    Re-opening early, will be interesting. I hope we don’t see a spike. I miss many at work who are working remotely. Been wearing a mask at work since Wednesday. Don’t mind, everybody in the office is too important to get sick right now, especially me, being the janitor.

    Reade has left a trail of aggrieved acquaintances in California’s Central Coast region who say they remember two things about her — she spoke favorably about her time working for Biden, and she left them feeling duped.

    By now Rapepublicans should be getting used to it.

    Well, they would if they hadn’t killed themselves by injecting bleach, drinking aquarium cleaner, and jamming flashlights up their asses.

    The State Department inspector general fired by Trump last night apparently was investigating whether Mike Pompeo and his wife used a federal employee to run personal errands for them.

    He was leaking documents to Democrats for years.

    He was appointed by a Democrat and confirmed by a Democrat-led Senate. To oversee the State Department led, at the time, by a Democrat administration.

    This is a nothingburger now unless it was a shocking display of partisanship when he was nominated and confirmed in 2013, too.

    Is it really relevant that one of Pompeo’s staff might have gone out for pizza for Pompeo’s family one night? Is that what we want someone in a position important enough to be subject to Senate confirmation to be doing, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit?

    The result of Comey, McCabe, and this now-fired fuck is that a purge of Democrat-appointed people in the executive branch will accelerate. Demonstrate partisanship against your boss and your ass SHOULD be canned.

    You might be lucky enough to watch the same thing in a year, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. You will have no issues with it if the parties are reversed.

    Big difference between “weaponizing” the West Wing political staff (goes back before the Civil War – before there was a West Wing) and “weaponizing” the DOJ.

    He was appointed by a Democrat and confirmed by a Democrat-led Senate. To oversee the State Department led, at the time, by a Democrat administration.

    There you have it folks. Prosecutorial and investigatory independence abandoned. The department, and it’s various branches, are to be politically directed from the White House and aligned with partisan political interests.

    Bleating Pussy will claim that “it has always been thus” etc. He’ll shout to the heavens about a tarmac meeting.

    Meh.

    They’ve got six months in which to figure out how to shift that political monstrosity into low gear and steer it down the road between the shoulders before they run out of gas. And they are counting on Commander Toilet Tweet to do that. While 50 million Americans lose their jobs and they do their best to kill 2 million of us.

    From the Becker Friedman Institute for Economics at the University of Chicago:

    New research (Ganong, Noel, Vavra, 2020) finds that as designed, the ratio of mean benefits to mean earnings in the data under CARES is roughly 100%. However, this masks substantial heterogeneity. For example, 68% of unemployed workers who are eligible for UI will receive benefits which exceed lost earnings. The median replacement rate is 134%, and one out of five eligible unemployed workers will receive benefits at least twice as large as their lost earnings. Thus, the CARES Act provides income expansion rather than replacement for most unemployed workers.

    https://bfi.uchicago.edu/insight/blog/ui-calculator/

    Remember this when you’re slamming the GOP for a persistently high “unemployment” rate when the economy reopens.

    On the bright side, Deathfrogg has never been so wealthy.

    Today’s reckless omnibus bill:

    • $3 trillion
    • 1,815 pages
    • drafted in secret
    • dozens of subjects
    • no amendments allowed

    Congress is supposed to legislate, but it has become an anti-legislative body, where Democrats and Republicans embrace the dictates of their leaders.

    to stay out of the presidential race is going to be beneficial for Biden in the Fall election.

    I don’t think there is a Democrat governor who has better managed his/her state’s Wuhan crisis than Jay Inslee.

    Smartly, he has walked back the Big Brother-ish requirement for personal information to be collected from restaurant patrons.

    If Trump wins re-election, Inslee is in a great position to run for the 2024 Democrat nomination, I think. In 2024 he’ll have something more useful to tout than an excessive willingness to force installation of solar panels on the north sides of houses just below the Canadian border. Think Giuliani post-9/11.

    I’ll predict that if Trump wins this Fall, Inslee’s the 2024 Democrat nominee. And Inslee’s the 46th president.

    I’ll further predict that in 2024 we’ll be back to calling it The Wuhan Virus.

