My fever is back. Just when I thought I had this thing licked, it crept back in on me today and I've spent a good bit of my day in the recliner in front of the television.
Tonight I watched a new episode of Law and Order. I'm a big fan of mysteries so I expected to at least be entertained. Let's just say it didn't work out that way. That liberal Obama mouthpiece called Law and Order had an episode where they charged a mother for MURDER because she didn't vaccinate her child for measles. The theory being, that the unvaccinated boy gave measles to a little girl and the little girl later died from measles. There were a plethora of plot holes. You could drive several 18-wheelers through them. For example, how did they know the little girl caught the measles from THAT boy? There were three other unvaccinated people that had measles, why weren't they equally culpable? How did they know the little boy didn't catch it from the little girl? You get the idea. It was ridiculous.
The propaganda during the "trial" for government control of our children was mind boggling. Not ONE mention of why a parent might choose to delay vaccinations. Not ONE mention of autism, just a condescending medical examiner saying that 'rarely there are complications'. That was IT!! That was the only presentation of the other side. Not ONE mention that the government doesn't have the right to force us to vaccinate. Not ONE mention that the government can not tell us how to raise our children!! There was even a snide comment about homeschooling in passing but they didn't 'go there' on this episode.
I'm going to stop now because my fever is sky high and I should be in the bed. So much for watching a little tv to get good and sleepy for bed. Thanks a lot, NBC.
By the way, who can I sue for this swine flu that is hanging on me like a cheap suit? I need someone to blame.

TV is a total waste land. I used to at least watch the news, but that is so lopsided now it is not worth the effort!
Sorry to hear you are sick. Were you joking are do you really have the swine flu?????????
I was joking about swine flu... I think. It really is acting like flu, it feels like flu and it won't go away!! We officially have "a flu-like illness".
Whatever it is, it's bad and it's getting on my nerves!
Sorry to hear you're feeling bad. We don't have piped-in tv. We have a tv and dvd/vcr player that we watch a select few movies on. We sometimes watch TLC or Discovery at my mom's house, but we rarely go there. We like the reality shows; Kids by the Dozen, 17 Kids and Counting. And Animal Planet. We don't care for the other stuff.
Sorry to hear you are sick!! It's even harder to be sick when you're a mommy.
BTW, the cake you decorated was GORGEOUS. I can't believe you did that with a sick child on your hip. I couldn't have made one that pretty with no one in the kitchen, but me.
Get well soon!!
Thanks, JenT! We got rid of our cable a few years ago. With our antenna we can get three channels. We go to my mom's house to watch the Duggar's too!
We don't watch a lot of TV except for times like this when we're all sick (which thankfully, isn't very often) so I haven't seen a lot of these shows and the blatant agenda behind this one was shocking!
I stopped watching TV when I discovered blogging. I only have so much time to waste and this is my favorite way to do it.
Quite honestly, there is not much even worth watching anymore.
We don't have television. It sounds like we aren't missing much! I can't believe they are so blatant with their propaganda! It shouldn't surprise me!
I think you have to take TV for what it is...completely unreal! As long as you do that, it's fine LOL
there was an episode, along the same lines, on a show called
"The Practice"
why are they so afraid to show both sides to the coin?

I talked to a friend of mine at GHEA yesterday. She said she and her hubby got into a FIGHT over this show. She told me that they actually like the show, but the night of this show, she got mad, flipped over and said "I am not watching this" but actually clipped her hubby across the chin, as she flipped over in bed. She WAS SO ANGRY! Her hubby didn't appreciate being "clocked" in the chin....
So, my dear, you aren't the only one. We don't watch the show either, so glad we didn't see it.
What an awful, awful show.
