Bogeyman

Levi the great spelled it boogyman.

The Bogeyman (/ˈbʊɡimæn, ˈboʊɡi-/;[1] also spelled boogeyman, bogyman, bogieman, boogie monster or boogie man)

None of which did Levi use. Normally I do not care as I make spelling mistakes as well, but Levi is a regular Einstein.

I feel real good if that is all you got. Pretty common on this board for posters who cannot make a credible argument to resort to pointing out occasional spelling mistakes. It is especially funny he points out a word that by his own admission clearly has a veritable plethora of spellings for that particular word. Such are the efforts of a lame mind at working on the personal level. It's pretty easy to see he is insecure about contributing actual knowledge based on facts and has to resort to such lowbrow means of discussion. Kind of sad actually.

 

[bigblueinsanity]

He was publicly dismissive letting it spread for 2 months while South Korea, Taiwan , and Singapore ramped up testing with clear communication and essentially stopped it. If he wasn't working on better information privately, I don't understand how Trumps handling will be a positive.

Testing doesn't stop anything.

 

[Sawnee Cat]

Yep fat can be a choice. Just like you can choose to listen to educated, trained, and experienced experts about a threat to the public health, or you can side with a extremely fat orange monkey who fired the experts.

We know, your hate is strong and is illustrated in each and every post you make. Hate, hate, hate.

These "experts" who served Obama allowed 60,000,000 Americans to catch the Swine Flu and almost 14,000 died. Why would you want them on the coronavirus team? Firing them was the best thing yet. ]

 

[Levibooty]

And during this time period your side of the aisle was engaged in an "Impeachment Hoax" and that is all we heard about on the news for 24/7. Meanwhile you have no idea what was going on in the other government agencies because Fox News, MSNBC and CNN were not covering anything but the impeachment.

Trump shut down travel to China and was assembling a team to fight this. His team had to redesign our treatment protocol and now thanks to his leadership we have the best plan of any nation on earth to defeat this. If Obama had provided leadership the Swine flu would not have been so destructive with over 60,000,000 Americans infected and nearly 14,000 deaths. Remember? Did you once say Obama's leadership was not positive?

Nothing, short of the death of Trump, will ever be positive in the minds of people who think like you.

Oh you mean the impeachment the GOP senate was too scared to have a single witness testify? Yeah not a real shiny example for cowards to use when they are so scared of the truth they won't even listen to what people involved had to say.

This is so easy when there is just one ignorant post after another. Trump's own people are sounding the alarm! You don't want to face the truth because that has been posted here repeatedly.

 

[DSmith21]

McConnell and his old ass Senate buddies went home Thursday doing nothing to help Americans. Pelosi worked her ass off all week with that fugly Mnuchin and got everything the Dems proposed for relief. So you can now thank her for paid leave, free tests, expanded unemployment insurance, and that stupid payroll tax idea being squashed. Trump of course had to endorse it or look like a weak fool. He better have that virus, its his only excuse for getting his ass handed to him so much the last few weeks. and hacking up a lung Everytime he speaks while sorting a line.

You are wrong about the Senate. Also the Trump administration agreed with the package. So you can thank Trump for what's in it too. They didn't just cave to senile Nancy.

I wonder who this "we" is. I assume it's all the deplorable's that are passing around false information!! LOL Yeah deplorable's LOL

Fox News? Really the propaganda site? Weak Lame and even weaker

 

[AustinTXCat]

I distinctly remember Trump saying Mexico was going to pay for that wall. I knew that was a lie when he said it. How stupid you have to be to have believe such a ridiculous lie!

Lol my aisle... I like Trump, you all are legit sunshine pumpers to think closing the US for a month is good for Trump.

 

[truebluewildcat]

I would agree with that to some degree.

But short of some radical eugenics, how does society determine who gets to procreate and who doesn't?

That's the crux of it all, from wars to contagions...too many people.

Nature does a pretty good job of regulating most other species with disease and predators. Our species evolved to fight off both. When an outbreak occurs we either cure it, or learn how to mitigate, manage, and live with it. When a Hitler, war lord, radical zealot and ideology of some kind starts to kill off too many people, we take it out.

So short of letting the next aids, ebola, corona, h1n1, etc or Tyrant/terrorist/war lord do their thing...what does a society concerned about a god/greater good and nature do?

God/Religion/morals say don't kill, help those in need, take in, provide for, and save everyone you can.

Nature/God says, let me do what I do and thin out the herd.

Thus we're stuck between a rock in a hard place. If your religious/god oriented in the societal construct, you fight bad guys, cure diseases, save people, help one another, etc.

If you're nature, resource, environmentally inclined...well you let wolves, lack of resources, diseases, etc...do what they do.

Levi i find you to be a funny character. You have some type of psychosis that seems to make you think that a politician is responsible for people getting sick. Talk about sad.

And you support a man for president that likely has early onset of dementia and/or Alzheimer's.

 

[the nail at the foul line]

You know...

 

[Gassy_Knowls]

look at this fool. The House called its witnesses and wouldn’t even let House GOP cross examine. You have shit for brains.

Senate didn’t need to hear from anymore witnesses. Literally the dumbest.

 

[Levibooty]

Not wishing any harm to anyone but still: Is there anything that would be more poetic than a Chinese flu with a Mexican name taking out this president?

I would call you what you are but John Blue would ban me. I would like for you to say that in front of my face though.

 

[FusterCluck]

Oh shit. We broke him.

 

[Gassy_Knowls]

Kinda sounds like wishing harm under the guise of “poetic”. An artistic way of wishing harm.

 

[anon_l8pbkn96tg3j6]

All the cancellations were prior to the rebound. Last night huge crowds everywhere. People are starting to see through the fog.

