DizRotus Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 Freedom of the press does not preclude partisan press, nor should it. Newspapers have historically been partisan. I have no problem with media outlets advancing a specific agenda. I have the right and the ability to sift through the news to embrace what I value and reject the rest. I value science and reject opinions not grounded in science. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if that lie were true, why did it take 3 1/2 years to look in the cupboard? If the game show 'doctor' would just stop pontificating on medical issues he knows nothing about, then we wouldn't have to have all the 'experts' explain what he said or meant. That's what I'm tired of. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the right and the ability to sift through the news to embrace what I value and reject the rest. I value science and reject opinions not grounded in science. The right and ability. That's what I find disheartening. Some won't read reports from the other side. It's all nuance that can be sifted through. The more you know.... Now if you say you can decide for yourself then why be fearful of reading 'other's' news? Will it automatically program you to that viewpoint? How? I read the local paper. Then the WSJ online. The Times. Fox. AP. Newsweek. Business Insider. I have the time. I have the need to know. I too, can discern the subtle change in adverbs and adjectives that can change the way reports are understood. It happens with a lot of folk. Science says the more data you have, the better your understanding will be. I guess plenty of folks don't believe that. IMO 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Audio Flynn Posted April 25, 2020 Share Posted April 25, 2020 1 hour ago, Dave A said: Exactly. I read all sides but believe the one that seems to be a real reflection on how things end up working over time. CNN = disinfomation and agenda driven lies to support the downfall of the constitution and people like Rush and Trump are on Jeffersons side. I want America for my children not a luke warm version of socialism and ever declining freedoms and standards of living. I do not need a nanny and I don't want to dictate how my neighbors live but I also don't want them in my business. Funny how the nanny state socialists distance themselves from the inspiration of Mao and Stalin. Also funny we unwillingly gave up freedom in The un Patriot Act and there are China Communist spies and lobbyists all over the USA. DHS is just another corrupt inefficient bureaucracy. 50 years of failed socialist experiments in the big cities, education and the likes of Venezuela to start a list, are lost on the illogical left. Every Communist must grasp the truth; "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." "Problems of War and Strategy" (November 6, 1938), Selected Works, Vol. II, p. 224. The seizure of power by armed force, the settlement of the issue by war, is the central task and the highest form of revolution. This Marxist-Leninist principle of revolution holds well universally, for China and for all other countries. Ibid. p. 219. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted April 25, 2020 Moderators Share Posted April 25, 2020 And you can't fix stupid, this from NJ, what a surprise. A New Jersey woman who crashed her car into a power pole may have passed out after wearing an N95 coronavirus mask behind the wheel for several hours, police said. The woman was taken to a local hospital with a complaint of pain after Thursday’s accident on a two-lane road, the Lincoln Park Police Department said. “The crash is believed to have resulted from the driver wearing an N95 mask for several hours and subsequently passing out behind the wheel due to insufficient oxygen intake/excessive carbon dioxide intake,” the department said on Facebook Friday. The department offered further explanation in a subsequent post, noting the "overwhelming response" to its original statement. Police added, “We also know that nothing was uncovered at the accident scene that would suggest that the driver was under the influence of drugs or alcohol. All this being said, It is certainly possible that some other medical reason could've contributed to the driver passing out.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I don't eat an Altoid before donning my mask, I will almost pass out from my own breath! I brush, floss. Stinkbreath! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's that but even so you would think if you can not breathe you should take the mask off for a minute, and why do you need it in the car when your alone, besides paranoia ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was me too read that the virus can travel by air. Maybe her window was down cause of no AC. If AC working, just hit the recircuiate vent button.

True... definitely not in the car for me. And I do try to get a 'clean ' breath evry now and then even if it means moving away from the crowd. I don't have an answer why anyone would wear it in the car unles you were ubering. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, but i like to look at the big picture, if she is driving where it could be all in the air and she needs a mask it is also all over her clothes and everything in the car. is she going to try to disinfect the whole car ? It's kind of a losing battle at some point, which is well before the point of no oxygen and passing out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk The briefings where the Chief Executive makes a fool of himself and embarasses all the medical experts? So you don't think the "fact checking" is correct? They've done the same thing with all the Dems in office. As well as foreign leaders. But I have a problem with media personalities who look straight faced and say our Chief Executive has never lied. Over and over and over again. That is laughable. What kind of drugs are they on? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the nature of the beast now ... my side is pristine and your side is pure evil. I don’t think they even care if they are believed or not ... their viewers are loyal dispute whatever nonsense is presented and voters are loyal to whichever party they belong to. if we’d learn that we don’t have to choose only between only the two.
