Holiday Thursday??

 President Slow Joe Biden declared today, January 9th, to be a day of mourning for the death of former President Jimmy Carter. Federal Employees had the day off to mourn. I doubt that 50% of federal employees can even tell you what years Carter was the President.

This day of mourning is actually for all of the money that Biden is blowing in his last few weeks in office.

I remember the Carter years vividly. My wife and I had a new house built and the mortgage rate was 16%. The cost was over my BankAmericard limit, or I would have just saved money and put it on the credit card. A couple of years into the Reagan era, we sold that house and moved to a lower rate.

What possessed Jimmy Carter to have Joe Biden deliver his eulogy? Was everybody else on the planet busy?

Joe claims to have been "the first national figure" to endorse Jimmy in his Presidential campaign. Joe was the junior senator from the smallest state and had been in office for less than three years when Jimmy started his campaign. Joe was no closer to being a "national figure" than I was while I was managing a Waffle House in Tampa. 

Everybody talks about what a great Christian Jimmy Carter was. Then why did he want "Imagine" played at his funeral? "Imagine there's no heaven?" Really? My wife promised that there would be no John Lennon songs at my checkout ceremony.

The scenes from the California fires are horrific. So, what possessed Joe Biden to start talking about the good news he had about his first great-grandchild being born? Joe did not fly to California to see the fire damage. He flew out there because he knew his great grandchild was being delivered by c-section. Do you think that anybody who lost their home in the fire even gives a shit about any Biden kids?

 Biden did a press conference with Newsome because Newsome wasn't smart enough to lie to Joe about when and where the press conference was being held.

Hunter is the baby's grandfather. I am going to omit the crack or hooker joke that you expected here.

If I order one of those Tommy Copper compression shirts, will I be able to throw people over my shoulder, appear in movies and shoot long shots in basketball like the guy in the commercials? Sorry, I have seen that commercial too many times. I just had to throw that in somewhere.

You have to love Mayor Karen Bass of Los Angeles. She has bigger balls than even Greasy Gavin Newsome. She declared a state of emergency in Los Angeles a few days ago and then got on a plane to Ghana. 

When asked about her trip, Bass responded, "When the going gets tough, the tough get going. I'm going to Ghana." Residents are reportedly unimpressed.

I see Republicans in California's political future.

If all of these things that Biden is doing in his last sixty days are so good, why didn't he do them in his first sixty days??
