MC is a part of the 3% of American's that can't admit Biden is in serious cognitive decline.

amazing really,  everyone has a cognitive decline over time but as you reach your late 60's and 70's it's like falling off a cliff.   my old man whose 75 will readily admit that no one his age should be president.

Well since they both suffer from the same thing, two peas in a pod or between both their ears

What's really funny is MC thinking he was watching it live, unedited from one if his favorite socialist networks...... 

They likely started his speech with dopey gropey doing 100 push ups and some tricky math.

:lol:

Biden's is significantly worse than most.   I know plenty of very sharp people in their 70's.

My old man said the same thing the other day.  And he makes Biden look like a mental toddler.

let’s be honest though.  Biden running wasn’t his doing.  He was bullied into it to save his kid and reputation.

Effects everyone differently and at different progression rates...   Joe seems to be going down hill extremely fast..

Remarks by President Biden at a Congressional Tribute Ceremony for Senator Robert J. Dole

DECEMBER 09, 2021SPEECHES AND REMARKS

U.S. Capitol
Washington, D.C.

10:28 A.M. EST

THE PRESIDENT:  Vice President Harris, Speaker Pelosi, Majority Leader Schumer, Minority Leader McConnell, members of Congress, distinguished guests, but most importantly, Elizabeth and Robin — I know this is not easy.  Thank you for letting us do this.
 
We meet here in the very heart of American democracy, the Capitol of the United States of America, to receive a hero of that democracy for a final time: Robert Joseph Dole.  He belongs here, in this place, in this temple of liberty — to liberty and to — temple to possibilities.
 
Bob Dole loved this Capitol.  It’s where he served the nation, shaped by the figures that surround us: Washington and Jefferson, who set us on our path; Abraham Lincoln, another man who — from the Heartland of the country from whence he came; Bob’s hero, Dwight David Eisenhower; Martin Luther King, Jr., whom Bob helped pass legislation honoring the great civil rights leader with a federal holiday — Bob stood up and got that done; Gerald Ford, who served here and with whom Bob sought the vice presidency of the United States.
 
In a sentence: Bob belongs here.  He too was a giant of our history — and that’s not hyperbole; it’s real — of wit and grace, of principle and persistence, of courage and conviction.
 
I had the great honor of serving with Bob, as many of you around this casket have.  I served with him for 25 years. 

He did have great wit.  They once asked him why in God’s name did he vote to continue to fund Amtrak.  He said because if he didn’t, “Biden would stay overnight and cause more trouble.”  (Laughter.)  I commuted every day.  (Laughs.)  It’s a true story.  He was the deciding vote.

Well, you know, Bob and I — like many of us here — we disagreed on a number of things but not on any of the fundamental things.  We still found a way to work together.

We genuinely — we genuinely respected one another as colleagues and as fellow Americans.  It was real; it wasn’t fake.  And we became great friends.
 
And because Bob deserves the final word, I’d like to read a portion of his final message that he left to the country that I hope we all listen to in the days and weeks and months to come. 
 
And I quote Bob Dole:
 
“I cannot pretend that I have not been a loyal champion [of] my party, but [I’ve] always served my country best when I did [it] so first and foremost as an American.”
 
“When we prioritize principles over party and humanity over personal legacy” — when we do that, we “accomplish far more as a nation.  By leading with shared faith in each other, we become America at its best.”  He went on to say, “a beacon of hope, a source of comfort in crisis, a shield against those who threaten freedom.” 
 
“Our nation has certainly faced periods of division.  But at the end of the day, we have always found ways to come together.  We can find that unity again.”
 
And then the message said, end of message.
 
My fellow Americans, America has lost one of our greatest patriots.  We may follow his wisdom, I hope, and his timeless truth.  But the truth of the matter is: As divided as we are, the only way forward for democracy is unity, consensus — the only way.  May we follow his wisdom and his timeless truth and reach consensus on the basic fundamental principles we all agree on.   
 
May God bless Bob Dole.  May God bless America.  And may God protect our troops.

I think Tools would be defending the old hack right now though because, you know, "Go Team!!!"

Slinger would too as he weaved a vortex 14 pages deep  :lol:

Slinger’s vortex rides, while paling in comparisons to Neal’s were epic!  Tools brought repugnance and stupidity.

”Aggressive liberal”.  :lol:
