Political discussions about everything

Open borders in a pandemic ought to be understandable even to senile Joe.

Already this year, something like 1.3 to 1.5 million new illegal aliens entered America with the knowledge of Mayorkas, who bragged about being the first Hispanic head of DHS.

No head of DHS did a thing to secure the southern border, but Mayorkas stands out for his loyalty to illegal aliens rather than American citizens.

Thanks to johnforbes for admitting that he and his fellow Repubs don't care about covid. To this day they still want COVID shots to be optional for everyone.

But that won't stop dishonestjohn from repeating the partisan lie that 1.5 million illegal immigrants just 'waltzed' into the country this year.

Never happened. johnny made it up.

Thanks to Clown for his effort at wimp-splaining, but alas 1.5 million NEW illegal aliens did enter the country this year.

Clown is correct not all of them waltzed in because it was not Vienna at Christmas or NY.

However, a huge percentage of the 1.5 million new illegals did enter to the sound of Mexican music, but sadly not the talent of Freddy Fender.

It is true that Clownslacker is kooky, but alas not Ed "Kookie" Byrnes of "77 Sunset Strip."

As Clown wimp-spalained, 1.5 million NEW illegal aliens did enter the country this year.

On a positive note, Clowntoker is a Jack Kerouac sort of hiipie on this forum, albeitt without the minimal talent of Jack.

In fact, Clown is a foot shorter than Jack Palance, who was 6'4" tall.

Clown doesn't know Jack...

I believe in vaccines myself just as a matter of playing the odds, but of course every vaccine has side-effects.

Vaccine mandates are wrong, as Biden and Fauci said all the way through December 2020.

Your goal as a politician is to PERSUADE people to get the covid shots, not try to FORCE them.

That OSHA rule has not even been issued yet because that would permit some judge to halt it, so senile Joe's people have even been dishonest on that.

How are vaccine mandates "wrong?"

There have been vaccine mandates for decades. I received the MMR vaccines in order to go to school. My two daughters received the MMR vaccines as well. When I went into the army I had to get a number of vaccinations during initial processing.

And now all of a sudden conservatives are now whining that there shouldn't be any vaccine mandates? It's as if republicans are the party of stupid squared.

You forget that johnforbes holds the U.S. Supreme Court in contempt. That's why he is against vaccine mandates.

He couldn't care less that the Supreme court has addressed this issue twice already and both times came down on the side of vaccinations because it found that a person's right stop at the point where they are endangering the life and health of others.

Instead, johnforbes returns with his insane insistence that public health policy (and indeed his own life) should be left in the hands of the most ignorant and stupid in our society. It's truly baffling that he has so little regard for his own life and the lives of his family and friends.

Congress could pass a law and, if Joe signed it, you could have a proper vaccine mandate.

But an OSHA rule, based on no underlying statute, would not be defensible.

Joe and Fauci surely know that, and that is why they said there wouldn't be any mandates throughout 2020. Joe last said that in Dec 2020.

You ALWAYS want to encourage, educate, incentivize, but NOT get into mandates.

There have been vaccine mandates to attend schools and for entry into the military for decades without any laws permitting them to do so......now all of a sudden Johnnie is claiming that there should be an act of congress to authorize them to do so?

And in reality, the government is not requiring for people to get vaccinated. if you don't want to get vaccinated, then you don't have to....

"You ALWAYS want to encourage, educate, incentivize, but NOT get into mandates."-john"lyingpussyboy"forbes

I am surprised that johnforbes believes he could have told his military doctors to fuck off when they said he would be forced by mandate to get multiple vaccinations once inducted into the Army.

I am even more surprised that he believes an army should "NOT" be forced to be protected from diseases that could jeapardize the mission of the Army.

But I am not at all surprised that johnforbes believes millions of children and immunocomprimised adults should be forced to be exposed to life-threatening and crippling diseases in order to appease a bunch of ignorant and brain dead partisan yokels with no legal understanding of their actual Constitutional rights. He is indeed that vile a human being.

“There are manifold restraints to which every person is necessarily subject for the common good. On any other basis, organized society could not exist with safety to its members. Society based on the rule that each one is a law unto himself would soon be confronted with disorder and anarchy.....Real liberty for all could not exist under the operation of a principle which recognizes the right of each individual person to use his own, whether in respect of his person or his property, regardless of the injury that may be done to others.”-Supreme Court Justice John Marshall Harlan

Justice Marshall did not base his majority opinion supporting mandatory compliance with vaccination mandates on any OSHA rule, did he, johnny?

Stop with your irrelevant partisan distractions and address your puzzling contempt for Supreme Court precedent instead.

Our goal here is serious discussion, not lobbing personal remarks back and forth like tennis balls.

Ergo, I did not single out the clueless, crass commentary of classless Clown.

Instead, I trained the searchlight of this discussion -- much like Diogenes -- on the general question of why not one Democrat voted to make illegal aliens get covid shots.

Does sneaking across the border generate antibodies to repel covid-19?
#132239
No, I don't know there was a vote on this. You didn't provide any evidence of it.

I don't watch FOXnews or One America News the way you do to get your propaganda.

Yet you keep pretending you have something to discuss, while not providing anything to discuss. Typical.

You're a dishonest partisan idiot, and this thread is just further proof of your stupidity.
