The satirical site, The Babylonbee.com, is a place I go to one a week, when feeling burnt out from covering all the political misery I cover, and I am one of the least hard working journalist’s in the bullpen, so I can only guess how the others cope. Well, James seeks comfort in the bottom of a bottle, but that is not the way to go. But, really, has any paper/blog had writers so open about their flaws, as metaphors of the frailty of the human condition, such as alcoholism, mental health issues (Uncle Len), and all the rest? Talk about open disclosure!

“As COVID vaccine delivery continues to decline nationwide, Republican leaders have proposed a radical solution: a vaccination-by-mail program to cover all Americans.

“Since voting by mail went so smoothly last year, we wanted to apply those same principles to our COVID vaccination program,” said Senator Mitch McConnell. “Mail-in vaccines will ensure that we have the most secure vaccination process in American history!”

The Republican proposal is simple: every American will automatically receive a pre-loaded syringe in the mail, along with a COVID vaccine card. Individuals will then self-administer the vaccine and self-report their vaccination status, all from the comfort of their own homes.

“Everyone will be able to receive the vaccine without having to miss work to travel to a vaccination site where they will wait in line for hours,” McConnell noted. “Best of all, nobody will be subjected to any racist ID checks!” 

Democrats were quick to criticize the proposal, saying a self-reported mail-in vaccine program was ripe for fraud and dishonesty. McConnell quickly dispelled those notions, saying they were nothing more than a transparent attempt to disenfranchise Republicans from getting vaccinated.”

The point is made, that if mail in votes did not result in election fraud, then neither will vaccinations in the mail. Of course, the authorities will make a comeback with technicalities, such that vaccines might deteriorate in the post. But how about centres where people walk in, shoot up like junkies, and fill out their own vaccination passport? What’s wrong, don’t trust us?

Here are some bonus Covid funnies:
