Yes, the Democrats who have forced our children to wear masks in classrooms for the past year (after forcing them to lose a year of school by plowing through the "remote learning" fiasco) are starting to come around and rescind the anti-scientific, harmful policies.
Yes, from states as Democrat-dominated as California, Connecticut, Oregon, and New Jersey, we're witnessing palpable liberation for children trapped in the government-run schools that have been mismanaged and neglected by a party beholden to the ever-powerful national teachers' union and their anti-child dictates.
Yes, even Golden Child Stacey Abrams was forced to submit a non-apology/apology after the devastating damage done by her hideous photo-op featuring 5-year-olds with cloth strapped against their beautiful, young faces while Abrams spittle-spreading mug was left liberated from any type of barrier.
Oh, wait, I'm sorry, she didn't apologize that she forced kids to keep their faces under wraps. She apologized for taking a picture with the kids because she had to suffer political blowback. What a queen.
But you get the picture. The tide, it is a-turning.
As Guy Benson elaborates in a very thorough column, it appears to be the political science, not the epidemiological sort, that's motivating the newfound interest in letting our kids breathe freely in classrooms.
The political assumption appears to be that because polling shows just how unpopular the school masking protocols are (we're talking Biden-level unpopularity), Democrats believe they can ease the restrictions and claim to be the great emancipators of our kids, and we should all bow and be grateful for their benevolence come this November.
Really? I don't think so.
I know, I know... we are all about to be lectured to by the morally superior "True Conservatives" (now working for CNN and MSNBC, etc.) who seemingly dispatch weekly missives on our obligation to "extend grace" and meet our friends on the left halfway so that we can unify and work together to make this nation the cooperative, one-party utopia it once was.
Well, not only is that a load of historical bunk that presupposes a history as accurate as The West Wing accurately portrayed life in the White House, but it also denies one of the most important purposes of the democratic function of choosing our representatives and elected officials.
Revenge. Electoral revenge.
When your elected officials and representatives betray you and your tax dollars and even your children in the obscene and unthinkable way they have over the past two years, you must wreak revenge. You must punish them.
You must... make them pay.
It's not enough to shrug your shoulders and say to yourself, "Well, they finally got to the right side of this issue so let's just move on." No. It's your obligation to punish a politician for the harm done to you and your family, especially considering the nature of the harm and the arrogant defiance these politicians showed in the face of the truth and in the face of your protestations over the past year-plus of anguish.
Make them pay.
Make them pay for ignoring the science and data we saw almost from the first months of this pandemic that showed (miraculously) that our children were not in any real danger of serious illness or death unless they also suffered from a co-morbidity... and even then, the death rates have been infinitesimal compared to other groups.
Make them pay for continuing to force our kids to wear these masks despite the very real data showing that cloth masks made little or no difference in the transmission of the virus in schools.
Make them pay for insisting our children stay masked in school despite the mountain of studies showing the very real damage this practice does to their emotional, social and physical development and well-being.
Make them pay for calling you domestic terrorists for exercising your right... no, your responsibility to speak out and challenge these know-nothings at school board meetings where they sit on their plexiglass encased throne of superiority, barely tolerating your 60 seconds of microphone time while they struggle with today's Wordle and barely make an attempt to appear like they're listening to you plead for your child's health and well-being.
Make them pay for ignoring the real-time data set accumulated in Florida, where schools have been in class and free for nearly a year without any discernable sign of danger for the students or the teachers.
Make them pay for even proposing in the first place that our youngest, developing children must sacrifice their growth and their well-being so that tenured union thugs with teaching credentials can "feel safer" when they walk into a classroom full of "walking Petri dishes" as the oh-so-caring school teachers like to call your child.
Has any society ever forced a burden such as this on our youth so that the elderly and obese can "feel" a false sense of security from contracting a virus? Shame on us.
But first, shame on them. They who first proposed and then implemented this nonsense, and now, grudgingly and cynically, acquiesce only to expect your gratitude and, most importantly, your vote this November.
Make them pay. It's what your vote is all about.
Sure, I want you to vote for a candidate that you really like... that would be great. But, more importantly, I want you to vote against those who did this to our kids.
Send a message so that this dystopia isn't even considered again.
You know what to do.
Make them pay.

Make them pay?
HOW?
Also, WHAT HARM DONE?
exactly and most definitely!
Voter revenge at the ballot box. Loss of office.
Reading the article will point it all out perfectly well.
Abrams' latest pathetic excuse for not having the mask on is that she "followed safety protocols but removed her mask to read to the children - and mistakenly left it off". The same day she was blasted for taking a maskless selfie in front of a group of "supporters"
Make them pay? Hell yes. There is no place for hypocrites like this.
Exactly and those blue cities and states that are only now beginning to ease their totalitarian and authoritarian rules and mandates in response to parents and Canada deserve no positive electoral credit for finally following the science.
In response to parents? Or in response to polling numbers? This is after all an election year.
One and the same in this case…
How can one take this author seriously when we have such over-the-top emotive use of language illustrating irrational bias?
'Queen' indeed; get a grip.
The language and the references are right on. When one party has political leaders who do stupid things and or have awful results as to their policies the other party is usually returned to power as a result. The cyclical ebb and flow of things. In the case of democrat/ blue city/state/federal policies lately, the rhetoric if anything is understandable and understated. It’s simple free speech an voter response in civil and peaceful terms.
I am suggesting an aid to people who cannot distinguish biased reporting/analysis from objective reporting/analysis.
If the article is replete with emotive (especially ridiculously so) nouns and adjectives that is a very strong indication that the author is not being objective. Accepting such bias as truth distorts one's base of knowledge to one that is biased (and thus, objectively, wrong).
Most here have the intelligence to know what an op-Ed article is and what a hard news article is. This one didn’t need your help to point out that’s it’s advocating from a particular political and economic point of view.
I did not speak of distinguishing opinion from hard news. I spoke of distinguishing biased reporting/analysis from objective reporting/analysis.
It is clearly written in my post yet somehow you read something entirely different from what I wrote. How did you do that?
I didn’t. You are wasting your time lol telling me that my op Ed article came from a certain bias and point of view. Something I already knew and anyone reading it could figure out without your or my additional input.
Yet again you somehow fail to see the point.
The point is that an obviously biased article should not be considered information. It should, actually, be ignored and one should spend one's time on more credible, information-bearing articles.
Why? Because according to you conservatives political ideas and opinion articles should be ignored in favor of stuff more milk toast and compatible with your world view? Not going to happen. An opinion you don’t like is still information bearing. Thanks go to Town Hall for having this writer among their writers and for printing it on their site.
a simple enough informed choice one should make.
Non sequitur. No surprise.
WTF are you blabbering about now? Conservative political ideas and opinions are welcome. Hyperbole, conspiracy theories, uber-partisanship and extreme rhetoric is not. Further, you clearly have no clue of my world view if you think I favor feeble content and am against anything conservative.
Yet again you fail to comprehend. My criticism was on the overt bias; the content was not even under discussion.
I really don’t care what you think about my seeded article. [deleted]
Almost anyone writing an op Ed article is writing it from an overt partisan or bias point of view.
The content of the seeded article is the topic here. Speak to it or not at all.
[deleted]
The seeded article is right on regarding what was written within it. It’s time to pay! What happened to Obama 12 years ago is going to happen to Biden now.
What is agnorance?
Look it up.
I did and flagged it as a personal insult coc. Thanks
