Partisan Media Shills update.
DNC Media Liar Alert
“”President Donald Trump is pushing hard for businesses to reopen.”
False. I really wish he was. He could start by having the justice department come down on governors trampling on the People’s rights.
USA! USA! USA! (We will always win in the end. Not winning is not in our blood.)
There’s a reason Time magazine was sold for a grand total of ONE DOLLAR. Imagine the whole organization’s worth = $1, divided by how many employees, bosses/semi-bosses, etc.
The opinion expressed by the article and its author is less than thousandth worth than a dollar.
There were sensible ways to handle this virus but they were not found on FreeRepublic. With Surrender Fearpers running straight into the Progressive arms of government, criticisms of this article seem trite.
The Chicken Freepers haven’t posted their Hockey Stick graphs I’m so e time. But they are now claiming that all this tyrannical assault on liberty and our prosperity was just bound to happen anyway. Yep, they don’t beleive their hysteria had anything to do with our collapse.
I said from the beginning that the logic that led us into lockdown has no escape clause. If saving lives is worth sacrificing liberty then there is no winning the argument. There will always be more lives to be saved.
330,000,000 - population
2,900,000 - annual deaths
84,000 - WuFlu
Why is it ok to die from anything but Corona?
Answer= Orange Man bad.
Some idiot Freepers have a lot of explaining to do. While they collect their governemt checks, of course.
“Over the past 14 weeks, 84,000 Americans have died of COVID-19.”
But there has been a steep miraculous drop in accidental death, heart attacks, strokes, old age, flu, etc. New York and New Jersey have a huge financial incentive to claim every dead body from anything as Covid. And Dr. Birx said the stats from CDC are AT LEAST 25% off and she doesn’t trust anything coming out of there.
But yeah, 84,000.
Winston Churchill said that the USA always does the right thing, but only after trying everything else.
I’d like to believe that, but I’m not so sure. That was then, and this is now.
‘Over the past 14 weeks, 84,000 Americans have died of COVID-19.’
and that is an absolute lie; or to be more nuanced, a gross overstatement...
“Haley Sweetland Edwards”
I like the name Haley for a woman; I just finished writing a crappy novel whose female protagonist was named Hailey, with an ‘i’...
I hope “Time” goes up in flames, with all of it’s ahole “journalists” trapped inside.
‘Some idiot Freepers have a lot of explaining to do.’
as you say, there are several; I can buy that for the most part they are sincere in their belief that the virus constitutes an existential crisis, however, there are one or two whose motives I doubt...if they were sincere, then upon hearing that a certain country was attempting to weather the crisis without draconian lockdowns, they should have been supportive of that, and hoping for that country’s success; but when some bad news came from that effort, one of these posters rushed to this website to proclaim the disappointment, and to all intents and purposes seemingly reveling in it...this disturbed me...
I had an office coffee cup (now sadly broken) that was covered with all sorts of clever, business-related quips. The relevant one that comes to mind is:
“If you can’t be part of the solution, there is good money to be made by prolonging the problem.”
The best response to the Time article is to ignore it (and the magazine) out of existence.
Sad to write this as I used to be a subscriber. That ended when the magazine was repurposed by its management into a tool for the propaganda arm of the DNC.
Odd that Time didn’t offer this headline about CLOSING American 6 weeks ago.
Yep...I’ve liked the name Hailey since Hailey Mills.
Does ANY sentient American read this rag anymore?
I stopped reading at “one-quarter of the total global casualties from the coronavirus pandemic.” That’s only true if you believe China’s numbers. Only morons believe China’s numbers. Therefore Haley Sweetland Edwards is a moron, and it isn’t worth wasting the time to read the rest of her screed.
What a pantload. TIME is EMIT backwards.. Can ya smell it???
