Flubros and Flubras! Day 177 (a place for Flubros and Flubras)

It’s just the flu, bro.

Abbott might relax the Texas lockdown today - see link above.

Is it too much to ask for to want your government to not try to protect everyone from anything bad that can happen? Specifically, we have every leftist politician trying to protect everyone from the Coronavirus, not realizing the unintended negative consequences. The only real protection a national government needs to provide is a military. This government protection philosophy seems to have developed over the past 100 years and it is not a good trend. When the US decides to “protect” people to an extreme degree we cease to be a capitalist country and we begin to be a socialist country. This is, of course, something that conservatives must work to prevent.

You’re a running joke.

Dead from what??? Most of the dead would have died from their various comorbidities anyway. Possibly, the wuhan virus contributed to their death from their major comorbidities.

Garbage numbers and you know it.

Also, some of us aren’t collecting military pensions, so we need to still work and live.

This is how it was designed, patented, and USED by those in power
who should be tarred, feathered, and indicted.
view this BEFORE it is removed.

He gets his attention fix every morning from the responses to his B.S.

But boy does he ever trigger the urge to bitch-slap him, doesn’t he? :-)

I’m still dubious as to whether he actually is who he says he is. Any slightly pudgy dude can get a flight suit, pose with a jet, and create an elaborate “About” page with all sorts of impressive-looking things on it. :-)

YES! I had the same thought when I read the article on the local NBC website this morning. I pray he relaxes the lockdown AND removes the damn mask requirement.

Specifically, we have every leftist politician trying to protect everyone from the Coronavirus, hoping for not realizing the unintended negative consequences that cause enough pain to make people decide to vote against Trump.

It would be nice if he could at least reopen the VFW’s, ours was closed on its 75th anniversary.

Hey, yer all combat vets but you should be afraid to have a beer at your club. *spit*

Yep, I once told him that just because he wore a bandaid while on the airplane ride in front of K-Mart that doesn’t qualify him as a flight surgeon.
