    And a year ago the left scoffed at it :) Now they can't get enough of what he helped push through :)

    But your comment was Biden knows better. Science knows better. Stop squirming.

    Science is not proposing this mandate. You just went into a full circle with this ridiculous argument.

    It is a yawn. Trump promoted vaccination...until he lost. Real transparent.

    You said "never" ... dreamers come to mind I think he threatened them ...also he did that to members of his own administration like: James Comey, Rex Tillerson, Andrew McCabe John Bolton, John Kelly and others that he bad mouthed and fired. Then there were election officials in Georgia and Pennsylvania, and threats to athletes I think i remember him calling for their dismissal

    Uh no. My argument hasn't changed a bit. That you keep dancing around may give that illusion.

    Is Biden a dictator?

    No he is an old man whose job is way over his head.

    You seem lost. I'm not arguing the science behind the vaccine, but rather a mandate of it by the federal government.

    I am not sure about any of that and I don’t know if whatever Biden is doing will work or not. I just deal with reality as it pertains to me. I try to stay away from strangers and crowds unless I really want to go to a crowded place (I am going to Chicago to see the Dead and Company on Friday and Saturday) now I got a vaccine card so if that’s a issue, solved. Otherwise I only wear a mask in places that require one for entry and take it off as soon as I get seated or out. In restaurants you might need one to enter, then drink and eat for hours, the put it on to walk out then pocket it again. I do not know whether or not it does any good but I respect the right of the business which requires it and it does not bother me that much. As far as the job of the government, I have always thought they are overstepping their bounds. I have ignored most of the crap they dictate all my life and have figured out how to get away with doing whatever I want a long time ago. However it is far from being just the Democrats who are always telling us what we can and cannot do. It makes me sick when Highway Partolmen and street cops can dig through your car and look up your ass for drugs too. This kind of crap is most common in deep red states like Texas, Florida, Alabama, Idaho, Nebraska, Kansas and Mississippi. The trick is to figure out where to go and how not to get caught doing whatever you want as long as you are not stealing from or assaulting people. I am 67 years old and have been doing as I please, in other words living free since I was 15....

    Yes Mueller completely abused his power - perverted the principles of justice - with intent.

    #72. You:

    You basically just said the president must force people into vaccination because he knows what is best for them.

    I'm neither lost nor dancing a jig. Again, science knows what's best.

    For the last time, we are NOT discussing science, we're discussing the forced mandate by Biden. Please read it twice if you need, but this is ridiculous.

    I think his point is that Biden is making his decision on vaccine mandates based on science.

    Kind of. She said I think Biden knows what's best for us. I replied that science knows best, not Biden. Real simple exchange. Don't know what's gotten under her skin.

    No court is going to hold Bidens mandate going directly against the constitution. No president has such power.

    Then he should get educated on the people that have already had the virus with much stronger immune to the virus than the vaccinated

    Good for you. I think everyone should have the right to make what ever decision they think is good for them.

    The sooner everyone realizes that you are not going to eradicate this virus, the better off we will all be. Its here to stay and at some point everyone on the planet will have it. Just like the flu and every other SARS virus we have dealt with. This one had a 99% survival rate. Always did, always will.

    So says you, an anonymous internet poster. Others see it differently. If the court strikes it down, so be it. I don’t really care one way or the other. It may very well have a 99% survival rate but evidently many patients in red states like Alabama can’t even get an ICU bed because they are all filled with unvaccinated Covid patients now. So somethings sure going on there. My ex wife is an oncology nurse at Tarzana Medical Center here in LA and says her hospital is also overwhelmed with unvaccinated Covid patients and when one of her patients got very sick and needed critical care, she had to wait for hours and ended up dying which broke my ex’s heart. Maybe Biden is right in trying to get these people to get vaccinated.

    no democrat ever has claimed to be "the decider" or that "article 2 means i can do anything i want."

    republicans always consider our presidents to be "weak," and we like it that way.

    checks and balances. the founders really outdid themselves with these constitutional safeguards. checks and balances sounded wonderful in civics class, then we learned about political parties.......

    No doubt. More than once he has said himself that a particular thing wasn't Constitutional and then went right ahead and did it anyway.
