about COVID 19

https://townhall.com/tipsheet/spencerbrown/2021/07/21/house-democrats-block-covid-origins-bill-n2592839


By a vote of 216 to 207 Tuesday evening, Democrats in the House of Representatives blocked consideration of a bill that would require the Director of National Intelligence to declassify information related to the origins of the Wuhan coronavirus pandemic, specifically information about any role the Wuhan Institute of Virology may have played in the pandemic's outbreak.




Fuck you Fauci

Probably just as well. The result would have been years of investigation, tons of documents, even more tons of money, a conveniently obfuscated and/or inconclusive determination that would be swept under the rug by the mainstream media.

The fact it was voted down, and who cast the votes says it all.

If they are not going to tell us about the UFO's I seriously doubt they are going to tell us about the virus. We were warned in this crop circle...

To quote our favorite lady, “at this point, what difference does it make?”

Of course they don’t want to admit it was man made in the lab and funding came, at least in part, from the US.

Nothing short of critical national defense should be classified from the general public.

Government exists at our consent, not the other way around.

That apparently is less than 50% of those who vote (legally).

Yup. Critical thinking. Not an important thing to many people.

Feelings over logic is the new normal

This gets me in trouble at the office as I interrupt people who start off by saying "I feel that...." when we are discussing engineering concepts, specifications or designs

I interrupt and say your "feelings don't matter ..." or "what do feelings have to do with..." the other one I can't stand is "correct me if I'm wrong...". If you doubt your answer before saying it, then it likely is wrong. Yes I'm that guy who has no time for self doubt and feelings.

NIH funding was used to perform "gain of function" research on the virus...

It generally doesn't pay to be intentionally obnoxious. On the other hand, physics don't have pheelings. There was a classic SF short story decades ago entitled, "The Cold Equations". If the numbers don't balance, neither will I no matter how body-positive I am.

I?m guilty of using correct me if I?m wrong when I am speaking about something that isn?t fully my place to speak for. People won?t speak up, but they love to correct others.

When people use it and they should be the ones speaking to that point it does sound quite dumb.

You rarely have to wonder if they are being two faced or bumping their gums about you behind the scenes. Then again, I haven't worked in a "normal" environment for the last 17'ish years.

That's fair. I'm sure I could imagine a situation that fits what you're describing just as easily as the way I interpreted what he said. I'd prefer an ass to a fraud any day.

Oh, I've already established that people shouldn't invite me to a meeting or conversation unless they want to hear blunt honesty. That's a little different IMO from poking them in the eye. My associates still laugh about one particular meeting when they were sure I was going to get thrown out of the conference room by the 4-star but I kept it professional and not only didn't get thrown out, he invited me to other office sessions to explain certain items (don't think he'd ever invite me for a drink or lunch though ...

I was asked to meet with a democratic state senator. I asked if they were sure knowing where I stand. They still wanted me to and I destroyed his ideas for greening certain materials as steps backwards from what we already had been doing for 20+ years. Steps backwards as in his ideas would have increased carbon emmisions. Same thing happened years ago when a Ritter aid proposed similar ideas. Must have stayed at the same holiday inn...

Then crushed his want to reduce carbon from some year and I told him we don't track such things and we are very close to limits of being the greenest you can be for the materials with a major breakthrough in a new material. And setting targets for a % reduction would setup failure.

I also asked with no answer how much of an impact his legislation would make. Since if CO was 2% (1 of 50) of US emmisions and US emmision or 25% of world emmisions and he wanted a 10% reduction that it only be a 0.05% in world emmisions. How much tax payer money was he willing to squander? Lol... no answer and the stink eye from the legislative liaison and my supervisor. I thought it was a reasonable question.

They also like me to talk with fhwa reps to demonstrate the utter stupidity of certain rules the local fed boy idiots push to prop up thier individual performance ratings.

[Eric P]

Oh, I did bring that Ritter aid to tears after shredding every idea she had since we already were doing well beyond what she suggested. She was going to be the only aid to fail to implement greening ideas that would be implemented.

[Irving]

That story makes me happy.
