Stupid Republican idea of the day

Can someone point to a link that has the text of the bill?

Sorry, only a footnote that the congress.gov site hasn’t yet received the text.

Just a quick little note to say Fuck You to Republicans who are so vehemently against “socialism” and “welfare” that they’re willing to do harm to living, breathing human beings, but are more than willing to embrace both of them when it’s bailing out corporations and giving more tax breaks to the wealthy. Fuck you guys.

There are atheists in foxholes, but there are no libertarians in pandemics.

But Meghan McCain said just this morning that it’s a libertarian philosophy, not socialist, and we all know what a wise political pundit she is (or pundint, as she pronounces it).

UPDATE: That link now has the text of the bill.

Never happen… He can barely string two words together :smiley:

A valiant attempt to wrest the “Dumbest Congresscritter” crown from Louie Gohmert:

Well, not in Ohio, you can’t. Gov. DeWine ® just closed all bars and restaurants in the state. And he’s saying that the school closure is likely to extend for the rest of the year.

For comparison, the CDC only recommends closing a school if one of the students or staff is diagnosed, and then only for a few weeks.

There’s a part of me that thinks that he just wanted to close schools in general, and saw this as a golden opportunity. But I’m not sure why he wants to trash the economy of the state.

Always look on the blight side of life! And remember! Even a coffin can have a silver lining!

How crazy is this shit? This crazy…

Governor of Illinois has just closed all bars and restaurants, too.

Why don’t they just go to Italy? :rolleyes:

David Clarke, former Sheriff of Milwaukee, Individual 1’s favorite black cop:
“GO INTO THE STREETS FOLKS. Visit bars, restaurants, shopping malls, CHURCHES and demand that your schools re-open. NOW!
If government doesn’t stop this foolishness…STAY IN THE STREETS.
END GOVERNEMNT CONTROL OVER OUR LIVES. IF NOT NOW, WHEN?
THIS IS AN EXPLOITATION OF A CRISIS.”

“It is now evident that this is an orchestrated attempt to destroy CAPITALISM. First sports, then schools and finally commercial businesses. Time to RISE UP and push back. Bars and restaurants should defy the order. Let people decide if they want to go out.”

That man makes Daffy Duck look like Bertrand Russell.

I mean, by all means, vulnerable conspiracy-spouting, Trump-suckling boomers and assorted Rugged Individualists - do go out, socialize, kiss each other on the fucking mouth to show everyone that you’re NOT AFRAID OF NO HOAX and WON’T BACK DOWN. It is brave and noble. This goes triple for fundie christians - that chalice won’t communion itself !
One condition though : first you gotta agree not to go to no hospital neither when y’all come down with the flu, 'cause that would be SOCIALISM and also they need the beds and ventilators for people who actually *should *keep breathing.

Furthermore, I’d like to note that Barack HUSSEIN Obama never once spat in anyone’s mouth or licked their hands, and if he were still president right now he’d tell you you aren’t allowed to either.
