Asking, Not Playing 20 Questions

Behold, my variation of 20 questions.

1 — Is anyone else concerned over reports that a Los Angeles school gave a 13-year-old COVID vaccine without his mother’s permission, then allegedly used a bribe of pizza in an attempt to keep him from telling her about the jab?

2– Do you agree with me (as posted here previously) and a Rabobank analyst (writing yesterday) that with each fresh national humiliation Joe Biden is looking more and more like Jimmy Carter, the last one-term Democratic U.S. President?

3 – If Omicron is a highly transmissable, yet mostly harmless COVID variant, doesn’t that help us toward herd immunity, thereby cutting back on the need for vaccines and endless booster shots?

4 – Speaking of COVID, do you find it at all heartening that un-elected, self-appointed vaccine czar Bill Gates is saying now that perhaps the “acute phase” of the virus pandemic might come to an end in 2022?

5 – Are you shocked to read that CNN, the most busted name in news, had to fire Chris Cuomo for journalistic lapses and now is facing allegations that host Don Lemon was tipping off Jussie Smollett that Chicago police weren’t necessarily buying his lynching story?

6 – Anyone else notice that White House mouthpiece DisinJenuous Psaki has the same eyes as described by the Quint character in the movie “Jaws” when he said sharks had “lifeless eyes, black eyes, like a doll’s eyes.”?

7 – Should we be relieved by a United Kingdom assertion that the rise in heart conditions among young men is not due to COVID vaccines, but rather is “post-pandemic stress disorder”?

8 – Somehow we all should relax now that CIA chief Bill Burns says his spy network (which advised Joe Biden Afghanistan would not fall quickly to the Taliban) says there is no evidence that Iran is weaponizing its nuclear program?

9 – Are you shaking your head over news that a grocery store in San Francisco has had to install gates and fencing inside the store to make smash-and-grab looting more difficult for the looters?

10 – Can we in the U.S. be far behind the path mandated by the New Zealand prime minister who said that there would be no easing of the COVID vaccination push until all residents have been jabbed – repeatedly?

11 – Have you heard that the Quebec Maple Syrup Producers, the so-called Canadian OPEC of the stuff that tastes so good on pancakes, has had a release from its strategic reserve to cope with shortages?

12 – What does it mean when Food and Drug Administration has asked a judge to give it 75 YEARS before it must release data concerning the Pfizer COVID vaccine?

13 – Are hate crime charges in the future for the man who allegedly set fire to a Christmas tree outside the New York City offices of Fox News?

14 – Should we laugh or cry when Pfizer tells us we need only three of its jabs to neutralize the Omicron COVID variant, the one with extremely mild symptoms and few if any resulting deaths?

15 – And what should we make of over 120 children in Vietnam being hospitalized in the wake of being given a Pfizer COVID vaccine?

16 – Why did it take so long for Clueless Joe Biden’s Marxist nominee for comptroller of the currency to withdraw from consideration in view of the reality that she had no chance of confirmation due to some Democrats joining Republicans in refusing to approve?

17 – Did you know that Dec. 7 was both the anniversary of Japan’s sneak attack on Pearl Harbor and the end of the annual Medicare open enrollment period?

18 – Has anyone else noticed that New England, sans defending Super Bowl champion Tom Brady, has the best record in the NFL’s American Football Conference at 9-4?

19 – Should we be bored that the SEC once again looks poised to claim the top level college football national championship and likely it will be two SEC teams – Alabama and Georgia – who will meet in the title game?

20 – Where does everyone want to go with Brandon?
