And let's not forget that he never restocked the national stockpile of PPE after H1N1 in 2009.

It's the result of having a government so massive and invasive it touches every aspect of everyone's lives at all times.


Exactly. Same thing was obvious when the left lost their collective shite in 2016. If the election of 1 president is able to make one entire side of the political spectrum lose their minds and truly believe the destruction of the country is eminent, maybe it’s possible that the federal government and the executive branch in particular are way too fricking powerful. Wouldn’t it be nice if that guy had so little effect on your life that you wouldn’t have to give a frick who got elected?

I'm sure Spleen will be along to tell us how those notoriously right wing websites WaPo and Factcheck.org are just shilling for drumpf.

I mean think how bad your position has to be when those two orgs call your arse out.

You're right. It was an imperative statement. Post your CV first.

That was the original intent, for the very reasons we're living through right now.

It's funny how the usual characters who complain about this administrations handling of Covid 19 defended Obamas lack of action in 2009 because of a worldwide recession.

I guess their reactions are dependent on who is in office.

Infection fatality rate is 0.26% total

0.87% over 65
0.134% 50-65
0.033% under 50


So dare I say it.....similar to the flu?



Not really. My understanding is the flu is pretty hard on infants and kids. This one not so much. Mortality rate might be similar but this virus is really only a threat to older folks specifically really old folks and older folks with other serious health issues.

30-40% of the deaths are in nursing homes which are basically people with only a few years max left anyway. A disease that targets infants seems to be a much bigger threat than one that targets the extremely elderly.

My post said nothing about the CDC.

I was talking more about the re-organization within the NSC under Bolton. The gameplan Obama left behind. The one the press secretary actually held up in her press conference last week.

The OT forgets there was a 2 month thread about people dying on the streets in Wuhan. There was legit fear in January, February and March about what we were facing. Then we saw Italy get devastated and once we saw New York was in chaos, fear of what this could become was high. We didn’t know what we were dealing with.


Fear clouds judgement. Fear forces you to make bad decisions. We shouldn’t allow fear to dictate policy
