Hassy, what spin do you put on the high number of official deaths in the Republican controlled states of Florida and Texas? What is evident is the learned experience from the first wave of infections has resulted in still high infection rates but much better morbidity control.

Morbidity would have been a damn sight less if the Democrats had not denigrated Hydroxychloroquine as a treatment in an attempt to harm Trump.

What a disgusting lot they are.

Paul,

I can't remember the last post of yours that didn't contain at least one outright lie.

I have posted many if not most of my links and quotes from non-newscorp media primarily because few in the left whinge subscribe. Considering that you very seldom if ever provide a quote or link because you avoid facts.

Come, come, shonkyminister, you are well known on the forum for your links to the Murdoch rags. You must be on the dollar a month deal, where you get all that guff for next to nothing. You stick up a link, I open it, and its a Murdoch paywall. My principles wont allow me to stoop so low as paying to read the rantings of Beat Up Bolt, The Lovely Miranda Devine, Putrid Akerman or Ranting Richo! I forgot The Jones Boy as well! I will not finance some billionaire whose media empire publishes nothing but trash!

At least the Murdoch Press is not a state sanctioned and funded Communist/ Socialist propaganda machine- he seems to be the main media speaking up for Australian interest. But I guess that Paul1405 doesn't care about Australia's interest- is he even Australian- maybe he is just a global communist.

Focussing on the IMPORTANT things in life:

Over these dark Covid months I've gained an affliction for happy Country and Western music, preferably song by somebody young, blonde and female.

To that end, here's a song called "Classic" (released July 2020) - sung by a lass called "Cam" http://www.allmusic.com/artist/cam-mn0003380333/biography

Here's "Classic" on video http://youtu.be/fqkTcwLL-Bc

Lyrics are below:

Pickin' up some Lucky Strikes
Leanin' on the wall outside
They don't make 'em like that anymore
Talkin', down at the corner store
They shut their lights and they closed their doors
'Cause they don't make 'em like that anymore
But you and I are classic

Like a bench in the front seat
Like a big yellow taxi
Like your best friend's mixtape
A big limo and a prom date
Ain't nothin' new I'm waitin' for
'Cause they don't make 'em like this anymore

I wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
Wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
They don't make 'em like this anymore

Fixin' up the '65
Take ya to the drive-in tonight
They don't make 'em like that anymore
With the stars on the screen, good Lord
I'm talkin', speaker hangin' off a truck door
No, they don't make 'em like that anymore
But you and I are classic

Like a bench in the front seat
Like a big yellow taxi
Like your best friend's mixtape
A big limo and a prom date
Ain't nothin' new I'm waitin' for
'Cause they don't make 'em like this anymore

I wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
Wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
They don't make 'em like this anymore

Johnny and June
Chevy, light blue
(They don't make 'em like this anymore)
Bette Davis
Yellow pages
(They don't make 'em like this anymore)
But you and I, we were built to last it
Just a couple of stone cold classics
Just a couple of stone cold classics
Just a couple of stone cold classics

I wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
Wanna hit rewind, baby
Take our time
...
They don't make 'em like this anymore
