The administration can't get flu vaccines out to people.  But these folks want the government to run the entire health care system. 

Reports the New York Times:

The moment a novel strain of swine flu emerged in Mexico last spring, President Obama instructed his top advisers that his administration would not be caught flat-footed in the event of a deadly pandemic. Now, despite months of planning and preparation, a vaccine shortage is threatening to undermine public confidence in government, creating a very public test of Mr. Obama's competence.

Don't worry.  Next time they will do better!  We should trust them with the health care for nearly 308 million Americans.
