Oh no, no, no, you do not get away that easy.  I think you owe us some money.

 

Whoa! Duck!

If you’re watching the senate hearings, please make sure you duck and weave because all that finger pointing can put out an eye or something.

Klobuchar is doing a good job if you have time to tune in.

 

It’s Working!

The vaccines are working, at least among the elderly.  Real world studies in England are showing stunning results.

From December until the middle of February, more than 8,000 people ended up in the hospital with covid-19 in Scotland, but only 58 of those patients came from the vaccinated group.

I’ve had both my shots – I got Pfizer – and today is my two week anniversary.  I will still wear a mask when I leave my property until you guys catch up.

I feel good, had no side effects from either vaccine, and Ole Bubba is clear, too.  We are already planning trips for the Fall, so get your shots because we may be coming your way.

 

You Can’t Make Me

North Dakota is all a’tizzy.

The North Dakota State House just passed a bill making the mandatory requirement of mask wearing illegal.

Three months ago, the virus strained the hospital system in North Dakota. The governor mandated statewide mask wearing and the number of covid cases “plummeted.”  Local officials said that was because of awareness about social distancing, not masks.

Minot Republican Rep. Jeff Hoverson, the bill’s sponsor, painted government-issued mask requirements as part of a larger conspiracy driven by “unelected, wealthy bureaucrats who are robbing our freedoms and perpetuating lies.” Hoverson said North Dakota should be free like its sister state to the south and called mask mandates “diabolical silliness.”

Okay, okay, English majors, is “diabolical silliness” a thing?  Can something be diabolical and silly at the same time, and if so, can you name one other thing that is?

Lidgerwood Republican Rep. Kathy Skroch and several other bill supporters claimed without evidence that mask-wearing doesn’t help prevent the spread of COVID-19.

You know, more and more newspapers are reminding their readers that some things are just plain silly by adding two words – without evidence. That’s a good thing.

 

One Billion Dollars

You’ve got your reading all cut out for you, Honey.

Dominion Voting Systems sued Mike Lindell, the My Pillow dork. But, ya know, there’s lawyering and then there’s Perry Mason. Whoa, these guys are Perry Mason on steroids.

It will be well worth your time to read this filing and whisper ‘oh no, Jesus’ under your breath while you do.  This tells a story that’s hard to believe and there is just no way I can condense it down for you. You’re gonna love it because it’s Republican grifting at its finest. This is grifting with glitter on it.

Have fun reading it.  They are suing for one billion dollars.  By the time you get to the end, you’re going to think it’s not enough.

Thanks to Deb T for the heads up.

Hey! Grab a Pencil!

Somebody please take a telephone message for Jim Jordan.  George Clooney called.  He’s making a documentary series about the abuse at Ohio State University.

Jim might want to put on his suit coat because there might be some things he needs to cover up and that’s a start.

Thanks to Mari for the heads up.
