    Egypt has begun a mass slaughter of thousands of pigs in an effort to prevent swine flu spreading. The cull was going ahead despite there being no cases of swine flu in Egypt.


    Wow. That's sad. They're overreacting even more than the guy who cancelled his vacation to Orlando.

    Let me guess...in two months they'll be begging other countries for food support because they wiped out all their livestock on a scared whim.

    I agree that people's reactions can be quite funny but killing all those pigs isn't funny in the least. Someone really needs to take a step back and think about it before they do it. Maybe they should test the pigs for the virus before they just kill them.

    I wouldn't have to be ethnocentric if other countries weren't so stupid.

    I like our president, but I have to admit one of the funniest things about this whole scare is his request for $1.5 billion.

    We're not sure what we're dealing with, but we know $1.5 billion will fix it. WTF?

    Well, he has to ask just so people will shut the fuck up. A republican would have done the same thing.

    It's a political move, not a party issue.
