My father, a WWII vet, died last year April from Alzheimer’s.

He was my fishing and hunting partner, my friend, my hero, and the man I admired most in my life and the one I have tried to emulate as best as possible.

It is not very funny when this stuff happens to you and I hope it never happens to these worthless pieces of Dummy filth. I wonder if they would still be laughing while trying to take care of their parents as they degenerate and turn within themselves.

Sorry, but my monitor is getting foggy.

Take care of their parents! Are you kidding? They'd gift Mom and Dad with a membership in the Hemlock Society before ever taking care of them.

(I lost my Dad to Alzheimer's, too, a few years ago. He was also a WWII vet.)

My father died from a related neurodegenerative disease. Well, this little piece of Obamamaniac humor may just cost their figurehead the election and then, to paraphrase Obama’s friend Michael Pfleger, there will be a whole lot of MoveOn.org-ers crying. I actually like Henry V’s line better, with regard to the Dauphin’s mocking gift of tennis balls:

And tell the pleasant prince this mock of his
Hath turn’d his balls to gun-stones; and his soul
Shall stand sore charged for the wasteful vengeance
That shall fly with them: for many a thousand widows
Shall this his mock mock out of their dear husbands;
Mock mothers from their sons, mock castles down;
And some are yet ungotten and unborn
That shall have cause to curse the Dauphin’s scorn.

The lesson is that the Dauphin’s idea of humor (an insult intended to start a war) could easily cost thousands of lives, and “Alzheimer’s is Funny” could easily cost the phony smile and the empty suit the November election.
