Obama: Family 'will stand in line like everybody else' for vaccine

Was this a Freudian slip? Is Obama saying everyone else will stand in line for the vaccines, because they're mandatory? But notice also that he says that he will do whatever his HHS Secretary and CDC director tells him to do, which is to imply that you should trust the government in whatever it tells you. This of course ignores the fact that the government told people to get the swine flu vaccine in 1976, and tens of thousands were killed, paralyzed, or severely injured from their vaccine, while only one person actually died from the virus. Regardless, anyone who's been up to speed on the myriad warnings and dangers associated with these untested vaccines would have a hard time believing that Obama, as privy to this knowledge as the rest of us - moreso even, is actually going to inject his own children with this poison. But then again, who knows what these lunatics are capable of.

    CNN -

    The nation's first family will not get any special dispensation when it comes to the much awaited vaccine for the H1N1 virus, President Obama tells CNN.

    Asked about plans for his family's health in an interview that airs Sunday on CNN's State of the Union, the president said he intends to consult with his Health and Human Services Secretary and the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

    "And whatever they tell me to do, I will do," Obama told CNN Chief National Correspondent John King.

    "[H]ere's what I guarantee you," Obama also told King, "We want to get vaccinated. We think it's the right thing to do. We will stand in line like everybody else. And when folks say it's our turn, that's when we'll get it."

    The president said high-risk populations for the H1N1 virus — like health care workers, pregnant women — and children will be first in line for vaccinations against the disease, also known as the "swine flu." So he speculated that his two daughters, who are both under the age of 12, would likely get vaccinated before him.

    "I suspect that I may come fairly far down the line," Obama said.
