Funny, I reported a conversation I had with a coworker here about three weeks back. He used that "conservatives don't believe in vaccines" line. To which I mentioned to him that we generally do. What we don't believe in is govt statements about vaccines when they were caught lying time after time.

1. It will stop you from getting covid. Nope, that was a lie.
2. It will stop you from transmitting it. Nope, that was a lie.
3. It will stip you from getting is a second time. Nope, that was a lie.

He then tried the "Sometimes you ahve to lie for the greater good".

To which I told him that once those lies are exposed, you have hurt yourself them next time around because nobody will believe you. Hell, this guy still thinks masks made a difference. And that this virus was maybe natural in origin.

I’ll tell you what’s infuriating, you blame Biden for the price of eggs, the price of gas, a bridge collapsing, airplanes being delayed, people driving crazy on the roads, etc.

But Trump, he isn’t responsible for anything! Everything that went poorly during his time as president is always the fault of someone else!

You’re too hypnotized to realize your dear leader is just a con man.

Wow. 1.25? And it wasn't in the cheap dairy area? I don't think even ALDI ever had prices like that.

Cheap dairy? It was at the end of the normal dairy section (it goes milk->yogurt->cheese->eggs->butter). Wasn't aware there was an expensive dairy aisle, unless you mean the fancy cheese by the deli counter.

And I may have been off by 10 cents here or there, could have been $1.24-$1.40, I bought the $2 eggs so I wasn't paying much attention other then that they were cheaper.

I actually just checked the food-lion order online through Instacart website, and the prices there are crazy. Much higher than what I know for a fact I paid. I wonder if Instacart does what the food delivery services to and inflates the prices. FREE DELIVERY! *of food market up 20%*

He is reponsible for the gas prices - he's done everything possible to eliminate fossil fuels, the internal combustion engine, gas powered cars, fracking, natural gas production, even the coal industry and so forth. He's made it plain he intends to end gas powered vehicles eventually. That is no secret. He IS on the hook for that. As a consequence, EVERY product needing to be delivered by gasoline has gone up in price.

Soon he will get a double dose, because OPEC, seeing higher interest rates is planning to cut production. Watch gas prices SOAR.

But you're doing a lot of projection - blaming someone for something the left does already. I cannot recall a time when the Dems did NOT blame either Republicans - or a Democratic President blaming his Republican predecessor - sometimes with ABSURD accusations (like Biden claiming inflation was 9 percent when he took office). Heck, during Obama's administration, hearing blame on George Bush was so common, they jokingly referred to the strange earthquake on 8-23-11 in Virginia on a hitherto unknown geologic formation known as "Bush's Fault".

This is their stock in trade - they DO NOT SOLVE PROBLEMS. They advance their agenda, and IF it has an unpleasant outcome, they blame Republicans.

At Giant, on the end cap, they have a markdown area for cheaper dairy items, usually items ABOUT to go off the shelf. I did buy two cartons of eggs in the 18 pack recently on markdown - half-price, but it was labelled with a yellow markdown sticker. We made deviled eggs out of ALL of them.

I say cheap dairy because most items there are on sale or markdown - like the day old bread section, the markdowns by the bathrooms in the back and the meats with the yellow markdown sticker. The meats typically go FAST.

Now, now Sam... Higher Energy prices and goverments war on fossil fuels doesn't contribute to inflation.

The Greenie Weenies have spoken. It's all rainbows, Unicorns and unlimited Genie wishes.

And yet domestic extraction is at an all-time high. The reality doesn’t comport with your inane rant.

You people are so detached from reality that at some point I don't even know how to respond.

Biden just came out and publicly stated he was going to release oil reserves to lower gas prices for the summer. Back early on in his term he stated he had no control to lower gas prices.

So yes I do blame him.

Talk about detached from reality

US oil production is at a record high and we are the greatest producer of oil in the world!


No one is ending ICE cars, no one is taking your gas stoves, etc, you folks are living in a made up paranoid world.
