1. Those are the rules, douche. Get in the game. Idiot. Pompous twit.

In 2021, Walsh wore a yellow Star of David (the symbol that Nazis forced Jews to wear during the Holocaust), likening individuals who refuse to vaccinate against COVID-19 to the Jews in Nazi Germany. Walsh said, "In the current context, we’re all Jews." The Seattle-based Holocaust Center for Humanity said that Walsh trivialized the Holocaust and distorted history.[6]

In August 2021, Walsh and four other state Republican lawmakers held an unofficial hearing with the aim of possibly calling for a "forensic audit" to take place in Washington State similar to the criticized Arizona audit. The group that organized the event also invited figures that have falsely claimed there was voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election.[7]

47. My mother was a Holocaust survivor. She would have been furious

At Walsh's chutzpah in comparing himself to Jews in the Holocaust.

[Solly Mack]

2. Oh, well.

[OMGWTF]

21. My USCG Reserves son had 17 vaccinations to go overseas.

[Lasher]

31. I had about a million vaccines before they sent me to Korea.

Plague is the only one that comes to mind. They used a vaccine gun.

[ShazzieB]

8. What a jerk.

Grow up, dude. Just grow the fuck up!

[monkeyman1]

22. your being polite !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ShazzieB]

25. Well, excuse me! I was trying to be rude, I swear!

[monkeyman1]

27. shit ,screwed up on that one , I do apologize ! was meaning a different way !

[KS Toronado]

32. First post that made me laugh today.

[AllaN01Bear]

9. hem.well wah.

follow the rules .

[SCantiGOP]

46. Exactly. Does he also refuse

To show his driver’s license and registration if he is stopped by a patrol car?
Being a normal member of a society is not that complicated unless you are a jackass.

[Totally Tunsie]

10. Congratulations!

You may now enjoy the Work From Home policy that thousands of others have had to endure because asswipes such as yourself don't listen to or obey the rules. How does it feel, jerko?

[Demovictory9]

11. ha ha

[SergeStorms]

17. No kidding.

Just another republican snowflake who believes rules don't apply to him. The TFG disease has completely taken over his brain, what little of it existed in the first place.

[monkeyman1]

23. they want to extend this for something too bitch about !!

P.S.. - plus add too the death toll !

[cadoman]

13. lol if he thinks that's bad wait till he learns he has to be vaccinated to vote!

I will say that Washington has its act together. We likely won't have to ever worry about the gqp there ever again since they won't follow the rules well enough to even be able to participate.

[fescuerescue]

36. could see it as a Compromise. Must have vaccine ID card to vote.

They been wanting ID to vote right?

Well here ya go!

[usaf-vet]

14. Who's fault is that a$$hole. Get your vaccine submit your proof. Simple even for the...

... the mentally challenged. Rules are rules for everyone. Simple concept.

[aquamarina]

15. Hopefully he can't access his salary either.

Poor whiny snowflake.

[GoCubsGo]

16. Boo hoo.

You're not above the rules, asshole.

[Bev54]

18. Same thing will happen in our Federal Parliament in Canada when they come back in session next month

All employees and members.

[Aussie105]

19. Names of the appropriate countries hidden in the following statement . . .

In some places, the cream rises to the top in politics.

In others, the turds too often bob to the political surface.

[monkeyman1]

24. some turd's sink to the bottom .

[Buckeye_Democrat]

26. Good!

By the way, making a new key card for a hotel room was one of the ways we'd get the attention of a guest with unpaid bills... years ago when I worked at a hotel.

They'd come to the front desk to complain that their key cards didn't work anymore, and that's when we'd give them replacement cards while mentioning an unpaid balance or a credit card that was denied.

Assuming they couldn't be reached by phone or other means, of course.

Edit: We were instructed by the owner/GM to do that, of course. I always wondered if we'd ever encounter a parent who couldn't reach their choking child in the room or whatever. Then they'd threaten to sue the hotel into bankruptcy! (Or perhaps a grifter lying about such a situation, of course.)

28. Gosh, I hope his constituents notice that he is refusing to represent them effectively.

I mean, I'm surprised he's publicizing his refusal to do his job--i.e., get vaccinated so he can access the capitol and his office--but I'll give him a few points for transparency.

[twodogsbarking]

29. You can break in. You know how.

[Dukkha]

30. we fixed the glitch

[KS Toronado]

33. I'm sure he could access a free vaccine.

So he could access his office.

[oasis]

34. Bravo!

[fescuerescue]

35. Should just deactivate all the Republican cards before a vote

Might take a few days to get cleared up.

[packman]

37. Asshole - Next appearance on Fox or OANN

Get a shot and grow up

[Heartstrings]

38. Womp Womp, covidiot! nt

[Greybnk48]

39. Good!

When my keycard doesn't work, it's usually because I'm at the wrong room, or on the wrong floor (and sadly, stone cold sober).

[spanone]

40. K&R

[Fla Dem]

41. Didn't see one, not one supporting reply to his assinine post. He's a major a-hole in WA politics.

[iscooterliberally]

42. Someone needs to sneak up behind this guy with one of these:

[sarchasm]

43. Aw muffin, bless your little heart ...

[Progressive dog]

44. That man is an idiot.

I hope he's not being paid while he refuses to obey the work rules.

[Rabrrrrrr]

45. From the same assholes who say "Don't like the rules of your job? Find another one, snowflake!" and

tell black people "Don't want to get shot, then listen to the police (authorities)".

They love authoritarianism when they're making the rules, but they melt into sad little snowflake fucks as soon as someone applies the rules to them.

I can't imagine going through life being that much of a fucking child.

[Richard D]

48. He has no idea . . .

. . . how funny this is.

[Ford_Prefect]

49. Walsh is a GOP white assho** who thinks having been elected entitles him to ignore all the rules

which of course apply to everyone else he doesn't like. He is disliked by his fellow party members in the legislature and revels in being the mean outsider who's too cool for the establishment GOP.

He is the very epitome of GOP philosophy without a clue how to carry that off with any style at all...Imagine...

[calimary]

50. EXCELLENT!

He should be down-on-his-knees grateful that’s all this is costing him. At least so far.

[marie999]

51. I am against this if it keeps him from doing his job.

Such as attending meetings in person or virtually and voting. Otherwise, I am okay with it.

[leftieNanner]

52. "Show your papers...."

Anybody else notice that he used that phrase when referring to being required to confirm his vaccine status.

He's a big baby and trying to be a martyr.

Well, Boo - frickin' - Hoo.
