Flugennock's Latest'n'Greatest: "A Great Day For America" (or, That Aged Well)"

From Mike Flugennock, DC's anarchist cartoonist - [for the record, I don't necessarily agree w/ his cartoons]

"A Great Day For America" (or, That Aged Well)
http://sinkers.org/stage/?p=3266

Late this past spring, even while the Delta Variant was spreading in 
Europe and elsewhere, Gropin' Joe went on TV in the White House Rose 
Garden, pulled off his mask and declared the pandemic over, calling it 
"a great day for America" — following later this summer with what had 
to be the weakest, most pointless COVID vaccine policy ever. Regular 
testing and a mask  requirement? That's it? Not "get vaccinated or get 
fired"?

Needless to say, the Washington Post and crew were right on top of it, 
cranking out articles about how wonderful it is to be re-emerging, to 
go back to "normal", sometimes vaguely insuinuating that people still 
wearing masks in the grocery store were "the new weirdos" — as opposed 
to the knobs who thought they were being muzzled and forced to breathe 
their own CO2, who were last year's weirdos.

Yeah... that sure aged well, didn't it? Seems that Biden & Gang are 
employing the same strategy Trump did after the last election.
