You are denying facts because they are not convenient for your political wishes. The NYT would never print the truth if it would conflict with their aim of electing Kerry. I see little fact, lots of innuendo in your post. Fact.......in August, Chiron's plant in the UK ran into trouble with Brit. authorities. At that time, Chiron reported there would be a shortfall of the flu vaccine. The size of the shortfall was unknown. What did the Bush administration do about it? Squat! Flash forward to October....all of Chiron's Brit. plant output has been shut down. A major crisis ensues........finally the Bush administration begins to act as the flu season starts in the US. In the work I've done, someone's head would roll over this one. Has anyone been fired? Nope. Is it likely anyone will be fired? Nope. The whole thing is a telling example of the incompetency of this administration. So please spare the conspiracy theories originating from a GOP, non think tank in Dallas. The fact is that a problem was reported in August and the Bush administration did nothing until the problem worsened in October. Just to entertain myself, I tested you hypothesis. I typed into google [hillary vaccine site:nytimes.com 1993]. It returned 3 hits. None of them mention the 1993 act that Hillary championed. Biased? Even you cannot deny it. BTW - Yesterday the two candidates both gave stump speeches. CNN was too busy to carry the Bush speech but dutifully carried the Kerry speech. Fox carried both. Please explain how this is proof of bias. I don't know.......I don't read CNN on a regular basis. I can tell you that their news show was on the tv at the gym and both speeches were discussed. According to your perspective, CNN must have screwed up! ;~)
