If only there was some sort of center for disease control that could assist the American public in combating illness. Surely, if such a center did exist, the president wouldn't hamstring them in some way in which may prevent farmers from taking action against infectious diseases destroying their livestock.

Oh, would you look at that, the president did hamstring the CDC by halting regular release of their scientific reports, and so it is, in fact, on him that bird flu is causing egg prices to soar.
