troubledThe semi-open posts  I've hosted here on the Covid-19 narrative, the inadequately tested experimental drugs for it, and the whole cascading mess surrounding them have continued to field a huge number of comments, so I'm opening another space for discussion. The rules are the same as before: 

1. If you plan on parroting the party line of the medical industry and its paid shills, please go away. This is a place for people to talk openly, honestly, and freely about their concerns that the party line in question is dangerously flawed and that actions being pushed by the medical industry et al. are causing injury and death. It is not a place for you to dismiss those concerns. Anyone who wants to hear the official story and the arguments in favor of it can find those on hundreds of thousands of websites.

2. If you plan on insisting that the current situation is the result of a deliberate plot by some villainous group of people or other, please go away. There are tens of thousands of websites currently rehashing various conspiracy theories about the Covid-19 outbreak and the vaccines. This is not one of them. What we're exploring is the likelihood that what's going on is the product of the same arrogance, incompetence, and corruption that the medical industry and its tame politicians have displayed so abundantly in recent decades. That possibility deserves a space of its own for discussion, and that's what we're doing here. 

3. If you don't believe in treating people with common courtesy, please go away. I have, and enforce, a strict courtesy policy on my blogs and online forums, and this is no exception. The sort of schoolyard bullying that takes place on so many other internet forums will get you deleted and banned here. No, I don't care if you disagree with that: my journal, my rules. 

With that said, the floor is open for discussion.

Why do you feel the need to emphasize Republican so much?

Because whenever a Democratic governor says there is a crisis in their state, a bunch of people claim that they are making it up because they want to impose a totalitarian regime to destroy their own states because they hate America and freedom. This is a Republican administration saying hey, we're hip deep in doo-doo here, folks. Can Idaho's Republican governor be believed when he says they're having problems?

Got a source for this claim Idaho's governor is claiming they have major issues?

Here's Idaho's Dept. of Health and Welfare with a quotation from the governor:

Keep in mind a lot of people reflexively distrust everyone regardless of party affiliation these days....

Honestly, and speaking as an Idahoan, you want people to believe Governor Chicken Little? If he says the sun is shining, go outside and check!

The State House put themselves in recess instead of ending their session just so they have the legal ability to rein him in, if needed. He's that bad. He did his best to pretend Idaho is a dense blue state for the whole pandemic, which is blatantly absurd, and try to order policies accordingly. This generally gets him way out of what he can actually do and begging localities to comply with turning his wishes into ordinances.

The only people who like Gov. Chicken Little are his owners, I mean, doners. His only chance of winning his primary is if the field is overly split. Which it looks like they're going for . . . and he's causing the Republican party here to shed voters like crazy.

Huh… You know I do seem to recall quite a bit of talk about how regarding Republicans “a bunch of people claim that they are making it up because they want to impose a totalitarian regime to destroy their own states because they hate America and freedom.”

Increasingly loud and shrill and especially common when Trump’s name came up. Hmmm…something about reaping what you sow?
