The Morning Rant: Minimalist Edition
Supreme Leader Khamenei’s fabrications regarding the Wuhan Virus are dangerous and they put Iranians and people around the world at greater risk. Facts matter. Here are a few the Iranian regime would like to keep from the world: Fact: In February, Iran’s chief terror airline, Mahan Air, ran at least 55 flights between Tehran and China, further infecting the Iranian people. At least five foreign countries’ first cases of coronavirus were directly imported from Iran, putting millions more lives at risk. Fact: The Iranian regime ignored repeated warnings from its own health officials, and denied its first death from the coronavirus for at least nine days. The regime continues to lie to the Iranian people and the world about the number of cases and deaths, which are unfortunately far higher than the regime admits. Fact: As Iranian regime officials ask for more funds, it is important to note that since 2012, Iran has spent over $16 billion on terror abroad, and used sanctions relief from the JCPOA to fill up its proxies’ coffers. Regime officials stole over a billion Euros intended for medical supplies, and continue to hoard desperately needed masks, gloves, and other medical equipment for sale on the black market. Fact: U.S. sanctions do not target imports of food, medicine and medical equipment, or other humanitarian goods. Iranian documents show their health companies have been able to import testing kits without obstacle from U.S. sanctions since January. Fact: The United States has offered over $100 million in medical assistance to foreign countries, including to the Iranian people, and our scientists are working tirelessly to develop a vaccine. Khamenei rejected this offer because he works tirelessly to concoct conspiracy theories and prioritizes ideology over the Iranian people.It is the job of the secretary of state to communicate the foreign policy of the United States to its allies and enemies around the world. It is not in his purview to run a rogue operation with his personal foreign policy. That doesn't sound difficult, yet it has been a constant tussle for many presidents, and Michael Pompeo seems to understand that. What a pleasure! A robust geopolitical stance with aggressive and swift communication of America's needs and wants and opinions does not mean that we are thirsting for war. In fact, it will result in quite the opposite. Clarity in our intentions and desires means that there is no confusion in the halls of power around the world.

1995
GOP: "let's cut the rate of increase in spending"
Democrats/media: "ZOMG YOU RACIST SEXIST HOMOPHOBE BIGOTS, the answer is to spend"
2009
GOP: "let's not spend on stimulus"
Democrats/media: "ZOMG YOU RACIST SEXIST HOMOPHOBE BIGOTS, the answer is to spend"
2020
GOP: "let's spend!"
Democrats/media: "ZOMG YOU RACIST SEXIST HOMOPHOBE BIGOTS, the answer is to spend MORE"
So the "conservative" party has been co-opted; its plan to fix problems is just to print more money and spend it. And that's not good enough for the Democrats, who have technically WON-- it's no longer a question of spending OR cutting, of increasing or decreasing the government's role. It's a question of how much bigger we're going to make the government in response to EVERYTHING, ALL THE TIME. But even that's not good enough for them.

Son's girlfriend's boss's best friend has COVID-19. Her boss is getting tested, and my husband has sent son home until he's tested.
If son tests positive, he's exposed everyone in the company, my husband included. He's waiting to hear from the VA if he can get in today for the test.
Son's girlfriend lives and works in Beaufort, SC, and travels over to son's house in the Savannah area on the weekends. When her boss returned from Italy three weeks ago, I strongly suggested they remain apart for a couple of weeks.
Prayers for our son, his girlfriend, and all of us please.
Yeesh.

It's called "federalism," Ben. Someone who was helping drive policy and messaging for the executive branch of the Federal government ought to understand how devolution of powers and local control works. And Trump has been pretty consistent overall. Yes, lots of details change. We're moving from "unreliable data" to "some reliable data" to "a little bit of local data" into "lots of local data." As the quality of our knowledge improves, so will the consistency of our actions.
But it is not guaranteed, because ours is a system built on local controls. You should know that.

I ran out to the local Publix to pick up a few things, and of course the shelves were stripped bare of TP, paper towels, and Kleenex. One of the cashiers told me they're getting a shipment of paper goods later this afternoon, and to check back.
Husband is working from home, and though we have TP, with him here, we'll run low more quickly.

And it is also a major foreign policy victory. Trump delayed the outbreak here bigly by restricting travel from hot spots, and those without those restrictions (Europe) or who were much closer to the problem (Asia) found the thing that helps and we are able to take huge shortcuts based on their early exposure and our late exposure.
And neither the foreign policy victory nor the (hopeful) medical improvement will be declared as anything but the deranged failures of a xenophobic madman.

