FRANK ON FRIDAY – The Doofus Went Down to Georgia

You have to admit, Democrats do a great job when it comes to fixing problems that don’t exist.  End systemic racism.  There isn’t any.  Protect us from white supremecists.  Name two.  Here’s my favorite.  Save our democracy, by destroying our form of government.  We need to define some terms.  Democrats constantly rail about threats to “our democracy” although our form of government is not now, nor has it ever been a democracy.  As he exited the constitutional convention in Philadelphia in 1787, Benjamin Franklin famously was asked, “What type of government have you given us?”  He responded, “A republic, if you can keep it.”  We’ve managed to keep it for 235 years, but Democrats have decided that’s enough.  In a republic, you elect representatives to represent each district or State.  They go to Washington as advocates for the voters who sent them there.  That’s the point.  They’re supposed to carry out the will of their electorate.  Democrats oppose this system, favoring instead a system in which every member of the majority Party must vote as its leaders decree.  That’s neither a republic nor a democracy.  In a democracy, you don’t need a Congress.  When an issue comes up, you have a plebescite, and the majority rules.  Democrats clearly don’t want that either.  Take voting rights for example.  So-called progressive Democrats complain that any State law requiring that voters produce identification before being permitted to vote, is un-American, racist, undemocratic, and a remnant of Jim Crow.  They say the federal government must take over State elections to “save our democracy,” you know, the one we haven’t got.  Here’s the problem.  81% of Americans favor a voter ID requirement, including 77% of black voters and 78% of hispanic voters.  So, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi, and AOC, tell me again about our democracy.  Clearly, the progressive nuts have confused democracy with tyranny.  And the sad part is, it’s not even a tyranny of the majority, because they haven’t got a majority in the Senate.  Democrats Joe Manchin and Kristin Sinema refused to vote to end the filibuster rule that requires 60 votes to pass bills, by which Democrats hope to accomplish their unconstitutional take over of State elections.  The Constitution explicitly prescribes that the State Legislatures shall control the “time, place, and manner” of choosing representatives and presidential electors.  This isn’t a gray area, subject to interpretation.  It’s crystal clear.  What Democrats are trying to do is blatantly unconstitutional.  They’re doing it anyway.  Enter, Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden, who traveled to Georgia last week to plug the voting bills in typical Democrat fashion – with lies, threats and insults.  A year after an election in which more Americans voted than ever before, Biden has decided the right to vote is at risk.  The following are quotes from Biden’s speech.  I will provide translations of his false, misleading gibberish. “Black Americans were denied full citizenship and voting rights until 1965.” (By Senate Democrats like me who blocked every civil rights bill for 90 years).   “The United States Supreme Court, in recent years, has weakened the Voting Rights Act.” (By ending election monitoring because the problem was solved).  “Voting by mail is a safe and convenient way to get more people to vote, so they’re making it harder for you to vote by mail. (Just like in NY).  “The Bible teaches us to feed the hungry and give water to the thirsty, the new Georgia law actually makes it illegal to bring your neighbors, your fellow voters food or water while they wait in line to vote.” (If the Democrats who control the city voting sites did their jobs, there wouldn’t be lines so long that you need to bring rations, but they’re incompetent.  What law prohibits is candidates trading of food for votes.).  “19 states not proposed but enacted 34 laws attacking voting rights.”  (How? 19 States took their constitutional duty seriously and wanted to avoid a repeat of the 2020 abuses).  “Jim Crow 2.0 is about two insidious things: voter suppression and election subversion.” (Jim Crow laws were the works of Democrats.  See above.).  Then Joe Biden took a page from fellow autocrat Joe Stalin.  “It’s no longer about who gets to vote; it’s about making it harder to vote.  It’s about who gets to count the vote.  Count the vote.  Count the vote.” (Didn’t Joe Stalin say that?  Da.).  “Pass the Freedom to Vote Act.  Pass it now, which would prevent voter suppression so that here in Georgia there’s full access to voting by mail.” (The new Georgia law makes voting by mail easier than in Delaware or New Jersey).   “It would get dark money out of politics (Uh, except money from the unions and the social media billionaires), create fairer district maps and end partisan gerrymandering.” (We won’t allow any Republican involvement in drawing district lines).  “Sadly, the United States Senate, designed to be the world’s greatest deliberative body, has been rendered a shell of its former self. (We’re not getting our way).  “Let the majority prevail. (I agree.  Dems have only 48 votes. They lose).  “And if that bare minimum is blocked, we have no option but to change the Senate rules, including getting rid of the filibuster for this. (Uh, we’re still 2 votes short, even without a filibuster.  And of, course, if we lose the Senate next year, we need the filibuster.).  “The United States Senate should be able to protect voting rights by a simple majority.”  (Too bad we don’t have one.  And even with 100 votes, it’s still unconstitutional. And by the way, Dems used the filibuster over 300 times against Trump, and used it last week after 55 Senators voted to sanction Russia.  Let the majority rule, right? ).  Biden then argued that all elected officials should be Republicans.  “So, I ask every elected official in America: How do you want to be remembered?  Do you want to be on the side of Dr. King or (Democrat) George Wallace?  Do you want to be on the side of John Lewis or (Democrat) Bull Connor?  Do you want to be on the side of Abraham Lincoln or (Democrat) Jefferson Davis?”  The message was, “Do what I say, or else you’re a racist Democrat.”  Many, including some Democrats thought Biden went a bit far with the insults.  Official Mumbler Mouthpiece Jen Psaki disagreed, saying President Biden “stands by everything he said.”  As this is written, the detestable Chuck Schumer is still trying to ram through the unconstitutional election takeover.  So far, he has failed, just as Biden has failed to address any of the very real problems we face.  As usual, Louisiana Senator John Kennedy said it best.  “The Biden administration has mismanaged COVID, it has mismanaged inflation, it has mismanaged the border, and it has mismanaged foreign policy – all in one year.  If aliens landed tomorrow and said, ‘take me to your leader,’ it would be embarrassing.”

