ââ?¬Å?National Emergencyââ?¬Â Declarations | Christine Smith's Blog
By Darren Wolfe
Obama has declared a â??national emergencyâ? over the H1N1 â??swineâ? flu. The main threat I see is government"not flu. But that's the way it's often been with â??national emergencies.â? I view this latest â??crisisâ? as yet another excuse for big government to come in and supposedly save the day. Predictable, but nonetheless ominous, in my opinion.
