Biden diagnosed with “aggressive prostate cancer”

Biden diagnosed with “aggressive prostate cancer”

One is never to speak ill of the dead.  That also applies to those who are gravely ill.  Even the harshest critics sincerely offer expressions of sympathy and prayers for a recovery at a time like that.  It will not be an easy or quick recovery for President Biden – and the odds are not in his favor.

The sad news does silence the criticism that has been mounting in recent days.  In a sense, Biden has against escaped to the bunker – although not by design in this case.  We saw that when CNN’s John Berman broached the subject of the accountability for those who had concealed Biden’ mental decline with a member of Congress.  The answer was predictable.  “At this time, I am just focusing on the President’s current condition.”  I am not surprised by the congressman’s response, but I was that Berman posed the question.

The criticism has been silenced out of deference to Biden and his family.  I well understand that since I sent my just completed detailed commentary on the cover-up issue to the recycle bin.  Time for that subject later.

The Issue of the conspiracy and the cover-up may be temporarily silenced but it is not forgotten.   The anger at those who so callously deceived the nation remains — and will have its impact in the future ambitions of some of the culprits.

In the meantime, we hope and pray for a recovery as we empathize with the President and his loved ones.  Most of us have experienced the fear and sadness the grips the Bidens at this moment.

So, there ‘tis.

    That’s so big and humane of you Larry. It’s rare for to show empathy in the first place and especially big hearted when the subject of your empathy is someone you despise and make no bones about your disgust for.
    Biden’s prognosis does not favor his living to see who succeeds Trump as our future president. Who knows when any of us will live our last day. You could pass in your sleep before Biden succumbs to his disease. The same is true for all people over 70.
    Which brings up Pres. Trump. On the one hand, his personality and character type create questions that deal with his mental acuity in general. To say Donald was weird and peculiar his whole life is an understatement. Now in his late 70’s this peculiar characteristic has counter productive consequences when the job of POTUS brings demands on him that bypass his ability, practical experience, knowledge and understanding of life in general, and the high degree of common sense expected of the President. As a man and as a person he does not fit the majority of qualifications required.
    His winning two elections by a vote of the people satisfied the law for electing the president, but, in three case of the people who voted for Trump, there are several variables. Sadly, the election results tell a great deal about the U.S. population’s political IQ. Whether it’s knowledge about a candidate, source of information received about the individual, or non intellect based emotion and feelings that influence one’s choice.
    For most they decide with whatever political party the person was raised with, Republican or Democrat is a cultural thing. People who change political party affiliation at some point in their life do do at a great risk of relational loss.
    Although it makes little common sense, one political party become a formative influence in their personal identity
    Ask someone who they are and identify as. A major factor is the wing in politics that is part of who they identify as.
    Had Trump come on the political stage as a Democrat. The party would not give him enough acceptance for what he wanted nor the votes for the candidacy.

    First, I wonder if it’s just a political stunt. After all Jill Biden faked cancer to remove her face wrinkles via cosmetic surgery. In case it is true, the cancer came 40 years too late. Rooting for cancer against pedo Joe. Will be looking for his obituary 🙂
