McConnell Defends Polio Vaccine, an Apparent Warning to Kennedy

You are an idiot.

Quit insulting idiots.

When exactly was RFK against the polio vaccine?

Last I checked, he's just against government enforced vaccination and especially so for new and unproven vaccines.

No unproven ones are in use -- the FDA wouldn't allow it.

KY Senator Mitch McConnell Defends Polio Vaccine, an Apparent Warning to Kennedy

Aging Senator Mitch McConnell has fired a "shot across the bow" of HHS-nominee RFKjr and his "Holistic Health brigands" against discontinuing administration of the polio vaccine to young children.

It seems Mitch McConnell suffered from polio when he was very young, and knows first-hand the effects of not being vaccinated (the vaccine wasn't invented until 1953, McConnell was born in 1942). The vaccine has been safe and effective for 71 years, but RFKjr and his minions say we need "more studies".

Like most Republicans, McConnell doesn't take a position on something unless he has personal experience with it (you might recall AIDs didn't exist for Republicans until Nancy Reagan's friend Rock Hudson died in 1985).

The polio vaccine has nothing to do with what RFK is advocating. The Polio Vaccine was a real vaccine that actually worked. Glitch McConnell is living in the past and unattached to the here and now.

How the fuck do you think we eradicated polio?

Without mandatory or coerced vaccination.

Mandatory vaccination has a good strong track record in wiping out diseases.

Smallpox vaccines in the civilized world were mandatory as early as 1850.
Take your revisionist history elsewhere, you ignorant tool.

I've never seen one of the architects of a movement so quickly be thrown under the bus than McConnell.

Anyone in MAGA with a lick of intelligence would be creating a monument to this guy.

No one denies governments can and will trample people's rights. Thankfully, things like the 1898 Vaccination Act introduced a "conscientious objection" clause, going in the right direction of respecting people's choices in the matter.

There is something grotesque in raising a reluctance to be vaccinated to the moral level of a reluctance to do military service.

Thank you Turtle Boy for keeping that Marxist off the SCOTUS! Now retire.

The actual amount of results you got from this guy is insane. The closest Democrat would be Obama.

You fucking idiots

Turtle Boy is a relic from a bygone era. Yes, he’s done right by Republicans over his long career, but he, along with Pelosi, Pudd’n Head Biden, and many others, have become the poster children for Term Limits.

I say again, thanks Turtle Boy! Retire. It’s time. The party you once ruled over has passed you by. Besides…he’s waaaaay too Cozy with the Chinese for my taste.

I think you've been talking to UltraChad too much. So if the greater good required you to get a shot and the side effect was total paralysis, or some other debilitating condition that altered your life for the worse, you'd be ok with that?
