Who is the real idiot?

Dear “Get your head out of the sand” contributor: I would like you to pull your head out of your bottom. Answer me this, Batman. How come when every Republican who has won the presidency is illegitimate, Democrats complain about it from sunup to sundown. Reagan was an idiot. Bush was an idiot. The other Bush was an idiot. Trump was an idiot. Trump was only an idiot with his tweets. The economy and America ran like a fine-tuned machine when he was in. So, we would all be thankful if Trump were in office now because we wouldn’t be dealing with Afghanistan, China and every other malady the Biden administration has gifted us with. Democrats have called every Republican president an idiot, and now you’ve really elected one.

What’s wrong with these idiots

I laugh at all these idiots holding their signs against the mandating of the vaccine. Just go get the shot. It’ll protect you, and people around you, and your family. How stupid are these people? I think it should be mandated, and if they don’t get the shot, they don’t work. They don’t go into stores. They don’t go anywhere. See how they like that. And no help, either. No unemployment. No help from the government. See how that helps. You know, too many people out there think that the government is trying to control you with this junk. If they want to control you, they’ve got your phones. Everyone’s got one of them. It’s just ridiculous. We’d be over this if people just got the shot and masked. We had polio and all these other diseases, and they had to get the shot. We get flu shots for the kids for schools, and they’re worried about this one. What’s wrong with you idiots?

Invisible retirement

Thank you Mayor Ann Taylor for cutting the fat from the Waukegan police force. Now that our invisible police chief is retiring, maybe we can arrange to pay him an invisible retirement.

Fine them

In the state of Illinois, stores and businesses require people to wear masks. If they don’t, they should be ticketed. Give them a $100 fine. See how they like that. I can understand if they forgot it, and they go back out and get it. But for people who just walk through the store without it totally is unbelievable. The store should kick them out. The store should put somebody at the door and say, no mask, no coming in. This other idiot states he does not want to help get rid of this virus. We’re not the United States because every state does everything differently because of some idiot governor that thinks that he can run his state the way he wants. So, make everybody wear it. If not, fine them.

Who do you call?

Does anybody know who you call if you know that your neighbor’s got a pot-growing operation? Who do you call?

Praying for Biden

President Biden is going to be able to pick a new Supreme Court justice because Justice Stephen Breyer announced he’s stepping down at the end of this term. I hope he does a better job than he did when he picked his vice president. We all walk around in fear and trembling that something will happen to President Biden, and that Kamala Harris will be installed as president. Wouldn’t that be great. Every conservative in America praying that he doesn’t die before his term is over, even if he is the worst president we’ve ever had. So now he gets to pick a Supreme Court justice.
