A doctor that can’t recognize Joe has dementia is incompetent. Just sayin.
My grandmother had Alzheimer’s in her last year or so in a SNF (Skilled Nursing Facility after years in an ALF in Saratoga) so I also know the difference just don’t respond to those idiotic comments and pettiness, especially from people like this Russian rat who hasn’t demonstrated any cognitive ability at all.
Show me the guy who is mentally stronger in their 70s. It’s biology. Fish Oils and superfoods can only do so much.
But while you don’t need it or care I applaud the comments and introspection. Know you’ve had the humility and occasional empathy. When I get after you it’s almost exclusively been to put your mind outside your specific experience, if you applied what you know from personal experience to areas you are less intimately familiar with I think it would open you up tremendously-less cranky more optimism.

A major weakness of mine is I use **tard wayy too much. And should know better my mother “ran” (from an HR oversight perspective from hiring through administration) a facility in Newark NY for the state for a couple of years in my single digit age and I spent a ton of time there hanging with many of the patients and played a part in their lives for the better I think.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
It was the worst time of my life. My mom passed away quickly, she never woke up from open heart surgery. My dad died in tiny little pieces one day at a time. I use to get the biggest kick out the fact he didn't know who i was but up until the end he always knew who Tugger was. I still miss my dad to no end. Every Christmas eve at my sisters house he was just so happy to be surrounded by all his grandkids. He personified what the greatest generation was all about. I just wish he didn't have to suffer the way he did. i snuck a bottle of beer into his room one day. He could not eat any more but he drank the bottle down and said that was a good beer. It was the last time i ever remember him being happy.seacoaster wrote: ↑Wed Mar 02, 2022 7:50 amMy mother in law was diagnosed with this, and her four daughter suffered grievously from the non-recognition.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
Well folks, here is my opus on Joe’s speech: He’s not a public speaker.
This speech was a missed opportunity. He did not emphatically address what the TDS crowd always tells us, that ‘democracy is in peril blah blah blah’. I guess that niche part of his voting bloc is already so brainwashed, that perhaps he doesn’t need to beat that horse any longer, but good speeches always give some red meat to the base. In this instance, he failed.
He also missed on the entire Ukrainian issue. Yes, he addressed it, but did anyone walk away being moved by those comments?!? He called the Ukrainians ‘Iranians’. That is the number one talking point this morning and last night,
Honestly the best moment of the entire speech was when he spoke of his good son, Beau. Any listener can be moved by what was an obvious bond that he had with Beau, who tragically was taken by cancer. Skipping that moron MTG’s heckling, Joe’s one brief reference to Beau was moving.
The media, who obviously are beyond partial to every Democrat alive, even they couldn’t hide their blasé attitude post-speech. As a result, and because many Democrats are hysterically over-emotive, they are attacking Jake Tapper this morning for not being soft enough on Biden. It really is an amazing thing to read the left when they are irritated by journalists who USED TO BE DNC STAFFERS for not being soft enough on their own team. I mean, seriously?! Republicans would give their right arm to have a softball interviewer.
Maybe it’s me, but the Democratic Party has some of the most annoying characters in the country. Anyone who thinks Eric Swalwell isn’t an annoying arse is simply not willing to admit the obvious.
Amy Coney Barrett is hot af and could be on the cover of Vogue if she wanted. Man, a total dime.
Milley should not be there. He should be at the Pentagon every waking hour right now.
All in all, a totally subdued affair. Joe can’t address the massive problems in America right now like crime, inflation, and the stock market. But Americans know what’s up, and what’s down. His timing was awful, but it’s important to remember that he’s responsible for anything that happens on his watch.
If the election was today, Republicans would win in historic routs. Last nights Texas primary showed incredible Latino support for Republicans. Uh oh….

Law breakers
POTUSA Biden, correctly so, pointed out the illegal stuff, our previous "administrations" and members of Congresss have been doing , as he said....for over 100 years. But, the pretends just let the killing machine industry cut corners, "save" money.....and build our stuff with slave laobr instead.

are we wrong, to focus on this 100 years of illegal activity?

(when you break the law, it IS illegal, yes? )
When we use taxpayer dollars to rebuild America – we are going to Buy American: buy American products to support American jobs.
The federal government spends about $600 Billion a year to keep the country safe and secure.
There’s been a law on the books for almost a century
to make sure taxpayers’ dollars support American jobs and businesses.
Every Administration says they’ll do it, but we are actually doing it.
We will buy American to make sure everything from the deck of an aircraft carrier to the steel on highway guardrails are made in America.

