He had a recent heart attack & was right back on the campaign trail ... I’m guessing his docs weren’t happy with that. He doesn’t look as vigorous to me as he did when he ran against Crooked.

I sure hope so. Some overstressed Orlando resident was threatening to shoot up the police department in that town because the city’s shutdown was taking away his work. I think he won’t be the only one to get seriously angry at this.

Of course, Nancy and the pols have guaranteed USG paychecks and most of them - certainly her - are wealthy anyway.

Now this idiot is up spewing his nonsense. He wants nothing for corporations. MORON, and if they go out of business, where will people work?

Wait a minute, I’m not think clearly, that is exactly what this imbecile wants, Americans not working, dependent on the government.

At their respective ages and , in Biden’s case, clear health and cognitive issues , Biden and Bernie are both prime candidates for a stroke. Biden most of all.

Even though the rats got many goodies they just aren’t giving Trump a victory

On this issue, the act of blocking it actually gives Trump a victory. Because he looks like the guy fighting to help people and the dems look like the people who will prevent help going to Americans out of spiteful partisan politics.

Pelosi created a scenario where either way, Trump wins. The only hope she has is if New York bursts into corona-flames and she can blame him for it. She needs rivers of blood in the streets to save her from this stupidity and she's very hopeful it will happen. Scum.

I was reminded of this quote today. It is more apropos today than when it was written. (I haven’t picked up a Chesterton volume in years, maybe I should):

“A generation is now growing old, which never had anything to say for itself except that it was young. It was the first progressive generation – the first generation that believed in progress and nothing else…. [They believed] simply that the new thing is always better than the old thing; that the young man is always right and the old wrong. And now that they are old men themselves, they have naturally nothing whatever to say or do. Their only business in life was to be the rising generation knocking at the door. Now that they have got into the house, and have been accorded the seat of honour by the hearth, they have completely forgotten why they wanted to come in. The aged younger generation never knew why it knocked at the door; and the truth is that it only knocked at the door because it was shut. It had nothing to say; it had no message; it had no convictions to impart to anybody…. The old generation of rebels was purely negative in its rebellion, and cannot give the new generation of rebels anything positive against which it should not rebel. It is not that the old man cannot convince young people that he is right; it is that he cannot even convince them that he is convinced. And he is not convinced; for he never had any conviction except that he was young, and that is not a conviction that strengthens with years.”

– G.K. Chesterton, Illustrated London News of July 9, 1921

This festering TURD is trying to justify paying people over $ 1,000 a week on unemployment because they were only making $ 12 an hour. So we double their wage.

Such a moron, does he realize that if we pay 80% of people’s salaries, then his $ 12 /hr worker will get $ 9.60. Many would make less than all this free cash we are handing people.

Having worked in three nursing homes I concur entirely. Saw that happen all the time. Most startlingly for me , at first, were the women. Until I learned through training just what you described about ingrained and reflexive behavior. The sweetest old dear could suddenly curse a blue streak that would make the entire US Marine Corps blush.

I believe it's what called ‘’ the reptilian brain’’ or the limbic system(?). That part of the brain that is our ‘’primitive’’ as it were, part of us that has the ‘’fight or flight’’ response. The vestige of our ancient ancestors and how it served their fight into nature.

Apropos indeed. Thanks for posting it. It reminds me of H. G. Wells’ ‘’Things To Come’’. As war and ‘’progress’’ take civilization to an age of constant warfare and tribalism there suddenly appears, from seemingly from no where a new force, a new army of progressive technocrats. Full of youth, vigor(and conformity) they change everything into a gleaming, wondrous new world of peace and plenty with a satiated generation with nothing to do. So satiated one of them says "And what of all this ''progress!?'' "All this onward and upward, this endless reaching for the stars?'' "Enough of it, I say. I long for the old days of sweat and toil and the devil take the hind most!''.

These demonicRats sure better hope nothing happens this

I really think they are playing with their own lives. Ron Wyden (D-OR) is speaking now... How idiotic is it to drag this out when so many of them are in a high-risk category?

___________________________________________

Not sure, but I’ve always thought of this response as people having deeper *grooves* in their brains, or perhaps stronger synapses that were made so by repetitive thoughts in their prior cognitive lives.

Just like your face at 40 is determined by how you’ve lived the past 20 years. Your brain at 80 is determined by how you used it the past 60 years.

Perhaps, in your analogy, the mechanism is simply that the social facade falls away and the primitive responses survive.

Whichever it is, we all need to be cognizant of how we think while we are capable of a social facade. Someday, that protective wall will crumble and what we’ve really spent our lives thinking will be all that’s left.

I’m reminded of being told that, in some people, one early symptom of dementia is a sudden habit of going up to perfect strangers on the street, laughing and smiling and greeting them as if they were long-lost friends. Perhaps that is a more positive example of the life-long processes coming through. The subject of this anecdote was a woman who had always presented as very reserved, so the change was remarkable.
