Why are you writing me a book? Are you that oblivious to the fact that in recent elections, there was a red wave? Are you that oblivious to the fact that even Democrats realize that the midterms are not going to be kind to them so many are jumping off the ship instead of running for re-election, only to become part of the minority party?The cream of the crap
Rick Scott touts Everglades investments from bill he opposed -- Rick Scott said he was "proud" to help secure new Everglades investments. He neglected to mention that he opposed the bill that provided the funds.
House Republicans have been tripping over one another in recent weeks, trying to claim credit for infrastructure investments from a law they tried to kill. In fact, the list keeps growing: NBC News flagged a related example this morning, noting Republican Rep. Tony Gonzales of Texas celebrating an ecosystem restoration plan in his district that's backed by funds from a bill he opposed.
But it now appears the phenomenon is not limited to the House. HuffPost reported late yesterday:
The report added that the Florida Republican's office released photographs of Scott "shaking hands and posing with local officials," as politicians are wont to do.
What Scott didn't mention is that the unprecedented resources for Everglades restoration came by way of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act signed into law by President Joe Biden.
To be sure, the infrastructure package enjoyed at least some bipartisan backing, passing the Senate by an unexpectedly wide margin, 69 to 30.
The trouble, of course, is that Florida's Scott wasn't one of the 69.
As we've discussed more than once, I'm well aware of the standard GOP response to stories like these. It's common for lawmakers, especially when dealing with a massive, multifaceted piece of legislation, to like some elements of a bill while opposing the larger whole (or conversely, members might oppose some provisions while endorsing the larger whole). That's just part of the process.
But for the members being accused of hypocrisy, the larger context matters. Many Republicans condemned the infrastructure bill in no uncertain terms and soon after launched an offensive against the modest number of GOP lawmakers who dared to make it bipartisan by voting for it.
Scott, in particular, complained that Republicans donors were "furious" with the GOP senators who had the audacity to support the popular and effective legislation last summer.
But now that the investments are starting to reach the public at the local level, many of these same Republicans are nevertheless eager to present themselves as champions of the funding that probably wouldn't exist if they'd been successful in derailing the legislation.
Either the new law is reckless socialism, or it's poised to make worthwhile investments that will help a lot of people. Either Republicans are going to make the case against the package, or they're going to celebrate the parts of it that benefit their constituents.
When the GOP tries to do both at the same time — just as the party did with the Recovery Act and the American Rescue Plan — Republicans shouldn't be surprised when they get called out for their brazenness.
For the White House's part, a reporter asked Jen Psaki yesterday for her reaction to Republicans touting infrastructure projects that benefit their constituents, despite having opposed the bill.
"We welcome their support for the president's agenda and an agenda that was supported by some Republicans — not the majority," she responded. "And, hopefully, they'll take the right vote to support their communities and job creation in the future. Maybe it will make them think twice."
Ummmmmmmmmmmm, the virus is out of control everywhere in the world, even in the most highly vaccinated countries and states. It has nothing to do with vaccination because the vaccines don't stop the spread of Omicron. By the way, I was one of the first to get vaccinated and am boosted. But, I'm not as stupid as the left in thinking that is going to stop me from getting or spreading Covid. When you let in the vaccinated everywhere, they get and spread Covid. The left are creating numerous superspreader events by having vaccine passports. And, they are firing unvaccinated from their jobs while allowing Covid positive workers to work. And yet you would rather blame the spread on the unvaccinated.So much that isn't true in your post.
The virus is out of control because you continue to refuse to be vaccinated.
Take a look at the Graph. The USA and Russia are alone among first world countries in refusing to be vaccinated. The two first world countries where the virus is out of control - The USA and Russia. Canada is reopening today.
Omnicron is dropping like a stone here. Canada had 55,000 new cases on January 10th, and 13,900 yesterday. We had 408,000 active infections on January 8th, and 260,000 people sick yesterday, of which, only 1250 seriously ill.
Yes we had 180 deaths yesterday. But its still lower than we had in either April of 2020, and December of 2020, when we had fewer than 20,000 infections per day. Virtually all of the deaths and serious illness have been among the unvaccinated. The numbers of people getting covid through the omicron surge have been the highest numbers of sick people we've ever seen. But the peak numbers of deaths and hospitalizations in this surge are a fraction of what we saw in previous surges.
As we move past omnicron, the rest of the first world, with our high vaccination rates, is moving into the endemic phase of the pandemic. Learning to live with covid. Schools reopened this week. Restaurants, bars and gyms are re-opening today.
Vaccines will soon be required in all first world countries, except the two nations who are determined to shoot themselves in the foot - the USA and Russia. Stupid is as stupid does.

