I’m predicting a big Memorial Day.

And, after that,  I predict citizens in your part of New Italy will end up being shut in for so long we will have to start calling all of you Brig.

The Wuhan Panic is over where I live. Streets are packed with traffic, geezers out in golf carts, screeching children running the sidewalks. Unfortunately the restaurants can only fill to half capacity. If they could fill, they’d make back their lost money. I’m predicting a big Memorial Day.

Not here in Cali.  Like most states with Party First! Democrat governors, the goal here is to destroy as much of the economy - businesses and jobs - as possible ahead of the election.  The goal posts continue to move, from 2 weeks of ''social distancing'', to ''flattening the curve'', to testing, to an impossible set of hoops to jump through - including development of a vaccine(!).  All in the name of ''science'' of course, although any science behind their often contradictory moves is never divulged. 

I predict by June 1 the uproar will be so loud these hacks will back down everywhere but the most easily frightened and easily led of the blue districts.

People are out and about. I think you are correct, but people are no longer being locked down. They are ignoring the order. I don't think it will be long before the desire to appear powerful and in charge will have to beat out the desire to hurt Trump. The longer this goes and people ignore them more and more, the less the people in charge appear to have power.

I love Laura's take on things:



Honest question, no gotcha here. I don't watch Fox so I don't know. But has Laura or any of their host has been involved in a town hall with general audience? Have they even had a panel of let's say 5 people in studio.

Honestly, not one of you guys find it strange that loudest voices to get out there and get the economy moving is Trump who got a sack full of tests which he administrates to anybody who gets in the room with him, Talk radio hosts who work either from home or at most in an isolated sound booth at a radio station, and Fox news who seem to have a skeleton crew  (if anyone) working behind the talking heads in the news room and every time I tune in, the hosts are separated and talking to guests by video. I mean my gosh Fox and Friends, THEY ARE FRIENDS, and they aren't even sitting next to each other. These guys are telling you to go out and mingle with strangers, but these buddies can't sit on the couch for a couple of hours? Does none of that make you go hummmm?

Well, I found this on YouTube and, I don't have cable TV or subscribe to Fox News, so I'm not watching Fox News on a daily basis.

But, I don't like the sound and tone of Sean Hannity or Tucker Carlson's delivery, so I don't listen to them. Can't speak for the other Fox New shows. You'll have to get that from someone else..

This is a 2 part answer.  1) the president, any current president, is the single most necessary person in the country.  No it's not strange everyone around him is constantly tested, and 2) the President is the one making decisions on this very tough issue, at least at the national level.  He has more to consider than just the medical aspects of this.  He thinks the country should be open, that the economy needs to get on track.  I agree, this is not so deadly and dangerous that it's worth further across the board lockdown and damage to the economy, and damage to other aspects of society.  There is a cost/benefit analysis that at some point favors ending this.


... Fox and Friends, THEY ARE FRIENDS, and they aren't even sitting next to each other. These guys are telling you to go out and mingle with strangers, but these buddies can't sit on the couch for a couple of hours? Does none of that make you go hummmm?...

Is that what they're telling people?

Here's what Libs don't get.  We didn't vote for Reagan because he convinced us of anything.  We don't tune in to, say, Rush or Fox hosts (among others) because we need them to tell us what to think.  We supported Reagan (and others) and consume certain media because they agree with us, because they share our worldview.

The weather here is warm, but not yet blazing. There are new bikinis to be worn and new bikinis to be gawked at. Folks ain’t staying inside, death or no death.
Merry Christmas - Nice things, and posts, are nicer than nasty things.

Aye. Italy was looking forward to 'a big Easter'.

There is a very simple solution to this. Ideally speaking, those violating the orders should be made to understand they will be forfeiting their right to usual COVID treatment if infected.
