Phil Bredesen, Bill Purcell, Karl Dean and John Cooper are definitely not morons.

Matter of opinion.

Why are dry cleaners essential business? I mean I am glad mine was open I just dropped off three weeks of work clothes.

Probably for the same reason liquor stores are considered essential. They provide or service things that are considered essential (drink and clothing). Like you said, you dropped off work clothes...if you wear those for your job, I'd say that's essential.

I've seen some people complain that liquor stores are still open, saying that's not essential...I think you run into interesting territory when you deem certain food/drink essential and others not. OK, so alcohol isn't essential for life, but neither are restaurants, and those have been allowed to stay open for drive thru or takeout.

A lot of taxes paid out of those jobs.

Yes. I've been talking about his track record as an investor though, not how many jobs he created. He created a bunch of jobs, and that's great, but his investing track record isn't particularly great.

When the liquor stores are forced to close, I will panic.

I could have washed them and ironed them myself. I think you keep liquor stores open bc you don’t need a massive influx of the homeless who are alcoholics flooding emergency rooms as they go through detox.

What if you have clothes that have to be dry cleaned though?

You keep liquor stores open (and restaurants too) so the grocery stores don't get overwhelmed.

I would have never considered that.

Let me guess.....are they all Democrats?

Acting Navy secretary blasts ousted aircraft carrier captain as 'stupid' in address to ship's crew — CNN Politics

Again, love the headline. Now, let’s take a look at the actual comment:

"If he didn't think, in my opinion, that this information wasn't going to get out to the public, in this day and information age that we live in, then he was either A, too naïve or too stupid to be a commanding officer of a ship like this," Modly said. "The alternative is that he did this on purpose."

 

[luthervol]

I would have no issue working alongside someone who tested positive. But I also have immunocompromised folks in my household.

I would have issue working alongside someone who tested positive specifically because of the increased risk to my family.

1st sign of the apocalypse.

Yeah, that's a lot better.

I am not upset that they are open. In fact quite the opposite. I just hadn’t thought they would be. Hence why I had three weeks worth that needed to be done.

 

[PEPPERJAX]

I trust his wife to keep our little secret.

You just told us about your "little" secret so now it is known.

 

[newyorkvol]

Yeah, that's a lot better.

Modly clearly doesn’t call the Captain stupid. And yet that is what the headline states. I never said his statement was well crafted. If he said anything it’s that he thought is was done on purpose, which is the opposite of stupid.

Nope and hopefully it dies out.

I've been using the elbow bump for a few weeks now. I hope it replaces the handshake.

all leftist morons, some worse that others though

I prefer no contact greetings.

You must have long arms. I'm not getting that close to people.

 

[Septic]

Evidently thousands of doctors dont.

He should trot them out then, the guy he's rolling out onto the field doesn't believe hydroxy is a sound treatment.

 

[Purple Tiger]

Of course. A Republican would never be elected as Nashville's mayor.

 

[DancingOutlaw]

Because he's right?

This is the only place I get to be right.

 

[DancingOutlaw]

So the guy who tests positive can go to work, but his co-workers would need to self-quarantine to avoid him?
There is something a little backwards in your logic.

What business is letting infected employees come to work?

 

[Orange_Vol1321]

Yeah, that's a lot better.

Doesn't matter, he needed fired. You don't announce it to the world. You go through your military channels.
