Scottie’s world today

Catch up note.  I have been sick since Sunday.   I thought it was from entertaining on Saturday and staying up far too late.   But it is far more than that.   Ron had not felt well for more than a week.  His symptoms were not as severe as mine are but they were mostly the same.   He had gotten over it so we did not worry.  I was not feeling well for a few days after Sunday but Wednesday was bad and yesterday was really bad and today is like yesterday.    Head full, slight headache, hot sweats, cold periods, fever, extreme nausea, vertigo, really tired, intermittent running nose that we thought that was allergies.    Yes we both now think I have Omicron or some version of Covid and that he did also.   Wednesday and yesterday spent most of the day in bed.  This morning got up early thinking I could do some news stories I had missed, but this is not working.  I am going to get as much done before I am forced back to bed.  The thing is in Florida it is really hard to get a Covid test and before I would get any result I would be over it.   So I will just quarantine at home just in case.  **  Took all day with many rest periods, I am now going back to bed.  I will try to get to comments tomorrow. **  Scottie

Misleading right wing media cartoons / memes

The old white guy cartoonist pretended in the article that went with this cartoon that Biden should do this to protect black people and to increase the wages of black people.   Right.   Immigration has fallen for the last decade and it has not increased the wages of black people.  The real issue is that the brown people coming here do have more children right now than the white people already here.   So again the idea of a white majority or white ethnostate is what drives  these racist on immigration at the southern border.   Scottie

Wright and one other right wing media cartoonist keep trying to push Hillary into the limelight, to force the idea of Hillary running again to rile up their base.   They know that for 30 years the right wing media villainize Hillary and the right wing base is in a constant rage about her while the independents are sure she must have done something wrong even though she has never been found guilty of any Republican charge.  Hillary has not even suggested she is running nor that she thinks Joe should be replace.   Scottie

I think this must be a regional thing.   Yes we have a few things that are short like cat food.  But mostly it is just one brand name missing with plenty of that item by by a different supplier.  Our problem is the costs of stuff.   The price of meat is out of this world along with milk which is $5.48 a gallon here.   There are other things Ron comes home just all upset over the price of, but we are not yet scrounging for food as Tony Perkins claims due to Biden. 

Bullshit!   What about the money for the defense department?  Tax cuts for the wealthy never get cost checked.   But anything helping the people or taking care of the decaying nation needs is called tax and spend liberalism.   The people are not buying the misleading talking point anymore.  Scottie

While Biden was not articulate in how he put it, he was right.  We know Putin has special operations people in Ukraine.  He has troops out of uniform helping the separatist.  Biden did not want to get in to a war over those handfuls of Russian troops.   However he has made it clear that if Putin tries to take any more of Ukrainian territory they will pay a huge price in retaliation.  Scottie
