When you want to punch a wall

I'm starting this thread for any thing in the news that makes me want to punch a wall. Instead of starting a thread for reach individual topic, I'll just post it here. It can be about any debate topic.

Mitch McConnel said of Biden:

“The president’s rant yesterday was incoherent, incorrect and beneath his office".

Yeah. *this* guy. Not another profoundly inept president you supported.

While adults can eat at indoor restaurants maskless everywhere in the US, children are being forced to eat/sit outside in freezing temperatures to prevent them from catching what generally amounts to a cold for them.

If true, that's supremely idiotic.

I don't get why children can't simply remove masks once their at their seats, like at restaurants.

Good thread. Each side sees hypocrisy on the other, that is what keeps it interesting. So, here is one from our side.
A restaurant, called the red hen restaurant, refused to serve sarah sanders. (huckabee's daughter, a Repub).
Do you think the owners of the restaurant would support the right of a bakery to refuse to bake a wedding cake for a gay marriage?

@vivify
At this rate, the governments will soon mandate that all food be processed in a blender and sucked through a government-approved mask.

And most people will comply without question.

Well, about 20% of the entire US population has covid now, mostly Omicron or Delta so there isn't much anyone can do except isolate, wear masks and get the jabs.

Schools are, right now, the main hubs for spreading Corona.

Vaccinate your sprogs and mask them up, at the very least. But if even slightly possible, switch to remote learning.

It's not the working adults who are spreading Corona right now. It's the playing children.