    Pompeo and other department officers are not elected officials.

    So it’s a very different set of rules with a very different history.

    Cut the the chase, every single future administration may now have the full expectation, starting on inauguration day, that they are entirely free to dismiss and replace the entirety of appointed positions within the ex branch, including DOJ at all levels and including IGs. Which carries with it the very intended consequence that at every level of government, in every single office, and in every position including civil service there can be no independent oversight of the officers appointed by that new administration, nor any practical capacity to hold them to the law.

    Now, finally, Ben Carson can have his $50,000 dining room set and Tom Price can have his NetJets flights to Paris cocaine parties.

    Only it won’t be Ben Carson and Tom Price. And it won’t be ugly furniture and coke parties. It will be Homeland Security Sec. Susan Rice flying Democratic party donors aboard air force jets to overseas fundraising events in Qatar and Singapore. It will be HUD Sec. Omar ordering contracting officers to rig construction bids. It will be Treasury Sec. Waters steering recovery and pandemic response funding to swing states with Democratic governors.

    Put the federal government on Etsy and Rapepublicans predictably put the proceeds up a hooker’s nose. Democrats put the proceeds to work creating more Democratic voters. At this point you’ll want to recall that it was actually Rapepublicans who implemented clean gov civil service reforms more than a century ago. Oh well. How can we not give them what they are asking for?

    @ 28

    Want to talk about memory loss among retirees?

    What makes you think I forgot? That earlier exchange was national data. What I brought up was state-related, which is the only thing that counts.

    Don’t forget it was supposed to hurt Trump that Evan Mullin ran in 2016.

    Last third-party candidate to hurt the GOP in the presidential election was Perot. It’s much more recent that they have hurt Democrats – Gore in 2000, The Chardonnay Lady 2.0 in 2016.

    Last time I pointed out that Amash’s inclusion would hurt Biden, according to a poll. This time I pointed out that the exit of a Libertarian candidate would likely not harm Trump, according to simple common sense.

    I’m being fully consistent, Cz-252.

  36. 36

    @20 “It’s against the law.”

    Dumbfuck doesn’t care about that. No Republican does. In their view, the only thing laws are good for is weaponizing them to use against Democrats. Otherwise, the GOP is a completely lawless group of dysfunctional social misfits.

No need for any doctor to be sitting on his ass at his horse farm whiling away his days posting horsepucky on an obscure liberal local blog.

  39. 39

    Doctor Dumbfuck’s gotta be getting paid for doing nothing. I just can’t figure out how. He’s too young for Social Security and he doesn’t have any income from stock dividends. And I can’t see Putin paying him for the drivel he posts here. If he has a wife, he must be embezzling from her checking account. Otherwise, he’s gotta be a feral unicorn that sustains itself by eating wild grass.

    36,
    Pay attention to the way he and Rapepublicans in general would waive it all off.

    It is essentially no different than their approach to most crime involving the people they regard as part of their “in-group”.

    Two Southern white men pile into their armed neighborhood technical and race around until they find a young black man to hunt down and shot to death. “Self defense” very quickly becomes “nun-with-a-ruler” as soon as the real world happens to notice.

    The law that prohibits ordering a G-8 to run for pizza for your family lies squarely on the same spectrum as the law that makes it a civil rights violation to hunt black men for sport. And as far as Rapepublicans are concerned, if the “right kind” of white man is doing it, it’s okay.

    Setting aside all the evidence in transcripts of Flynn’s criminal activities prior to the Kislyak calls, Flynn had eyewitness, personal, first hand knowledge of major felonies committed by his business partners. And the FBI knew that he did. So when he voluntarily lied to them repeatedly about Kislyak they charged it and used it for leverage to gain his cooperation against his sleazy foreign spy business partners.

    This is a thing the FBI does every month if not every week in America. They do it in order to convict sleazy foreign spy business partners. The only thing that makes this different is that the target is a Trump appointee and a Rapepublican. And that is apparently all that matters to a “die-hard Trump supporter”.

    What does not matter to them is that Flynn, and Barr, and Trump are far more interested in protecting the sleazy foreign spy business partners than in protecting The United States.

