On Thursday, Mitch McConnell was asked about the sluggish Covid-19 vaccination rates among his fellow Kentuckians -- and why he believed it to be the case. "I'm perplexed by the reluctance of some to get vaccinated, totally perplexed," he said.

 Oh really? Let me help.

Maybe just maybe -- and I am spitballing here -- the relentless efforts by former President Donald Trump and his Fox News cohorts to question the severity of the coronavirus, scoff at medical guidance on mask-wearing and cast the whole response to -- and vaccination for -- Covid-19 as an issue of freedom as opposed to one of public health might have something to do with it? 

Maybe it’s cuz Trump, with a major assist from the likes of Carlson and others at Fox News turned vaccination against a virus that has killed more than 600,000 Americans into a political issue.

Duh, ya think?

While Trump and his family have been vaccinated, and he was treated with top of the line medical help when he got ill, he has only tepidly recommended vaccination for the gullible, ignorant sheep who hang on his every word, while his party, and their voice, FOXLies, have actively campaigned against inoculation.
Ya think maybe that has something to do with it, McTurtleface?

Because I'm sorta stuck in an Anti-Bush rant.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D99NHb6B03s Can you imagine all those rapper stars with these things? Of course, they'd have to have theirs with 'da bling! Can't be standard, gawd no! And of course, Britney's gotta have one in her car. Paris with her pooch totin' one on the red carpet at some fete. The boys in 'da hood will have a field day on their daily drive bys. P Diddy will wear his on a chain around his neck. You suppose there will be special pockets made in jeans for these things? Trailer trash folks will have 'em camouflaged. Jeff Foxworthy will have to come up with some fresh Redneck stuff. Think George W. will get one, each for the twins? Don't forget Dickie boy for those spur of the moment huntin' trips. Of course Ma Babs will have hers with pearls. Think it will affect the Royals? I can imagine Charles and Camilia on their fox hunt...........ah yes, and Prince Philip, too, must include the...

Not sure why,

BUT, am still wearing the necklace. Has been a tradition, for over 30 years, to wear the necklace, 'for awhile', until I lose the feeling, of the beach, in Mexico. Can't say why, but, still have it on. "Tis a sad day, when I take it off, and am not ready to go there, yet. Don't ask. 'Tis an old tradition...

You think the Repub brand is tarnished now?

Just wait 'til Bonehead leads us all over the cliff, to save his 2% buddies having to pay a little higher tax. The Pubs keep thinking the American public is stupid, and they can get away with their phony political crap. They keep forgetting we're not all a bunch of FOXNews sheep, who'll swallow whatever swill is shoveled to them. A once proud party, like a beast in it's death throes, striking out to harm whatever's close, threatening to shut the gov't down, (again), over the debt limit, which is just paying the bills they already ran up. Political hacks, pretending to be patriots. So sad...
