Breathtaking! Praise for President Trump's Greatest Legacy, Operation Warp Speed!
"Thanks to the [B]prior administration[/B] and our scientific community, America was one of the first countries to get the vaccine. "
-- Joseph R. Biden
"I think the (Trump) administration deserves credit for getting this off the ground with Operation Warp Speed. This gives us great hope. "
-- Joseph R. Biden.
"The Operation Warp Speed, for which I give a great deal of credit to secretary Azar, was an effort that many of us were not initially convinced was going to be necessary and it was thought about as a Manhattan Project. Those words were used sometimes to describe what needed to happen in order to get all parts of the government together in an unprecedented way to test up to six vaccines in rigorous trials, and to do this at-risk manufacturing so that if any of those trials happen to work, you would already have doses ready to go into arms. That would not be the way things are traditionally done. The fact that two vaccines underwent clinical trials of at least 30,000 people and a rigorous Food and Drug Administration process just 11 months from when the USA first learned about the coronavirus is [b]breathtaking. [/b]"
-- Dr. Francis Collins, National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director.
"The Warp Speed project appears to be a dramatic success. Although I've been a frequent critic of this administration, I want to give them credit for organizing this effectively, and delivering a vaccine in a timely way, almost amazing timely way in this pandemic that we face. "
--Senator Dick Durbin, Democratic Senator from Illinois.
"The idea of Operation Warp Speed, and the investment of that amount of money to get that amount of vaccines ready to go, clearly is something that should be given as credit to the [b]Trump administration.[/b] There's no doubt about that. "
--Dr. Anthony Fauci.
"This is an unmitigated success, and we should acknowledge that the Moderna vaccine was done with funds from Operation Warp Speed and the Pfizer one has (Warp Speed]) funding when it comes to the distribution and manufacture. And I just think it's important that people working so hard. Get credit for this. [B] And President Trump was the one who OK'd it.[/B]To all of the scientists, everyone behind this all the way up to [B]President Trump[/B] and Vice President Pence, congratulations on this great accomplishment".
--Jake Tapper, Left Leaning Commentator on CNN.
"The pace of medical innovation has been forever changed. I mean January 11 is when they got the sequence of this virus. By March 16 two months later shots were going into arms as part of these clinical trials. I couldn't believe it when I saw that pace. It typically takes years to really get these vaccines approved. It will be done within a year. So that is worth celebrating. And now we have some early data to be very optimistic about. "
--Dr. Sanjay Gupta, CNN House doctor, replying to Tapper.
No flowers, just all available data and evidence
[QUOTE=Tiny12;2781575]Good one!
ROTFLMAO! That would explain a lot. Tooms is no dummy, but damn, the flowery picture he paints of the Democratic Party and its infallibility is way over the top.[/QUOTE]Producing and presiding over every major economic recovery, expansion and record high jobs creation and none of the Great Depressions, Great Recessions and Massive Jobs Destruction of the past 100 years is a "flowery picture" of the Democratic Party? I didn't paint it. The Dem Party painted it into reality. It's right there in all the available, verifiable data and evidence.
If the Republican Party ever paints something other than the same Great Depressions, Great Recessions, Massive Jobs Destruction and none of the major economic recoveries, expansions and record high jobs creation they have been producing and presiding over for almost 100 years, the data and evidence will show it without the need for flowers too.
So far, nope, they haven't done it. And there is zero evidence they have the slightest idea or interest in changing that astonishingly consistent pattern anytime soon or in our or our great grandchildrens' lifetimes.
Yes, some people tried to save more Repubs' lives. In vain.

It didn't work all that well though. Trump was so worried everyone would catch on and notice he was the one that required America to swing into action on Obama's Fast Track Vaccine Development programs in the first place he barely even mentioned his silly rebranded name for it, Operation Warp Speed. LOL. He was so certain the unavoidable connection would be made if he referenced it very much, getting boo'd by his well-trained followers for even suggesting getting vaccinated and all that, he only got vaccinated himself to save his own life in near total secrecy! He and Melania.
So the efforts by Biden, Fauci and the others you quoted to woo his numbskull followers into accepting what those Obama Fast Track programs had produced with at least Trump's silly new name for it still did not convince hundreds of thousands of them to find a different way to "Own The Libs" other than choking the last diseased breath out of their own lungs to a horrible death sans those life-saving "Dem" vaccines. "Breathtaking" indeed.
Oh well. At least they tried to save more Repubs' lives. Which is a hell of a lot more than Trump did for them.
Here's something to ponder
"Contracting COVID-19 does provide protection against future infections, but like the vaccine, the protection fades over time, at roughly the same pace". This quotation is from USA Today.
Gee, the virus that causes COVID mutates. Who knew? {sarcasm alert}.

Sorry Tiny but leave me out
[QUOTE=Tiny12;2781830]No, no Brother Marquis. I'm convinced that a message of love and redemption and logic will cause our brethren on the left to see the light and change their wicked ways. We must bring the word to them, the word of the Saints. Saint Milton Friedman, Saint Friedrich Hayek, and Saint Ludwig von Mises. Don't take up arms Brother Marquis. Pray for them and for their immortal souls.[/QUOTE]It isn't anyone from the left who called for a Civil War, it was this guy who wants to be first in line. I guess he is still a little boy who wants to play army. He can have his one man Civil War and go shoot himself. Civil War and killing is not a joke. Let's get some sense here. Maybe he will cut and paste his way through his Civil War too.
