shared blame

 

Comrades,

You have to hand it to our Great and Glorious Leader for this oh-so reluctant offering: "I'm certainly sorry that we haven't been able to achieve the marks that we had hoped for at the beginning of this year. Of course I am." Apart from it being gobbledygook, it's also 'shared blame'. Really sorry that we have been unable to get the marks, of course we were hoping for better, so that means everyone's to blame, right? including you, yes you, and I'm sorry about that.

Well, I'm really sorry too old mate Scotty, but you don't get it, do you? It's your clusterfuck, and not only do you have to take care of it, and mop the fucker up because it is your fault, but you also have to own up to it. Jesus, Mary and Joseph. You can't go around blaming the public servants, when the poor bastards down at ATAGI are only doing their jobs as per the well established protocols and not making up policy on the run, which is the job of Govt. And at the moment, the Govt has but one job. The clearly demonstrated Miracle of Modern Medicine has come up with vaccines aplenty in a staggeringly short period of 12 months, so where's the difficulty here, ScoMo? In a world awash with vaccine for those who can afford it, how come you backed the wrong horse? Appalling mixed messaging killed the poor ol' Astra-Zeneca stone dead in the water despite it being a very good vaccine indeed, and just how much cold hard cash did QldUni burn through coming up with what an apparently brilliant vaccine with one fatal flaw - it tends to return positive AIDS tests? You could measure the money lost on that little one alone in the multi-millions - there were 51 million doses of that failure on order. But if it was just a petty argument with Pfizer over money, for fuck's sake, we are an affluent nation and can afford it. This "vaccine hesitancy" nonsense is an enormous barrow load of horseshit; Australia is one of the most vaccinated countries on the entire planet. God Help Me.

At least Captain Corona, Lt. Gen. J.J.Frewen, was speaking truth to power and had no trouble not beating around the bush chasing his own tail by saying in reply to the plaintive cry from the Ruby Princess for truckloads of more vaccine to be rushed to that hell hole - south west Sydney: "The Commonwealth does not have extra doses of the Pfizer vaccine to distribute". Yet, the next day, the Minister for The Sick managed to pull thousands of extras out of his arse, oh that's right, he was merely re-distributing them. Frewen is by all reports the dude getting the gear into chemist shops, where they should have started organising the cold logistics a long, long time ago, with big signs out the front screaming Get Your Free Covid19 Vaccine Here! No Waiting No Delay! 99% protection against death! Works in 14 days! Absolutely Free!

While State Premiers front the media microphones almost every day, ScoMo takes the "I refuse" position on leadership - glibly deflecting everything...you know, it's OK, nothing to see here, we'll vaccinate our way out of trouble, sure thing, don't you worry about that blah blah...And then there's the PM's grammatically incorrect bogan corker "we will be living life different at Christmas than we are now." How so, ScoMo? How different? How much worse? Vaccinate, schmackcinate; with 39.5% of the Strayan adult population now having had one dose, we remain on par with that utter shithole - and so sorry to pick on them again - Mississippi.
