I'm going out to my shop to do some work.  You can have a conversation with yourself tonight.  Have at it.

I didn't actually see a plan in the Hill article or the NYT op-ed.  Just some political platitudes.  We have been talking about contact tracing and a staged reopening of business here on the A-Mart for at least two weeks.

Yours is the ultimate hypocrisy.

Gee, that's gotta' be a shock, since your Knee-jerk reaction is to jump in and try to defend these leftist morons, and hypocrites, LIKE ROD.

He only made an Entire thread about it.

I called him on it, I don't recall you making any commentary about it at the time, and nice way to dodge my questions by truncating them as usual, so I'll ask again:

When did you EVER call out Barack Obama for his rampant abuses of power, being shot down by the Supreme Court several times, 9-0 for his GRAND EDICTS?

Did you ever?  I don't recall it.

And here's where I show you what you missed. this posting, big bold letters: Trump Still Refuses to Issue NATIONAL STAY AT HOME ORDER:

Rod initiated that post, so Yes, He BE that IG'NANT.

I beat you to the punch, when I called him out and told him "the Pres. doesn't have that power".  

You're a little late to the party.  

I, Greg, and Mel have already done the work for you.

Here's our back and forth.

You stated he has the power under the  Public Health Service Act: 

Rod said: 

Do you think the Republican governors who have thus far refused to act will push it to the supreme court? Trump ought to issue the order and those who refuse can take the heat for the infections that follow...

I responded:

Where in the Constitution does it say that any President can order the closing of the Country?  Apparently you didn't bother to read my response to you. 

What power does the President have to issue an order like you stated in your first posting?  Do you even UNDERSTAND how a Republic works?? 

Do you think Governors work for the President?  Here, try it, you might like it:

READ it.  LEARN it.  LIVE it.

Rod came back w/ this:

The authority for interstate quarantine under the Public Health Service Act comes from that period, Price says. "Congress debated what to do about this, and they decided the federal government should have interstate quarantine authority," she says. The latter occurred from an outbreak of yellow fever at the time. Trump ought issue the order under the aforementioned act. I doubt the morons who call themselves governors in the states that have thus far refused to issue stay at home orders would oppose it..


You're free to parse words all you want.  

My point was that you berate him for NOT shutting down the gov't, then you call Him a Dictator/Authoritarian IF he opened it up.  

As usual talking out of both sides of your ass..

Apparently you fail to grasp my point.

And that wasn't even the point of my posting to you. 

The point was your hypocrisy and talking out of both sides of your ass.  

Your response STILL does not change the fact that you call him a jackass for NOT shutting the gov't down, then you immediately say he's a tyrant if he gives an order TO open it up.

My God you are a buffoon.  Are you SURE you aren't related to Joe Biden??