Sorry doomsdayer

The big scary number of infected is going to keep going up when we test and more shit is going to get delayed / cancelled. Yep, no additional effects after the Derby gets cancelled and people don't leave their house for a month. Nobody is going to lose their job and be unable to pay their cell phone loan, car loan, mortgage. The 20% drop from all time highs priced it all in, DOW $40K, buy buy buy.

The virus is more likely to attack liberals who live in urban centers than rural people.

Yep.

Levi threatened harm to the President.

Meanwhile:
“Please, please guys. Here in northern Italy we made one big mistake. Everybody kept saying: ‘It’s just flu’ and now our intensive care units are collapsing,” 23-year-old Bianca, from Lombardy, tweeted.

“Everybody kept going outside like nothing happened and now our grandparents and parents are dying.

“Coronavirus is not flu.”

 

[Levibooty]

“The war has literally exploded and battles are uninterrupted day and night,” he said.

“The need for beds has arrived in all its drama. One after the other the departments that had been emptied fill up at an impressive pace.”

He said the virus must not be likened to the flu.

“Explain to me which flu virus causes such a rapid drama. And while there are still people who boast of not being afraid by ignoring directions, protesting because their normal routine is ‘temporarily’ put in crisis, the epidemiological disaster is taking place,” he said.

Thats a strawman. Individuals will see it's false panic. Companies are going to keep doing what's best for them.

Two different issues

And as testing puts numbers through the roof and social media posts about how "I had it and it was nothing" also go through the roof - people will know for sure this was a massive exercise in panic

 

[Levibooty]

After reading what the people in Italy are saying, you know the people who started dealing with this pandemic before us, I've decided the Trumpsters who post here are not to be trusted.

What kind of healthcare system does italy have?

As a country, would you say they are pretty loosey-goosey with the flow of people into it's borders or concerned about national security and it's citizens first?

Are they part of the European Union? How's that working or not working out for them?

 

[Bill Derington]

I get that, but while he was publicly downplaying the seriousness of the situation, we got to a point where we canceled a month of the US. It takes an insane amount of sunshine pumping to see that as "handling it well".

It would be a completely different thing if he publicly downplayed it and we were South Korea right now claiming victory.

A month cancellation isn't due to inaction, it's due to hysteria, that's just the honest to god truth. Trump banned travel from China before any other Country, roughly 3 weeks after the disease had even been identified.

The only way we could've prevented this from happening was preventing it from getting here, and that's next to impossible in this day and age.

Judging by current conditions here and lagging results there I'd say about the same as ours. But as far as overall healthcare rankings Italy is #2 and we are #37 according to this ranking: https://worldpopulationreview.com/countries/best-healthcare-in-the-world/

 

[anon_l8pbkn96tg3j6]

With the Dow up 2000, it's a sign people know this won't last long or have much additional impact.

Thats a strawman. Individuals will see it's false panic. Companies are going to keep doing what's best for them.

What did you mean by "additional impact"? I still think the virus is dumb, but the big scary number is going to cause more cancellations (additional impact). I also don't think the market has priced in the effects of people losing pay and missing bills from the cancellations (additional impact). I went out to eat every meal since the Rudy Gobert (ultimate fear porn) event, normally busy places are sparse. Folks who and rely on tips are just going to be fine with 25% of their normal take this month?

Italy's healthcare is better than ours you say right after going on a post spree about how bad things are over there...

Italy..."Come here, we're better than America...especially in health care"

Okay...sure...

So Trump is hysterical, the NBA is hysterical, the NCAA is hysterical, the SEC is hysterical, our military is hysterical, our doctors are hysterical, Italy is hysterical, etc..etc..etc..

But you're calm, collected, and knowledgeable. Damn near divine I guess. Who knew?

Got it.

LMAOAY

This is stupid. What makes thing bad, is stupid people saying things like, "This is all a hoax" or "This is just politics" It's stupid to not recognize that Italy was hit with this before us. It is stupid to ignore what has happened to Italy and not take measures so that we are better prepared for it. It was stupid to fired the very people we need to protect us from this virus. I haven't seen anything about Italy getting rid of their experts! That's what is stupid.

 

[vhcat70]

McConnell and his old ass Senate buddies went home Thursday doing nothing to help Americans. Pelosi worked her ass off all week with that fugly Mnuchin and got everything the Dems proposed for relief.

House hasn't passed anything, DA. Net, nothing Senate can do yet. Would have gone much faster had Dims not tried to pull fast one for allowing government paid abortions. Of course none of this fits your story line.

 

[vhcat70]

I hope we never meet, you lowlife cocksucker.

You don't have to be jealous of her. I know it sucks hearing of a woman far more educated and accomplished than you ever were and knowing you'll never know the physical presence of a quality woman like that.

Just think. I get to **** her while you jack off to the CDC homepage.

GFY, old man.

LOL. I'm waiting for her published paper on the problem with Al adjuvants so I can compare to CDC position. Thanks.

What is stupid is red tape that bogs down the government and private sector from doing their jobs.

What is stupid is saying "oh, don't close down borders that's fear mongering and racist...."

What is stupid is exporting a large portion of all our industries abroad and singing about how great globalism is...no...globalism is not "we are the world kumbaya" globalism is somebody sneezes in Wuhan and the world gets sick and shuts down.

 

[vhcat70]

The same CDC the whole country is blaming for being unprepared for this current virus?

Again, you can suck all the CDC cock you'd like, it seems to suit you, and that's b/c you lack the intelligence and education to do your own work. No shame in being a pleb ****wit. Just don't project it onto others who have surpassed you long ago...

What work have you done on the subject? Show us. At least CDC sticks their neck out.

 

[vhcat70]

Testing doesn't stop anything.

if it's a helpful precursor to separating the infected, it does.
