COVIDiots

Generally an unmoderated forum for discussion of pretty much any topic. The focus however, is usually politics.

Yeppers. And not only seat belts. Same thing about getting rid of cigarette smokers, fluorinated water, minimum school drop-out age, yada. Same ol' same ol'.

Interesting too, if you read the arguments against passage of the Fair Labor Standards Act in 1938 (minimum wage and overtime), it's the same as they're saying today about raising minimum wage. 83 years of being wrong and they're still pushing the same lame line. The only thing nobody has said out loud publicly about raising the minimum was said back in 1938, For example Congressman Mark Wilcox (D-FL-4) stated during
floor debate:
We may rest assured, therefore, that when we turn over to a federal bureau or board the power to fix wages, it will prescribe the same wage for the Negro that it prescribes for the [W]hite man. Now, such a plan might work in some sections of the United States but those of us who know the true situation know that it just will not work in the South.

And same 83 years of dem failing to attach these minimums to inflation, leaving us in this perpetual over and over cycle is almost as bad as doing nothing.

Their Crisis' Is 'Our Problem': Washington Grapples With Idaho COVID Cases

Spokane County high-60's vax. Kootenai County (ID) <40%.
They should put up border guards.

Next week we're off to the other side of the mountains, way far from Idunno and what we refer to as Coeur d'Covid.
Whatcom County 77%. Skagit County 68%.

It's sad, really. The first year we stayed around here, north Idaho was pretty nice. Coeur D'Alene is a very pretty and fun town, and even though you know there are Arayan Brothers and other assorted scum behind the bushes and under rocks, as long as you stayed along US 95 and 2 between CDA and Canada it was sufficiently touristy to be able to ignore. Not unlike driving through Appalachia and enjoying beautiful scenery without really seeing the abject poverty a half mile off the road. But a few Trump years and a covid pandemic and the place is just not visitable. The scum is now roaring around in their oversize tire trucks in mini-convoys with their flags flying. Saw a pic from the Kootenai fair - big crowds, no masks, lots of side arms.
There are reasons that the Aryan Nations thought that they'd be welcomed as far back as the 1980s.

It's funny that RepuQs are suddenly just fine with sending sick folks across the border.

Yet another Florida-Food Poisoning connection.

Might be a warning to bring a full supply of MRE's if I ever visit FL again.

CC can be annoying, but I wouldn't go so far as call him an "asshole".

The pretend city councilman with covid is definitely an asshole, as he had already demonstrated before getting sick. I suppose there are other terms to describe ignorance with malice, but "asshole" works for me.

:thumbup:

Council rep Hunter Pepper used his position of authority to literally end lifesaving mask policy and has also publicly supported anti-vaxxers. I can't imagine why whiny Useless defends a Decatur, AL COVIDiot asshole like that, but it absolutely makes him a COVIDiot asshole, too.

I guess “illogical, unreasonable, and self-centered” Useless is reneging on his vow to quit attacking me. No biggie, but it’s perfect that he picked such a stupid attack during our pandemic. He definitely did not “Succeed anyway.”

Choosing to avoid a covid vax for oneself may be stupid, but it doesn't make them an asshole. Spreading easily debunked misinformation from one's publicly elected office and creating unnecessary risk and actual illness for those they're elected to ummm "represent" is definitely assholery in the top degree. No different from somebody getting elected to city council and proclaiming that Flint water is pure, that there are no Florida sink-holes, that building codes are suggestions, and that kids eating Tide pods is just simple fun.

Ah, but just about everyone getting the jab is required if we can ever hope to get the upper hand on Covid-19.

The holdouts are just being pro-pandemic.

I handed out Tide pods and single beers on Halloween. So far nobody knows where they came from. It's a real kick to see kids foaming at the mouth and chugging cans of Budweiser. They can't get enough of it.
