originated in an article written by Hamilton Owens, the editor or the Baltimore Sun. In 1923, a Georgia Congressman, William D. Upshaw, attacked Maryland as a traitor to the union because it never passed a State enforcement act supporting Prohibition. Hamilton Owens' article, "The Maryland Free State" was a mocking response to Mr. Upshaw, suggesting that Maryland should secede from the Union before acting to prohibit the sale of liquor. This article was never published but Mr. Owens referred to Maryland as "The Free State" in later editorials. We are: [size=6The Old Line State][/size=6] F the rest! |

I can't figure why everyone(media/.gov) is going so crazy about this.
Is the .gov hiding something, or using it to catapult us into something or what. 150 cases, no American deaths. Most, if not all don't need hospitalization. Hmmmm I do think its funny that the news is saying infected areas instead of mexico. |

My sister pointed out that the "news" media may be using this mega-pandemic as a diversionary tactic. From what? Only time will tell.
Maybe the chinese avian flu cross mutated to pigs. Anybody remember the avian flu scare?
