    Also interesting was that he condemned the GOP's slide toward authoritarianism.

    On the day after Biden threatened people's livelihoods if they don't take the shot. Jesus, he is blinded.

      So, are the boosters mandatory as well? Sure was prescient of them to put 4 lines on the card, though we’ll likely need more spaces by this time next year. I’m just glad that we have such a foolproof method of identification for such an important issue.

      By the way, as long as we’re on the subject of employers enforcing vaccinations, should I go ahead and gather my employees other vaccine information? Public Health, you know. Also, it really is foolish to not require flu vaccinations. They aren’t perfect, but if enforced, they will prevent some unnecessary deaths.

        Silly man. It's all going into the national database and you'll have proof of vaccination on your cell phone.

          So you think the graphic designer in charge of putting together the vaccination cards had secret knowledge that boosters were going to become mandatory.

          I’m just glad that we have such a foolproof method of identification for such an important issue.

          And now you're saying that well, the graphic designer had insider information on the behind-closed-doors booster requirement regime, but what you actually find odd is the fact that the card doesn't have magnetic strips and watermarks.

          ...have you checked for magnetic strips? If they knew about the boosters, what else did they know, and when did they know it?

          Please love yourself.

              Biden is literally taunting those that claim overreach. Have at it.

              "Have at it," Biden said. "Look, I am so disappointed that particularly some of the Republican governors have been so cavalier with the health of these kids — so cavalier for the health of their communities."
              He continued: "We're playing for real here. This isn't a game. And I don't know of any scientist out there in this field that doesn't think it makes us considerable sense to do the six things I've suggested."

                Whether or not the legality of Biden’s mandate will override the current March to mandates and limiting movement of non vaxxed. Measured by amount of media, legal challenges causing injunctions and how other institutions follow the lead. Indirect measurement, Biden’s approval rating shift as expressed in 538.

                  Is what Biden proposes an abuse of power? Was the Ukraine phone call an abuse of power?

                  For me there is a public health crisis. It used to be that everyone fell in line.

                  It stopped being a public health crisis about an hour after Mr. Fauci said masks were not needed.

                  Since then it has been all about politics.

                  There is a little health crisis mixed in there, but not for broadcast consumption.

                    Good luck winning a majority otherwise, but yes a significant minority (I’m guessing 35%) will feel otherwise.

                      Significant Minority? 80,000,000 unvaccinated adults. Another 25,000,000 that avoided the vaccine until the last month. Where do you think they fall into the debate? Then, how many people that are like me, Copper, Horace, Jolly? People that gladly chose to be vaccinated but are deadset against having people strong armed into it? How many people like George and Mik, that aren’t as deadset against it as I am, but still find it to be overreach and likely illegal?

                      You may be wrong about the minority opinion.

                        75% of adults have received at least one dose. So it’s 52m not 80. So my 35% accounts for an additional that have at least one does and may be anti mask.

                          The question is about a vaccine mandate for others.

                          I got the vaccine for me as soon as I could.

                          I don't think the government should force it on anyone.

                          I think a lot of other vaccinated Americans still like the idea of freedom to make your own choices.

                            And one thing that makes me positive that the vaccine is now all about politics is that natural immunity is still largely ignored.

                            Because I had covid, I have natural immunity. Recent studies suggest that may be more effective protection than the vaccines. But that is completely ignored by those pushing a vaccine mandate.

                            I just noticed the term 'natural immunity' now has several meanings. There is the 'natural immunity' I have and now there seems to be a tin-foil-hat version of 'natural immunity' that comes from some mystical place. Was this invented to discredit the original 'natural immunity'?

                              https://jonathanturley.org/2021/09/10/admission-against-interest-white-house-chief-of-staff/

                              In the law, it is called an admission against interest or an out-of-court statement by a party that, when uttered, is against the party’s pecuniary, proprietary, or penal interests. In politics, it is called just dumb. White House chief of staff Ronald Klain offered a doozy this week when he admitted that the announced use of the authority of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) for a vaccine mandate was a mere “work around” of the constitutional limit imposed on the federal government. The problem is that the thing being “worked around” is the Constitution. Courts will now be asked to ignore the admission and uphold a self-admitted evasion of constitutional protections.

                              Notably, before inauguration, Klain publicly assured the public that Biden would that, on “his first day in office, I will issue a nationwide masking mandate, requiring that people wear masks where the federal authority extends and then urging governors and other local officials to impose mask mandates in their states.” That statement was then walked back due to the lack of legal authority to issue such a mandate.

                              Klain retweeted MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle, who posted, “OSHA doing this vaxx mandate as an emergency workplace safety rule is the ultimate work-around for the Federal govt to require vaccinations.”

                              The “work around” was needed because, as some of us have previously during both the Trump and Biden Administration, the federal government does not have clear authority to impose public health mandates. Authority for such mandates has traditionally been recognized within state authority.

                              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                                Oh, and remember, this man, who, while candidate for the presidency, said that he doubted he had the authority to establish a mask mandate.

                                Again, I'm not disputing that it's a good idea, I'm just wearing my pretend lawyer hat.

                                  I’ll dispute it being a good idea. It’s the worst idea ever, IMO. I don’t mean masking, and I don’t mean vaccinating… Vaccinating is a fucking great idea and masking doesn’t hurt… Mandating it? Worst idea ever.

                                        Significant Minority? 80,000,000 unvaccinated adults. Another 25,000,000 that avoided the vaccine until the last month. Where do you think they fall into the debate? Then, how many people that are like me, Copper, Horace, Jolly? People that gladly chose to be vaccinated but are deadset against having people strong armed into it? How many people like George and Mik, that aren’t as deadset against it as I am, but still find it to be overreach and likely illegal?

                                        You may be wrong about the minority opinion.
