Jim Jones: Drink the Kool-Aid.

Donald J Trump: Take the Hydroxy.

Jabu: These thing are in NO way similar!



Now, let's address this gem:



You ready?

Let's do this...

1. Doctors - you know, the folk who studied medicine for years, interned and specialised - prescribe medications based on their assessment of the symptoms their patients present.
2. Pharmacist - you know, the folk who sell medications - dispense the medication prescribed by doctors who have based their prescriptions on their assessment of the symptoms their patients presented.

Donald J Trump is neither a doctor nor a pharmacist.

Let me say that again, so we're clear...

Donald J Trump is neither a doctor nor a pharmacist.

Neither Bernie Sanders nor Joe Biden, nor any other Democrat has ever run a business, yet people like you want them to tell everyone who does have a business how to run it. And how much money they are allowed to make. And how much they have to pay their employees. And what skin colour their employees have to be. And how many condoms they have to provide in the bathrooms.

So yeah, you probably shouldn't play that card.

How about we all be a little more libertarian from this point forward?

I think Biden will choose Warren as VP. Not the most original thought but reading a number of articles, I'm getting strong vibes that Biden is going to choose her. Biden struggles with fundraising (it's actually a bit of a mystery how he won some earlier states), she doesn't. Will perhaps reassure more Democrats on the left flank as well. Harris is too compromised by her record as AG and Klouchbar has stuff about her bullying her staff.

Personally I don't see Trump winning even against Biden. Can he do it, yes, but it will be a tight race IMO.

Will put a smile on my face if he does though just to see the TDS crowd rant, rage and obsess for another 4 more years :ROFL:

They are really pushing hard for a black female VP. Do Warren still count?

Unproven?? People have been taking it for years now, and not only for malaria. What you talking about?

Note I said 'taking', not overdosing, taking a recommended dose.

Well, yeah.

Malaria is an insect-borne parasitic disease and it's been around for ages. That's why we have medications for it.

Coronavirus is a respiratory disease transmitted through droplets... Remind me how long Covid-19's been around for?

Hint: it's in the name.

Add all the notes you like, doesn't make the first part of your post less foolish.

Next time you get a headache you should try Preparation H, people have been taking it for years

What do you have to lose? It's been out there for a long time. What do you have to lose? I hope they use it.

So you're telling me that in the history of medicine that one type of medication used to treat one thing hasn't been found to be useful for treating another ailment? Is that actually what you're telling me?!

Come now, in your desperation to save face and throw poo at Trump you are starting to look like a complete fool.

Amebiasis
In treatment of amoebic liver abscess, chloroquine may be used instead of or in addition to other medications in the event of failure of improvement with metronidazole or another nitroimidazole within 5 days or intolerance to metronidazole or a nitroimidazole.[14]

Rheumatic disease
As it mildly suppresses the immune system, chloroquine is used in some autoimmune disorders, such as rheumatoid arthritis and lupus erythematosus.[1]

In case you haven't noticed that the right has been waging a war on science and expertise for years, I really hope this page has everyone up to speed now.

Lol.

Utter the term: "men cannot have babies" in a den of leftists and see what the reaction would be.

Or how about this doozy: men and woman are evolved to be good at different things. Hence not all jobs will have a perfectly 50/50 percent gender split.

The evangelical right are just as bad as the progressive left when it comes to evolutionary biology.

Warren vacates her senate seat... Charlie Baker drops in a Republican. Not an option.

Warren in a blue senate is a powerhouse driver of a progressive agenda.

Yeah, I love Liz but the more I think about it, the more it's likely to be Kamala.

Couple those with the supposed paying women less (which would actually mean more women than men in jobs) and you have lefty insanity starter pack.


Edit - oh @greg0205 ,medications can sometimes be used to treat diseases/conditions that they werent originally designed for.

I know you were trying to sound funny, but it actually just came across as really really stupid :thumbsup:

See post 8931 for some enlightenment as you and your other comrades clearly haven't heard of medications being used to treat more than one ailment.

Sure.

Just like Hydroxy... The problem with Hydroxy is that there is a 45% higher risk of death and a 411% higher risk of arrhythmia if you do...

But sure. Sure.
