Vaccinations always seem to be a controversial issue and one that can be a difficult decision for many parents in New Jersey.
Obama recently came to New Jersey to raise money for his campaign and enjoyed dinner at Bon Jovi’s house. While traveling to a fund raiser a group of about 50 people rallied nearby for parental choice on vaccinations.

Wow! I can’t even imagine having dinner at Bon Jovi’s house. I agree that vaccinations can be a tough call. Even though I am about to get a few myself for a job assignment, I am always worried about side effects.

I wouldn’t ever want to go to dinner at Bon Jovi’s, I’d probably be so nervous I’d choke!

Yeah, Obama’s a Rock Star, all right. But Sarah Palin sounds like Marge from “Fargo.” Ja, shoore, you betcha! As far as vaccinations are concerned, I understand the parents who are worried about the onset of autism, etc. But I get a tad nervous for my own flesh & blood when I hear that a kid doesn’t have his shots.
On a completely different note, if you have some time tomorrow, drop on by my place. We’re playing the Silly Sunday Sweepstakes, and Sharing All That Caption Love!
