I only wish on their way "out" they wouldn't be allowed to burden our health care system.

(7,839 posts)getting sick and not dying not much fun either.
And many vaccinated in ICUs
so p its the volume of the infections for new Covid 5x the transmission x 1/5 the severity = same as the old Covid for everyone.

"...millions more children heading back to school may soon be able to get a booster shot."
Soon. But hey, let's send them back anyway.
And children under 5 cannot even get the vaccine yet.

The lies, the stupidity and the ignorance-- all proudly worn by these fools-- have evaporated any sense of compassion that I once may have had.
Not one of these Trump-inspired idiots deserves my concern. In fact, I doubt they want it.
Die, motherfuckers. Sorry, but you've earned this fate.

To have the doctor ask if you've been vaccinated and you have to say no and you see a suppressed eye-roll.
To being hardly able to breath and you check on Facebook and all your "friends" tell you to eat de-wormer in massive amounts.
To realize as they shove tubes down your throat that you are a dupe, a casualty of someone else's bullshit cause.
To realize that your life is ending too early because you are a dumbass.

'RIP Cirsten Weldon CirstenW a True Patriot Warrior,' wrote one woman on Facebook. 'She died in a California Hospital today of bacterial pneumonia. She was deliberately not allowed the kinds of meds that would help her heal. DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO NOT GO IN A HOSPITAL NOW!!'
Please proceed.

All these pieces of human refuse walking around in stores and other closed spaces unmasked. Touching things, coughing, talking. Spreading Covid particulates. Wilful murderers. May she not rest in peace.

Their idiot followers are now claiming they were poisoned by anthrax at a meeting. Saying someone sprayed the food with an unknown substance.
So yeah, it wasnt COVID, it was part of an evil plot to knock them off.
You just cant help idiots like that. Theyll just have to die of COVID one by one.

"Cirsten Weldon had amassed tens of thousands of followers across right-wing social media networks by promoting the pro-Trump QAnon conspiracy under the screenname 'CirstenW.' She was prominent enough to become a sort of QAnon interpreter for comedian conspiracy theorist Roseanne Barr and started recording videos about QAnon with her."
"Comediant conspiracy theorist," LOL. Among other things!

It kills over 90% if the route is inhalation.
The fact that only a few died is proof that they lied. Nobody is that lucky.

(17,011 posts)is as much of a traitor as traitor is. Their refusal to get vaccinated is destroying our medical resources, another nail getting tapped into the coffin of American Excellence. It is another weapon in their stupidly reckless civil war. But it is like they are aiming a Gatling gun at their own forces. Traitor's soldiers are dropping in their tracks, and I'm sorry to say, we will be a better country without their vocal insanity reenforcing the cultist mindset.

(8,844 posts)Republicans Lie, People Die............
Trump wouldn't have lasted ten minutes in office without the Entire Republican Party supporting him all those years, and continuing to do so....................Putin and the Republican Party was totally complicit in getting him elected and carrying out their dirty work.
Trump had his job and did it spectacularly........Divert the nation's people's attention on a daily basis, while the Republican Party carried on their neparious/covert work from the shadows and behind the smoke and mirrors. Some day, it will all come out....The massive amount of shit the Republican Party pulled off in the Trump four years while everyone's attention was diverted away by Trump's daily antics, and helped immensely by the 80+% of U.S. Media that is owned by wealthy republicans.......With FoxNews, RW radio, and Rush Limpballs leading the pack...........................
My fantasy is visiting Rush's grave, sitting down and drinking six beers and six cups of coffee and then..........................
I have a bucket list of Republican Politician's graves I want to visit in similar fashion before I croak............

(5,478 posts)I'd go for a full dose of colonoscopy prep, myself.
Make sure that Rush gets everything he deserves.
As Dave Barry put it in his famous Miami Herald article:
------------
The instructions for MoviPrep, clearly written by somebody with a great sense of humor, state that after you drink it, "a loose watery bowel movement may result." This is kind of like saying that after you jump off your roof, you may experience contact with the ground.
MoviPrep is a nuclear laxative. I dont want to be too graphic, here, but: Have you ever seen a space shuttle launch? This is pretty much the MoviPrep experience, with you as the shuttle. There are times when you wish the commode had a seat belt. You spend several hours pretty much confined to the bathroom, spurting violently. You eliminate everything. And then, when you figure you must be totally empty, you have to drink another liter of MoviPrep, at which point, as far as I can tell, your bowels travel into the future and start eliminating food that you have not even eaten yet.

(1,304 posts)one and I couldn't remember the lax I took, just that it had a weird name. This was four years ago, but yeah, it was MoviPrep. I hadn't seen Barry's article but he nailed it... and the part about the bowels traveling to the future is funny but spot on!
