Has anyone made them aware of the rampant racism in this nation we are so often told about? Would they still come?

I define intolerance as a response to dissention with labels and cancellation. I see this tactic as the primary, though not exclusive, weapon of leftism. And it works rather well. So someone objects to the vax they open themselves up to cancellation. Pretending this is not true make me suspicious of your intentions and awareness.

Setting aside your strawman, the answer is first to resume the Trump-era policies that at least impeded immigration to some extent, and in concert develop a better process and overall policy.

The seperation is important. These are the individuals pursuing ruinous outcomes. Plenty of people ate wanting folks to get vaxxed, it just so happens that intolerance is more prominent among liberals, and notably among the culture associated with white liberals.

I might suggest we not replicate the intolerance that typifies Liberalism, and instead avoid throwing labels and demeaning people making decisions for their own health. If someone wants a COVID vax, go get you some. I wont treat those folks as they did others....pretend I am operating on some higher or more moral plain to self-sooth my need for validation. I leave that to white liberals......

This is so true, luckily we actually have some more skilled folks who emigrated here and are less susceptible to their own stupidity. Still, it was at one time rather fun to catch him in one of his hypocrisy-antics and corner him.

Correct. LIberals have a rather optimistic world view. They are so insistent to avoid offending that that ignore reality. And later when that reality comes home to roost they are really taken aback. Meanwhile the rest of us, big meaner folks, just shake our head.....since we told them all along what people are really like....how that really behave.....

I contest your point. I think the "anti-vaxx" attack vector is considerably over-played by leftists. It does not reflect well on Liberals to attack people who have differing opinions in this manner. I think the guy clarified his position rather well, and he is clearly not anti-vaxx....but the usage of that tactic as you have done demonstrates intolerance to a significant level.

I might note that there were folks here, with a left lean, who called out that Dr Oz guy for not living in PA.....

I think it might be true that all these people who want to be "sanctuaries" have not had occasion to travel very often.

Perhaps. I did like her though, and it is rather rare that I like any politician or beaurocrat. My postings ususally indicate my distaste for them, but this one is different. As some here are noting, I did know her personally.

Her killer was a repeat violent offender. No sh!t eh?

I agree with you on this. But my observation is that in their pursuit of power, Democrats are not above harming we the people.....

Redefining terms can be great fun!

It is indeed.

There can be only 1 winner in this scenario and that is Democrats. So I assure you they have NO objection to the Repubs tickle-fighting in the back yard over this.

If I may, I think problem "A" with this process is the game of adding in "pet-stuff". Throwing in things that perhaps are non-relevant, or are too contested and thus gumming up the process. I get why they do it, this situation affords leverage to secure some extra stuff that no one would otherwise reasonanbly agree to. This problem then manifests where you have even a small number of people who are steadfastly opposed. Problem "B" is the CR. If they can stop being children, maybe they can put together an actual budget, without the extra stuff. Then fight it out for the non-essentials.

I think this is true, but I am not 100%. I think the Democrats would still have gamed this, just as the Republicans have in the past. But you could very well be correct.

I have had the occasion to meet this man. He should never have been in that position. His lack of acumen hurt us. Good riddance.

So it is then your position, that there is enough smoke on this element to justify an investigation....and the Democrats and DOJ actually did nothing to pursue it?

For the same reason they sought and bought Menendez, for access to his power and ability to influence political decisions. This is not that complex. At least the Bidens put in the effort to build a mob-eqse structure....Menendez is either stupid or wildly arrogant to not have also used that same criminal design to shield him.

I disagreed with her on many points, but I am saddend of her passing to be sure. I appreciated her alternative points of view as they often helped me better understand my own. In her time she was great, truly. I want to beleive that she kept on working hard because it was her calling and she loved the work, but I would rather for her to have seen her take the last years of her life to relax and reflect. I hope they are able to find someone with similar quality, even if I might disagree with their positions.

We should take down Trump, he appears to be the most "interesting" target for now, but get Biden with similar vigor.....then I want McConnell and Pelosi. I am also confident that Gaetz and Schumer are heavily on the take. I want them all.....lets get them all....

Not exactly. During the 90's and early 2000's I was immersed into the area.....and let me tell you, banks.....real estate agents....sellers....all of them are actively overstating the value of real estate, across the board and emphatically....its part and parcel of the market....