"The DIY Hack-a-Vent Innovation Challenge dares you to solve a serious problem at a critical time! We dare you to help design and build a Prototype Ventilator to support the Medical Response to COVID-19. We dare you to develop a low-cost, non-FDA approved, mechanical ventilation support system that can be rapidly produced at local levels with widely available resources."

Next? I am going to the gun safe and play with my 110 guns. I have so many pistols I need a separate safe for the ammo. Why do I need three 45's and six 9mm? What is a Walter PP Ultra? I don't know, but I have one and 1,000 rounds of ammo for it.

Jane Doe,
Keep in mind the floating petri dish Diamond Princess.
Over 3700 guests and crew.
712 confirmed cases (roughly 20% even GOT it).
10 deaths.
Also bear in mind, average age of passengers was close to 70... no real serious medical care... not a hair on fire scenario, I don't think.
YMMV

If NYC is bad enough to justify shutting down all of America, then it should be put in state receivership and sealed up, with National Guard making sure nobody enters/leaves until there's not a trace of WuFlu. Why hasn't that been done? Doesn't public health demand it?

He probably meant of known infections.
Keep in mind Italy, whatever their intentions, are using their triage process to clear out a lot of patients who were already dying of something (and often multiple somethings). So if you had stage 4 pancreatic cancer, and caught kung flu, you don't get a respirator and die, and they count it as a kung flu fatality.

Charisma (attractiveness. Not beauty/handsome but attractive to people
Friendly (make people feel you're interested in them even if you're not)
Clever (know who to suck up to and when and who to crush and when)
Without these basics you can get elected but only to the lower levels of government.
Note: honesty, truthfulness, patriotism, morals are not required (and many, many others). They actually may hinder.
Remember we (as a People) get the government we (as a People) deserve.
Unfortunately we still have a lot left over from the crypto commie mistake from on the lake and they are the ones who are doing most all the damage. But Trump can't fire them all at once or he'd have no government.
I'm of the opinion that the President is overloaded with too much to do from day one. We should have an elected Chief of Staff (names of nominees offered by the Presidential Nominee only) who would begin immediately the process of vetting and firing all those from a previous admin who cannot be trusted. And should then be his Chief of Staff for all open positions that now Trump has to approve (well the people he selects for that job)
Mistakes were made as Trump was not an insider. Not having been in DC for decades and knew all the assholes and bastards by name. He'd only heard about a few.
Plus I think he actually trusted Obama to some degree. He was taken in just like half the country.

Remember, before the liars flipped the data, the progs actually tested higher for "authoritarianism" than cons.
- - -
First, they always want more control, so the idea that Trump isn't going into tyrant mode confuses and scares them. See the hysterical reporters and mayors (de Blasio) DEMANDING Trump issue nationwide shelter in place.
Second, this is also their biggest political weapon, which their lizard brains instinctively know: IF Trump makes the big decisions then they can relentlessly attack him for making it wrong, too early, too late, not big enough, too extreme, etc.
Trump is respecting federalism, allowing each state and major city make the decisions that work best for them (because they are infinitely more familiar with how things work there), as well as allowing each city and state leader be held accountable for these decisions. His task force is providing advice and assistance to ensure their success.
It is exactly what I'd want him to do.

I seriously doubt it will work that way. Once ventilators are in a state, it will be all but impossible to get the governor to give them up. Same with Army Mobile Hospitals. When one of those units is set-up in a location, local political pressure to keep it there will be overpowering.

Jane, you bring up something I've been meaning to point out.
IF you are going to sanitize something like a shopping cart handle, your car steering wheel etc, you need to apply the wipe solution and then leave it alone until it dries, which is usually one to two minutes. All virucidal solutions are not instant death to viruses, it takes them some period of time(varying with the solution) to actually kill or render the virus inactive. I keep seeing news clips of people, often employees, wiping down an object like they are cleaning a window. All they are doing, and Dr. Birx said this the other day, is smearing and spreading the virus around.
I'm retired from health care and had more continuing education seminars and updates than I could count on disinfecting and sanitizing surfaces, myself, patients, and the proper use of PPE equipment. If you look at the instructions on Clorox wipes or Lysol solutions, they will say the same thing , the surface must remain wet for a period of time to actually sanitize.
Also, if you are using spray type of cleaners, disinfectants, do not spray and breathe it at the same time. Either wear a mask or spray and walk away for a minute or two. Once it dries, wipe with a wet cloth, etc.

