The Incompetents Parade!

Strike Up The Band – Here Come The Losers!

Led by the attitude-twirling Atlanta DA Fanni “Wha’chu Lookin’ At” Willis, lyin’ and testifyin’ from the Witless Chair on national TV, the last few weeks, even months, have brought us a gaudy parade of screaming incompetents.

Morals, knowledge and respect for the law aside, Miz Willis, in a candid display of truthfulness, let the Court and Country know her advanced edjumakashun did not include sufficient in-depth examination of World Geography enabling her to determine accurately precisely which Continent she was in or had possibly visited with Lover-Boy-Under-Contract, Nathan Wade. One might say she was incontinent. Aruba, West Indies, Barbados…Continent? What? Hemisphere? What? If your practicing attorney, how comfortable and confident might you be with her representing your case if details might extend beyond city limits?

Watching the performance of the Defense attorneys for Trump’s associates was just as revealing. Clarence Darrow, Perry Mason, Vinni Gambini  they ain’t – but their fees suggest they think they are!

Then there’s the judge, Scott McAfee, a New Boy to Fulton County Superior Court. Appointed just over a year ago, he is now “overseeing Georgia's sweeping racketeering case, in which Trump and 18 co-defendants were indicted by a state grand jury in August and face criminal charges for allegedly attempting to overturn the state's results in the 2020 election…”. Thursday’s opening session with a surprise visit from testy defendant Fani, showed the judge procedurally wimpy, failing to rein in Willis and her commandeering of the judge’s court. At times, it appeared lawyers were being double-teamed by a tantrum-throwing Willis and an interposing judge who wouldn’t permit several of the most penetrating questions. Considering the implications, a seasoned jurist might have been inclined to run a more lenient ship. 

Of course, noted Parade Leaders Biden & Harris continued to dazzle with their gaffs, grunts and babbles, defying the expectations of what voters want from “Leaders”.

President “Let’s Go Bandon’s” Cabinet members continued to provide Jello-solid performances:

Anthony Blinken (SoS) racked up more Frequent Flier miles adding to his Frequent Failure record in negotiating peace-loving agreements among the Middle East combatants;

 Janet Yellen (SoT) continued to heave smoke grenades into public discussions defending her first-hand obliqueness and bloviating talents “mixplaining” the financial policies trampling the budgets of ‘ordinary’ Americans like a scene from “Yellowstone”;

Lloyd Austin (SoD) continued his intermittent commute to Walter Reed ER and ICU for poorly unexplained medical complications connected to his previously mysterious unexplained ‘emergency’ stay allegedly connected to a problem in his nether regions. Or is that ‘neither’ regions? Whatever - espirit de corpse among the Military is lower than a fox hole;

AG Merrick Garland continued not prosecuting, not processing, not practicing daily duties remotely resembling the job description of the AG. He was presented the Alfred E. Neuman “What? Me Worry?” award from the FBI-CIA-NSA ‘Three Eyes’ Sub-Committee for his flaccid and feckless job performance;

Pete “Mayor Pete” Buttigieg  (emphasis on –butt) (SoTrans) brought up the rear, so to speak, maintaining his invisibility and ineffectiveness established back in East Palestine, Ohio, at the nation’s larger metro airports and along the Interstate Highway infrastructure. His actions and comments on matters of national transportation issues continue to amaze the uninformed. Only his lengthy vacation leave has left his LGBTQ admirers breastless.

As 2024 continues to unfold, the track record of those parading before us, fulfilling their roles as ‘elected public servants’ will continue to unfaze and whelm. Still unnoticed by the majority of voters is the fairy tale fallacy of the coming elections November 5^th   and the steadfast belief THIS time it will be different. THIS time, Lucy will not snatch the ball from Charlie Brown. THIS time, the competence, dedication and integrity of a fresh batch of savvy politicians will replace the sorry lot of losers in the Incompetents Parade these last 4 years. Sadly, THIS time that famous bridge and adjacent water-front property will be bought and sold again and again whenever the tide goes out; the disappointment of the “average” voter will sink to a new low.

But who doesn’t love a parade? Bread! Circuses! A Big Yellow School Bus!!

Stay with me for election returns later this year.

On with the Parade!
