Shall We Dance?

“Shall we dance?” ‘governess’ Deborah Kerr once asked ‘King of Siam’ Yul Brynner. This, of course, was back in the days before dancing became Miley Cyrus-type Twerking.

There’s something about dancing that unleashes joy in the human heart

Back in the long ago days of the 1956 film, ‘The King And I’. Back in the day when any mayor who even hinted at banning dancing would have been run out of town on a rail—even if the mayor was running the show in Control Centre Washington, D.C. There’s something about dancing that unleashes joy in the human heart. “Mayor Muriel Bowser on Wednesday would not say whether she would allow people who are fully vaccinated to dance at weddings and other celebratory gatherings.(Fox News, May, 6, 2021)

“Beginning May 1, the Democrat began allowing "multi-purpose facilities and venues" to host "weddings and special non-recurring events" at 25% capacity.

“Allowing” is a big word like ‘marmalade’ in Democrat lexicon.

A loaded question from which Bowser merely danced away

“However, the mayor's April 26 order that outlined the new guidelines specified that "standing and dancing" at such events would not be allowed.” (Fox)

My usually inebriated Uncle Jimmie excepted, how many people at weddings are seen sitting silently or even lying on the floor?

“Bowser appeared on CNN, where she was asked if she would reconsider allowing fully vaccinated people to dance as long as they wear masks. Bowser didn't budge. (Fox) "We're absolutely considering opening more activity as case rates go down and our vaccination rates go up," Bowser said. “Fox News reached out to the mayor's office to ask on what science the mayor based the decision to ban dancing for fully vaccinated people.”

A loaded question from which Bowser merely danced away.

“According to guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, fully vaccinated people "can gather indoors with fully vaccinated people without wearing a mask or staying 6 feet apart.” (Fox)

Democrat-run cities getting more openly hostile by day

Meanwhile, in all Democrat-run cities getting more openly hostile by day, the ‘Can’t-do” list is growing faster than Topsy. You can’t dance to celebrate your son or daughter’s wedding even while fully vaccinated. You can’t peck your dear grandma’s withered cheek; can’t chat with a neighbor over your own backyard fence; can’t hug a child who fell off of their tricycle on the sidewalk in front of your house—and no one can see an encouraging smile from any of those hiding behind a COVID face mask. Small human things that made life on Earth worth living are not there anymore. Dancing, like singing in both choir and the shower are verboten in the Biden-Harris run Obama Land. Shall we dance? Dance up a storm even if it’s alone in your own kitchen. Pray on the first evening and morning star as you look up to the sky, breathe in the fresh air. Live the life the Creator gave you, smile as much as you can, and don’t give Democrat goons trying to frighten the very wits out of you a second thought. Shall we dance?
