Biden’s constant use of his dead son Beau is disgusting. As the author says, we have no idea whether he was even near a burn pit, although Nancy Pelosi seemed to find it oddly funny. I remember Biden shouting about how the people of Kosovo respected Beau so much they named a highway after him - well, I wonder if that had anything to do with his old man being the VP of a country that funded Kosovo??
But all is OK for crazy Nancy to rip up speech right behind the president.
“Heckling a president during the State of the Union (especially a Democrat president) is not polite or politically smart. But the liberal journalists who were scandalized by the heckling never take exception to Biden’s very repetitive citations of his son, so much it reeks of exploitation.”
As far as I’m concerned, Pelosi opened the floodgates on this with the “ripping paper” display. I’d like to see Republican representatives live tweet each speech from the floor with immediate rebuttals and fact checks, and possibly a laugh track. As many have pointed out, they can dish it but can’t take it.
And to those Gopes who will hide behind “decorum”, YOU got us here.
It’s only rude when republicans do it.
I think there is something wrong with a man who drags his sons coffin around.

In a war to the death, politeness doesn’t count
One who insists on politeness will submit to beaing eaten by the lions and must be castigated for wimpiness
The person who runs the House, Nancy Pelosi who set a precedent when she tore up the SOTU speech and was questioned about it ONCE. Her lack of decorum has eliminated the Dems/media standing to say anything about anyone in the Chamber.
All this sturm und drang about the Republicas’ lack of decorum reminds me of the knife fight scene in Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. “Rules? In a knife fight? No rules!” followed up by a surprise kick to the crotch. The Dems have been knife fighting for a long time while we stand upright like a 19th century boxer explaining the fine points of the Queensbury rules.
Burn pits?? -State of the Union Address???
1. I’ve NEVER heard of “burn pits” prior to this SOTU.
2. Burn pits are a NATIONAL crisis? Since when?
3. If our military is stationing our soldiers near the, it’s a MILITARY problem
None of this adds up.
Besides that, … I find it VERY odd that it’s these SPEECH writers who CONSTANTLY inject Plugs’ dead wife and son into the speeches they give him to read. Not simply to mourn them; it’s ALWAYS a set-up to sympathy for one of their political agendas.
And yet, he still does it.. Just plain weird.
Its OK to heckle Biden because he’s not the President. Hes a Manchurian candidate. He and his body double and the whole illegal belligerent force need to be physically removed and tried for treason in a military tribunal. Its coming very soon.
Heckling a president during the State of the Union (especially a Democrat president) is not polite or politically smart.
All else aside, this is VERY true.
