PILOT SPIN

Exactly. In fact here’s one of the nice dormitories.

That is most likely where we are going if the Far Left Radicals, whom are now the mainstream Democrat Party, win the Presidency and Congress. 

aw, we can come up with some that are more clueless.

 - the fish that shall not be named

 - the sim troll on usenet

 - John splats Tarver
 
 - the long island looney bird

or are you not old enough to know those?

No, I'm not.  I'm one of the younger guys at the airport which resembles the Home.   

This pearl of wisdom was posted over on PoA:

Chuck is one of the biggest, leftist tools over there.  What a little d bag.

 Covid 19 has given the progressive left a new chapter, and a new set of tools.   We've opened Pandora's Box.

 The flu will now take center stage.  The fear mongering will explode now, and the flu will be the next chapter in "emergency health orders".

 Expect more social distancing, mask orders, lock downs, etc.   Anything and everything will now be an excuse for new "emergency orders", aka suspension of rights.

That's why we aren't hearing as much about Man Made Climate Change although they will blame it when they can like on the Wildfires.  Where's little 17 year old Greta been?  These "health crisis" propaganda is an immediate way to install oppressive tyranny and Marxism. 

The POTUS has acknowledged that he downplayed the scope of what he was briefed about COVID19, treating all of us like emotional children.

Suppose it is Bio-Terrorism, then I’d think assigning it as a National Security issue and marking the information CLASSIFIED might be appropriate. In other cases and because of the scope, is it no longer in the realm of non-releasable and should be declassified?

Just spiff-balling here.

Why create panic?  It is up to our leaders to be PRAGMATIC.  Look at what the Democrats and Media, whom are one in the same, have done.  People are in a panic over a big nothing. 

Maybe it’s sexist. A waitress’s boobs?

Important for larger tips.  This thread is worthless without pictures. 

The only flaw in your logic is if those high bar journals suffer from some kind of bias. Scientists aren’t supposed to allow bias but they’re only human. Would not be the first time the top experts in a scientific field couldn’t break out of a paradigm or a prejudice. Somebody has to decide which papers to publish out of all the submissions. And now with academics and researchers being around 90% liberal, and today’s atmosphere of extreme hatred for the current administration as well as anti-capitalism and pro-leftism sentiment infesting our higher institutions, I’m wary of trusting the objectivity of these experts you’re talking about, while agreeing with you that strict scientific protocol in search for truth should be being followed.

In addition to almost all academics having a far left bias, the organizations and people that fund them have a far left bias and want certain results.  Therefore you get slanted "studies" and outcomes.  Even if you use accurate data, it is your assumptions like escalation rates, and other variables they use to skew the outcomes.  As an engineer you know this.  There other trick is to fudge the data, and that is easily done as well.  You also know this. 

You get way you pay for and the Left is great at paying academics to give them what they want.  If they want to get and keep funding they will give them Leftist results.  My other problem is they are so hypocritical and indoctrinated they won't admit it, because they think it is the right thing to do and the ends justify the means.  Right Mikey?   

Me too.

How do you think it was handled irresponsibily?  I think it was a huge over reaction that killed a robust economy, hurt people and gave government way too much power.
