Welcome to the Hardcore Husky Forums. Folks who are well-known in Cyberland and not that dumb.

If there will be enough vaccine by the end of May to vaccinate everyone...

who wants to be vaccinated, as Biden is now claiming. Why do we need a $2Trillion dollar Covid Bill?

    Because we need school money for 2025 in order to open now
    Don’t forget about 2030

    Time is whitey's method to oppress others.

    Time is wracist. Or was that being on time is racist?

    Yes that is why about 9% of the 1.9 Trillion is going to be spent on short term Covid relief. Do you not understand the concept of time and wasted money? About 1.5 trillion will be spent AFTER complete vaccination.

    Blind goose stepping Idiot. Being a tool of the elites in the rat party is disgusting. Think for yourself man.

    Sadly, if you've got any devout lefties in your social circle or on the Book of Faces, it's totally believable.

    When I was a lobbyist I quickly got an education about the far left. One can say similar things about far right, but with the far left there are some serious mental and professional issues. We were told to read both sides of every single issue before we approached those on the left. If you walked in to certain extremists offices to lobby them (Maxine Waters is one perfect example I still have nightmares after seeing that evil up close and personal) you find that they are totally ignorant of anything but their point of view. They spend zero time educating themselves with anything other than media that agrees with their point of view. They only listen to and surround themselves with like minded individuals. You could ask 10 far left liberals what Trump did for peace in the Middle East and probably 9 of them could not cite one thing. Their media choices didn't print anything positive about Trump so how would they know? We saw that with the Hunter Biden story. Democrats had zero knowledge of the corruption of biden and his son. Exit polls proved that. The most concerning issue with these extremists is they don't want to know the facts if it is going to be anything positive for any other perspective than theirs. We lobbied a far left liberal who was married to a woman of Lebanese decent. He was complaining to us about the fact he was given the once over by customs on his way back from visiting his family in Lebanon. Keep in mind this was a member of the House of Representatives. My lobbying partner remarked that it was probably because the speaker for Hamas had repeatedly called for the death of Israel and all Jews. The guy denied it and accused my friend of being a liar. He would never take another meeting with us. Typical ignorant rat. We were giving him facts he chose to ignore. I could give more examples but we all know what the far left does. How many people on here know of democrats who disowned family and friends over Trump? The lies they spouted and the hatred were completely made up by the far left sources they chose read or listen to. That is Kobe. He is ignorant. I have no idea how dumb the poor SOB is, for all I know he could be a math prodigy but we all know he is ignorant of facts that are contrary to what he has chosen to absorb.

    If this was truly about helping people who need it, Congress could have passed a bill with the support of the GOP Biden's first week in office.

    Forget the first week of biden's presidency. The Reps had a large bill before congress months ago and pelosi decided to table it and let the little people suffer. She did it for one reason only and that was to keep Trump from getting a win. People could have had checks back in August. By stalling they got pork bailouts for the rat states who are fiscally irresponsible and checks for things like bridges and rail systems that no one will use. Not to mention hurting Trump.
    That’s an interesting retelling of history.

    What part wasn't accurate? Pelosi did block a Covid relief bill that would have provided direct payments to people prior to the election. Are you denying this?

    Was this before or after the Republicans failed to agree to a bill proposed by the Dems? No what I am saying is the inept response by the government really fell on both sides. To state that the blame for the failed government response lies with one side is revisionist history. Both sides played politics with the issues.

    The bill the Rats were pushing was a lot like the bill they are trying to pass now. Billions for programs that had nothing to do with Covid relief. If you're talking specifically about getting money out to people then yes Pelosi is to blame and the only people engaging in revisionist history are the people who deny this.

    After Biden won Nancy agreed to a smaller relief bill that she could of had prior to the election. Before accusing others of engaging in revisionist history may be best for you to actually learn some history.

    For months, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi held the line against a pared-down stimulus plan to prop up the coronavirus-hobbled economy. She insisted that Democrats needed to go big or stay stalled, arguing that this wasn’t the time for stopgaps or patchwork solutions.

    On Friday, that changed. The most powerful woman in Washington stepped to the podium and told reporters on Capitol Hill that House Democrats were ready to accept something closer to the bipartisan $908 billion spending plan as a down payment on follow-up legislation to come next year. The slimmed-down spending — which is still larger than the entire Obama-era economic stimulus plan of 2009 — could be paired with a must-pass, $1.4 trillion government funding measure that faces an end-of-week deadline.


    What changed? Two things, said the Speaker. A vaccine appears nearing delivery. And Joe Biden won the White House.

    Well you certainly cherry-picked a quote from that article. Read the whole thing and it basically says both sides played politics. Only a firmly biased perspective can read that whole article and come away thinking it was all the Dems fault a relief bill wasn’t passed. But you’re free to be wrong in your view.

    Really? Politicians on both sides played politics!!!! Shocking. Only a firmly biased perspective can ignore the fact that Pelosi herself said she was now willing to accept the "bipartisan" $908 Billion bill, that could have been passed before the election, now that Biden had won the Presidency.

    Who was stopping that $908 Billion from coming to a vote in the House, Mr. Revisionist history?

    The Dems were pretty clear in this case that they felt the relief support needed to be as big as they could make it and it would in fact be hurtful to pass something too small that only passed the buck for a future round of relief. They went big, the Reps predictably said no. Have things changed and the relief has changed, yes. And the point is? It’s really simple, both sides stood their idealogical ground and played chicken and nothing got done. Then the ground shifted and both sides have moved in response. It’s stupid DC at work. It’s not an evil plot.

    Really? Politicians on both sides played politics!!!! Shocking. Only a firmly biased perspective can ignore the fact that Pelosi herself said she was now willing to accept the "bipartisan" $908 Billion bill, that could have been passed before the election, now that Biden had won the Presidency.

    Who was stopping that $908 Billion from coming to a vote in the House, Mr. Revisionist history?
    The Dems were pretty clear in this case that they felt the relief support needed to be as big as they could make it and it would in fact be hurtful to pass something too small that only passed the buck for a future round of relief. They went big, the Reps predictably said no. Have things changed and the relief has changed, yes. And the point is? It’s really simple, both sides stood their idealogical ground and played chicken and nothing got done. Then the ground shifted and both sides have moved in response. It’s stupid DC at work. It’s not an evil plot.
    Now who is engaging in revisionist history? And by "both sides moving" you mean Nancy agreeing to the already established $908 Billion bill after the election. Could Nancy have gotten that $908 Billion before the election, yes or no? Could the Republicans have gotten that $908 Billion before the election? You talked out your ass, take the L.
