From Mark Bear at MadMikesAmerica:
Let us dispel of the myth that once the “curve is flattened” that we will experience less loss of life than had the curve not been flattened, okay?
For Republicans to argue they have the higher moral ground these days is literally preposterous. They don’t! And no matter what amount of mental acrobatics they perform will assist in making their claim true. In fact, when you have a Lt. Governor of Texas arguing how many people his age “would gladly die for the economy to protect our future,” and you have protesters so callously arguing how “they need to get a freaking haircut, or go to the salon, or how they ought to be able to live free,” while acknowledging how “others have compromised systems” laying blame at those people’s feet, demonstrates not only a lack of concern, compassion, empathy, but also humanity. And if you lack humanity, you cannot proclaim that you occupy the higher moral ground and are pro-life; now, can you?
