Which questions do you want me to answer?
So my gut feeling is that Teachers should have a mandate to be vaccinated so schools can remain open in a safer way. Teachers spend all day with small children, many of whom are not yet able to get a vaccine and therefore are more likely ro get infected themselves and take the infections baxk to their families. If all school staff were vaccinated, there would be a smaller chance of infections spreading at schools. Also , teachers themselves would be less likely to become ill and having to take days off work because they are in bed with the flu. So the vaccine is needed to keep schools open and to keep them open more safely (and the following part now is important) IM THE MIDDLE OF THE WORST PUBLIC HEALTH CRISIS IN A CENTURY.
In fact, I believe the entire NCR recommendations (https://nrckids.org/cfoc/database/7.2.0.3) should be mandated.
Now if you think that this is nor reasonable, then you can provide me with some thoughts or data but this better not include anything about socialism.

I like Greece’s idea of fining people who won’t vaccinate. Refusing them medical treatment would be another option. A good way of trimming the herd.

You did not understand my response correctly.what I said is this:
1. I need a full dataset to form an opinion.
2. The MSN article DOES provide the full dataset including full text as well as the abbreviated text presented by Schiff.
3. It so happens that I agree with the MSN judgment that this is does NOT meet the "doctored" and especially not the "forged" definition for the reasons I have given in my last paragraph. For your benefit, I will repeat that paragraph now:
So Schiff was correct in using this as an example of the kind of BS that was fed to Meadows. Schiff's punctuation is incorrect but it did not alter the central message, which is that Pence should ignore electoral slates based on no legal reason at all.
So I am reading the available info so I can make my judgment. MSM do provide me with that info, whereas townhall don't. Instead, they give you THEIR judgment. Which is why I consider Townhall propaganda.
Tell me, how do YOU judge a question like, let's say, should there be a vaccine mandate for teachers?

This has the potential to be hilarious. I can't wait for the critical analysis.

Herlock I do not wish to debate vaccines I see both sides. I do not know what the answer is? I do believe Biden's strategy of ignoring treatments that help people after they become infected in favor of mandating a vaccine is costing lives. Not allowing Doctors to treat patients who have covid with therapeutics to try and force people to vaccinate is foolish. Since when does it makes sense not to treat people early instead of waiting until they need a hospital?

[QUOTE=Svensson;n778586]
So celee, what I am doing here is trying to educate you about the difference between primary sources and secondary sources. If you do not trust the secondary source, then you can use the secondary source to check out the primary source which is what my intention was. In the case of the two links you provided, the MSN.com source sounds legit whereas the townhall source does not provide me with the info I needed to properly assess the problem. Which is another confirmation, in my mind, why prublications like townhall are BS touting propaganda outlets.
You made the claim that "Adam Schiff has forged a text message". The reason I insisted on you providing a link is that I know what you are actually talking about. There is no "forgery" going on here and even the townhall does not suggest a forgery. Secondly, I don't even know when and in what context the incident you alleged has taken place. Adam Schiff has been a target for Republicans for about 5 years now. Finally, as Ally says, the "Do you own research" argument is a cop-out. It means you are not willing to stand by your claim. For the party of personal responsibility, you laying the groundwork to deny just about anything if and when things go south OR, as in your case, just move on to the next talking point which has been created out of thin air.
As I have said before. I have debated you before and posted sources and you always claim fake news. There is no way to defend an argument using news sources if I have to use the outlets you prefer because a lot of your favorite sources do not cover the story. Remember how CNN and all the other liberal news sources refused to cover the Hunter Biden laptop story and when they did mention the story they called it Russian disinformation? Boy, they got that one wrong.
FOX News I would consider a primary news source. FOX is the number one watched cable news network but you do not accept any reporting from FOX news. They got the Hunter Biden story right. I could have posted news articles that went into much more detail on Shift but you would have dismissed them as propaganda. It is not fun debating by your rules and only reference News sources that you trust. The fact is MSN and CNN are bias. Obviously, MSN is going to defend Shift and his story that the text message was altered mistakenly. I would be willing to believe that too. However, Adam shift in front of the Senate committee read an altered version of the transcript between Trump and the President of Ukraine and when called out about it he said he altered the transcript for dramatic effect. There seems to be a pattern.
At the end of the day, people tend to listen to the news source that they agree with. Unfortunately, so few people pay attention to politics and world events they allow the news to influence how they feel. Examine the current discussion on Fauci. People watch whatever news source and read a science article and are influenced to believe what they are told about the origin of the virus however if they watched the Senate hearing a heard the testimony and evidence firsthand they would be able to make an informed judgment. I do not need a lecture on primary and secondary news sources I keep up pretty well. I mean you did not even know about the Shift story until I did the research for you.
I would be curious to know what you consider a primary news source LOL and why you are blinded to the fact they are biased.
