Yeah, the whole “a parasitic worm ate part of my brain” story was pretty weird coming from Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. So, let’s celebrate it with music. The internet told me that RFK, Jr. received an honorary doctorate degree from a college in Florida, which means we can call him …
Sadly, the internet was wrong!
Internet wrong? That usually never happens. But in 1999, Florida Southern College gave RFK, Jr. a citation, not an honorary degree.
A citation for what? Jaywalking? Still, that’s good enough for me to call him Dr. Worm. It’s kind of ironic though. He has railed against the COVID vaccine and most other vaccines. Anyone up for polio? So, what’s the alternative for the COVID vaccines? Here’s what RFK Jr. has suggested.
The ironic part of this is that Ivermectin is a livestock de-wormer, and RFK Jr. still ended up with a brain worm. Thanks, but I’ll stick with medical science as I say …
The weird thing is that people are now linking his admitted memory loss not to the part of his brain that the worm ate, but to mercury poisoning.
You may remember her from a recent post of mine where she played Art Garfunkel to Lisa Rubin’s Paul Simon. Anyway, she’s not making this up. RFK Jr. himself has admitted mercury poisoning as far back as 2004.
His candidacy is certainly mercurial today as people either love it or hate it. More importantly, that allows me to close this post with a great song originally from Graham Parker and The Rumour. Here he is more recently with The Figgs singing about mercury poisoning.