 

 

 

FRANK ON FRIDAY – It’s a Small Small World

All our lives we got up every day, went to work, and looked forward to the day when we would be able to travel the world, to see the places we’d been longing to visit.  The day would come when we wouldn’t have to worry about the kids or the bills, and we could just travel.  We had big plans.  We could spend time in Italy.  See parts of Europe we hadn’t been to.  Sail away to exotic locations like Australia and New Zealand.  I wanted to go to South America.  My wife wants to see Japan.  I don’t.  She even talked about an African safari.  The whole world awaited us.  And now that we’re at the point when we can make some of these trips, our world has become dramatically smaller.  The Wuhan virus plague has a lot to do with it.  We love to cruise.  The Wuhan hysteria first broke out on cruise ships, which coincidentally had visited ports in Asia.  Naturally, the fear-mongers found no fault with Asia.  They blamed the cruise ships.  The entire industry was shut down for more than a year.  When the ships came back in 2021, there was no problem, until the advent of Omicron.  Now we’re getting stories of hundreds of positive cases on ships.  People are reluctant to return to cruising.  I understand, but how about a dose of reality?  Royal Caribbean Cruise Line has been in the news.  Positive tests on the ships.  55 on Oasis of the Seas.  110 on Harmony of the Seas.  173 on Jewel of the Seas.  My God!  It’s another seagoing pandemic!  Except it’s not.  Everybody on these ships, passengers and crew, are tested before and during the cruise.  The worst numbers were on Jewel of the Seas.  173 positive tests represents a positivity rate of about 5%.  On the other ships, its between 1 and 2%.  Ships are dangerous?  Care to guess what the Covid positivity rate for testing on dry land was this week?  According to the CDC, 29% of those tested came back positive.  Sounds like cruising is safer than staying home.  No matter.  For the time being, cruising is out.  The Wuhan hysteria has also soured us on some of the places we wanted to visit.  We were planning to go to Australia and New Zealand.  Given recent events, I’m not sure I want to go anymore.  Our view of Australia may have been colored by Crocodile Dundee.  Australians were a hardy, boisterous, independent lot, dedicated to democracy and freedom.  That impression clearly was wrong.  As an isolated island continent, the Australian shut down of tourism in 2020 made sense.  But then, we began to hear alarming stories of repression.  Australians are confined to their homes, harassed for vaccination cards on the streets, and hunted by police if they dare venture outside without permission.  These fascist tactics worked, for a time.  As late as the end of May 2021, there were fewer than 100 Wuhan cases in all of Australia.  It took from February 2020 to late September 2021 (20 months) for Australia to reach 100,000 Wuhan cases.  A good argument for draconian restrictions?  Not so fast.  In the last 4 months, thanks to Omicron, the positive case count in Australia has reached 1.2 million.  Due to the less virulent Omicron, only 0.04% of those infected are in serious or critical condition.  By contrast, in the Obese States of America, the serious/critical count is 0.12%.  For the mathematically challenged, this means for every 1,000 people infected, 988 are not seriously ill.  So is the Australian fascism justified?  Not to me.  I won’t be going there any time soon.  How about Europe?  The travel restrictions change so often, it’s difficult to make plans.  Will they let you in?  Once in, can you come back?  Do you have to wear a useless mask?  Too much uncertainty.  But we can still travel inside the U.S., right?  Not really.  Our own country has gotten smaller.  The Blue States have Wuhan restrictions that rival those in Australia.  In New York City, while no identification is required to vote, you need 2 shots and a booster to eat at Taco Bell.  Go West?  Not that I want to go to Washington State, but try this on for size.  The Washington State Board of Health wants to enact a Wuhan protocol which would allow health officers to hold people or groups of people in isolation or quarantine.  The State could lock up citizens who fail to comply with COVID vaccination mandates.  The proposal only mentions “citizens.”  No mention of the unvaccinated illegal aliens Biden is letting in.  A local health officer could ask a court to authorize the isolation or quarantine of a citizen for up to thirty days at an “isolation facility.”  Washington is trying to recruit strike team consultants to provide “guest” transport to and from the “facilities.” “Guest” transport shouldn’t be a problem.  The Dept. of Corrections has nice “guest buses” with cages over the windows.  Disney might be enlisted to update the Washington State Anthem, “Be our guest, be our guest, don’t complain that you’re repressed …”   It’s reminiscent of the Soviet Union, which “hospitalized” misguided citizens who refused to comply.  So, Washington State is out.  The rest of the West Coast?  Oregon.  They’re crazy.  You can forget California, and not just because of the Wuhan.  There always have been safety concerns in big cities.  But now that George Soros has installed prosecutors who refuse to prosecute, and since criminals don’t go to jail, concern has become calamity.  Crime rates are soaring.  Add to this the public health crises created by armies of the homeless, who are free to shoot drugs and crap all over the streets, and California has become a “no fly” zone.  Where to go?  Chicago, Philadelphia?  They’ve become criminal hellholes.  Well, there was that safari idea.   I guess we won’t have to go to Africa to see predators in the wild.  Want to do some upscale shopping?  Keep an eye out for the smash and grab gangs.  Where are Peter, Paul and Mary now that we need them?  “If I had a hammer, I’d pick up some jewelry.”  The National Parks?  They’re under federal control, so no.  Let’s face it, it’s a small, small world.  Back to Disney again.

It’s a world of crime, and a world of tears
They have dashed our hopes and have stoked our fears
There’s so much we have lost, by the Chinese we’re bossed
It’s a small, small world

 

 

 

 

 

 

