No, really not. Newsom was seen eating with friends at the French Laundry, a high-end restaurant in Napa in November, around the same time he was urging state residents to avoid gatherings with people outside their households. The recall petition had already attracted 1.7 million signatures by April.

Dinner party with friends at a restaurant vs going out clubbing with friends in high volume clubs are generally two different distinctions. The petition to recall Newsome is politically charged and bollocks, but that's the political society we live in now. Impeachment or recalls are political weapons used by the opposite party to force undemocratic measures onto constituents.

Thanks, Will, but your reply is irrelevant to my post, which was nothing more than a correction of fact. The attempt to recall Governor Newsom was not caused or motivated by his maskless attendance at a dinner party. It could not possibly have been. The recall campaign was started in January 2020. The dinner took place in November 2020. Last time I looked cause is supposed to precede effect. The maskless dinner just added impetus to the already existing recall petition. Seabass was bullshitting.

The official pretexts for the recall (per petition form) are:
The grounds for this recall are as Follows: Governor Newsom has implemented laws which are detrimental to the citizens of this state and our way of life. Laws he endorsed favor foreign nationals, in our country illegally, over that of our own citizens. People in this state suffer the highest taxes in the nation, the highest homelessness rates, and the lowest quality of life as a result. He has imposed sanctuary state status and fails to enforce immigration laws. He unilaterally over-ruled the will of the people regarding the death penalty. He seeks to impose additional burdens on our state by the following; removing the protections of Proposition 13, rationing our water use, increasing taxes and restricting parental rights. Having no other recourse, we the people have come together to take this action, remedy these misdeeds and prevent further injustices.


Sorry for the late response, but I wasn't disagreeing with your post. The pretext for the recall still shows to me that it was politically charged. There is a lot of things California still does right. It's not perfect, but the modern day GOP won't be fixing homelessness, or the drug problem either.

Remember that whole thing about vaccines causing viral shedding and infertility in women? Well, it seems Ivermectin actually causes low sperm count :lol:

This is a two-fer. Irony plus actual Darwinism.

Not quite accurate. The studies purporting to prove that are made on small mammals or methodologically unsound.

I am not a Trump supporter and neither is the site whose article I linked to. truthorfiction.com has busted urban legends since 1999. According to nbcnews factcheck.org, hoax-slayer.com, politifact.com, snopes.org, truthorfiction.com, and urbanlegends.about.com are agreed on which reports were true about 95 percent of the time. Perhaps you should read what the article I linked to reports.

Today we have over 700 new cases, 6 reported deaths, and the highest case rate in New England. After having the lowest through most of the pandemic. So low that Maine was the #1 tourist destination, and vacant houses/house lots have been selling like weed at a Jethro Tull concert.