    Rapepublicans are just not cut out for this work.

  48. 48

    It seems everyone but the night janitor wanted to know who Mr. Flynn was talking to.

    Florid example of the sort of insane horseshit the trolls and just about Every Rapepublican You Know are falling victim to right about now.

    Try this: THEY ALREADY KNEW WHO HE WAS TALKING TO.
    Idiots.
    The identity of the foreign sleazeball secret agent adversary targets of the NSA captures are in the product as distributed to the principals. What they did not know was what was the name of the US citizen, serving on a major party political campaign, with whom the foreign sleazeball secret agent adversaries were having long, late night phone sex.

    Michael Flynn!

    So yes, they filed routine paperwork in order to learn the name of a US citizen they had very good reason to suspect was selling out his country to a whole bunch of foreign spies. Because that is the business Flynn was in at the time and because these are the kinds of people we pay our counter espionage and national security professionals to protect us from.

    Now, there’s a good reason trolls, and Rapepublicans turn this around and get it backwards in this particular way. And that’s because it’s very, very, very important to them that drooling nut jobs everywhere forget all about that dance card of spies and corrupt dictators Michael Flynn was busy servicing on his knees during this particular time frame. They need to turn it around and put all the attention on Flynn in hopes that your Crazy Uncle Liberty will just overlook the fact that after getting his ass canned for being bi-polar and refusing to take his meds, Flynn went into business selling out America to anybody willing to meet the opening price.

    Rapepublicans are just not cut out for this work.

    Got my drive-thru Wuhan test today (my better half was tested yesterday). There were three stations. Two guys in a truck in station 1 to make sure I was on the list on their clipboard. Why it couldn’t be one guy in a truck, I don’t know. Union thing, probs.

    Then pulled forward and held up my ID and my medical insurance card to the driver’s side window, which were photographed and God only knows what will happen with that data. That was station 2, and there were four people there. A nasal swab and culturette tube were placed in a baggie and put on my dashboard.

    I drove to station 3. There were two people there. Not sure what the second person was for, but the first one tickled my olfactory lobe with that swab, first time I had ever had that done. By the time I was done getting reamed, a second vehicle pulled behind me.

    So, eight people, total, for mostly just me. I felt…

    Biden campaign doesn’t consider Latinos ‘part of their path to victory,’ political operatives say

    Former Vice President Joe Biden’s campaign has received some scathing reviews from Latino political experts.

    Biden’s primary campaign had a distant, if not “tense,” relationship with Latino voters as he not only neglected to reach out to them but never quite rectified “his connection to the Obama administration’s aggressive deportation policy,” Politico reports. Biden became the presumptive Democratic nominee “in spite of, not because of” his Latino outreach, Politico writes, but more than 20 Latino political operatives say his luck may not hold in the general election.

    There are a lot of Latino business owners that Trump would like to see back on the job. He has six months to consistently fight to reopen the country while Democrats consistently fight to keep it shut down. Won’t be enough to win California.

    But he didn’t win California last time, either.

    Choose a better nominee. You are running out of time.

    Scott said more than 240 firefighters had responded to the blaze before it was extinguished shortly after 8 p.m. An initial investigation of the scene identified the business as Smoke Tokes, a warehouse distributor with supplies for butane hash oil, he said. The cause of the fire has not been determined.

    …a US Attorney can elect not to prosecute him for lying…

    Clapper lied to Congress.

    During a public hearing in March 2013, Mr. Clapper was asked by Sen. Ron Wyden, Oregon Democrat, if the NSA collects “any type of data at all on millions or hundreds of millions of Americans.”

    “No sir,” Mr. Clapper responded. “Not wittingly”

    Classified documents leaked to the media revealed three months later that the NSA had been compelling U.S. telecommunication providers for copies of telephone records, known as metadata, for essentially every call and text occurring over domestic networks.

    DOJ elected to let the statute of limitations expire on Clapper.

    But now Rapepublicans have blown open that Overton Window to include naked lies for purely corrupt and/or partisan political purposes.

    Covid-19 cases are spiking in reopened Texas. But it’s just the flu.