FRANK ON FRIDAY – Don’t Impeach 46

Clearly, the buzzards are circling over the White House, in anticipation of the political demise of Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden.  It’s not unexpected.  Biden’s approval ratings are in the tank, with approval hovering near 40%.  Worse yet, voters have come to recognize the obvious.  Joe Biden is mentally unfit to be president.  Overall, a majority of voters question our president’s mental fitness to serve.  This issue breaks down along Party lines, with most Republicans finding him unfit, and most Democrats pretending he’s competent.  The verdict among Independent voters is alarming, however, with Independents finding Biden to be mentally incompetent by a margin of 23%.  The Biden competency issue is nothing new.  President Trump warned us that Biden wasn’t up to the job.  The Democrats’ treatment of Biden during the campaign confirmed Trump’s assessment, as they hid Old Joe in his basement.  Once elected, the Democrat handlers have kept Biden on a short leash, doing no press conferences, and preventing Biden from taking any questions when he does appear in public.  A President seeking to avoid answering difficult questions is certainly nothing new.  President Reagan was a master at avoiding questions yelled at him by Sam Donaldson as he walked toward his helicopter.  Remember?  He’d put his hand to his ear, “Sorry, can’t hear you.”  Classic.  Biden is different.  He doesn’t just say, “I won’t be taking questions.”  More than once, he’s told reporters, “If I take questions, I’ll be in trouble.”  Which begs the question, “From who?”  And it’s not as though any of the lap dog media members will ask a hard question.  We know Biden can’t catch up to the fastball, but it’s obvious he can’t even hit the softballs served up by the media sycophants.  Biden is being handled. That wouldn’t be so bad if the handlers themselves were competent.  They’re not.  Biden may be mentally incompetent, but the puppeteers pulling his strings are politically incompetent.  Whoever is working the switches behind the curtain has bungled everything, and then left poor old Sleepy Joe out there to take the rap.  Our borders are porous, and they want to pay illegal aliens hundreds of thousands of dollars in reparations for illegally entering the country.  They threw away energy independence, gasoline is up 60%.  They closed the Keystone Pipeline, and now they may close a second major gas pipeline.  Inflation is out of control.  The retreat from Afghanistan was a debacle.  Republicans have long been calling for Biden’s impeachment or removal.  Ted Cruz wants to impeach Biden for border policy and Afghanistan failures.  Senator Lindsey Graham also supports impeachment.  Senator Rick Scott said, “After the disastrous events in Afghanistan, we must confront a serious question: Is Joe Biden capable of discharging the duties of his office.”  Congressman Ronny Jackson, a former White House physician, has repeatedly suggested invoking the 25th Amendment.  Jackson tweeted, “Biden is very OBVIOUSLY mentally incapable of leading during a crisis.  Something MUST be done!” The 25th Amendment allows the vice president, a majority of the president’s Cabinet, and two-thirds Congress to vote to remove a president whom they determine to be “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office.”  Democrats tried to use it to remove President Trump.  Nancy Pelosi wanted Trump removed because she said the drugs he was given for the Wuhan virus left him in “an altered state.”  Since the 25th Amendment requires a majority of a president’s own cabinet to declare him unfit, it’s employment by political opponents is highly unlikely.  Joe Biden faces two problems, however.  First, Biden didn’t choose his cabinet, his handlers assembled the cabal of extremists, nuts, and incompetent progressive near-do-wells that more resembles the Star Wars bar scene than a presidential Cabinet.  They don’t answer to Joe, but to the handlers who sold Joe Biden to us as the moderate who’d return us return to normalcy.  Secondly, Joe really is mentally incompetent.  More than once, he’s come to the podium and asked, “Why am I here?”  Good question.  Cognitive tests of the elderly typically ask the subject, “What year is it?”  This week, without being asked, Joe Biden proved he doesn’t know.  January 4th, Joe said, “Schools can and should be open this winter; we have all the tools to keep kids safe.  There’s a lot of reason to be hopeful in 2020.”  The reactions from Republicans are not surprising.  The trouble for Biden is that the questions about his competence are now coming from Democrats as well.  Journalist Al Hunt of the CNN Capitol Gang now admits Biden’s time in the White House has been plagued by “stupid miscues” and “fumbled” opportunities, and notes that prominent Democrats now have a sense of unease regarding whether the president is competent enough to do the job.  The competence issue really flared with Afghanistan, and the failure to anticipate the speed with which the American-backed government and military collapsed.”  Glad you just noticed Al.  A group of 124 retired U.S. military admirals and generals signed a letter questioning President Biden’s fitness for office long before the debacle in Afghanistan.  Now, as the 2022 mid-term elections get closer, the drumbeat for Biden’s removal will only grow louder.  Democrats would be perfectly willing to continue to ignore Biden’s failures and mental deficits if they could get their way.  That’s the idea.  The progressive nuts propose their ruinous programs, and then they have Joe to take the blame.  But now Joe Manchin has killed Build Back Better, and indicated he won’t vote to end the filibuster.  The nuts aren’t getting what they want, and in November, they will have to face the voters.  The pressure on Democrats to remove Biden will only become greater.  Blame Biden for everything, and get rid of him.  I have a different take on this.  Mad Maxine Waters spent 4 years yelling, “Impeach 45!”  I say, “Don’t impeach 46.”  As bad as Biden has been, better the imbecile you know than President Cackling Kamala, and a new vice-president, if any.  I say, “if any” because –  back to that pesky 25th Amendment again – the appointment of a new vice-president requires the votes of a majority of the House and Senate.  The Senate is now 50-50.  In the event of a tie vote, with no vice-president to break the tie, what happens?  Nobody knows.  Without a VP, next in line is Nancy Pelosi.  So don’t impeach 46.  Keep Old Joe locked in the White House basement.  If nothing else we’ll save fuel and wear and tear on Air Force One.

