You own views are appreciated, especially if they differ from mine. But remember, commenting is a privilege, not a right. I will delete personal attacks or off-topic remarks at my discretion. Comments that play into the tribalism that has consumed this nation will be declined. So will comments alleging voter fraud unless backed up by concrete evidence. If you attack someone personally, I expect you to identify yourself. I will delete criticisms of my comment policy, vulgarities, cut-and-paste jobs from other sources and any suggestion of violence towards anyone. I will also delete sweeping generalizations about mainstream parties or ideologies, i.e. identity politics. My decisions on these matters are made on a case by case basis, and may be affected by my mood that day, my access to the blog at the time the comment was made or other information that isn’t readily apparent.
It's only like 1 person, it's going away tomorrow as the temp will hit nearly 65 degrees. A hoax I tell ya. I'm the evil genius and this is really impacting my golf game.
ReplyDeleteTrump virus lies:
ReplyDeleteThe coronavirus would weaken “when we get into April.
The outbreak would be temporary: It’s going to disappear. One day it’s like a miracle—it will disappear.
Blame Obama.
The Trump White House “inherited” a “broken,” “bad,” and “obsolete” test for the coronavirus. It only came to be in late 2019.
And on and on and on and on...
“Happy Good Friday”
ReplyDeleteTrump is the reason no future un-successful business person should hold the highest office in the land!
ReplyDeleteHow can anyone have the slightest doubt that Dr. No Responsibility Trump will lead us out of this wilderness?
ReplyDelete500,000+ Covid-19 cases throughout the United States & 18,780 Deaths. How many cases and deaths due to the ignorance of the Liar-In-Chief? Has Dr Trump mentioned even one name of any dead persons? Crickets!
ReplyDeleteAmericans are opening their eyes to what’s REALLY been going on here. The roll-out, the response. The political landscape will change significantly next November.
ReplyDeleteI think all those Rocks of the Right who post drivel here should congregate frequently in order to share their hoarded alcohol and breathe on each other. They'll either further herd immunity or thin the herd.
ReplyDeleteI guess with the Local Meeting of the TDS support group canceled because of the lock downs, those poor souls with nothing else in their lives have found their way here.
ReplyDeleteFacts are stubborn things
ReplyDeleteAnyone who even uses the term "TDS" is showing their hand: Totally Dumb Sumbitch.
ReplyDelete@10:52 - How much kool-aid did you hoard? Do you realize the impact on lives Trump is having? Is your's any better now? Can't Trump just STFU and let the experts guide us?
ReplyDeleteTDS is treatable with abstinence from left leaning media sources, a steady stream of Brietbart and plenty of American made single malt scotch.
ReplyDeleteUncle Sumbitch, that you?
ReplyDeleteIt makes perfect sense that alcoholism is closely related to support for The Hairdo in Chief.
ReplyDeleteThe Scotch is to drown out the wailing of triggered alarmists like Gretel Tuneberg and her soy boy army of shrieking malcontents.

Doesn't seem to be working, does it?

ReplyDeleteYes, I do recognize your problem. That in and of itself isn't going to help you though.
But maybe I can at least save you some money.
On your next shrink visit, have him/her focus on this for the best bang for your buck.

So where are the tests we were promised so long ago?
ReplyDeleteTrump didn't start taking any real action until the market crashed. Only then did he stop the BS of how the pandemic was under control and would be gone.
ReplyDeleteHe also realized that with each death there was a possibility that he would lose more than one vote come November. Multiple family members of a dead person blaming Trump would only lose votes.
That's why he is attempting to rewrite the history of his inaction, while blaming others for his slow response.
When this virus, in reality a form of Bio-Weapon, is under control, our next concern will be about VOTER FRAUD. There is a pattern here that’s plain to see.
ReplyDeleteLet the name-calling begin!
The weekend after Trump was elected the LV Tea Party celebrated in front of the Bethlehem City Hall. The leader of the local Chamber of Commerce wrote an essay in the Morning Call stating that he was "giddy" over the election of Trump. Now so many businesses are going to fail that they won't be able to pay their chamber dues. If the Chamber Of Commerce fails maybe some of their personnel can get jobs in the Whitehouse serving drinks and mopping the floor.
ReplyDeleteYou people are wack-jobs!
ReplyDelete#1 I hope they have the fans turned off on the tier.
#2 I hope they’re delivering the food on styrofoam trays. Not like they did on the women’s unit.
#3. I hope they’re sanitizing the Officer’s keys. If not, then what they’re doing is pointless.
Godspeed to everyone and I Hope everyone is safe and healthy.
The Republican Party is on the wrong side of history.
ReplyDeleteTrump Denied - People Died
ReplyDeleteLooking for a fascinating read? Start looking into the conduct of Michigan’s Governor and her Executive Orders in response to the virus. It is absolutely Twilight Zone stuff. Extreme government control of citizens. Hard to believe this kind of stuff has come to America. I truly believe something will break out in ugly protest both in Detroit and Lansing.
ReplyDeleteAnd what source not dominated by Nazis sets forth this information?
ReplyDeleteConservative Treehouse. Best real information site I’ve ever found.
ReplyDeleteWay to stay on topic. Most of the political BS on this post should be deleted. Fuck the inmates, right? As for my fellow officers, we didn't sign up for this. We're used to being disrespected. The administration does an excellent job of that. But we'll show up and do our job. We'll protect the inmates, which protects the public. Even whiners like the trolls posting here. And I'll pray for all of us.
ReplyDeletei care 11:01. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteignore these assholes.
This post is not specific to any American political party. However, it can bring more context to eac of us,
ReplyDeleteStunning, frightening transcript of Secretary of State Mike Pompeo’s speech to National Governor’s Assn. delivered in Early March this year. You can find it with this much information. It describes the influence China has on our nation’s Governors and institutions under them.
Yes, this is essentially off-topic. Although every reader of this wonderful blog is consumed in trying to understand how something of this magnitude can happen to our nation. The effect of decisions being made in effort to manage our prisons, hospitals, etc. can most definitely be linked.
I respect our prison staff persons who go in every day to work in an environment that has always been dangerous, and will probably become even more so. Add this group to your ‘Thank you for your service list.”
0741... Well said, and thank you.
ReplyDeleteWhy are NPR reporters commenting here?
ReplyDelete@ 10:24: How would you know due to your only watching the Faux daily variety show? No reporting, all instincts in their empty cranium!
