From Tom Woods today:
If for some reason you've been trying to keep track of the craziest things said this year, well, I've got one that belongs at least in the top five.
MSNBC's Joe Scarborough was not happy with Congressman Jim Jordan (R-OH), who recently grilled Dr. Fauci and demanded specific answers as to when Americans could lead normal lives again.
Congressman Jordan described the various interventions as assaults on American liberties.
But according to Scarborough, this is all nonsense.
No liberties were taken away!
You think I must be joking. Woods, you say, surely you have misunderstood Joe Scarborough!
Here are his words:
"No personal liberties were taken away. The Supreme Court has reviewed the cases. The courts have reviewed cases. It's sheer idiocy playing for the lowest common denominator."
It almost takes your breath away, the sheer stupidity, does it not?
The Supreme Court has reviewed the cases?
So I can't tell if my liberties have been violated or not until the Supreme Court graciously informs me?
And what a surprise: a branch of government that tells us whether the government has violated our rights has decided that it hasn't! Well, then, that's all I need to hear!
Scarborough went on: "Jim Jordan peddles the suggestion that Anthony Fauci somehow is the problem instead of a coronavirus that's spread across America and killed 550,000 people."
Of course, like his fellow lizard people, Scarborough acts as if it's simply obvious that the so-called mitigation measures did any good. Yes, Joe, Fauci "somehow" is the problem, since the states whose policies he recommended did no better than states he castigated, and he has spent virtually the entirely of the past 13 months acting as if lockdowns and restrictions cause no damage worth noticing.
Oh, and speaking of which, why don't we check in with Texas, over two weeks since that Texas Rangers game that had everyone up in arms. Surely a "superspreader" event, right? (And for fun, let's put the California/Florida rivalry in there as well.)

I'm sure everyone who predicted the apocalypse in Texas will promptly apologize.
