Glen Campbell and Joe Biden. A Stark Contrast.

Some years back I watched a very profound docudrama on the imminent demise of Glen Campbell. If you've not watched it - do so ASAP.

Campbell - like Biden will soon be - was in the end stages of severe dementia. He didn't know where he was most of the time, he couldn't remember the names of his children, he couldn't remember the words to Galveston and other hit songs he's sung thousands of times. He needed assistance with basic necessities of life.

Yet his wife and handlers took him on a farewell tour. They put Campbell on stage before audiences who watched his performances fail miserably. And they filmed this hot mess.

What purpose did this serve? Critics howled on how this was humiliating - putting Glen on stage to fail so badly. Yet his wife and those close to him told a different story. That instead of placing Glen in a nice room in some nursing home, they gave him a great final exit to life. That even though he could not remember the words and certainly did not know where he was - he could still play the guitar. Flawlessly.

The choices they made for Glen certainly seemed to make him happy. He was born to perform and he died doing that which he loved. What they did harmed no one. I hope I die happy, don't you?

Contrast to Joe Biden.

As the whole world knows - Biden has advanced senility and dementia issues. And these issues will only get worse. And just like Glen - Joe's wife and handlers are also putting him out on stage for the whole world to see. Would a nice room in a dementia ward at some nursing home make the Biden's happy? I would think watching Matlock and having ice cream would make Joe happy. But not Jill. Certainly not Jill.

Draw you conclusions here. Glen Campbell on stage harmed nobody. His documented end of life was actually a fine tribute to a great artist.

Biden on the other hand is putting the entire world at risk. Everyone sees the daily horrible struggles he goes through and we are amazed and disgusted at what his wife and handlers are doing. Are they acting like Glen's wife and associates did out of compassion, or are they acting out of selfish ambition and dishonest gain?

Draw your conclusions here. While Glen didn't lead a perfect life (who does?) he lived and died with honor, decency and respect. Biden on the other hand has always lived a life of deceit, perversion, corruption and failure. And now he's dying - for all the world to see - the same way he lived.

America and the entire world deserves better.

I never saw Genesis or Phil Collins, but I loved their music. It’s very hard to watch someone’s demise, ala Glen Campbell.

Families should know when it’s time to protect one of their own who is going downhill. It doesn’t need to be in the public eye.

It’s really way past time for Jill to say “no more, Joe.” But she’s a gold digger and always has been.

We saw BB just about every or every other year up to about a dozen years ago, when we dropped the season tickets for the venue that we’d held for ~30 years. The last 6-8 we were going to pay homage to BB and to see the warm up acts, which were quite good. People like Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, etc.

But just BB? No.
