Too bad almost 3 thousand vaccines were left while so many people were turned away. My wife is a hospital worker(nurs aid) and was turned away. Hospital does not give it to all workers either. I guess indigent and prisoners are first in line. We aslo have the insurance but no doctor of ours has vaccine. There is the test of socialized medicine, where some burocrat will let some in and keep other out based on his whim. Hail Obama

Your comment really makes no sense. Many people did not attend due to fears of long lines...others simply do not want to risk getting sick by mingling within large crowds. This has nothing to do with socialized medicine. If you believe so, please back up you statements with facts.
And yes...hail Obama for at least trying to clean up the mess Bush created over the last 8 years.

Daily Horoscope for November 24

Aries

The Moon enters spiritual Pisces and your twelfth house of endings, marking the beginning of your lunar low cycle. It's time to slow down, relax, and review the events of the past month. Some of you may react to this transit by becoming anxious and paranoid... if you haven't figured out that you are in control over almost nothing in your life, you might not like what you feel. Use this time to understand what 'let go and let God' really means.
