Not that he necessarily has a leg to stand on here, but I will say that (1) when Rick Perry was governor, there was almost a revolt when he briefly mandated HPV vaccinations for young girls (to prevent cervical cancer), and (2) Abbott, currently afflicted with COVID, has said in interviews that he credits the vaccine for why he's been able to withstand it without worse complications.

He could have really rolled downhill had he not been vaxxed.  Good to see him giving it credit.

Freaking power man.  Corrupts.

I mean, he probably wouldn't have though.  Every single person who has gotten covid after getting vaccinated says that they would have probably been hospitalized or it would have been much worse had they not gotten the vaccine.  I mean, maybe, but probably not given the statistics.  I like the vaccine, i am vaccinated, but this annoys me for some reason.

Given they do shooter drills on the reg not sure the kids find this too alarming.

Our kids do shooter drills guys.  The venn diagram of people mad about wearing masks in school and fighting any gun safety has to be a perfect circle.

There's large populations of people who fight gun safety?

Very strange if true

Yeah, it feels like Greg is trying to take a stand and convince the anti-vaxxers to go take care of themselves, but it's not working.

I'm not sure that rolling out the message that statistically he he still had a low chance of dying even without the shot is the best route to go when your hospitals are overrun and your MAGA antivax population is refusing to protect themselves and those around them. I'm pleasantly surprised he didn't go that route though.

Don't the statistics say that breakthrough cases are much less likely to require hospitalization or lead to death? Kind of a semantics argument, but the guy's a politician!!!

Also I thought Phil was just making a wheelchair joke LOL

Makes sense. Ultimately, the employer decides what percentage of the total health insurance premium each employee pays.

Who can argue with phrases like "impossibly huge".

That's the height of analytics and science right there.

anyone proposing any solution other than force every maga dumbfuck to get the vaccine or be put in a leper colony is just wasting their time. it's time we quit letting these downgrades have a choice.

If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.