    No, it’s more testing, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. Do more testing, find more cases.

    The cases aren’t increasing because of the reopening. They’re increasing because they’re being detected now.

    Here was ABC’s initial story headline:

    Texas Cases of Covid 19 Increasing By Thousands Since Reopening

    Which sounds very similar to Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit’s stupid spew.

    Here’s ABC’s headline after it got called out for its bullshit:

    Texas COVID-19 cases rise, governor’s office says more testing being done

    You’re a useless, fucking clown, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. The sad thing is that QoS McHillbilly @ 100 took you for your word. He’ll think twice before doing that again.

  106. 106

    Greg Abbott will come out of this a winner.

    “Since [COVID-19 testing] started, we did 330,000 tests in March and April. Since May 1, we have done over 330,000 — so in 16 days we have doubled our testing from the previous entire two months,” Wittman said.

    “The governor has been clear that as the state of Texas conducts more tests, we will see the raw number of cases rise,” Wittman said. “However, the [rolling seven-day] average positivity rate has steadily declined from our high April 13 [of a bit more than 13%] to around 5% today. Our hospitalizations remain steady, and Texas has one of the lowest death rates per capita in the nation.”

    Andrew Cuomo will come out of this a loser. Hence Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit tries to smear Abbott by parroting an ABC lie.

    Do more testing, find more cases. It’s the whole point of expanding testing, Roger Dumbfuck Rabbit. To identify more cases.

  107. 107

    DOJ elected to let the statute of limitations expire on Clapper.

    Good afternoon. Thank you all for being here today.

    The three previous times that I’ve come to the floor to explain my votes to kill funding for life saving pandemic preparedness, I have begun my floor remarks explaining my decision with a recognition of the solemn nature and the importance of the occasion.

    It’s true that on three separate occasions and three distinct pieces of legislation I was absolutely instrumental in killing funding for vital pandemic preparedness supplies like masks, gloves, sanitizer, and testing.

    But today I’m proud to announce that I’ve had a very comprehensive and incisive conversation with COVID-19. And I wish to share that with you all today.

    I met with COVID-19 for more than two hours in my office. Our conversation was both frank and enlightening. Some have argued that without the vital supplies I was instrumental in blocking, COVID-19 has been free to run rampant through our communities killing tens of thousands of us. But COVID-19 has assured me that things like masks, gloves, sanitizer, and testing are not needed so long as everyone has a flashlight up their butt and drinks plenty of aquarium cleaner every day. And COVID-19 also informed me that all those people died of either the flu or diabetes.

    So everything is good. And I’m not to blame if your Nana dies.

    Thank you.

    BeerPong,

    How is Puddy wrong in using the OFFICIAL Georgia Department of Public Health data? Man you really are a moron. You confirmed it above @114, Unlike you who throws up BULLSH^TTIUM from unknown sources, Puddy uses the official web sites and provides the links for Perfect Puddy Posts.

    For example the AJC places two links in their article from April 23, and April 29th. Yeah, that’s useful data on May 17th since the chart goes back and compares the last 14 days. You just like the NY Slimes look at Goergia and HOPE beyond HOPE that there will be more death and destruction; the new DUMMOCRETIN mantra: Pray for death and destruction!

    “In recent weeks, DPH data issues caused confusion over whether novel coronavirus deaths had topped 1,000 — they are now more than 1,490. The agency erroneously posted at least twice that children died.”

    https://dph.georgia.gov/covid-19-daily-status-report

    And the five counties being FLAGGED in the AJC article are those in the shutdown counties of Atlanta and suburbs.

    Well now that this spike is coming after Donald screamed “Get it Open” and the governor complied…..

    The counties of Potter and Randall that could reasonably be described as “Amarillo” 2016:

    Potter: 68.8% Donald
    Randal: 80.6% Donald.

    How many folks around Amarillo can die or watch a family member die before it becomes concerning for Donald?

    Amarillo Fake News

    AMARILLO, Texas (KVII) — ABC 7 reported the outbreak at the JBS Plant has had in Amarillo due to the company busing dozens of workers to and from Amarillo last week. Video of the buses arriving near the Walmart on Georgia showing that proper distancing and mask procedures were not followed was shown.

