BY GEORGE, I THINK WE'VE GOT IT ..... MAYBE-PROBABLY

With Apologies To Professor Henry Higgins

by Bob Walsh

It seems distinctly possible that Oxford University has grabbed the big brass ring.  They have developed what appears to be a very workable vaccine against Covid-19 that produces a "rapid and robust" action, with a major rush of both antibodies and T-cells in the test subjects.

It has thus far NOT been tested on the very young or old farts.  That will be coming up next month in a major study of 30,000 plus.  

Now, this could still turn to shit.  I am old enough I remember Thalidomide.  That being said, this is looking VERY HOPEFUL.  

Wouldn't that be a hell of an October Surprise?.
 
EDITOR'S NOTE:  But it will be too late to save the Trump presidency.

I disagree Howie. That's what October surprises do.......sometimes.

Thanks, Bob for the good news first thing this morning.

However, the Doom and Gloom editor has spoken again. Just like the fake news polls that he so willingly posts.

Now the Never-Trumper New York Times is posting the addresses of people/Journalists they don't like in an effort to instill fear. It's working.

A Rancher in Texas knows how to flatten the curve again.

Horse manure may protect us from the Corona Virus 🦠 ...
~ Take fresh horse manure & rub your hands with it. It has the following actions:
1. It prevents you from touching your nose, eyes, mouth.
2. People will keep at least 6 feet away from you.
3. No one will want to shake your hand.
4. You will safely wash your hands well, before going to lunch.
~ We promise, it works.

Less than a 1% fatality rate for those who contract it. Of that 1%, well over 90% are people with compromised immune systems...people with other major health problems and/or those of us over the age of 70.

So let's just shut everything down, destroy our economy, and force everybody to comply with orders that are mostly ineffectual and totally unnecessary. Protect the weak and vulnerable. Assist them to isolate and/or self quarantine. Hamstringing the other 99% of our citizens...driving hundreds of thousands of people out of business with these draconian shut downs...accomplishes nothing.

Trey, there you go again. For someone as smart as you, you really say some stupid things with your love affair of our idiot president.

First of all, every poll just cannot be fake. If you believe that every poll unfavorable to Trump is fake, then you are just as delusional as he is.

As for that possible October (vaccine) surprise, that is good news if it happens. But if it does and the COVID-19 pandemic is still with us, it won't make a dime's worth of difference as far as the election is concerned.

Here are some October surprises Trump needs. Iran declares war on the US and sinks one of our aircraft carriers. Another 9/11. A pre-corona economy. A really serious scandal involving Joe 'White Obama' Bide. Solid evidence that Biden is unfit to be president.

I'm not saying every poll is fake but it's been proven that most news outlets lean left. Yet you continue to use polls that they publish. This year nobody can predict the Presidential Election. 2020 is an enigma because too many unpredictable things have occurred.

You better hope President Trump is re-elected because I predict the alternative will lead to civil war on a scale never seen before. Your Never-Trumper rhetoric doesn't help. That's right, you did profess to be a Never-Trumper and you believe I say stupid things?

Why don't you rename this blog The Doom and Gloom Gazette.

Yes, I am a Never-Trumper for good reason. Nevertheless, I will vote for the idiot.

Howie needs to look up the definition of the word "never."
