    I watched his confirmation. I know what he is. Why do I care what you think about Levine when you could care less?
    And you want me to do roundy rounds with you on your so called RW lying media claims?
    Or your white male conservative rants? You are funny.

    Well....we are not yet a year.yet...Time will tell ( about the VP)


    Yes, that nursing home situation was bad. No question about it. But ( no excuse.......just reality).........the whole pandemic thing was BADLY mishandled at the onset........staring with the hoax nonsense.. This appointee might not workout........but I think she should be given a chance. This is breaking new territory and that is what america is all about.....

    Yes - how many?

    What makes you think that this person was not the most qualified for the job?

    In other words:

    You've got NOTHING.:bored:

    In any event, I (once again) want to wish Adm. Levine all the best.

    He's a rank amateur compared to The Trunt and his grifting swamp spawn.

    Why is the head of the USPS - a civilian - called the Army rank of General?

    Being called the Post Master General is a title, not a military rank. The title is a hand me down from before the US was the US (Thomas Jefferson was the Post Master General under the Crown). The USPS is also not considered a part of the military. The USPHS IS considered as a part of the military and the head of it carries the rank of Admiral and carries just as much weight as any other Admiral in the US Navy.

    Now. Why is a person who has never once served in the military being given the rank of Admiral?

    What makes her qualified to be an Admiral? When did she serve in the military? For how long?

    The fact that she has never once served in the military means she is not qualified to be an Admiral.

    if red states are doing the same thing today, should they not learn from Cuomo's mistakes

    it's one thing to do it when the Pandemic is new and people still learnign...

    The "hoax" nonsense was talking about Democrats. Trump never once called the virus a hoax.

    Because it has been one of the uniformed services of the United States since the signing of the Constitution. Have a problem with it? Bitch at the Founders...

    That did not answer my question. All you did was address the fact that the USPHS is a part of the military. Which has already been covered. Its good to see you acknowledge this fact. Now....Why is a person who has never once served in the military being given the rank of Admiral? What makes this person so special that she gets to skip the decades of hard work that every other Admiral has to go through in order to obtain the rank?

    We are far enough in to see the dumpster fire.

    YOU can see it

    The China virus was bad so packing nursing homes with covid infected is not bad?

    YOU understand this.

    The tranny is NOT A SHE.

    It's a man in a dress.

    Every one of us was born from a woman, WHY CHEAPEN THAT?

    IM A MAN in awe of what women can do.

    Never mind. After doing some of my own research I have found that several of the past USPHS heads never served in the military also. Apparently this is a normal thing. Stupid imo. An insult to all the Admirals that worked their butts off for the rank. But, apparently, normal.

    Lol…she will be living rent free in right wing heads for a long time to come.
    By the way, J Edgar Hoover was a cross-dressing transvestite, but that didn’t stop him from doing his job.

    Sorry, never heard of a red state governor killing thousands in retirement homes by forcing them to take infected people.

    Democrats had no concern about the virus when he said that. You do realize that he said that at the time that Democrats were calling Trump xenophobic for closing the border to/from China with the exception of American citizens right? That at that time Democrats were downplaying COVID and saying that the flu was more deadly? Telling people to "come on down to Chinatown!". That Trump was exaggerating about the virus.

    Context. It matters. You and everyone else that has tried to spin it always leave out the context.

    A one liner with no substance. You can't even show where that expression applies to me. Hell, you can't even argue against what I said, otherwise you would have done that instead of just attacking.