Re: The Biden - Harris Era.
The Germans were "authentic in his convictions" during WW2 too. It doesn't mean the convictions should be pursued or celebrated. Ukraine and infrastructure were the smart choices to footstomp. Biden knows he has support on both sides for those.MDlaxfan76 wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 11:01 pmwell, I dunno about that hyperbole, but I do agree that the actual messaging was excellent, and he clearly believes what he says deep in his bones.DocBarrister wrote: ↑Tue Mar 01, 2022 10:13 pm One of the best starts and finishes of a State of the Union speech I’ve ever seen.

Biden's skill set is not rhetorical delivery, as he stumbles on words due to his stutter issues, but anyone fair minded knows what he's saying and that he's authentic in his convictions.
Right or wrong on any particular policy. Authentic.
I do agree that the beginning and ending messages were particularly strong. and a bunch of "unity" moments throughout. That was clearly the primary theme.
Ukraine is clearly a unifying issue...and the wrap up echoed those themes very strongly.
youth, I think we saw a genuine Biden, including as you may or may not recall, his view on policing. He rejected from the outset the phrase "defund the police" when it first began to be used. Not who he is. Reform, train, innovate, sure, but all of that requires money and commitment. That's where he was then and now.
I think it was smart politics to go there as it's definitely uncomfortable for those who'd embraced the term to hear that rebuke, but they also know that he cares about the equity and justice issues and believes they are critical to address.
Indeed a whole lot of the messages were aimed squarely at the voters who have felt that Dems were out of touch with them, Build in America, bridges and roads, rural issues, Wall Street control and lack of competition, immigration reform and secure borders, public safety.
The pathway to normalization from the virus, caring about kids' mental health and education, opioids, whole lot of issues that are responsive to folks' concerns.
Sure some nods to progressive issues, but speaking primarily in the language of the middle class worker and family or emphasizing the issues that have broad national support.
Even when he took a partisan shot, "no more infrastructure weeks, we will have an infrastructure decade", he made an effort to thank the Republican support in specific for the infrastructure bill.
Good stuff.
Regardless of one's political persuasion, we really do need to find ways to unify and commit to improving the country together. so, a speech like that, emphasizing those themes, should be embraced.
The bright spot from my perspective is at least he wants to fix what he has watched/helped break for the past two years. The mental illness and rise in drug abuse due to covid falls at the feet of politicians on both sides who enjoyed the control of our citizenry over the past few years.
Unfortunately for Joe, he can talk about all these topics but they are all periphery. Skyrocketing inflation and bare shelves are what's dragging him down, and what voters are confronted with on a daily basis. Biden "I did that" stickers are popping up at gas stations and grocery stores all over Maryland. A state that went for Biden easily in 2020. Biden's still got a lot of digging to get out of this hole.

I’d agree with this.
The two punchlines that got the most applause, getting kids back in school and funding not defunding the police, are Republican issues which Democrats have been on the wrong side of for two years. Kind of a slap at the intelligence of Americans.
Not sure this was the speech either JHU72 or MD are wishcasting.

I'm an actual Republican, not a Trumpist-style troll.
I like Biden best when he communicates with the center of the country, in language and themes that bring people together. In that sense, he crushed it last night IMO.
HUGE contrast with the garbage the trolls on the hard right continue to spew. I watched some of the various coverage post speech and subsequently. The folks at CNN and MSNBC were mostly ok with the speech, a couple of critiques, Hannity and that total a-hole Levin were quickly unwatchable.
I think that's what Biden needs to do, move the middle of the country forward, not kowtowing to the hyper elite progressive side. Drives the hard right crazy...
And yeah, I think that's the authentic Biden. He certainly leans well progressive, but he's doing so from a perspective that is center of the country.

Really? That's not you Kram.
Two years? How long has he been in office, Kram?
Did he accomplish anything you appreciate this past year?
Have there been some unusual challenges?

If you’re a Republican and that’s a huge IF, you seem to have kind words for only-maybe two Republicans in the entire country!!
That’s not relevant tbh. What is relevant is you somehow skip blithely past the part where Joe Biden has approval ratings at 37% today…is it your impression that the majority of rhe country has it wrong, but you have it right? Are you aware of inflation? Crime? Do you feel that the millions of parents who object to the woke insanity of our schools are under some sort of mass hypnosis performed by Sean Hannity? Do you believe Joe took care of business in Afghanistan properly? Does he bear any responsibility for global disorder today? Is immigration under control? Are you confident in his team dealing with Taiwan? Why did he green light Nordstream 2? Maybe he’s the Russian agent you’ve been referring to?
