Of course, both of you trying to lay the local blame, as a distraction, (as do all the presstitutes, world-wide). and omit the fact that the united snakes invested 3.7 million $ in the Wuhan labs (germ warfare labs) You both have access to Professor Francis Boyle's work on tracing the virus and determining the 'gain-up- procedures used to magnify terminal effects of Cov-Sars 19 g2 virus.. Add the Bill Gates multi-million dollar input, and there you have it The virus is man-made, and made by the 'mighty' us dollar End-of, (millions of folks)

Lt Col, we may have a few disagreements, but to call the President "notoriously optimistic" is the most painful. He can be many things, but to call him an optimist is a dodge. He's optimistic when it soothes the mob. He's pessimistic when it riles them. This isn't optimist, this is opportunism.

These are the hallmarks of a carnie, and I've seen too many rubes over these last few years to take that soft sell quietly. He doesn't need you to provide cover, there are plenty of people all too eager to line up at his tent.

As a Marine, I concur w and endorse the Col's self-regard and his aggrandizement of our club. :) But I love your stuff always, Claire, and so even with all the advantages one naturally has as a Marine, the Col is still at a disadvantage starting out. Marines always love a challenge. Thanks for the discussion. Of course this can be done - it's how sane adults converse.
