True Lies by Kerry...

John Kerry and his wireless puppet John Edwards have been streaking around the nation blaming Bush43 for the shortage of Flu shots for this season. As a proponent of a modified 'HillaryCare' this is obnoxious. It is because of Hillary and her husband (you may remember him) and the Vaccines for Children Program they created in 1994.
The VCP was pushed by the WH and pasted through the last Democratic Congress in 1994. It provided for the government to buy up most of the vaccines at fixed prices, below the market. Essentially, this program federalized the United States vaccine market, at relatively low prices fixing profits and costs for manufacturers. Since the program was inacted and because of later efforts to limit liability which was fought and defeated by the DEMS in Congress Manufacturers have fled the U.S.
The Price Controls on vaccines have done what price controls always do--limit supply! Though the name indicated 'Children', it in fact also includes many adult vaccines as well. These price controls and federally created limits on profit have for the fourth year in a row caused shortages in supply of vaccines.
This is exactly what liberals do not understand about economics. The maufacturers who had many facilities in the US have due to these limitations and litigation fears moved off shore. In fact it was a U. S. owned facility in England who was priviously in the US that had the British health authorities shut down the plant and order the distruction of the already made tainted supplies.
Yet it is Sen. Kerry who claims President Bush is pusing jobs overseas, while he should just look in the mirror. It is Sen. Kerry who has blamed the President for the shortage while it was Senator Kerry who helped stop the Presidents efforts to streamline the regulatory process on Vaccines and Pharmaceuticals.
Senator Kerry is again using SCARE tactics to try to win the White House. They have tried to scare seniors on Social Security, Vaccines, Medicare, and Prescription Drugs. Not only is the Senator desperate, he is lying to the American People.