It's a simplification of course, but blue areas tend to be population-dense and red areas tend to be less population-dense.
Contagion is worse with density, all other things being equal - more vectors, denser network. Any contagion will probably hit denser areas worse, and thus hit blue areas worse when taken as a generalization.

Then there was the Detente guys who said we had to get along with the USSR even while they ran rampant over our allies and other countries.
Then there came the Gorbachev Lovers and their endless Gorbasms on any thing that stain headed shit for brains came up with.
Then the became Greens cause that's what Gorbachev did after he lost the Soviet Union.
Then there was the Nation Builders and finally:
The Globalists who hate Trump because he's cut all the other nations off the American Teat and put the US back to work.
Wouldn't be surprised this virus and the reaction was cooked up by the CIA and the CCP to destroy Trump.
The destruction of the US is a side benefit. Note how the Dems have come out and said they are taking this opportunity to restructure the US forever in the mold of the Left's wish list. Because they know we ain't going to recover very fast due to the other countries also being in trouble.
Nothing like a Global disaster to make it easier for Global solutions and those who have put themselves in place to make them.
Notice that first up was the stoppage of access to firearms.
Next comes a pretext for troops to be brought in from outside to police the lockdowns. (btw lockdown is a PRISON term)

Ancient history, and very doable. The Western Development Museum in Swift Current, Saskatchewan has in its collection a home-made iron lung built by a farmer, whose daughter was stricken by polio. It was basically a wooden box with a rubber diaphragm cycled by a slowed-down washing machine mechanism.
https://preview.tinyurl.com/sxkkhds
Now, whether the iron-lung concept would work for WuFlu, I don't know. Polio caused chest paralysis, but the patients' lungs were still OK. WuFlu degrades the lungs themselves. Maybe an iron lung with added oxygen would help?

Rodney Dangerfield had never done a movie before, so he's out shooting scenes then afterward he's a wreck "I'm dying, I'm bombing, this is terrible, I suck at this!" wanting to walk off the set. The problem? Everyone had to keep quiet and not bust out laughing at his jokes, so he was getting no feedback.
He still was killing them with side jokes and improv, despite their attempts to stay professional and in character.

He should say: "Cuomo wants us to send all the equipment to New York now, in the hope that when the peak of the crisis is over there, he will ship the units to the next place. What happens if New York is still using most of the equipment when the virus is peaking in Los Angeles? Will Governor Cuomo go through the ICUs and pick which patients will be taken off the ventilators so that the equipment can be moved?
This is the typical democrat response. Don't think of the big picture, just focus on the next move on the checker board. As president, I have to think of what's best for the entire country. Governor Cuomo, calm down and we'll all get through this together."

The longstanding hatred between Bill Murray and Chevy Chase is well documented. (and makes me think more highly of Murray) They were kept apart on that set as much as possible.
And we've talked about the script before - the basic movie was really pretty dull, with a weak script about caddy's that no one cared about. And then they chose to hire Rodney Dangerfield and Bill Murray, and let both of them just adlib their way through the movie. (I love Murray's Dalai Lama story!) Those two were allowed to say anything they wanted, and that's what made the movie great. (plus a great supporting performance by Ted Knight). Chase is really just a big zero throughout.

Knight, by all accounts, was not happy during the filming, as he was a 'stick-to-the-script' man and hated it when Dangerfield would start riffing, as in the "on you, it looks good" hat scene.
Those scenes of Knight fuming at Dangerfield weren't all acting.

Makes me think of some of the actors in Airplane who were completely unready for the parts they were given. The Zuckers deliberately cast all these straight, manly, leading he-men with square jaws to play hilarious spoof roles. Some of them could not grok the concept or what was going on at all.
Its hard to understand now especially with how damned good he was at comedic acting, but until that movie Leslie Nielsen was a completely straight dramatic actor, the guy you had play the president or the doctor who had to tell the family the bad news. Very serious, very respectable.

Huh? Kallisto's calculation was correct.
Result: .0182 mortality rate.

Posted by: CharlieBrown'sDildo at March 24, 2020 12:03 PM (dLLD6)
The math is off, you divide the smaller number by the large number which gives you a decimal. Multiply that by 100 to get the percentage. That's an 18.2 percent death rate. As of today there are 63,927 cases and 6,077 deaths. The increase in identified cases causes the death rate to decrease, but that's still 9.5%.

I don't know. I'm sure MOST of them got the joke--especially Loyd Bridges. How else could he utter lines like "Looks like I picked the wrong week to stop sniffing glue...' And if Nielsen didn't get it while filming, he certainly got it after because he never played a straight role again....

