Partisan ideology AND the capacity–and willingness–to lie shamelessly:
If McConnell had said that two days ago, it would have been a great April Fools joke! But as it was, it was simply GOP-style communication. (How proud Joseph Goebbels would be, if only he could be here to see it.)
Remember 6 years ago, when Hobby Lobby told the US Supreme Court that providing health insurance for its employees was an important religious belief of theirs (like making sure 3rd parties doesn’t pay for their employee’s contraception)?
Well, maybe its not that important. They closed their stores and furloughed almost all their workers rather than spend some of their billions to provide said health insurance.
Who could have guessed?
Hobby Lobby provides health insurance for its employees the way people used to provide fancy soap and towels to their guests.
It’s for lookin’ at, not using.
CMC fnord!
Actually, no, that is not why Hobby Lobby closed its stores. They had to be forced to by the police.
I think he means that they furloughed the workers rather than provide health insurance, which they could well afford to do. This after forcing them to work at risk of losing their jobs if they didn’t, in the middle of a pandemic.
And I’m willing to bet that most of their workers weren’t full-time anyway, which means they wouldn’t be getting health insurance to begin with. Their religious principles were only a cover for being cheapskates.
I guess God really dropped the ball on that vision He sent them telling them to stay open.
The Governor of Georgia has issued an executive order overriding local Covid 19 rules and ordering the beaches to be reopened.

Is he vying for the title of stupidest, most venal man elected to office?
Dear heavens.
Gentle correction: He wasn’t elected. He cheated. (NBC) With help from the Russians.
The whole article is worth a read if you’re concerned about election integrity in 2020.
The beches will mostly be used by Black people, and Gov. Kemp doesn’t care if they get sick and die – he might even prefer it. It will keep them from voting. He did his best as Secretary of State to eliminate as many as possible from the voting list; that’s how he got ‘elected’ in the first place.
You just have to laugh some times. The new Fox News talking point is that the Democrats were downplaying the dangers of the coronavirus in the early days.
Pat Robertson: The coronavirus is caused by oral sex and lady chemicals.

(Yeah, I know it was from two weeks ago.)
No Pat, just 'cause you were a major disappointment to your wife doesn’t mean everyone was.
CMC fnord!
Were they asked “Which Democrats?” I mean, are they talking Democrats like Donald Motherfucking Trump?
It’s widely known in sciencey circles that COVID-19 originated in women’s wild untamed vaginas before making the jump to humans.
Momma always warned you about wild women and their untamed vaginas with their lady chemicals. Now you know exactly why. Was it worth it? I hate to say I told you so, but…
Just top stupid. He has a lot of work to do.
Are you implying that other guys have been going down on Pat Robertson’s wife???
Oral Roberts, most likely.
