Fox News, Newsmax, OAN, and other TV purveyors of fake news
Re: Fox News, Newsmax, OANN, and other TV purveyors of fake news
I always think people miss the point with that "drown in a bathtub" quote. They think it means "Small Goverment." What I have always thought it actually means is a Monarchy or Dictatorship.

Wasn't Hannity one of the Fox "News" opinion hosts who, early in the pandemic, specifically called it a hoax?
So, now he's telling people to take it seriously?
Seriously?

I think you are going to see a lot more of this back-peddling. Fortunately, it's the GOP voters who are dying which watched them/trusted them and told them not to get the vaccines -- so there is that.

I would really like to see the red-state statistics of registered Republican deaths versus registered Democratic deaths from COVID. I'm sure it would be interesting...Frater I*I wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 10:36 pm Yeah, now it's a serious public health issue...since now the GQP voters are the one's dying from it mainly.

Yeah, but that's the Preamble; it doesn't count. Or so I hear from a certain section of the country. ![Shh :shh:](./images/smilies/shhh.gif)

Everyone's favorite clause...
Article I, Section 8, Clause 1:
The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States; . . .

Ya but Vannity, on his Radio show, was apparently still playing down the Vaccine and pushing Hydroycloroquine.

Less people tune in for the radio...plus that's the serious crazies who know he just had to say that on TV to keep those liberal lawsuits from coming in....

Yes, it appears Biden is not up to the role. He has not spent a bunch of time at a campaign rally going on about how he can drink water as all the stable genius kids do.

Star Trek had different warp tables over its various iterations, but twice the speed of light would be around warp 1.25.

I always considered Warp 1 = C; Warp 2 = 2C, etc. But I also considered that it might have made sense if Warp 1 = C and Warp 2 = C2, etc.
I never looked up to see if Roddenberry had a 'style manual' to ensure consistency.
