Speed Bump by Dave Coverly for October 24, 2020

You’re having the wool pulled over your eyes.

I thought ewe all only read Flocks News.

Nobody who’s ever had to actually deal with sheep would believe that thing that’s disguised as a sheep. Sheep are dumber than chickens f’gawdsake, and they ARE herd critters.

“Shear Bliss Ale”. :-)

But he won’t watch Wolf Blitzer.

HA! Most end up at the bottom of the cliff……

Unfortunately, most of us don’t read multiple news sources: we tend to stay in our silos.

The internet doesn’t help. News services and most sites run on advertisement. Advertisers know that if you like what you are reading, you are more likely to buy their product. So bots are designed to figure out what you read most and serve you up more of the same.

I trust the liberal media very little, Fox News even less and social media not at all. However, even I have to go out of my way to look at Fox articles for two reasons: “Know your enemy” – need to know what the propaganda of the right looks like – my Trumpian neighbors quote it verbatim and sometimes even have to consult their phones for what they want to say – and to confuse the bot so it gives me a more diversified view of the news.

Which is more than one can say for the mass of American sheeple

It’s not “bad rap” it’s “bum wrap” and yours will be unwrapped by the shears.

The problem is the news sources have become the sheeple.

They are all republicans!

After he explained it to me, I feel sheepish!

He’s so fake even the wool he’s pulling over your eyes is 60% polyester!

Sometimes I check out the Drudge Report…for sheep thrills.

Wall Street has neither bulls nor bears, only sheep.

Saw a sheep die of a heart attack from running ahead of a vehicle, because it was too stupid to turn off the roadway. (I wasn’t driving.)

But we can’t count on you, you put us to sleep.

They all drink the same beer, though.
