Some Opinions on Biden from Down Under

COME ON MAN!!, LETS SEE YOU DO SOME PUSH UPS!!!

Two most excellent reports.  A shame we can't get such intelligent dissemination here in the U.S.

And who didn't appreciate the 'comedy relief' from the reporter in the top vid who brought up 'just turn the teleprompter around, and let us read it?'  lol

Overall, the reporting from Oz is far more professional than what is presented in the U.S.

That dazed, blank expression with the squinty eyes.

Even when he's not reading off the TelePrompTer.

I've seen that look. In nursing homes - I had a NUMBER of family and relatives, over the years, wind up in those. The ones who're ambulatory but are losing their cognitive abilities, have that look.

When out scouting for a bit of ass ?

When I end up in one I'm gonna shag anything with a pulse, Might even do a couple of fat ones lol

That first video, Alan Jones...he nails it. Right in the ten-ring.

We're in a world of shit.

It appears to me that they are trying to figure out where they got lost in thought.  They know they have, but can't pull it together.

"Elder abuse."  How long have we been saying that, when it comes to allowing Slow Joe to run for President?  But as was also pointed out by the 2nd reporter, Biden ran for office knowing that his mental capacities were not intact, as did everyone around him.  

Yes, the "Bidenista" interviewers.  Apt description.  As was purposely pointing out that Biden has to ask his "carer" - oops, I mean wife - where he is every morning.  

Apparently, if we want journalists, we need to start sending the students to Oz to study.  

*As an aside, how much would you like to bet that they never participated in "Casual Fridays?"

Uh...no.

When I was ten years old, my father's mother had a series of strokes. She wound up in one for 18 months, before going the way all their patients do.

Nursing homes, in that era of fifty years ago, were not nice places. They STANK. Even new, they were disorderly, malodorous, institutional. The decor was public-school classroom, and rooms were only doubled.

And this one had been built just three years before. It was typical - wretched but typical.

When I was 14, my mother's mother had a series of strokes. She took longer to make that last sojourn - probably the better care received in a church-based old-folks' home, which was part nursing home and part assisted-living, helped. Better all around, but those weren't common then. She was lucky to have gotten in when there was a vacancy.

Twenty-five years ago, my father had a couple of massive strokes, in the space of a week. By that time, much was known about rehabilitative care, but the quack hospital tied to his HMO didn't pay for it. So he wound up in a nursing home. MUCH better, the physical plant - but the alleged-nurses were mine-ore-itty, surly, hated their patients. This is commonplace in most nursing homes in this country. Family has to watch to be sure needed care and hygiene are given - preventing bedsores, etc, or else they will happen and kill a number of residents, constantly.

And my mother was in one, briefly. Not to stay; but recovering from massive cancer surgery. It wasn't expected to cure her, only prolong life. It was customary by this time (2006) to use nursing homes for recovery of difficult patients; but once again, the blank faces, the babbling idiots. How do you get well in Bedlam?

No, I'm more aware than I want to be, about what such people are like when their brains give out before their bodies.

I might be mistaken, but IIRC, Sky News is a Murdoch company. Perhaps it was sold before Rupert retired; but it's as unconventional as FNC was, here. But so far, they've kept with the program, the winning program, of facts, first, and then, clear-thinking opinions and no bullspittle.

That won't last. Remember, Canada had a new conservative news outlet, for a year or so, also - True-D'oh had his apparatchiks order it shut down. One election gone wrong in AU and the same could happen.

And we'll all be regaled by the Corporate Globalist Mediuh - all saying exactly the same thing, word-for-WORD.

""my father's mother had a series of strokes. ""

When I had my stroke ""hemorrhagic "" I had only been home for a week from hospital, and said something my X didnt like, and she cut me loose to fend for myself, In all fairness she did make sure there was food in the house, but I had to prepare it and feed myself , wasn't a happy time lol, But what doesn't kill you makes you stronger

But at least I was a well balanced vege .I was dribbling outta both sides of my mouth