    In fact, four of the six buses sent for JBS workers were not even used.

    During Monday morning’s COVID-19 briefing, Mayor Ginger Nelson was asked about the portion of the city disaster declaration that allows Amarillo to regulate ingress and egress from the city.

    Nelson said then, as she said Friday, there have been discussions, but no plans, to supervise the loading and unloading of the JBS buses.

    “We’re really relying on business owners and individuals to step up, step up their own personal responsibility to make sure they are staying distant and wearing masks. Those are the two most important things,” Nelson said.

    At the briefing, leaders announced no plans for any meat packing plants in the area to close.

    If only there were someone somewhere in Texas who could force meat packers to be responsible. Someone with some real power.

    Why didn’t the use the buses?

  120. 120

    “Gov. Brian Kemp’s office issued an apology after a Georgia Public Health Department chart wrongly reported a downward trend in #coronavirus cases.”

    Oh, my gosh. Falsified charts is bad. People dying is bad. Okay. Well, fine then. We’ll just have to “look into” that one as well. Many of my top Special Counsels are going to be busy for some time. Maybe Robert Mueller can come back? I don’t know. He’s probably tired of the death threats.

    If Kamala is available she’d be great. Wait. Stacy Abrams is an attorney? OMG! That’s perfect!

    Gallup has Trump approval at 49% in its poll released May 15. MOE +/-4.

    He’s been at 49% in five of the nine polls Gallup has published in 2020.

    At this point in 2012, Obama’s approval was 47%.

    All of this is as useful as any other national poll. It’s not.

    Meanwhile the leftist libtards at Politico are shocked that Florida with a similar population to NYS has way less death and destruction, hallmarks of DUMMOCRETIN led states.

    “”First, let’s just come out and say it: DeSantis looks more right than those who criticized the Sunshine State’s coronavirus response. According to the latest Florida figures, fewer than 2,000 have died, and around 43,000 have been infected. That’s a fraction of the dire predictions made for Florida when spring breakers swarmed the beaches, and those numbers are dwarfed by similarly sized New York, which has seen 12 times more deaths and nearly eight times more infections. (Check out POLITICO’s coronavirus tracker for more.) More people reportedly died in New York nursing homes than in all of Florida.“”

    Oopsie, poor BeerPong. When you lost Politico, you are losing most of the battle.

    @117

    Because
    a:

    The number I cited that you lied about on Friday (nearly 800) was on the state website.

    b:

    Now that you know the state website is often wrong, don’t use it anymore.

    c:

    The state website line graph of New cases is often wrong. It doesn’t take much to see that. It’s like they’re not updating it in a timely fashion. If say, you read the attached data file that says the 9am updated included 119 new cases but hovering over the dot in the line graph for the current days says zero cases. this has been consistent for weeks.

    And if you go in past the 7pm update where the data says 795 cases but hovering over the line graph shows 119 cases….well someone with half a brain would notice a problem and not rush to the interwebs with ‘PROOF’ and ‘FACTS’.

    Almost like the script they wrote to generate the line graph and produce the chart on the website is only queried once every few days. Example, it still says 15 new cases for yesterday (preliminary). I’m not a moron so I know that isn’t accurate so I can look at the raw data provided elsewhere.

  127. 127

    The number I cited that you lied about on Friday (nearly 800) was on the state website.

    Really? Puddy searched and it was from three days previous. The actual website used by Puddy each day and posted above that Friday had 323. This was after the time you posted your comment. And most of the cases were from the five counties from Atlanta. Puddy only counted four of them because I had to run and get something done!

    So who is the liar BeerPong?

    The state web site is updated thrice a day. It says that right on the front page.

    “Beginning Monday 5/11/2020, the Daily Status Report will be updated three times a day at 9 a.m., 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. “

    Once again you proved to everyone how much you lie and how often you lie! You haven’t visited the web site or you’d known this!

    HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    * The ABC story does make clear it’s referring to “reported” cases. Reported cases, of course, can jump because of better reporting; but this implies the state’s reporting was fault to begin with, which implies the decision to reopen was based on faulty data.

