Die for your beliefs
More Top Picks Best Cocktail Smokers For Enthusiasts
Hey Republicans, have you noticed that your friends at Fox and right-wing leaders don’t care whether you live or die? They would literally rather see you dead than listening to scientists or Democrats who are trying to save your lives. Oh, a few have recently started to backpedal now that the pandemic of the unvaccinated has become so obvious, but Cal Thomas’ opinion piece in the News-Sun still suggests listening to Rand Paul and Peter Doocy rather than the Biden administration. These right-wingers are asking you to die for their beliefs. Think about that.
Be proud for two minutes
I hope any athlete that disrespects our country loses. Can’t they just love and be proud of their country for two minutes when on the world stage? How do you think that looks to the rest of the world? Do you think any athlete from China, Russia or Iran would dare disrespect their countries and turn their back on their flags? Doubt it. And let’s be honest, those countries are not exactly the best when it comes to human rights.
Heaven and hell
As I understand it, Christians believe in heaven and hell. Most televangelists live lavish lifestyles, while many of their contributors make significant sacrifices to give them money. They must know they will be going to hell for their deceitful greed which leads me to conclude they’re not even Christians. They are charlatans.
We want our country back
My husband and I have still not received our income tax refund. All our country’s money is being spent to fly Biden’s immigrants to secret locations, maintain the immigrants in Marriott Hotels, feed and clothe the immigrants, etc. We have our own oppressed people in the United States that need help. All the politicians are just importing these people for future votes while they live in their huge homes, fly in private planes and spend our money. We want our country back.
For shame
I can certainly see how Union Pacific Railroad can make huge profits and gains in the stock market. After all, they rarely repair any of their crossings until accidents start accumulating by cars going over those terrible bumps, ruining the cars and resulting in people getting hurt. For shame, UPR. You need to do a much better job.
Look it up
I’d rather be a moron or an old bird than an insurrectionist. By the way, how many decades ago did people use that term “old bird?” I’d bet that you got your polio vaccine in that pandemic. Look it up in your encyclopedia.
