No excuses, just facts. The timeline was that when C19 hit our shores, everyone did what the fedgov and CDC directed. It was the natural process of these things when the bell is first rung. However, Desantis, after getting some other advisement and seeing what the lockdown/mask madness was doing elsewhere, reversed those polices in short order, as did a couple other governors. That's it. I live here. I saw it.
But for that you would condemn the man. You like quoting the Bible... here's one for you: Matthew 7:1-3 -- Judge not, that ye be not judged.
You're over-the-top hystrionics are what I would expect to see on DU. Get ahold of yourself. We share the same goals -- to live as free people. Keep your eye on the bigger picture.
I simply pointed out the duplicitous hypocrisy in the DeSantis political ad.
If Andrew Cuomo had come out and criticized the Federal government for the COVID deaths of all the elderly people in New York who had been sent back to nursing homes under Cuomo's own orders, wouldn't we stand up and point out that Cuomo is a lying @sshole?
We share the same goals -- to live as free people.
That's not how I remember it here on FR in the spring of 2020. In fact, I took plenty of scolding from FR Karens back then over my refusal to shut down my business and hide under my bed in those early weeks of the COVID fiasco. Republican governors issuing lockdown orders sure didn't make things any easier for us who were standing up even under pressure from other "conservatives" at the time.