FRANK ON FRIDAY – I Surrender Dear

If you don’t like something you hear Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden say, don’t worry.  Just wait a day or two, sometimes just a few hours, and he’ll take it back.  As the end of 2019 approached, President Trump was riding high.  We had full employment and increasing wages.  More women and minorities were employed than ever before.  Crime was down.  Taxes were reduced, and businesses were moving plants back to the U.S.  We had finally reached energy independence.  Instead of buying oil from Mideast bandits, we were selling oil and gas abroad.  Gasoline was about $2 a gallon.  Heating fuel was cheap.  The border was secure, with hundreds of miles of beautiful wall having been constructed.  Our military was fully funded and respected.  China, North Korea and Iran were in check, and $50 to $60 dollar a barrel oil deprived Russia of the revenue it needs to do mischief.   President Trump spent his time pardoning people who had received excessive sentences.   Trump revamped our trade pacts, and slapped China with tariffs to deter its blatant theft.  That last thing is probably what got him in trouble.  The Chinese don’t like being told they’re thieves.  It’s not a false accusation, mind you, because they are thieves.  They steal every industrial secret they can get their hands on.  They ignore patents.  They manipulate their currency.  They dump their goods on the market and manipulate prices.  They’re the most arrogant people on Earth, bristling at any criticism and issuing threats and insults.  And all the time, their military is preparing to take over the world.  Donald Trump was the only president in recent memory who wasn’t either making money in China or taking money from China, which permitted him to stand up to the Chinese, and they resented it.  So against this backdrop, pardon me if I can’t accept the arrival of the Wuhan virus, just in time for the 2020 election, as a coincidence.  I’ve recounted all the things mentioned after the second sentence of this piece to make a point.  But for the Wuhan pandemic, Donald Trump would still be president, and the unpleasantness of the past 11 months would have been avoided.  Above, I recounted all the things that were going well under Trump.  I defy anyone to convince me that any of the conditions that existed under Trump have in any way improved under Biden.  Oh, I’ll give Biden one, he doesn’t have to pardon criminals because we no longer arrest and prosecute criminals.  Aside from that, gasoline is $3.50, the economy is a shambles, relations with our enemies a shambles, relationships with our allies a shambles, the border a shambles, inflation and the supply chain, shambles, shambles.  Are you sensing a theme here?  We were told we had to take Biden because Trump wasn’t telling us the truth.  Biden would restore faith in the government.  Really?  Are you paying attention?  The truth is now irrelevant, and faith in and respect for the government, or any part of it, has never been lower.  And with good reason.  Candidate Joe Biden’s premier appeal to voters was pandemic politics.  Biden claimed Trump lied to us when he said the virus would fade away.  “He didn’t follow the science.”  Trump did say that, but here’s the funny part.  Trump said it when that was the message being spread by Dr. Fauci, “Nothing to fear here in the U.S.”  “No need to wear masks.”  And that same Dr. Fauci is the “science” upon which Biden relies.  During the campaign, Biden repeatedly promised, “I won’t shut down the country, I’ll shut down the virus.”  Biden said he had a plan to end the pandemic.  So how’s Old Joe done with that?  Let’s see.  With no information about what was a new virus, no vaccines, no PPE or ventilators, and few therapeutics, at the end of Trump’s term, there were 8.8 million active virus cases in the U.S., and some 400,000 deaths had been attributed to the Wuhan.  Biden, after three vaccines, an abundance of anti-bodies from previously infected people, warehouses full of PPE and ventilators, a better knowledge of the disease, new therapeutics, and a year to get ready – drum roll – 13 million active Wuhan cases, and more people have died in 11 months than in the entirety of Trump’s presidency.  As candidate Biden, Sleepy Joe lambasted Trump for a shortage of test kits.  As President, although his own people recommended that production of test kits be ramped up in the Fall, Joe refused, and people are waiting in line for hours in the cold, just to find out if they’ve got Covid.  Newly inaugurated President Biden assured us that the only way to deal with Covid was to implement federal mandates for masks and vaccines as conditions for travel and employment.  I guess that was his plan.  What happened?  Things only got worse.  As the weather got cold, virus cases jumped up, and more people needed medical treatment.  That became a problem, as Biden’s mandates had resulted in the firings of thousands of health care workers, not to mention police, fire and military assets.  But you’ll be happy to know none of these problems are Biden’s fault.  We know this, because Old Joe told us that the other day, speaking to the Governors, “Look, there is no federal solution.  This gets solved at a state level … and it ultimately gets down to where the rubber meets the road and that’s where the patient is in need of help, or preventing the need for help.” (If you can figure out what that last part means, drop me a line).

