Biden's Dangerous Speech

I don't know about you, but I'm still furious about President Biden's outrageous speech on the coronavirus last week. That was a dangerous speech – in some ways even more dangerous than the virus itself.

 

As we have previously noted, Biden argued two completely contradictory points. He demanded that everyone get the vaccine because it saves lives. Research shows that few people get seriously ill after taking the vaccine. 

 

We also know that the risk of "serious breakthrough infections" – fully vaccinated people getting infected and becoming seriously ill – is extremely low.

 

But then Biden totally undermined the good news about the vaccine. He attacked unvaccinated Americans, claiming they were putting all of us – including the vaccinated – at risk. 

 

That's just not true. If the vaccine is generally effective, the only people the unvaccinated are putting at risk are other unvaccinated people. Biden conceded as much when he declared, "This is a pandemic of the unvaccinated." 

So, Biden not only undercut the argument for vaccination, he needlessly demonized millions of Americans – our family members, our children, people we go to church with. 

 

And here's why Biden's remarks were so dangerous: A recent poll asked Americans who they considered to be the biggest threats to the country. Fifty-six percent of self-identified Democrats said the biggest threat to the country is "the unvaccinated." 

 

Not the Taliban. Not communist China, Russia or the record number of illegal aliens we know nothing about.  Well, who's telling Democrats to fear their fellow citizens? Joe Biden. Who's stirring up this division? Our "unity president" Joe Biden.

 

But Biden didn't stop there. He ordered American businesses to force their employees to get vaccinated or lose their jobs. So, now if you don't follow Joe Biden's orders, you could lose your house and might not be able to feed your family. 

 

I expect this outrageous abuse of power in North Korea and communist China, but not in America -- the land of the free.

 

We know the virus mutates rapidly. Some scientists worry it will become even more dangerous. The virus is also making us mutate into a quasi-totalitarian state where big government is dictating what we must put into our bodies. 

 

Many conservative governors are vowing to sue the federal government. I hope and pray they win, so Joe Biden is reminded that he's not a dictator.
