Re: Vaccination mandates
Fauci called the Sturgis rally a super spreader event while ignoring the Obama party.
Fauci is just another political hack who, with the help of the CDC, have completely botched the science and the messaging.
How long before RINO governor Scott calls for travel restrictions to VT ?

Re: Vaccination mandates
No he didn't.
Interview transcript: https://www.nbcnews.com/meet-the-press/ ... 1-n1276291
CHUCK TODD:
You've brought up regionally the South. But out in the Plains, in the Great Plains, we have Sturgis, South Dakota, there's a gathering right now of some 700,000 people. Last year, it was a smaller turnout and it was over about 150,000 people. And it led to a massive outbreak in the Dakotas, where they became number one and number two for essentially the rest of the calendar year of cases. What do you expect this rally to do to that part of the country?
DR. ANTHONY FAUCI:
Well, I'm very concerned, Chuck, that we're going to see another surge related to that rally. I mean, to me, it's, it’s understandable that people want to do the kinds of things they want to do. They want their freedom to do that. But there comes a time when you're dealing with a public health crisis that could involve you, your family, and everyone else, that something supersedes that need to do exactly what you want to do. I mean, you're going to ultimately be able to do that in the future, but let's get this pandemic under control before we start acting like nothing is going on. I mean, something bad is going on. I mean, we've got to realize that.
He's had a handful of missteps. The biggest being that masks don't help provide protection. Otherwise, I think he's done a good job.
Re: Vaccination mandates
Um, you basically supported what I said. Okay, he didn't use the phrase "super spreader." I guess you got me. Wow.
Of course Chuck Todd didn't bring up Obama's party because those people are "sophisticated" as opposed to the deplorable biker community.
Leftist are elitist and hypocrites. Kind of like Bernie owning 3 or 4 houses (quick... Fact check this for me)

Re: Vaccination mandates
Help me connect the dots here.
How is Obama a hypocrite by having a birthday party? It sounds like he's a hypocrite because Fauci expressed concerned about an event with 700k participants? I don't understand how the two are connected.
What does Bernie owning several houses have to do with Obama's birthday party and the Fauci interview?

Re: Vaccination mandates
Answer #1. Obama scaled his party way back in size to stay well below 700K participants, therefore, the two issues are related only in that one did the right thing given current Covid concerns.XtremeJibber2001 wrote: ↑Aug 10th, '21, 10:37Help me connect the dots here.

Answer #2. Bernie is a hypocrite and, having become a millionaire several years ago, has even modified his rants about millionaires and billionaires to include billionaires only.
Neither Obama nor Bernie have anything to do with Sturgis except that, although highly unlikely, either might show up there riding a Harley.

Re: Vaccination mandates
Wow, I stand corrected. You really are oblivious if you don't understand throbster's point about the democrats rules for thee, but not for me. Clearly he wasn't making the point only about Obama's party, but of the general democrat way of imposing rules for us commoners that don't apply to them. I guess I should say rules for Conservatives that don't apply to dems. Like last summer when conservative lockdown protesters were called super spreaders, but gathering in large numbers for BLM & Antifa riots were ok. You even had over 1K doctors who signed a letter saying that the BLM riots took priority over spreading covid. And people wonder why Americans are losing trust in our institutions.XtremeJibber2001 wrote: ↑Aug 10th, '21, 07:36What COVID rules are you talking about?

It's clear Obama isn't doing anything against any local ordinances or laws. He's not doing anything he's asked any one else not to do (not that it would matter since he's not POTUS and has no authority).
I really see no issue with the sturgis rally or Obama's birthday party. Neither are against any local ordinances or laws.
Instead of the GOP investing all their time in "making liberals cry again" with faux outrage at Obama's birthday party, they should be spending the time rebuilding the party with core Conservative values. Otherwise, GOP can look forward to their demise, barring a successful coup .. then we're all in for a World of hurt.
