Weekly Posting of the Conservative Cow Doctor

Old Timers

Gary hauled a month-old calf with a broken leg to my clinic with the fracture likely the result of an inattentive mother. We usually flank these calves, and stabilize the fracture with towels, a PVC splint and duct tape but this calf slightly outweighed Gary. After Gary flanked him, the calf jumped up and took Gary for a bumpy belly ride inside the horse trailer, twice. I could have helped wrestle, but then there would be no doctor to apply the splint. Gary has sired a couple able bodied twin girls who are strapping high school athletes, so while watching Gary sweat under the strain I asked, Where are the twins? I bet they wouldn't t have let the calf get away. Gary agreed, so I suggested next time he stay home and send the calf with the twins.

All cowboys reach the age where their offspring are better hands than are they. You know you have reached that point when you pull up to a neighbor s branding and the calf wrestlers look past you to see if you brought your twins. Another indicator your cowboy sun is setting is when rather than roping or wrestling, cow bosses hand you a pencil and a flap torn off the Ivermectin box and ask you to tally the steers and heifers. This makes you part of the event but safely out of the way and this brings me to my point.

Outliving your usefulness is also rampant in politics as evidenced years back when Senator Strom Thurmond celebrated his 100th birthday while still in office. Senator Thurmond could not rope or wrestle, so at committee hearings he was handed a pencil and carboard box flap and was asked to tally who had already spoken. He retired in 2003 at 101 years of age.

The most recent example of this fading away syndrome occurred last week when former President Obama was invited to the White House to celebrate the 12th anniversary of Obamacare. Even though the Not-So-Affordable-and-Not-So-Caring Care Act birthed the disastrous healthcare system killing Americans with the Covid con, Obama was championed as a deity. While ex-President Obama was high fiving his swooning supporters in the media and the ruling class, President Biden was seen in the background aimlessly wandering the stage alone. He appeared to be clutching his pencil but had lost his box top and seemed confused knowing he was supposed to be tallying something. Democrat revolutionaries who shanghaied the 2020 election should really have chosen a more astute puppet. President Biden is destroying America and everyone but him knows it.