                       Biden’s statement was regarded as a rare truthful utterance by some, coming as it did from the man who blasted Trump for not solving the problem he now says is not a federal problem.  The statement, however, caused panic in Biden’s camp, where the careful nurturing of Covid as a political tool is of the utmost importance.  Somebody must have asked, “uh, Joe, if there’s no federal solution, what happens to the federal mandates we’re now in court trying to justify?”  The message was received, because the day after officially surrendering to the virus, and as though he had never said, “no federal solution,” Biden bragged about a “federal plan” to address the growing omicron surge.  I don’t know whether Biden changed his mind or lost his mind, but one thing is evident.  Clearly, Joe Biden’s not in charge.  That would be bad enough if he hadn’t become the mumbling mouthpiece for a bunch of radicals and usurpers who can’t even agree on which lie to tell, and then stick to it.  Even the lying lapdog media can’t put enough lipstick on this pig to make it presentable.  Happy New Year.

FRANK ON FRIDAY – Covid Carols

If they weren’t so tragic, the foibles of the Biden Administration would be comical.  Biden has botched everything he’s touched.  Now it’s Christmas.  This should be a freebie for Joe Biden.  I mean, how can you screw up Christmas?  They decorate the White House, they light the tree, the President mouths some platitudes.  It’s the one thing a President should be able to do without being criticized.  Presidents normally issue a Christmas message.  Here’s part of Ronald Reagan’s 1983 message, “In spite of everything, we Americans are still uniquely blessed, not only with the rich bounty of our land but by a bounty of the spirit—a kind of year-round Christmas spirit that still makes our country a beacon of hope in a troubled world and that makes this Christmas and every Christmas even more special for all of us who number among our gifts the birthright of being an American.”  Wow!  This week, Corrupt Demented Imbecile Joe Biden issued what will be considered his Christmas message.  It was a message about the only issue hysterical Democrats care about, the Omicron Covid variant.  Biden promised Americans, “We are looking at a winter of severe illness and death, if you’re unvaccinated, for themselves, their family, and the hospital they’ll soon overwhelm.”  Fa, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la.  It warms your heart, doesn’t it?  Here’s the official White House Christmas card –

