1. Will this FINALLY be the end of that poop obsessed quack's 15 minutes?

My mother watches him and is obsessed with poop now. I'm so fucking tired of hearing about him.

I cannot wait until his way-too-long 15 minutes are up.

[appalachiablue]

3. Haven't seen him in yrs, a 'poop' racket must be tiring

for plenty. How low can he go-

[Baclava]

2. Part of Trumps death cult, they don't care how many die as long as they can claim people are working

[appalachiablue]

4. How can people be that stupid, it's staggering

[Baclava]

18. Its all a leftwing/China bioweapon plot by the WHO in swing states to take down Rump in Nov, ayep

[Midnight Writer]

5. Tonight that Dr Phil guy was on Laura Ingram listing the negative health effects of staying home.

Didn't watch but a bit, but he seemed to be coming down on the "Open Her Up!" Team.

I reckon one negative health effect of staying home may be because people have more time to watch Dr Oz and Dr Phil.

[appalachiablue]

6. Dislike him, I didn't realize Oz & Phil are both Oprah products

Drs. Shill!

[Skittles]

7. all three of them are quacks

[appalachiablue]

10. Queen of Quacks? can't forget Oprah's spiritual advisor.

[Skittles]

12. I have NEVER understood Oprah's popularity

she is unbelievably phony

[appalachiablue]

14. Never watched, I was always working but her book club

picks were popular and helped a lot of writers I know

I can remember a couple people who watched Donahue way back

[Skittles]

15. Donahue was great

yup

[Buckeye_Democrat]

25. Anti-vaxxer Jenny McCarthy too.

Oprah’s long history with junk science: https://www.vox.com/science-and-health/2018/1/9/16868216/oprah-winfrey-pseudoscience

[appalachiablue]

36. Yup, coo-coo, dangerous stuff

[underpants]

24. Blame beef for Dr. Phil

Oprah has a show about food. There was a short film about processing beef. Oprah said, “I’ll never eat a hamburger again”. The Beef Council (big beef whatever it’s called) sued her. $3-5 million for ....I forget.

Oprah has Oprah money and she was willing to spend it as a screw you to beef. Jury trial. Dr. Phil was a jury consultant. Top top level, Oprah money level. She got to know him and thought he’d work on TV. She won the trial. She started having him on the air and then he got his own show (she owned a piece of it).

[Jamastiene]

20. ROFL! Yep.

The thought of being forced to watch either of them is pure torture. It is cruel and unusual punishment. I'd rather have my fingernails pulled out than watch either of them. Both are quacks.

[Kablooie]

8. So if a school has 1000 students, only 30 will die.

I'm sure those 30 families will understand.

How often have you seen 30 kids in a school die within a short time.
Too often.
And now Fox News thinks that's just fine.

[appalachiablue]

13. A real horror, brainwashed idiots

[StTimofEdenRoc]

9. That is because we are expendable.

That is because the Republican sheople as so easily herded by the right-wing media. Fifteen years ago, they got all whipped into a frenzy about one poor brain-dead woman (Terri Schiavo). They passed laws to take her medical decisions away from her husband to put her mother (who was obviously in denial) in charge. The Republicans were the prolife party. So, they said. Now they are willing to sacrifice millions of us, for economic reasons. They have been herded that way by their right-wing media. They are sheaple. Where is all that talk about moral relativism now? MAGA my ass.

[appalachiablue]

11. Herded is it alright, I recall the Schiavo case, if something

isn't done about rw media soon, what will happen to democracy

[underpants]

23. Schiavo was very eye opening

Watched the whole thing from here at DU. I wasn’t aware of her but both sides of the abortion issue had their Schiavo book.

Yes the RW media took their believers down an unbelievable path. Hannity was camped out in the parking lot. W can back to DC to sign something specific to her. At the end the autopsy showed what was obvious (she had a heart attack/stroke cutting off oxygen to the brain).

RW and other media packed up and left. It is almost never mentioned.

[whathehell]

16. You first, Ozzie!

This shit is unbelievable.

[enki23]

17. Fucking quack snake-oil scumbag quack fraud motherfucker

No wonder he's carrying Trumps fucking water.

[Jamastiene]

21. Yes! This.

I'm glad I am not the only one fed up with his 15 minutes.

[Buckeye_Democrat]

28. He has lots of money, so he must be a genius.

I’ve worked with many people who actually think that way! (Lots of them were Trump supporters, unsurprisingly.)

[Blue Owl]

19. Wow can I buy a monorail from this guy?

Where do I send the check?

[Hav]

22. A tradeoff some might consider

and those “some“ are sociopaths.
Come on little Pete, you've been chosen! You can die for the economy and so that people aren't bored anymore.
See, that was easy. Now, to the next class...

[ProfessorGAC]

26. A Doctor Shrugging Off 7-10 Million Deaths!

Revoke whatever license he may hold.

[Cha]

32. First Do No Harm.

[ProfessorGAC]

35. I Thought The Same, Cha

How does 9 million dead square with "do no harm"?

[Cha]

37. He forgot his oath or never really cared about it.. it's

surreal.. I know these are deadly bizarre times bc of trump.. but do so many have to foist how stupid they really are on the rest of us?

[spanone]

27. Hey Wizard of Oz....YOUR KIDS FIRST

FUCKING IDIOT

[SoonerPride]

29. I love how teachers are expendable in his world

Hey, kids don’t get sick enough to die so send them to school.

Well what about the teachers and staff?

Just let them all get sick and 1 to 2% of them are expendable?

What the actual fuck

[Takket]

30. Imagine not only wanting a Holocaust but wanting children to go first to their death...

Just to help drumpf’s re-election chances.

[SammyWinstonJack]

31. First it was old people who were expendable to save the economy, now it's school children. Whatta

great country.

[dawg]

33. What I think he meant was ...

a 2-3% increase in the number of people already dying in the country as a whole. Not 2-3% of all the children going back to school - that would be horrific.

I think he was saying that if we were losing 1000 people a day to Covid19, opening the schools might only raise that total to 1020-1030 a day, mostly from grandparents and others who could be exposed from spread amongst the students.

He's still a quack, but I don't think he intended to say something as monstrous as the way people are taking it.

[skip fox]

34. With 56 million school children, 2% deaths would result in over

1,300,000 deaths of children!

Sons-of-bitches!
