Hokie Joe and the 'Rona

Over the weekend, I had this exchange with Hokie Joe, one of my readers, concerning Covid-19. 

Hokie Joe: Hey Barney, where are they giving tests for Covid-19? Supposedly a rash is a symptom. I've had a rash the past few weeks. It itches like hell and isn't goiong away. It isn't venereal warts or even in that area. It's on my damn elbow. No other symptoms. Do you know where they are giving the test?

Yes, Coordinated Health at 3100 Emrick Blvd. Opens at 10 am Monday. It's by the Outback. I have a rash on my elbow myself, but in my case, it is a STD.  

Hokie Joe: Thanks. I'll keep you posted.

Hokie Joe: Wait, Who the hell were you with that you have venereal warts on your elbow? And how do you get them there?

I watch a lot of porn. 

Hokie Joe: JUST IN CASE, do they have any Herpes cream ... just in case. 

You'll have to ask Deputy Kunkel tomorrow when he gives you your test. Make sure that swab goes in your nose and not up your ass.

What I see and read with my OWN eyes, not through the lens of what some talking head tells me, predicts a much different story. The excitement for Trump on the ground is incredible. Thousands turn out in every community he visits. On the other hand, Biden is unable to draw more than 100, even in majority Democrat communities.

The evidence indicating a Trump win is very convincing. Can anyone explain how such a huge enthusiasm gap translate to a Biden win? Certainly, ballot tampering and eligibility fraud could help Biden. I do believe attempts to steal the election will be the highest in American history. If successful, then what?

In the meantime, nearly 400,000 early Pennsylvania votes have been thrown out already as duplicates, most of those probably innocent errors . . . . we should hope!

In what appears to be an attempt at "humor", your insensitivity to the plight of the victims perpetrated by Brian Kunkel is reprehensible. I suggest that you should visit CVC of the Lehigh Valley. Maybe your "humor" may change to empathy and compassion. I know a couple of the victims and I would shudder to see their reaction if they read this article.

6:41, Think you are posting your talking points on wrong story, then you'll complain I'm deleting you.

You are correct, Bernie, my comment went to the wrong post. Sorry. Still deserving of views, though, and I thank you for posting that reply. Hopefully, someone will answer the question posed!

@6:41 - see a doctor, you are clearly hallucinating, or simply need to get out a little more if that is truly the world you're seeing. You may also be in dire of need of a sedative in a 2 weeks as your world is going to be crumbling down around you and it appears you are going to have a very difficult time adjusting to a reality where Trump loses the Electoral College as badly as he does the popular vote.

6:41 sees the world through Hannity's eyes and the Trump flag waver gatherings. "Look how many of us are gathered on this corner, and no Biden supporters in sight. We are winning!"

Regarding "votes" you claim were rejected as duplicates:
Try reading something other than the FOX website.
They were applications, not votes. Those voters will still be receiving mail-in ballots. Not sorry to burst your bubble.

I went to the testing place today to get checked and told them about my rash. They kind of chuckled and said "Hi Hokie Joe, we were expecting you". I asked them how they knew I would be there and they said "we read Bernies Blog". They said "bend over" and when I ASKED THEM WHY THEY SAID "We're giving you an I.Q. Test". Bastards
Hokie Joe
I never did get tested.

From today's Politico, an article on women voters "fleeing" Trump in Pennsylvania, in which Northampton's GOP chair blames Covid hysteria:

"Gloria Lee Snover, chair of Pennsylvania’s Northampton County Republican Party, said there are many women — mainly blue-collar or business owners — who support Trump in her county, which flipped from supporting Obama to Trump in 2016.

But “there is” a gender gap in the state, she acknowledged, particularly when it comes to suburban white women.

“When I look on Facebook, the women that support Biden are a lot of middle-aged suburban white women who are talking about Covid constantly and their fear of it,” she said. “I’ll be honest: They’re obsessed with Covid. Most of them I know are really into Covid. They think the world’s ending with Covid. They’re in their house with Covid. They’re worried about Covid.”

Despite his struggles in the state, Trump has not visited Northampton County, a key swing region: “We’re kind of a red-headed stepchild to them. I kind of don’t really like it,” said Snover."
