The Thanksgiving holiday is approaching. We have much for which we can be thankful. First, our family, faith and friends. Second, our health and well-being. Third, our democracy and good quality of life. We can also be thankful for what I call the Rational Majority. Just think, without the Rational Majority a legitimate presidential election could have been overturned. We could have lost our precious democracy. Corruption would have overwhelmed the White House. Without the Rational Majority we would still be separating children from their parents at the border. The alternate version of the truth would become the Big Lie. Last but not least we should be thankful for a column like Quickly that provides us with an opportunity to sound off in a fair and balanced manner! However, a very few are convinced that Quickly isn’t fair and balanced. There is an explanation. They have rejected membership into The Rational Majority!

Thanksgiving is almost here, and we still have family members expecting to be invited even though they have refused to get their COVID-19 vaccines. Even though we have a newborn, and a toddler, and other family members with health issues, THEY think everyone else is being unreasonable by not wanting them to be included.

The intelligent solution to leaf raking frustration is for everyone to wait to rake until most of the leaves are down, then everyone rakes at once. Cities can save money by making far fewer trips. They do this in Brown County, and see leaves on the ground as picturesque fall color, not a nuisance. Who said we have to rake every leaf as it falls? It drives everyone nuts, it’s so stressful. Think about it.

If you have a problem with leaves, move to Crown Point. They pick them up every week. You do know it is almost impossible to rake leaves when the wind is blowing so hard? They have a mind of their own and are not herded like cattle. Blame the weather for blowing leaves and not the homeowner.

If you said “no” to the COVID-19 vaccine, then you said “yes” to being a human Petri dish. You are making it possible for the Delta variant to be passed along, as well as the development of future variants.

If you don’t get vaccinated for COVID-19 in Singapore, when you get the virus you have to pay for your hospitalization. Since Singapore has free universal health care they say they are going to treat you like an American, which is the biggest punishment you can give someone. We have become the laughingstock of the industrialized world.

The only programs you see come from modern day Democrats are “pay for no work” programs. They recognize only programs that pay for you to stay home and get paid for doing nothing. It’s the founding principle of all Democrats!

CVS pharmacies have announced that they will be closing hundreds of stores nationwide, leaving consumers in a bind. They want to focus on being medical care providers. Look around, we have hospitals, urgent care centers and mini clinics on almost every corner now. What we don’t have is local pharmacies to provide the medications that almost everyone needs. We have seen that we can’t rely on Louis DeJoy to get us our meds through the mail.

He ran for office and got elected because he promised to build a wall and have Mexico to pay for it. Mexico did not pay for it, nor did he build a wall. He then asked his supporters to pay for it. They donated money and Steve Bannon among others allegedly stole the money. As a parting gift, the former guy pardoned all the thieves he appointed to assure they didn’t go to jail for stealing from his supporters. Yet somehow he still managers to have supporters. This is the very definition of a grifter.

I am so very tired of stupid people. I am amazed that these people can even survive in life being this dumb. How do they hold on to a job, or pay their bills?
