Tuesday, Dec 15, 2020 - Posted by Rich Miller * According to IDPH, Effingham County’s seven-day positivity rate is a whopping 18.5 percent. By comparison, Sangamon County’s is 8.4 percent, Chicago’s is 12.5 percent and suburban Cook’s is 12.8 percent. And yet, Rep. Darren Bailey held an indoor fundraiser and railed against “tyranny” with his favorite attorney by his side…

I am so sick of these yahoos. The fact that an elected official is so proud of breaking the law and that an attorney is as well is just disgusting.
- Bruce( no not him) - Tuesday, Dec 15, 20 @ 10:07 am:
We’re tired of tyranny. Also finding that breathing is highly overrated. Join us in stopping both.

The virus doesn’t care if you believe it’s real.
Bloomberg: “A White House official who fell ill with Covid-19 in September is recovering after three months in the hospital, though he lost his right foot and lower leg in his battle against the virus, according to a friend.”
As a society, we’ll be paying the costs for Bailey’s and his ilk’s denialism for decades to come.

Obviously calling these people stupid isn’t working. Rarely does.
Showing them %’s of positives to death rates isn’t working.
Maybe tell them the Democrats want them to have these death parties (and its a conspiracy man) will get them to put a mask on.

Hello Friends, Welcome to our Super Spreader Christmas Event. I’m your Host Darren (Freedom over Fear) Bailey and this is my partner in losing crime Tom (It’s not about winning) DeVore.
Please go mingle with everyone no masks required and make sure you get plenty of hugs from all the guests. We need to show the Tyrant in Chicago there ain’t no stinking COVID-19 in Bailey Country. Oh don’t believe that 18% stuff it’s just made up by that Doctor Ekay or whatever her name is.

Look in my eyes, what do you see?
The cult of personality
I know my anger, I know my dreams
I’ll be everything you want me to be
I’m the cult of personality
Like Brad Halbrook and me Bailey
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality
Neon lights, I heed your cries
Then a mirror speaks, the reflection lies
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set me free
I sell the things you need to be
I’m the smiling face on your T.V.
I’m the cult of personality
I exploit you still you love me
I tell you one and one makes three
I’m the cult of personality
Like Danny Proft and Amy
I’m the cult of personality
The cult of personality
The cult of personality
Neon lights, I heed your cries
A leader speaks, as others die
You don’t have to follow me
Only you can set you free
You gave me a forum
You gave me fame
You gave me power in your own good name
I’m every person you need to be
Oh, I’m the cult of personality
I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of
I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of, I’m the cult of personality

I still do not understand how Darren Bailey and his followers call themselves “Right to Life.” Dying from corona virus is not “Right to Life.” As much as I despise Representative Bailey, I truly hope he does not get this insidious disease.

Has Bailey ever taken a COVID test? He didn’t when the legislature was in session in May. Unfortunately, I think I know the answer. Embarrassing that this will be the face of the ILGOP.

Ok- assistant, here is whom to invite to my ICU New Years’ party. We should get some attendees from the people in these photos.
There’s nothing you can say to people who think they are Patrick Henry (hopefully I have the right patriot) and that this is the 1770s. They are closely followed by those who think their faith will protect them. Of course they are somewhat confused because their leader gave them the vaccine and they won’t take it because he got it for them ‘faster than ever before’.