I know many people are looking forward to judgement day in the 2022 elections, but can we last till November?
Will there be anything left of the country?
And if we do, will the GOP respond since they usually don't?
Very depressing.

Canada, with a scant 35 million people, does not have an economy that can be compared to the US.No it's not. You're really not paying attention. Omnicron is over in the rest of the world. Vaccines haven't eliminated the spread of Omnicron, but the surge is over in countries that are vaccinated.
South Africa declared the outbreak over before Christmas. Canada is done. We're reopening, as of yesterday. Our 55,000 infections per day are down to 18,000 yesterday. Few people are being hospitalized or dying. There are 1250 people who are seriously ill. That's what happens when you're 80% vaxxed.
Vaccines won't keep you from getting omnicron, but they will keep you out of the hospital, shorten your illness and save your life. And while you keep passing the virus around among unvaccinated people, for countries with high vaccine rates, we're getting on with life.
Our countries aren't being bankrupted by the costs of testing and treating people. We're not shut down. Few people are dying.
When was the last time repubs won the popular vote? The 12th of never?? Yeah you probably will win back congress so you can once again spread you feces worldwideWhy are you writing me a book? Are you that oblivious to the fact that in recent elections, there was a red wave? Are you that oblivious to the fact that even Democrats realize that the midterms are not going to be kind to them so many are jumping off the ship instead of running for re-election, only to become part of the minority party?

Russians will know what to do with American cracks.

War is not won by the woke.
Wipe your mouth, you have a bit of smegma on your upper lip.
Thanks for agreeing that the vaccines do absolutely nothing in regard to the Omicron spread. A lot on the left seem to think that if everyone were vaccinated, the virus wouldn't be spreading. I'm glad you realize the truth.No it's not. You're really not paying attention. Omnicron is over in the rest of the world. Vaccines haven't eliminated the spread of Omnicron, but the surge is over in countries that are vaccinated.

Ummmmmmmm, they just won in the deep blue state of Virginia so I don't know what you're talking about. Youngkin and others could not have won without winning the popular vote. A lot of democrats are retiring in mass rather than face re-election at the midterms because they already know they will be losing the popular vote. So, you're flat out wrong.When was the last time repubs won the popular vote? The 12th of never?? Yeah you probably will win back congress so you can once again spread you feces worldwide
You're not a mind reader and Trump doesn't have a cult, retard.Trump didn't think so.
His cult approved.
It sends exactly the right message to Russia.Any one of them can double-tap your center mass without thinking twice.
Go back to sleep until Gunsmoke comes on at noon.
I doubt they’re a foolish as you.It sends exactly the right message to Russia.
WTF?You're not a mind reader and Trump doesn't have a cult, retard.
Retard, I said you weren't a mind reader. You're not.WTF?
Yes, Trump does, retard.
So, you need to be a mind reader for this?
August 18 2020
"We are going to win four more years," Trump said at a rally in Oshkosh, Wisconsin on Monday. "And then after that, we'll go for another four years because they spied on my campaign. We should get a redo of four years."
So, what was Trump really thinking?
Tune in to Hannity to find out, what he meant to say, but didn't.
That picture isn't proof of a cult, retard.LOL
Suuuure, uh-huh.
Of course it is. The Cult of Trump proved their undying devotion that day as they sought to keep him president even though he lost his election. Some even donning Trump capes and giving up their lives for him. The very definition of a cult.That picture isn't proof of a cult, retard.
Try using your head for something other than a doorstop.
