Take in PEG? No thanks

Polyethylene glycol is a polyether compound derived from petroleum and is also known as PEG. This compound has many medical and chemical uses. It is used as a laxative. It is the main ingredient in paintball paint. It is used as an ink solvent. It has been used to preserve paint on Terracotta warriors and works if applied immediately upon unearthing. It is used to preserve wood salvaged from underwater. It is used by coal plants to remove CO2 and hydrogen sulfide. It is a component of the propellant used in UGM-133 Trident II missiles.

Recently, it is an ingredient in your Moderna and Phizer-BioNTech vaccines. All of you who have lambasted Ivermectin as a horse de-wormer, your slip is showing. You have injected wood preservative/rocket fuel into yourselves.

If you need the vaccine, get it, but I think I’ll pass, thanks.

LTEs = Democrat propaganda

It’s so easy to pick out the letter writers who get all their information from mainstream media and actually believe they are accurately informed. All are nothing more than propaganda arms of the Democrat party.

Perfect examples: “Threat to democracy” and “Vaccinations not perfect, but good step” (Letters to the Editor, Sequim Gazette, Feb. 23, page A-14, A-15).

Concerning the former letter, all the points made are boiler-plate Democrat lies and distortions, all easily refuted.

Let’s look at the calamities Biden and company have accomplished in just one short year. Totally opened the southwest border to anyone, no health or criminal background check. How many are hardcore terrorists and criminals? Think 9/11 was bad? That may soon look like Girl Scout stuff if any kind of WMD is used.

The Afghanistan exit resulting in 13 dead U.S. military personnel and at least $80 billion of top grade military equipment left behind for terrorists, an embarrassment of historic proportions.

Actions like above have destroyed American credibility with friend and foe alike, telegraphing weakness and incompetence. Now Russia is in Ukraine, Taiwan may soon be next? Biden has made America a global laughing stock, because he is a laughing stock.

Cutting off drilling and pipeline operations, huge energy spikes for everyone and again making us dependent on unfriendly countries.

Out of control money printing, helping bless us with 40-year high inflation.

It’s easy to see why Biden is at record lows in the polls. Only a grossly misinformed person would vote for any Democrat today, led by radical crazies who are a clear and present danger to us all.
