Religious holding up HHS nomination during Swine flu epidemic
Once again, religious organizations and their anti-science policies are working overtime to the extreme detriment of every citizen in the US. This time they are holding up the nomination of Gov. Sebelius to the post of Secretary of Health and Human Services and right at the time when Europe is telling its citizens not to travel to the Swine flu capital of the world, North America. The markets are falling because of the potential impact the pandemic flu could have on the world’s economic recovery. Why? Because of the pro-woman political stance of the nominee who is in favor of a woman having control over her own body instead of religious wingnuts.
In addition, the anti-science religious bigots also succeeded in stopping funding for pandemic flu preparation in the recently passed stimulus funding. Just as they criticized volcano monitoring right before Anchorage’s volcano exploded, they also killed funding for the HHS to prepare for a pandemic flu right when a new pandemic strain of flu afflicts the North American continent.
Yea, it is real important for everyone reading this to go to our website and contribute to our efforts to ensure that the anti-science religious bigotted wingnuts are never elected in charge of our country ever again. They have to be stopped some how and this is the best way we can figure to elect secular and non-religious candidates to office.
