I don`t have enough time to go into Whitmer right now.
That shouldn't "be" it "is" impeachable.NorvilleBarnes said:Just learned that Whitmer has a pillow with Dr. Fauci on it. A pillow. With Fauci's face.
Reporter Charlie LeDuff is all over Whitmers mishandling the nursing home COVID cases.
I figured the UP wouldn’t be very compliant. Get away from Lake Mich here (I’m in Berrien), and it’s like that also. I was just talking to one of my customers today about HS sports. He said the wrestling is just a mess now from wrestlers having to sit out, thanks to contact tracing.
It shouldn't even be going on at all. But she gave an inch there. Then what happened? They started crying about having to wear masks during the games. Coaches won't wear them either. Teachers neither. She will never please the right short of seppuku So why even consider them at all? It's ####### sick.
I'd also say probably 75% of travel athletes (people with money) are heading to Florida this week too. My kids barely have classes. It's movie week so we can accommodate those athletes who left early. It's just infuriating.
There are plenty on the left who want the HS sports also. I thought the only people who could attend was 2-4 from each player’s family. I don’t get Mich TV, so I don’t really know all of her rules. Now Indiana is lifting the mask mandate in 10 days, no restrictions in LaPorte County, next county to me.
I see that problem here also, kids are going to Alabama for travel ball. My brother is a coach and his family is going to Arizona, he’s a big lib though.
Oh I know. People are conveniently hypocritical. Everybody is. My dad (died in the wool Democrat) is this way. Anything I do is unsafe, but anything his wife does is ok. I'm the same way. I recognize that in myself and acknowledge it.
Yep. Got scouts from Grand Valley state coming up to the game. Lol. The best athlete to ever come out of my town is Kevin Tapani 40 years ago. Second best made it as far as farm league hockey. But the amount of pressure these sports families put on the kids is almost comical if it wasn't so sad.
I voted for Whitmer, but she lost me when she threw that tantrum and vetoed most of the budget because she did not get everything she wanted after taking office. So for months funding was idled but Whitmer did not care as it had zero impact on her of her family. Basically why I pretty much despise all politics. And I don`t like Shirkey and his crew either,
I agree. Not a huge fan of Whitmer. However the Republicans attempted to cut her power before she even took office. The right fringe tried to kill her. She’s in a tough spot. Definitely an air of arrogance to her.
Is it an accident? Was it bad intel gathering or listening to the wrong people? I don’t know exactly what went wrong. I think perhaps maybe inadvertent is a better word. Still awful.
Intentions matter in terms of a lawsuit, I'd think. But end of the day, not really. The people who died matter. Sadly you are most likely correct about it being forgotten. Except those who lost loved ones won't forget. Kind of like when you blow up a small village in some faraway desert. The news cycle moves on but the pain of the survivors just festers.
I thought the problem with Inslee was that he diverted millions in federal funds that could have gone to nursing homes elsewhere.
Along those lines, it appears like there is a witch hunt going on.
Jesus. I hadn’t heard those comments. What planet are these people on anymore? It’s like they think they are filming a movie or something and not dealing with human beings.
As Whitmer was flying to Florida Whitmer`s top aide Liz Hertel posted pictures on Facebook from the beach Gulf Shores AL two days after being on TV warning the regular Michiganders not to travel on spring break anywhere. How stupid can these people get?
The Whitmer travel part I get this time. I’m going thru the same thing. Her aide, ah no. When questioned about whether the aide’s daughter was vaccinated, I heard silence. Whitmer did scold us about holiday travel, then took selfies with her daughter at the White House on Inauguration Day. They really are out of touch. Now she’s in a jam because the numbers are so bad now. If she shuts down the state, no way she gets re-elected.
Would be very suprised if Whitmer shuts down the state again as she is feeling the heat and in politcal survival mode right now.
She's also mentioned the courts. It seems they've neutered her power grab at least a little bit.
That’s true also. Besides, how embarrassing would it be if we were the only state who went backwards?
You already did. Last week she issued a mandate requiring 2 year olds to wear masks.
Have no idea. Some school of thought is that Michigan was locked down too long. Ohio and Indiana have been almost fully open months before Michigan and their numbers are much lower.
Nope. As I have said in this thread frequently. I see significant compliance with mask wearing. I almost NEVER see someone not wearing a mask.
100% false. She used the health department to shut things down after the courts ruled on her over using her authority. So that's not it at all.
I guess I mean in terms of capacity and closures.