    132,
    I don’t actually believe that Clapper misunderstood the question in that way. I believe he probably reckoned that tacking on the qualifier would be good enough for the leadership who understood that, as a member of the intelligence committee, Wyden already knew the answer and also knew that Clapper could not answer it honestly without exposing a surveillance program the existence of which was itself classified. It was a trap set by Wyden who was frustrated about the program.

    There’s a world of difference between the Senate declining to refer that to DOJ in order to protect the surveillance program and a President ordering the AG to move for dismissal to buy the silence of a co-conspirator in a criminal conspiracy to commit treason.

    Be careful. I’m trying to embarrass you again.

  159. 159

    Oh Steve,

    Those words are not Puddy’s! Try again!

  160. 160

    …asking a viable question.

    Sorry. No Puddy. This is you lying about shit again.

    Hoft was arguing that two people Trump hired to help repair his disgracefully inadequate response to a deadly pandemic should be prosecuted and go to prison for policy decisions. “Asking a viable question” is you fleeing from the degenerate Jim Hoft bailey to hide in the “viable question” motte.

    More lying just makes Father-God hate you even more.
    Satan is gaining the upper hand.

  161. 161

    @154 Yeah, but he’s only a Gloria Vanderbilt Vanderbilt, who was only a great-great-great-granddaughter Vanderbilt and not a Biltmore generation Vanderbilt, so he doesn’t have the whole fucking railroad. Plus his mom was a big spender, and lived almost forever, with the result that, according to Wikipedia, “Upon her death, Vanderbilt left her son, Anderson Cooper, almost her entire estate, evaluated at less than $1.5 million.” (Heck, I’m worth that much.) So the poor sap has to work for a living.

  162. 162

    157,
    Now admit that for at least a while, when “Clippy” was annoying the fuck out of a billion users, you didn’t think that maybe, just possibly Gates was the anti-Christ?

  163. 163

    161,
    Yeah, sure. But when your mom is Gloria Vanderbilt I think you grow up knowing that you are not “one of the regular people”.

    Doesn’t make him a bad guy. But probably made him exceptionally driven to succeed.

    @127

    Not content to have your head so far up your ass you can smell a kidney you’re trying to get a bit of fresh air from the lungs…

    “Beginning Monday 5/11/2020, the Daily Status Report will be updated three times a day at 9 a.m., 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. “ Blah blah blah, “So who is the liar BeerPong? “

    After being shown that GA has apologized for continuing to report false or incorrect information on their website you still want to go with what’s on their website. Piddles has clearly never been to a website that says “Our Tap List updated daily” and clicked through to notice that it is updated rarely if at all. If it says three times a day, it must be so.

    But as of this very moment 4:40pm PDT the site indicates there were 16 new cases found on May 16. And yet the data sheets that you can click through, and what the state reported to the CDC yesterday is 440 cases.

    There is no data reflected for today on https://dph.georgia.gov/covid-19-daily-status-report at all as of this moment and it’s after 7pm eastern. But CDC indicates 493 new cases in GA for Sunday. “They’ve updated it. It says right there they are updating at 9, 1 and 7. Clear as day.” Piddles

    Piddles “Believe the WEBSITE. You’re a LIar.”

  166. 166

    @162 Admittedly, I was probably more susceptible to such thoughts when Windows 7 came out.

  167. 167

    Yes dot bombed Puddy knew he was a Vanderbilt. Butt as you probably forgot, he went on Howard Sterno and proclaimed

    “I don’t believe in inheriting money. I think it’s an initiative sucker. I think it’s a curse.”

    Since he’s one of those rich Hamptons guys, you know, https://hamptons.curbed.com/maps/hamptons-celebrity-homes-map

    Hardly any of them are voting for Trump!

  168. 168

    @167 “I don’t believe in inheriting money.”

    That apparently didn’t stop from taking it. And his mother’s celebrity and connections probably helped his career prospects, too, e.g. making his first TV appearance at age 3. But to be fair, Cooper went to considerable personal exertions to get where he is today.

  169. 169

    @167 “Hardly any of them are voting for Trump!”

    They have more brains than you. That’s why they’re rich and famous, and you’re not.

