I mean, sure. But first you need to show how "corrective lenses" on a drivers license is any less worthy of privacy than COVID immunization status. Address is also a HIPAA protected item. So is your name. There's already penalties in place for divulging those kind of things. [ahem] MAYBE WE SHOULD ENFORCE THE LAWS THAT ARE ALREADY IN PLACE.

"If they want this law to be enforced, then they should have an elite group of enforcers in front of every restaurant, and then they can shake you down for your vax status before entering." Yeah. Too bad there isn't a government agency that stops into every restaurant periodically and checks to make sure they have been following the law. Maybe like a health department or something? Oooh, and they could make businesses post their grade on how well they follow the law somewhere the public can see it?!? Nah, you're right. It'll never work.

The brackets are SUPPOSED to mean you changed the word without changing the intent. The dishonest part is that you did it to mislead people or otherwise you wouldn't have changed the word. And "the president" =/= "the presidency". Thomas Jefferson owned slaves. The presidency does not own slaves. If it was the same, Trump would step down because he has said in the past that the president should resign for people dying in a pandemic or refusing to take responsibility for failures of the office. You know perfectly well that Pelosi was talking about Trump's actions and not the actions of the concept of a president. I'm not surprised that the kind of person that is this dishonest doubles down when called out, just disappointed.

Nancy Pelosi: [The presidency] remains an ongoing threat to American democracy (asking for a British style parliamentary system where obviously she would be Prime Minister) this is something you can get through the mail if you run out (talking about $96/gallon ice cream) employers cutting hours is a good thing, it then gives that person time to pursue their dreams and passions

You do realize your credibility is shot forever when you abuse quotes, right? The kind of BS lying I expect from the "fair and balanced crowd". Where do you want to start? The fabricated quote from 4 years ago? Pelosi never said "cutting hours is a good thing". Completely made up. (https://www.politifact.com/factchecks/2016/dec/12/turning-point-usa/facebook-image-revives-made-claim-nancy-pelosi-pra/) Or how you tried to make "the president" into "the presidency"? How dishonest! The quote was "Sadly, because of the Republican Senate’s betrayal of the Constitution, the president remains an ongoing threat to American democracy." THIS president is the threat, not the institution. What a whopper! What other lies do you want to feed us? Should I continue?
