We have Had Enough Lockdown

Take off the masks and remove the “social distancing” circles from the floors. Open the schools, liberate college campuses, fill the restaurants and the gyms and the churches and the salons. Enough. If 2020 wasn’t twisted enough, the current political imbroglio centers around a verboten visit to a California boutique for a routine blow-out. (Snip) The incident is the latest in a series of “rules for thee but not for me” gut punches from the ruling class; whether it’s mask-free trips to the park or crowded funerals for anointed heroes or casual meals munched indoors, the government-ordered shutdowns apply to everyone except the sadists running government who order said shutdowns.

In the most populous county in Kansas, the cases per 100,000 is heavily skewd by ethnicity. Whites have 1,006 cases per 100,000 people. "Other" (Asian?) have 932 cases per 100,000 people. Blacks have 1,917 cases per 100,000 people. Hispanics have 3,448 cases per 100,000 people. Genetics? Behavior? Rates of pre-existing health problems? Seems like behaviors, but no data.

With the record heat you'd think it would get killed off. Maybe it is and they're just not telling us.

#1, that is the consistent pattern here in all the California counties that are 'restricted' as well. I don't have any stats at hand, but the pattern is clear! (You could add in the pockets of 'homeless' denizens, too.) Meanwhile, we're all suffering because of it! Must be nice to be able to enter a restaurant for a meal....I'm not sure I'd remember how to behave anymore.

Fact is, this virus isn't easy to get. One has a better chance of getting the flu than the Chinese virus. It's seems a matter of chance with a number of factors deciding if one gets really sick, or barely notices it at all. Even with an underlying condition it's not certain one will get infected to the point of needing medical attention. Since we know for sure the elderly are most affected by this virus, let's take precautions when we are near them, but life is a daily test of taking chances. Legislating behavior to avoid getting a virus which won't make the majority of people ill is just an exercise in controlling people because you can.

Where I live in western Colorado, folks have taken matters into their own hands - using common sense. Most folks have had enough of these useless masks. At my fitness center, most wear mask only over their mouth. At the grocery store, folks are blowing off the one-way traffic signs for the aisles. At the restaurants, off come the masks the second we sit down at our table. Churches are wide open. In-school teaching started 3 weeks ago. The only covid cases are those who bring their germs with them from out of state. And, alas, we have more flu cases than covid. But, those little covid germs are about to get a taste of their own medicine on Tuesday with some good old-fashioned Colorado cold, wind, and snow. Meanwhile, suspecting there are going to be a lot of December, January, and February babies coming into the world here.

The lockdown kills too. A close relative is in assisted living, no visitors, no trips to the store, no church attendance, no group exercise, only one person per table at meals, limited interaction, wear your mask and eliminate individuality, etc. My relative now refuses heart medication. I believe the relative may have given up on life. I blame the politicians and administrators who focus mainly on what benefits themselves. Throw away the masks and become a free citizen again!

Joe Biden delivered a solid, if overhyped, speech last night accepting his party’s nomination for the highest office in the land. It effectively put a cap on the Democratic National Convention (DNC) and summed up the Democrats’ case thus: Joe Biden is a good and kind man; Donald Trump is not. Biden’s decency has been hugely exaggerated, as my colleague Ramesh Ponnuru has explained at Bloomberg Opinion, but he does seem a Boy Scout compared with his opponent. (Snip) Trump and his team have played right into Biden’s hands too.

A new poll released this weekend shows President Donald Trump, the incumbent GOP president, has taken a national and battleground states lead over his Democrat challenger presumptive nominee former Vice President Joe Biden. The survey, from the Democracy Institute commissioned by the Sunday Express newspaper, shows Trump leading Biden 48 percent to 46 percent. What’s more, Trump has opened up a bigger lead according to this poll in the crucial battleground states, meaning the president by this pollster’s estimates currently is projected to win 309 electoral votes—more than he did in 2016.

Former 2016 Republican presidential candidate Carly Fiorina has stated she plans to vote for former Vice President Joe Biden (D) in November. Fiorina, who says she is not pleased with President Donald Trump’s presidential conduct and was also Sen. Ted Cruz’s (R-TX) prospective running mate in 2016, made her remarks during an interview with the Atlantic’s “The Ticket” podcast. “I’ve been very clear that I can’t support Donald Trump,” Fiorina said in the interview. “And elections are binary choices.”

