There is also a video at the WTNH.com link above, although it doesn't show much of the *many* vehicles and people who came out to protest last Monday in the cold rain. We were particularly impressed with the number of young people who participated in the rolling rally.

The original title of the article was "Protesters ask Gov. Lamont to reopen CT as coronavirus hospitalizations continue to trend downward". We weren't "asking" Gov. Lamont for anything... we were DEMANDING that Lamont at least *start* to reopen Connecticut, like other states in the U.S.

As of today, Gov. Ned Lamont and his clueless task force still have NO plan, and apparently NO ideas for when the hell the state will return to some kind of 'normal'.

Trump has pulled the national Slow the Spread guidelines.

These Govs are now on their own.
And it appears most of them are politically paralyzed.

Probably a good thing for long-term GOP electoral prospects, but not good for the country in the short term.

People are right.

If the big box stores can be open, the smaller ones can too.

There’s no need for the shut down to continue and this stringing people along with *two more weeks* and then another *two more weeks*, ad nauseum, is not going to fly much longer.

Rat Party officeholders in DC *and* state capitals see this as a golden opportunity...and their last opportunity...to drive the President from office.

There's not a snowball's chance in hell that a single Rat Governor (or a single RINO one...like in Massachusetts) will do anything but "follow the science" and keep the lockdowns going as long as possible.

The Rats are already specifically on record as being willing to tank the economy if that's what it takes...and they,and their pals in "science",have basically succeeded.

Belated thank you for your pings on the WH Coronavirus Task Force live threads.

I wasn't on Monday's thread because I was at this 'rolling rally' in Hartford, CT on Monday evening. With hubby and several friends. Surprisingly good turnout in the cold rain on Monday! People in CT are angry and beyond restless. Enough already with the damn shutdown!

LaMoron, if you keep Connecticut shut down, how can they support your spending without paying tolls and your outrageous sales taxes and income taxes? 😋

Ned Lamont is the nephew of Corliss Lamont; they’re COMMUNISTS. This is the way he likes things.

It’s getting plainer by the day: if you have a democrat or rino governor, you’re $©red. It’s that simple. They’re playing for time, the elections.
