Dolly Parton tried. She gave a million dollars, sang a about COVID and got vaccinated on live TV.

 Did that help withe the rightwingnut morons(R)? Nope.

Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine
I’m begging of you, please don’t hesitate
Vaccine, vaccine, vaccine, vaccine
’Cause once you’re dead, then that’s a bit too late

She gave it a good try, a heroic try, but somehow the bonehead politicians running this state managed to overcome even the good will generated by its favorite daughter. The guv and his family got vaccinated, in private, while he read the crowd(R) and railed against the vaccination.

If you’re a regular reader here you know I’m not a fan of the low education/income South, Trump’s Bible Belt Base, whose gullible, ignorant masses suck the $$ from the treasury while putting Dotard in the White House.  And now they(R) won’t get vaccinated, for all kinds of stupid reasons.

The trouble is that not enough people want it, particularly here in the South, which accounts for eight of the 10 states with the lowest vaccination rates, and infections have begun to climb. “The rate of daily coronavirus infections in Tennessee has more than tripled in the past three weeks.

Breaking News: The S&P 500 fell 2 percent, on pace for its worst drop in months, as concerns grew about the Delta variant’s impact on growth.

I wouldn’t care about them, BUT, the gullible, ignorant crowd is pulling down the entire country now. The Dow is down around a thousand points today on fears of a ANOTHER wave, with the variant and the stooopidity of most, but not all, Republicans.

That good feeling of finally ditching the masks in public? Soon to be gone, cuz of the morons(R) in our midst who swallow the crap from FOX.

Nothing new here....