Father Daniel Moloney is the latest victim of cancel culture’s inquisition against all who question the Black Lives Matter movement. Moloney was forced out of his job as the Catholic chaplain of MIT last week after a university administrator deemed his writings on the death of George Floyd “deeply disturbing” and the Archdiocese of Boston asked him to resign. In a blog post and an email to students published at the beginning of June, Moloney spoke out about the errors of the new approach to fighting racism (snip) and called instead for a Christian path of charity and solidarity.

Until Thursday, Donald Trump’s reelection chances were not looking good. The booming economy — the lynchpin of his reelection campaign — lay in a COVID-induced coma, his near-daily jousting with a contemptuous press corps was yielding diminishing returns, and the Democratic leadership was salivating at running the cardboard-cutout version of Joe Biden against their hated enemy, trapped in the White House by the coronavirus panic. What a difference a couple of days makes. With the stunning announcement Thursday that the Justice Department was dropping all charges against Mike Flynn, Trump’s short-lived first national security adviser, the tables have suddenly turned.
About Those Press Conferences 46 replies
Posted by sagman 4/26/2020 9:00:19 PM Post Reply
President Trump seems increasingly ambivalent about the utility of the daily and sometime marathon press conferences. He should be — and for reasons besides just their length and frequency. First, Trump gets bogged down into long, back-and-forth jousts with the touché Washington press corps. His impromptu skills, honed both as president and in his years on television, usually ensure him tactical victories. He is not peremptory but retaliatory in his put-downs. Fine. Most Americans don’t especially like the Washington press corps. So they don’t mind them earning the repartee that their rude provocation deserves. But Trump’s victories are becoming Pyrrhic.

It’s time for the Trump haters to ditch their “unfit” trope. (snip) Somehow, they claim, a combination of incompetence, mental illness, and excessive fast-food consumption all render Trump incapable of executing his duties.While this has been an absurd and ugly lie since Trump’s inauguration, these stalwart naysayers now should see that Trump is entirely equipped to do his job. Trump’s critics surely will disagree with his policies and decisions. But the last few weeks should make even them admit that, whether they cheer or jeer his actions, he actually is performing as president, and effectively so.

As we reported two days ago, Joe Biden completely made no sense when he was trying to explain the Wuhan coronavirus relief bill. It was really bad and it explains why they’re afraid to have him deliver an address to Congress or do any kind of a real solo press conference, because at this point they have to be afraid this is all going to fall apart if he does anything live and this all becomes too obvious to the American people. But there’s only so long that they can hold this off. And it’s getting worse, as video today revealed. Biden was holding an event to announce the nomination

Democrat Senator Joe Manchin (WV) appears to have started to shift his views on the filibuster with remarks that he made on two news shows on Sunday morning.The shift from Manchin comes after he has repeatedly stated that he would not vote to end the filibuster, despite pressure from the far-Left. During the interviews on Sunday, Manchin repeatedly claimed that he was not open to ending the filibuster because he did not want to strip the minority party of their power in the Senate, but signaled that he was open to changing it.Fox News host Chris Wallace asked Manchin if he would consider “reforming the filibuster” if “Republicans

Nancy Pelosi’s top priority is to turn America into a one-party nation ruled by Democrats. Her bill HR 1 trashes the U.S. Constitution in an attempt to rig the system and make it virtually impossible to elect a Republican president or Congress again. It’s a power grab. The bill eviscerates state voting laws and forces all the states to conform to a set of rules that includes automatic voter registration. Anyone who goes to a DMV or applies for food stamps, Medicaid or other social services, or attends a public college will be automatically enrolled to vote. Noncitizens are obligated to identify themselves and opt out,

I’m probably second to none in my dislike for Meghan Markle. There’s something unattractive about a mature woman marrying into the British Royal family with one of the world’s most expensive weddings, hanging out with the Queen, living in insane luxury…and then whining non-stop about the horror of her life. There’s something even less appealing when that woman accuses the Royal family of race hatred. And the problem is that, when it comes to that left-wing diva, Meghan Markle, it’s hard to believe most of what she says. After weeks of hype, CBS finally televised Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah.

Appearing on Yahoo!

The Washington Times in 2019 first reported Democrats’ bid to strip the longtime FBI director’s name from the bureau’s headquarters. Mr. Cohen said the impetus to revive the bid is the new movie, “Judas and the Black Messiah.” The movie details

But somehow we missed it.” Tom Stoppard The millions of Americans who were paying attention throughout the 2020 election campaign all became painfully aware of the fact that Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities were slipping and slipping fast.

Instead, apparently so anxious to become the First Lady by any means necessary, Mrs. Biden continued to push her failing husband’s campaign forward as if he were mentally qualified.