    Somebody was talking about Georgia…

    They reported a pretty bad day with almost 800 new cases and 44 deaths.

    Puddybud, the HA DUMMOCRETIN disinfectant! spews: #84

    Friday, 5/15/20 at 7:10 pm
    Seem BeerPong is talking about Georgia, again. Claimed 800 cases.

    Just as Puddy originally wrote above.

    Puddy highlighted BeerPong’s use of the word They

    pronoun: Used to refer to the ones previously mentioned or implied.

    So who is implied by your they BeerPong? It certainly is NOT the CDC or Johns Hopkins!

    BeerPong is such an F’IN Liar! Changing its tune like always.

  171. 171

    wabbit,

    Anderson Pooper is one of yours! Naturally you forgot that!

  172. 172

    . Butt as you probably forgot

    Yeah. That’s okay. I’ll leave Howard Stern, satellite radio fart gags, and celebutard home tours to you and The Q Clearance Pussy.

  173. 173

    170,
    Bill Clinton testifying under oath would be so fucking proud of you right this minute.

    Jesus, not so much.

  174. 174

    @170

    Oh for fuck’s sake. The raw data is there on the GA site (they) but you insist on just looking at the homepage.

    https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1467304/

    What they are reporting on their spreadsheets and to the CDC does not match what they are displaying on their interactive chart on the main page.

    If I could find the correct number in @67 you should have been able to to since you are a master at computers, sitting in first class, clients all over the world, rental car upgrades…

    Or maybe you’re lying about all of it?

  175. 175

    Oh dot bombed, those are BeerPong’s words. I realize you are a thick skulled Neanderthal!

    Since you love to critique when all the facts were still out, now you figger it out dot bombed. There was no reference to the CDC or Johns Hopkins

    Somebody was talking about Georgia…

    They reported a pretty bad day with almost 800 new cases and 44 deaths.

    Now it is possible that increased testing is the sole reason for the increase but probably not a good sign that the new cases reported in now the third week from re-opening the bowling alleys has jumped over 1,000 (so far, full reporting will come by Monday.

    GA, 5,000 New cases is great! Open it up.

    One week, still feeling the effects of social Distancing and closures:
    5,000 new cases. See it’s not climbing. Great!

    two weeks, still feeling the effects of social distancing and closures
    4,000 new cases, we’re there folks! It’s working!

    Three weeks when post-reopening transmissions would be expected to start showing up
    5,100 new cases. Nothing to worry about folks. It’s all because of more tests. No tests no disease as the President was saying. MAGA!

    Probably a sphincter tightening weekend in the Governor’s mansion. If the number of confirmed new cases continues to rise…you probably fucked up.

    Bowling alleys, GA, Governor’s mansion – All that coverage at the CDC, eh?

    So the only sphincters tightening this weekend were yours dot bombed and BeerPong!

    dot bombed – sucka’d again by another assesHorse libtard!

  176. 176

    91,000 > 15

    At this rate the new “Doing Great!” goal Donald said this week “Could be 95,000 deaths by the time this is over) could come as early as Tuesday. There is no Trophy or performance bonus check for getting this kind of thing done early.

    You know it’s eating Donald alive that the Darkie got to give a commencement address that is now widely being praised and spread on social media yesterday while Donald ate a Big Mac and listened to Melania saying, “Don’t fucking touch me! I’m not one of your golf clubs. Or a fifteen year old. Grip it yourself.”

  177. 177

    Ohhh BeerPong@174,

    When did you introduce the CDC to the conversation

    Sunday, 5/17/20 at 5:01 pm

    See ya!

  178. 178

    dot bombed,

    I’ll admit I listened to Howard Sterno years ago when I got my first XM radio in my car. Way too vulgar, like you! Not my cup of tea then and certainly not my cup of tea now.

    I listen to Fox – 115
    ESPN – 80
    ESPN Xtra – 81

    most of the time!

  179. 179

    Me @158: “Be careful. I’m trying to embarrass you again.”

    You @171: “Anderson Pooper is one of yours!”

    Gotcha!

    Mario Cuomo offers an incredibly dismissive take on the deaths of the elderly.

