The appearance of the novel coronavirus and the rapidly-spreading outbreaks of the disease now called Covid-19 have required us to change our behavior in many ways. Many of those ways, unfortunately, are antithetical to the "me first, screw you" philosophy that is baked into many modern Americans. We see it every day in the form of those who reject guidance to remain home and avoid crowds - exemplified by the abysmally stupid woman who proudly tweeted that she had eaten dinner in a crowded Red Robin restaurant: “It was delicious,” she tweeted, “and I took my sweet time eating my meal. Because this is America. And I’ll do what I want.”
"I'll do what I want" is the mantra of a people to whom the freedom to "do what I want" trumps* any responsibility for the health and safety of others others, whether it's in the form of insistence on unrestricted gun rights, freedom to gather in medically dangerous crowds, or the selfish hoarding of ordinary toilet paper and other supplies.
Our pick for the award this period exemplifies the selfish, boorish attitude of those who should know better.
The Left-Cheek Ass Clown for March, 2020
is
Senator Rand Paul (R, KY)
At a time when national level leadership is a dangerous joke and too many Americans are looking for excuses to justify selfish and ignorant behavior, the performance of Senator Paul exemplifies the very highest standards of ass clownery and make him the best choice for the dishonor of the Left-Cheek Ass Clown for March, 2020.
Have a good day. Stay home, wash your hands, and behave responsibly. The rest of us don't want to die because of your stupidity.
More thoughts tomorrow, when Cartoon Saturday returns.
