Do you expect anything better from Murphy who supports killing full term babies in the womb who sent 10000 nursing home patients to die from covid19. His liberal policies caused physical and spiritual harm to us.
ReplyDeleteThe askanim are working overtime with a PR campaign in a way to fool the olam and vote for him in November. Oh he is not as bad as Cuomo is the talking point they are pushing. Well Cuomo was beloved by the askanim untill he turned on the community and they still embraced him.
Make your own decision in who to vote for dont trust those that have ulterior motives to use the block vote for themselves
Murphy is far far from perfect, but which politician is perfect? I still feel we should have hakoras hatov to him for looking away from Lakewood for the most part during COVID. We had chasunahs and other events almost normally, while in Brooklyn they had to go into chasunah halls through the back entrances. (Most will disagree with me, but maybe for our safety, Murphy should have been as strict as Cuomo, but that's another issue completely) When a politician looks away and lets us do our thing, that's something for which we should be very grateful.
DeleteVoting is not about Hakoras Hatov for the past, it is about whose policies are best for us going forward. For Hakoras Hatov make a dinner.
DeleteWill the new school be in Lakewood or Jackson?
ReplyDeleteWe need to stop using up Lakewood resources for the people who live out of it. We can't handle the added traffic and higher property taxes (by losing buildings to tax exempt)
Funny argument. I was born and raised in Lakewood, paid taxes here for many years until BP came to lakewood and I had to buy a house in Jackson.
Deleteok. so now you live in jackson and not lakewood. it's a funny argument to say that because you were born and raised somewhere than your school should be there. if you were raised in brooklyn and moved to lakewood, should your school be in brooklyn?
DeleteIsrael sadly has Huge Covid Numbers
ReplyDeleteIsrael is the most vaxxed country in the world
What does that tell you ??
that HAshem runs the world (yes do your proper Hishtadlus Al Pi the Torah)
DeleteTells me that they are testing 5 times more than the US.
DeleteThey'll say all the sick are from the unvaxed people. Nothing at all to do with Who runs the show. We can beat this virus if only people would listen...
DeleteIt tells me, אל תבטחו בנדיבים בבן אדם שאין לו תשועה.
DeleteTime for serious teshuva and achdus ASAP together as a nation before this terrible coronavirus mageifa pandemic gets any worse C"V
DeleteThe nisayon is clear on all sides!
DeleteHashem gave EY a chance by being first with the vaccine to recognize his hand and inspire emunah (and perhaps geula), but the kochi o'otzem yadi blinds its leaders.
On the other hand, the vaccine is a true gift from Hashem but instead of recognizing his tremendous chesed in providing terufa l'makaso, too many are kafui tov, blind to the tremendous chasadim of the Ribbono Shel Olam, instead of saying ma hu af ata and living a life of chesed for yenem instead of the petty life of only thinking about ich.
So much to improve so much to change in the days before yom hadin!
The israel ministry of health says climbing numbers are due to the waning effects of vaccine. It doesn't last forever and was designed for the British not delta variant. That's why you you need a flu shot each year due to variant changes. Also vaccines are not 100 percent hand washing touching face face masks are needed. People are not makpid on masks don't use good masks don't wash hands etc. Its like a weight loss pill and a person doesn't watch what he eats. Bennet has politicized covid by opening airport and letting delta in no lockdown etc to show he's not like bibi who is heartless (but ABLE to control virus)