New York has 10 times the number of cases of the rest of the states, including California. And so far other states aren't catching up. Everyone is adding cases at about the same rate.
We can make Ben Rhodes happy and have a single national response, wall off New York from the rest of the country.
Of the current 48,000 cases in the US, 23,000 of them are in New York. California has about 2,300.

I doubt Nielsen didn't get it. I saw talk shows afterwards and around Hollywood, he was actually known as a very funny guy.
Kind of like that to people behind the scenes, Zeppo was taken as the funniest Marx brother. He busted people up. The rumor is that the older, more established brothers sort of resented him for that and gave him very little on screen.

Those people have never been in an auto plant.
Nothing, and I do mean nothing can be accomplished by auto workers in a timely manner. This is because of one thing - union rules.
When you're setting up a new product or process, you need to be flexible. "Hey, get me a light over here!". OK, write up a work order for the electrician's union worker. Need a piece of 2 x 4 lumber to put under a machine you're positioning? Get another work order for the carpenter's union guy. Screwing that piece of coolant pipe in? Not without a pipefitter that has a union card. Move the machine a few inches to the left? That's what the millwrights do. Want a nut or bolt from the storeroom? Call transportation and put in a request.

I'm betting more young kids have been killed or permanently disabled by the school closings than would have ever died from the Chinese Lung AIDS.

Gotta be all those conservatives, like Rick Wilson said.
Or maybe it's the progs who couldn't self-quarantine?

Remember how we were told that conservatives were all going to be the ones who died because we won't take it seriously?
593 deaths so far, 188 of them in New York City.
2.4% of the population, 32% of the deaths.

Remember that scene in the 80s Tim Burton Batman where they couldn't use makeup? They aren't getting the usual work they used to from makeup artists, and often are doing it themselves. People have noted that the "babes" on Fox aren't looking as babealicious as they usually are because they aren't getting top-notch airbrushing done for their makeup.

Maybe not. 800 deaths of school-age children driving to school per year in the US.

I met a guy who worked trade shows promoting a product up north. He had to find a small monitor that would lean in order to face outwards from his laptop. Apparently if it had a stand you had to have whatever union workers come and remove it from your briefcase and set it up.

THAT'S why unions need to die.

Worked at EDS. I was told that office workers cannot plug in their mouses, or re-plug any peripherals. They cannot be seen putting their hands in back of the box where the cords are.
All of those are reportable incidents.

The Mullahs are old and probably need the spare body parts.
They're not selling these organs to Westerners - they're selling them to Saudis, and probably Iranians, too.

More seriously, her face is so frozen that the only way she can emote is to smile or to widen her eyes.
It is a weird an unsettling effect, especially when paired with her mouth movements to deal with her loose dentures.

Something isn't right in the data and its not useful until we get better, more accurate info.

and this will never be included in the stats

That doesn't make sense until you hear that their healthcare system doesn't work very well and passing deaths off as "emergency" puts the numbers in a different category.

Right, and I can see the argument "they died at the same time, during a health crisis, and the Wuhan Flu has made our hospitals unable to grant care that we would usually, so technically...

You sound like my uncles.
One of my father's brothers worked at Delco as a line engineer for years. Man, the shit he told me about, the way things worked. He was always getting in trouble for fixing things to keep the line running that was supposed to be done by union pipefitters, etc.
My mother's brother had a tool and die shop, and did tooling for all the Big 3 over the years.
Yeah, he didn't have much good to say about GM, although he bought a new Cadillac every year. He always thought they were all mad at each other and immensely disorganized.
He predicted they would go bankrupt someday back in the late 1980's.

Skip- I believe that there are a lot of demographic particulars that are being suppressed because it would be politically incorrect to provide such details, including the outbreak in New York. I have a cousin in NJ with kids in NYC and she gave me the impression that there is concentration in certain communities. Of course, HIPPA would be blamed for the lack of disclosure of that information.
Posted by: Moonbeam at March 24, 2020 12:45 PM (qe5CM)
Yeah, Seattle area as well. They're being very careful to suppress any demographic information beyond age.

I heard Cuomo say he needed all those ventilators. Where does he think they would come from? You would have to strip virtually every ventilator currently in the nation to get that number of them. He is gladly willing to f*ck-over the rest of the nation.

In as much as she is a geriatric boozer, she is certainly in the high-risk category. It would be karmic justice if she is afflicted with Chinese Bat Soup Fever.
