Lisa Boothe’s ‘Middle Finger’ To Vaxx Won COVID, Lost The View

Remember Fox News contributor Lisa Boothe boasting about her refusal to get vaccinated as “a giant middle finger to Joe Biden's tyranny?”

Boothe gave her “giant middle finger” to Biden during an October appearance on Fox's “Unfiltered with Dan Bongino” show, not long after her own colleague, Neil Cavuto, had fallen ill with coronavirus and made a plea for everyone to get vaccinated. Without even a get well wish for Cavuto, Boothe said about her anti-vaxxism: “I'm doubling down as a giant middle finger to Joe Biden's tyranny because now it's a fight for freedom.” She chuckled when host Dan Bongino replied, “I want to recommend the double-barreled middle finger, it's twice as effective.”

Well, now Boothe has reaped what she sowed. Earlier this week, she revealed she has COVID, though without the nerve to actually admit it:

Add me to the natural immunity club. The initiation sucked, but the worst is behind me. 🙌

Later, Boothe tried to justify her decision, even as she made it clear she’s pretty sick:

What is the point of mandating a vaccine that doesn’t stop the spread of COVID?

I understand why people don’t want to get COVID. It sucks, but it’s just so contagious it’s kind of inevitable. How much of society do you want to destroy for something you are likely going to get no matter what precautions you take?

Boothe also lost her chance to replace Meghan McCain as the conservative cohost of The View as a result of her refusal to get vaccinated.

Boothe just wants to use it as a talking point… "This violated my Contitutional Rights! on her regular gig…

she always impressed me as an intelligent person, and now she shows that she knows how to navigate unecessary dillemmas foisted upon the principled by the abandoned, disorganizing elements in life as well

800,000 plus dead is the official figure so far but the numbers based on average death rates over the last 5 or 10 years provide even higher tolls. Those exercises take account both of willful under-estimating (as in Florida) and of people who died for want of care because the hospitals were overwhelmed by Covid.

It’s galling to recall how the GOPers went into a towering rage over 4 Americans killed during a surprise raid at Benghazi. I guess it’s the rank hypocrisy that riles me the most.

I don’t think Boothe had the job clinched at any point. The article this post linked to indicated she was only in the running but was taken out of consideration over her refusal to get the vaccine.

So I’m not sure how much she really wanted The View job.

800,000 dead – sure to go over the million – and these whackjobs still don’t get it. This Boothe woman must be kicking herself all the way home. The View job would have been worth megabucks AND given her a chance to escape the RWNJ media bubble… maybe even a real job somewhere.

Well, uh…..It works just fine for those who get vaccinated with the aforementioned ‘vaccine’.
