The Governor of South Dakota got a standing ovation at CPAC for saying that Dr. Fauci isn’t always right. WTF?
Well, if that is the case lady where does that leave you on the scale of right and wrong?
What did Dr. Fauci say about her comments? That they were unfortunate or was it “not helpful”? He quoted the idea of science and facts. What does she follow? Satan and falsehoods.
It’s one thing to lie and know you are doing it. It’s another to not only know it but try to convince others that something else is going on (ie gaslighting). It’s quite another to convince yourself of your own lies. Gaslighting yourself seems to be the new norm for people on what was once the Republican Party.
They are using their own lies to try and steamroll legislation to restrict voting. On some level they then know it’s horse manure.
Some are pissed at Brett Kavanaugh because he would not go along with some of the idiotic voter suppression cases that have made their way to the Supreme Court. For the moment the Supreme Court ain’t playing that game.
You’ll be surprised to learn that Fox News is. Yeah, I know. Right?
Tucker Carlson spewed some idiotic thing the other week and said, “that’s science.”
As John Oliver pointed out – just because you say something is science doesn’t make it so.
As Neil DeGrasse Tyson has pointed out, on many occasions, science is the search for truth.
And to quote Jack Nicholson from “A Few Good Men” – “The Truth? You can’t handle the truth!”
PS I know my readers can handle the truth so here goes. I know. You are wondering what those photos are of, aren’t you? (No? Too bad, I’m going to tell you anyway.)
Remember I told you about that story I read in grade school about a girl who came home and started telling her mom about something she was embarrassed about at school and her mom, who was working evaporating maple sap into syrup, asked her daughter if she really wanted to tell her this? The girl said no and the mom gave her some hot half evaporated syrup and the girl went outside and made little swirly candy like things in the freshly fallen snow?
Yeah, well that story made a big impression on me and I’ve tried making snow syrup things for years and it’s never worked. I tried recently when we had snow on the back deck. It looked like I had taken a piss and now I had maple syrup on my deck. Great.
I finally took some snow, mixed it in a bowl with some not hot maple syrup and shoved the concoction into some Tahitian head popsicle forms. This is the result.
Basically the maple syrup ran to the bottom of the form. The snow stayed near the top and in-between didn’t get enough stuff or it melted away. Then you can’t pop the thing easily out to the form because of the indents. But I think you can make out an eye in the profile pictures.
The tip of the thing tastes like maple syrup, the rest tastes like snow. Snow has a kind of rusty taste to it. (No, it wasn’t yellow. Shut up.)
That is all carry on.
The governor of North Dakota appears to be an attractive woman so why wouldn’t people listen to her? Trouble is she is a blatant liar. I would believe Dr. Fauci long before I would believe a pretty face that lies.