Now, I’m not trivializing the Wuhan virus problem.  It’s just that the apocalyptic fervor over Omicron doesn’t add up.  The virus mutated into a variant that is more contagious and less severe.  In a sane world, where natural immunity and herd immunity still existed, that would be a good thing.  Our world is not sane.  Simply put, the panic over Omicron is manufactured.  There are more than 10 million active Wuhan cases (positive tests) in the U.S.  Of these, 0.15% are in serious or critical condition.  Don’t take my word for it.  Dr. Marty Makary of Johns Hopkins said there is “a pandemic of lunacy” over the Omicron variant, which he called, “omi-cold,” a mild illness.  Joe Biden has a solution though.  Keep pushing the vaccines that haven’t prevented new positive tests among the vaccinated, and, wait for it – more testing.  Trust Joe to do the wrong thing.  People who are sick should have access to tests.  But as Dr. Makary has noted, testing asymptomatic people just feeds the pandemic of lunacy.  The NFL figured this out last week.  Faced with scores of otherwise perfectly healthy players testing positive, they changed the plan.  Stop testing players with no symptoms.  Fewer positive tests equals less disruption and hysteria.  Biden’s announcement, making 500,000,000 free tests available is a hypochondriacs dream come true, which can only hamper an already subpar economy.

Things are getting bad for Biden.  In the face of people waiting  hours in the streets for a test, even CNN and PBS are suggesting it’s Biden’s fault test kits weren’t ready.  Biden denied this in true Biden fashion.  He said, it’s not a failure because Omicron appeared  overnight  (Uh,  November 8) .  There was “a big rush for tests, and I knew that was coming.”  When asked why it took so long, Biden said, it was “unexpected.”  So that explains it.  It happened overnight, but he knew it was coming, although it was unexpected.  The torrent of Biden gibberish, when coupled with his “winter of illness and death” holiday pronouncement, convinced me that we need to adapt old holiday favorite stories and songs to reflect Biden’s Covid Christmas.  Here are a few.   First that holiday classic, Charles Dickens’, A Christmas Carol.  The narrator begins, “Joe Biden had lost his marbles.  There is no doubt whatever about that.”  Ebenezer Scrooge then is visited by the Ghost of Joe Biden’s Marbles, who quietly mumbles, “Alabaster Scrooge.  You will be haunted by three spirits.  One – the ghost of Christmas Past. B – Joe Manchin.  And then, the, uh, uh, you know, the thing.  Uh, why am I here?”  Then they could remake the A Charlie Brown Christmas show.  I can just see the Peanuts gang singing in front of a roaring fire –

Omicron is here
Democrats all cheer
Fear for all, close the mall
Waste another year

Virus in the air
Havoc everywhere
Mask your face, just in case
And keep six feet clear

We should update other Christmas carols to fit the pandemic of lunacy too –

Rockin’ around the vaccine site
It’s the two step vaccine rock
Booster One, then booster Two
And it all sounds like a crock

Have yourself another Wuhan booster
Hope your heart’s okay
From now on you’ll do
Exactly what we say

No rest ye worried citizens
There’s cause for more dismay
It seems that Doctor Fauci
Has cancelled Christmas Day
To save us all from Covid’s thrall
What more is there to say
Oh Winter of illness and death, illness and death
Oh Winter of illness and death

Oh come Doctor Fauci
Joyless and depressing
Oh come he, oh come he
on TV again

You’ll be home for Christmas
Get the jab for free
Please have zinc and vitamin D
And vax cards on the tree

And finally, that timeless classic, The Twelve Months of Biden

In the first year of Biden, this is what we see,
Twelve months of mumbling
Afghan disaster
China a-laughing
Nine-fold inflation
Eight Hunter artworks
Psaki a-spinning
Six spokesmen lying
Five dollar gas
Four hundred thousand dead
Three weak vaccines
Too much bullshit, and
A moronic cackling VP

So, during this festive holiday season, please heed the guidance of the Biden Administration.  Even if you’re not sick, get tested.  If you do come up positive, you can quarantine and you won’t have to visit your relatives.  And protect the environment.  If you absolutely have to breath, try not to do it near anyone else, and whatever you do, don’t exhale CO2. Otherwise,  Merry Christmas to all, and to all a, uh, uh, well, you know, the thing.  Why am I here?