    Anne McCloy
    @AnneMcCloyNews

    .@NYGovCuomo says no one should be prosecuted for nursing home deaths. Governor says vulnerable people are going to die from this virus no matter what you do. @CBS6Albany

    He gave himself a get out of jail free pass for his decision to inoculate hundreds of nursing homes by parking patients infected with the Wuhan in them.

    How convenient.

    now aiming for WW2 Civil War.

    No. Really.

    That is their plan. And to get there fast enough that Barron can still enjoy a sixteenth birthday partying at a private compound on St. John hunting prostitutes with a machine gun.

    What? It’s a Trump family tradition.

  186. 186

    @177

    Really piddles. How dumb can you be?

    The state of Georgia is reporting numbers to the CDC. They are the numbers that can be found if you actually read the datasets that are on the State website.

    Those numbers, provided by them TO the CDC and the public if you take the time to weed through the data and not the summary (eds. note, the summary is inaccurate and they got caught, resulting in an apology) are not the same as the numbers you cling to from the main page bar graph onTheir website. That main page is your link that you say is the ‘real’ number. It really doesn’t matter if they were reporting those oddly different numbers to CDC, Swedish Hospital, NASA, Guy Smiley or the NHLs Guy Lafleur. The numbers are being provided by them and are not what is on the main page you linked to. But they exist. In the data sets that apparently you refuse to look at relying on the now proven lying erroneous summary.

    Point two, now at 10:10PDT the chart on the page you link to through all of this has no data past 5/16/20 where they continue to display only 16 cases were found. Yesterday. This we know is not true as they provided ‘real’ data to CDC and in their data sets publicly available that you refuse to look at.

    Do go on another rant about how the page is updated at 9am/1pm/10pm since even the most partisan of morons can clearly see that updated at some point yesterday is not updated daily at 9am/1pm/10pm.

    You even put in in bold @127

    The state web site is updated thrice a day. It says that right on the front page.

    “Beginning Monday 5/11/2020, the Daily Status Report will be updated three times a day at 9 a.m., 1 p.m. and 7 p.m. “

    Those numbers that you pretend don’t come from the Georgia State Department of Health are then being reported into the larger world.

    I’ll call your attention again to this.

    This dashboard gives up-to-date counts for cases, deaths and other key statewide measures for the novel coronavirus. We update it at 9:15 a.m., 1:15 p.m. and 7:15 p.m. (Sources: Georgia Department of Public Health, Atlanta Journal-Constitution analysis)”

    If AJCs numbers are not from GDPH and are in any way inaccurate, GDPH hasn’t raised a peep of objection. A normal person would say, “those numbers are accurate.” A freak like Piddles will say, “Show me where I said AJC?”

    430 new cases today (no data on GDPH main page for today, 430 in the data sets main page links)
    440 new cases yesterday (16 on GDPH main page 440 in the data sets main page links)
    795 new cases Friday (342 on GDPH main page 795 in the data sets main page links)

    Good DAY! Sir! I said good DAY!

    Channeling Nixon Dep’t

    I wonder if Trump has a secret plan to end the pandemic …

  188. 188

    You really keep trying when you are caught.

    So are you tweedledee or tweedledum? How do you think Puddy came up with the 323 number vs. your 800 number?

    There are three Excel spreadsheets updated in the ga_covid_data.zip thrice daily. In one there is the age of each person who dies. In another it contains the numbers per county. From that and a previous version you can see the change delta. The third has the demographics data. Now how would Puddy know this unless Puddy actually “downloaded the file”?

    You love to deliver flowery responses to never posted commentary. Since you never posted on Friday where your data came from Puddy used the same link as before when you said last week there was an outbreak in Georgia. Back then Puddy used the same GDPH link. Puddy has not changed his data source. You have. First it was the AJC then it was the CDC now you compare the AJC to the CDC and GDPH. It’s no wonder you ramble on so much. Your mind is very scattered.

    You don’t post links. Then when someone identifies your data as being hijacked without attribution, you stoooooopidly scream LEEENKS LEEENKS!

    Weak sauce arguments!

    Good DAY to you too!
