Conservatives will see the alleged chaos at the Kabul airport and use it as an opportunity to criticize and blame Joe Biden. You know what I saw? I saw a normal, average day at the airport. They were giving guided tours.
Watch and see
Well, Democrats got what they wanted. The head of the Islamic State in Afghanistan said that they would honor the rights of women in Afghanistan, and then he said under Muslim law. So, the Democrats will go with the women are going to get their rights. The Taliban agreed to it, but they’re not going to forget about the Sharia law, where women don’t have any rights. So just watch and see.
Are we satisfied?
Let’s talk about Mayor Anne Taylor’s first 100 days. Are we really satisfied with her first 100 days?
Proven true
I’ve got two sons. They both voted for President Joseph Biden. I’m a conservative. I didn’t vote for Joe Biden, but when one of my sons told me that he voted for Biden, I told him that with his college education that he was educated beyond his intelligence. Well, Joseph Biden has just proved that what I told my son was true.
I don’t understand
I don’t understand how a priest, or a politician, or a governor, or anybody would say prayer alone would take away your disease. Not a vaccination? Have these people forgotten that in the ’50s, to go to school, even today, we have to have a polio, measles and other shots. What is the matter with them? Most of us just don’t understand. And it’s free. There is no chip that will go into our body that the government will control us. There is no other vaccine. Vaccines have been developed by scientists. God has given so much to these scientists to be intelligent, creative and to create new vaccines to help people. All over the world, American scientists have helped sick people end so many diseases. I don’t understand at all what’s up with these guys.
No shot, no license
I have an idea how to make these deadbeats get vaccinated, because I believe it should be mandatory just like polio, chickenpox and TB. That’s what saved our country from those diseases. Start giving people three months to get vaccinated, or you’re going to suspend or revoke their driver’s license. And, because 16-year-olds can be vaccinated too, no 16-year-old who has not been vaccinated can apply for a driver’s license. I can’t see any other way we can make these people do this, except start suspending their driver’s licenses. If they give them like three or four months to get the vaccine and then have a deadline, that’s it. Your driver’s license is suspended until you go and get vaccinated.
Obama Middle School?
Why would we name a school after John Lewis? He never came to Lake County while he was living. He went through Alabama and all through the South, but he never came up here. At least, Mr. Obama came here twice — as a senator and as a president. Why didn’t we name that school after Barack Obama?
Religion is to blame
I’m just wondering if anyone else has ever stopped to think of the reason for all of the atrocities in the world. To me, it’s quite simple. It’s due to religion. The belief and practice of men’s desires that are thousands of years old that are still followed to this day. Look at what’s happening in Afghanistan. Look at the hatred for Jews. Look at the hatred for Muslims. Look at the hatred for Christians. Look at the hatred for all of these religions. It is religion that makes the world a place almost uninhabitable.
For the good of mankind
I’m so tired of these whiny, ignorant people screaming their rights are being violated when required to wear a mask for public safety and prevent another economic collapse. What about our rights to stay healthy and keep working? What about our right not to get sick from the unvaccinated people who keep trampling on our health rights? Why can’t they see the importance of this for the good of mankind, and for the children?
