"You
Want Virus With That?"
We
just finished the
NFL draft for 2020
and
the most important
stat for any player
wasn't his size,
weight, or speed.
It was his psychological
exam.
Yes, any player who
wants to be in the
NFL has to
take a long, detailed,
psychological test. This
makes sense as no
team owner would
want an actual psychotic
loose
on the field or off.
So why don't we require
our presidential
candidates to take
the same test?
Yes, Fat Hitler needed
to take a psych exam
before we let anyone
vote for him but
you know who needed
that exam more?
The people that voted
for him.
---------------
Maybe we should begin
to reconsider electing
people, especially
to the presidency,
who essentially look
at the Constitution
and the Bill of Rights
as a dare.

t-Rump called for a National Emergency regarding the coronavirus ONLY after the
stock market began to crumble. He had been warned that the virus was coming and
chose to whistle past the graveyard instead of doing anything that would save
lives.
Again, the stock market crash is the only reason he waited so long to take action.
Though some would say, myself included, that he has YET to take action.

"The federal
response [to the
coronavirus] has
been absent or disastrous
or occasionally,
in the hands of the
president, insane." -
Rachel Maddow, 4-27-20
When a Rhodes Scholar,
like Ms. Maddow,
publicly calls a
government official "insane" one's
ears should kind
of perk up, to put
it mildly.

The Republican governor
of Texas, my great
state, is giving
the go-ahead for
restaurants, malls,
and theaters to open
this Friday. So far,
we know that Covid-19
causes strokes and
blood clots and lung
dysfunction and kidney
dysfunction and heart
damage and, honestly,
medical researchers
are only beginning
to fully understand
all the ways this
virus can hurt us.
So until a vaccine
is developed (IF
a vaccine is developed)
carry-out food, curbside
service, postal delivery
and streaming media
work just fine for
me.
Stay safe.

The U.S. has 1/30th
the world's population.
The U.S. has 1/3
of the world total
of Covid-19 infections.
Hmmm, I wonder why
we have ten times
more cases, on average,
than the rest of
the world.
Hmmmmm.
HMMMMMMMMMMM.
(There is much speculation
that the U.S. infection
rate is much higher
than the "official" number.)

GOP, 2001: "We
must use every technical
advancement, every
legal maneuver, no
matter what the cost,
to ensure that Terri
Schiavo, that cute
little white girl,
stays alive until
Jesus decides she's
served her Lord faithfully
enough and is finally
whisked off to Heaven."
GOP, 2020: "Tests
and vaccines? To
save mamaw, papaw,
and a bunch of welfare
queens? LMAO!"

Allow me to end today's
Rant by stating that
McDonald's is in
no way connected
to the coronavirus
pandemic... except
for the employees
in several of their
stores who have contracted
the disease. Apart
from that, their
food is as wholesome
and nutritious for
humans as any
other
American
fast-food
establishment.
