Looking at some of these replies, and the historical failures of Tucson and Pima County all come into focus.
Re: “Danehy”
Tom.......You remind me of a petulant child who hasn't gotten their way.
Let's agree on one thing...well maybe three. COVID-19 most likely resulted on poor practices in a Chinese lab. It' got out. The Chinese lied about the the severity and the World Health Organization participated in that lie. The latter caught up some of the medical scientists in this country such as Dr. Fauci et al. Those three points are almost undeniable.
Trump's ban in allowing Chinese to enter the US has proven (according to the scientific community) to have saved lives. He was called a racist and Xenophobic by Democrats for that ban. His management since that time has received high marks from many Governors throughout the US, to include California.
We realized there was a problem when a gaggle of folks in a Washington nursing home got sick and died. In the meantime Pelosi is telling folks to disregard and go to Chinatown. NYC Mayor DiBlasio is telling folks to sing and dance in their favorite pubs. The deaths in New York and New Jersey account for more that half of all the deaths in the US.
The media seizes on the 'opportunity' and goes berserk and this includes the AZ Star.
According to March 28, 2020 statistics, COVID-19 had infected 0.04% of the total population of the US. To put that into perspective, Switzerland reported 0.17%, Spain 0..16%, Italy, 0.15% and Germany was
0.07%. Over 50% of the deaths in the US are in NYC and New Jersey. Those stats tell me we got on this problem early and effectively, sans NY/NJ.
In my opinion, the biggest mistake we have made is the vast economic shut down of the US.
COVID-19 is a serious issue and needs to be dealt with appropriately. But it has nothing to do with your underlying hate for our President. You have ragged on him since day one and COVID-19 is just your latest play toy. And we should agree on that also.
Re: “Danehy: The Pandemic and Sports”
One of your best. Unfortunately the anger in our society today would have been brought down on the NCAA like a ton of bricks if just one tiny little thing would have happened. So while, like you I wish they could have found a way....they couldn't take the risk.
Re: “Danehy: We have to win in November”
I have some empathy for you Tom. You have to chose between the lesser of two evils.
Re: “Danehy”
Christopher's opinion is spot on. But the rest of those on stage last evening, sans Klobuchar, all have socialist leanings. Democrats, by nature, are socialists.
Re: “Danehy”
It is obvious that Danehy had little fuel in his writer's tank when he regurgitated this week I suppose this newest heros are Shiff, Nadler and Pelosi otherwise known as the 2020 answer to the 3 stooges!!!
