I've read that part - but are there any congress idiots rejecting a vaccine?

One that should turn a few people into a pretzel.

Nah. People read a headline, irrationally react and make a fool of themselves, then get the information that's easily available to everyone and go in hiding.

  "...go in hiding." ??  umm, no.  so many of the responses are not worth dignifying and certainly not worth the bump.

Vatican OKs Receiving COVID-19 Vaccines, Even If Research Involved Fetal Tissue

https://www.npr.org/sections/coronavirus-live-updates/2020/12/21/948806643/vatican-oks-receiving-covid-19-vaccines-even-if-research-involved-fetal-tissue

The Vatican says that it's "morally acceptable" to receive a vaccination for COVID-19, even if the vaccine's research or production involved using cell lines derived from aborted fetuses, given the "grave danger" of the pandemic.

The Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the Vatican office charged with promoting and defending church morals and traditions, said in a document released Monday that "when ethically irreproachable Covid-19 vaccines are not available ... it is morally acceptable to receive Covid-19 vaccines that have used cell lines from aborted fetuses in their research and production process."

Pope Francis approved the text on Thursday, Vatican News reported.

  what makes you and your cabal of sycophants think you are right?    i have a viewpoint, you have yours.  right/wrong?  so what are you to debunk?  AOC got the vaccine, right?  my point was for her to advertise it,  was beneficial only in that it may remove some of the political stigma they previously attached to it.  as for AOC and the rest of the pols to be getting it before many other "more essential" people?   many on both sides of the aisle felt they should be allowing other more essential people to get the vaccine before them.  who's wrong?  what do you think...or, what have your such reliable sources told you to think?

so tell me wise one, what are the sanctified "news sources" we all need to be enlightened by?  you know, the ones that aren't so "easily debunked".  i know who your sources are, and they've been factually wrong and/or inconsistent as much as any, depending on your viewpoint of course.  things can be spun many ways. 

  if i've lost my dignity in the eyes of "your people" then i know that i must doing alright-thank you for that

Where was your faux outrage when Pence got the vaccine?

It'd be nice if we stopped pushing down rocket.  I know he said something, which he said he thought about more... but maybe when someone regrets their previous stance we should be more encouraging rather than stepping on their neck.  We all knew what response it would elicit. 

Something we could all do better on this board is saying, "yep I was wrong" and then people letting that be.

Only if he admits he didn't know all politicians were getting the vaccine before he posted about AOC. Which he didn't do

Are all politicians going to the head of the line to get the vaccine? It's true they're eligible, but aren't some of them showing a bit of principle and waiting for their age group to be called?

Is that really "showing a bit of principle?" I mean, I have a heart condition that I don't consider to be serious (nor does my doctor), but it puts me in the "at risk" category, which bumps me up past a lot of people who are more than likely more "at risk" than I am. I'll be able to get it before my parents, who are both in their 60s (but neither have health risks). They're probably overall more "at risk" than I am. But I'm not going to pass on getting the vaccine when I first can. If I could take one of them in and say, "I'm passing my vaccine along to them!" Sure I'd do that. But that's not really how it works. And by getting vaccinated when I can, I'm making those around me safer.

Getting vaccinated when you can IS "showing a bit of principle."

What's ironic is that his words say way more about him than about AOC.

For month Joe Biden, Kamala Harris and their supporters banged the drum: "Don't trust the vaccine that's coming! It's the 'Trump Vaccine' - it is political, not based in science! I wouldn't take it, it's too dangerous!!

Now that the election is over, of course they're changing the tune. The damage to public confidence, though, has been done. As Reverend Wright was fond of saying, "The chickens have come home to roost!"

So Democrats are responsible for undermining the trust in vaccines...

Ohh...I get it now, it was the long play.  Undermine public trust so you can get it first!  Wait.  That's not what you were saying.

Are they restoring public trust?  Or stealing vaccines?

As you know, my opinion is all of congress and white house (incoming and outgoing for both) should get it so we can have a continuation of government, and they get be back in session face to face in Jan.

He routinely posts bullsh*t that's easily swatted down.  If he doesn't want to be "pushed down," he should post stuff that is more than a simple talking point.
