lifted the shelter-in-place order for Georgia, save for the obvious exceptions of people with any sort of immunocompromised circumstances (or the morbidly obese, for some reason).\u00a0 I\u2019m actually amazed that Bubba has (or more realistically, someone in his office has) enough common sense to have any exceptions at all, since he\u2019s doing his very best to kill as many Georgians as possible, it seems.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">In spite of the fact that coronavirus is going absolutely nowhere, hasn\u2019t slowed one bit, and has statistically reached the point where more Americans have died from coronavirus, than Americans killed in the Vietnam War (over 50,000).\u00a0 Also in spite of the fact that his lord, savior and god-king, the Baked Potato in Charge has publicly lambasted him numerous times by name at this point, I\u2019m getting the sense that Bubba\u2019s good ol\u2019 boy pride is kicking in at this point, and despite the fact that he has no dignity to begin with based on how much teat-suckling he\u2019s done to the Potato administration, I think he\u2019s making a gamble to demonstrate what little cojones he\u2019s got by continuing to double and triple down on his choices to kill Georgians.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">The latter is actually very amusing to me, and I love the optics of Bubba acting like a kid who\u2019s mom is pissed at him, and trying so hard to drag in straw men arguments and deflect as much criticism as he possibly can.\u00a0 All while the Baked Potato in Charge continues to rain haymakers on him from Washington, continuously using his full name to draw emphasis in front of cameras of national networks, deliberately making sure that everyone knows who the country\u2019s biggest clown is right now and how it\u2019s not himself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">I have this escalating fantasy that this pathetic feud is actually making Georgia Republicans disenchanted, or at least very confused on whom to support, between the head cheese of the state, or their god-king in the Baked Potato, and it\u2019s going to be like a lion in a herd of gazelle, where they don\u2019t know who to throw their allegiances to in future elections, become overwhelmed, and then don\u2019t act at all, allowing all the gazelle to escape safely, which in this analogy means defeat for the clowns.\u00a0 But politics is anything but prone to fantasy, so even in spite of this, I can\u2019t imagine racist Beckys and Trents still won\u2019t vote red just because they don\u2019t know how to do anything else.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Anyway, in news that kind of came out nowhere on the other hand, Bubba Kemp\u2019s office has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wsbtv.com\/news\/local\/atlanta\/teens-temporarily-no-longer-required-take-road-test-get-drivers-license\/3HA5IYP2JJFJ3BF7PHY76YXO2U\/\">decided that it\u2019s no longer necessary for teenagers to take road tests anymore<\/a> in order to acquire their drivers licenses.\u00a0 Obviously, this is a frightening decision, that further feeds the narrative that Bubba is really trying his best to kill Georgians, because the last thing the state needs on top of coronavirus, are 15 and 16-year olds being given drivers licenses without formal testing, and hitting the roads.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Sure, it\u2019s listed as \u201ctemporary,\u201d but if people don\u2019t think there will be a massive uptick in licenses being acquired suddenly, they should have their heads examined.\u00a0 Behind the wheel training and testing isn\u2019t free, and when it\u2019s no longer going to be required in order to get a license, pandemic or not, people will flood the DMVs or DDSs or whatever they\u2019re called, in order to get their licenses as cost efficiently as possible.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">I can see that the alternative to testing are signed affidavits from parents or instructors that these snot-nosed teens have completed 40-hours of behind-the-wheel supervised training, but much like Bubba himself, there will be countless frauds taking place, or ambivalent parents who just want their kids out of their hair who will sign whatever they want, and then there will be tons of inexperienced teenage shitheads flooding the streets, because they\u2019re already out of school, gas prices are low as shit, and they have literally nothing better to do.\u00a0 Suddenly giving them the opposite of shelter-in-place, and the immediate freedom to hop in cars and drive means they\u2019re going to lose their minds and drive like unleashed assholes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">Georgia is trying really, really hard these days to take the title of being Florida, away from Florida itself.\u00a0 They\u2019re still a long way from accomplishing that, but I can\u2019t imagine that there\u2019s been many threats as valid as Bubba Kemp \u201cleadership\u201d has been lately.\u00a0 Regardless, I can\u2019t help but feel a degree of shame and embarrassment to admit that I live in Georgia, given how much stupidity has been emanating from my state\u2019s leadership these days.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;\">I\u2019ve actually been giving it some thought, how I genuinely think that if the day comes that Bubba Kemp is actually defeated in the next election, I would actually expend the effort and money to preemptively renew my license, just so that I could get a nice fresh copy of it, that would be without Bubba\u2019s signature on it.\u00a0 I was disappointed when my previous one expired and I was forced to get a new one, and I saw his disgusting name printed on my legal identification.\u00a0 I would, be that petty.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In news that just
