Forget 9-11 --- We Must Invade Aspirin Producers!

Sometimes it helps to put things in perspective. Each year (as Worldwatch points out) more than twice the number of Americans die from taking "non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as aspirin" than died in the 9-11 attack. I imagine that the aspirin industry gave more in campaign contributions to the Republicans than did the al Qaeda, thus Bush's reluctance to put certain pharmaceutical CEO's into Cuban detention camps.
