That's not like you to take a comment so totally out of context, Cookie. My comment pretty clearly related to a health issue and nothing to do with anything else. I was speaking of his early battle with a debilitating stutter and how he committed himself to overcoming such an debilitating ailment - which was inspiring. It's an ailment that many in our community struggle with.
I was attempting to explain from a medical standpoint why he behaves at certain times as he does and how that is not an indicator of dementia. Very disappointed you sought to resort to a put down (la la land) Cookie when I was simply explaining a medical fact which had nothing to do with politics. In fact, you shocked me.

Anyone who says his cognitive decline is anything to do with his 'stutter' is kidding themselves. And some.
If the Dems were to win, Harris will be in the #1 spot by mid next year.
And she's more left than Sanders.
Er, dude, I think you should read my post properly. I made no connection between alleged cognitive decline and speech impediments. As for being left of Bernie, I'm not sure about that.

Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Mav - 10-13-2020
If she’s further left than Bernie ... Good Heavens ... that would mean she’s like Paul Keating or Bob Hawke! How appalling!
Next thing you know, she’ll bring in a single payer system like Medicare as those Commos did (with a hat tip to Gough’s Medibank).
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - capcom - 10-13-2020
No question Sanders is far left, way more so than Biden. Sanders just scares the hell outta me.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Mav - 10-13-2020
I can accept that knee-jerk reaction from an American but not an Australian. Malcolm Fraser would have been far too left-wing for the US. And there’s no way a Trade Unionist would have been considered for the top job. And Jacinta Ardern would be as radioactive as Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez.
It’s totally bizarre for an Australian to be having nightmares about the possibility of a single-payer healthcare system ...

Not that you know or care, but I have an opinion.

What did Dirty Harry say about opinions?

Well, that's cause for hope!

Hey Baggers, apologies if you are personally offended but I did not intend to do that. I think la la land was an expression you yourself used so I didn't dream you would take it as a put down, which it was not meant as. The main purpose of my post was to make it clear that I don't agree with any moral preening of Joe despite his past speech issues and his struggle to overcome them, which I acknowledge. I simply don't rate or respect the man.
Re: Trumpled (Alternative Leading) - Gointocarlton - 10-13-2020
Given my disillusionment with state and fed politics here, I don't follow US politics at all (other than the rubbish images splattered over the news services every night). I don't even follow US sport as I find it abhorrently stupid and boring. So correct me if I am wrong, but is the general consensus essentially that there are two candidates running for President of the US that basically you wouldn't feed?
