Our oldest president just turned 79. He might have something to learn from the second-oldest

WASHINGTON — Joe Biden turned 79 last week. He’s beginning to look his age. The president walks a little more stiffly now. His diction, once clear, sometimes sounds a little blurry. His syntax has always been ragged; that hasn’t changed.

Like most of us, he gets tired at the end of a long day. At the U.N. climate summit in Scotland, he took his seat in the conference hall to hear the opening speeches and promptly appeared to doze off.

None of this appears to be clearly affecting his job. Last week he signed a $1-trillion infrastructure bill, a feat his predecessor was unable to perform at the comparatively young age of 70. He’s in the middle of negotiations for the Senate version of his big social spending bill; if it passes, he’ll deserve much of the credit.

I think for Biden it's a feat just to grip a pen and scratch out his name, he's demented and getting worse.

ChiComjoe is a lying, perverted, murdering traitor who, even before the 2020 election, has been rapidly descending into a dementia-addled poopy-pants, lying, perverted murdering traitor.

It’s a feat to sign a bill?? How much work can it be to make a big “X” with a crayon?

"None of this appears to be clearly affecting his job."

Yeah right! That is why he currently has such stellar approval ratings, and the country is on the verge of going down the tubes. Let's try another one LA Slimes!

The fact that Biden has been selling out this country for decades and the media has done nothing to expose it is all we need to know about the media.

Spending other people's money...some "feat."

The great economist Milton Friedman taught us that there are four ways to spend money: spending your own money on yourself; spending your own money on someone else; spending other people's money on yourself; and spending other people's money on somebody else. In 1994, satirist P.J. O’Rourke expanded Friedman's thesis in "All the Trouble in the World":

1. You spend your money on yourself. You’re motivated to get the thing you want most at the best price. This is the way middle-aged men haggle with Porsche dealers.

2. You spend your money on other people. You still want a bargain, but you’re less interested in pleasing the recipient of your largesse. This is why children get underwear at Christmas.

3. You spend other people’s money on yourself. You get what you want but price no longer matters. The second wives who ride around with the middle-aged men in the Porsches do this kind of spending at Neiman Marcus.

4 . You spend other people’s money on other people. And in this case, who gives a shit?

During Biden's colonoscopy, did the doctor have to continually ask Doyle McManus to get his head out of the way?
