“If his wife cannot trust him, we sure as hell can’t.”
I’m just trying to parse the nursing home 1500 miles away thing.
Knowing that these are VERY vulnerable people and VERY much in danger of being abused, WHY would you pick a home for her that you weren’t even able to drop by and see in on her. The people in these places treat the patients according to how they perceive the family feels about them.
I’d NEVER put a female relative in a home that I couldn’t drop by spontaneously and visit just to make sure they weren’t being mistreated. Alzheimers patients, in particular, are susceptible to all sorts of abuse.
And you’re not going to convince me she was getting BETTER treatment in MISSISSIPPI than she would have in the beltway or NoVa.
He couldn’t have dumped her more obviously if he tried. What really impresses me is that everyone around the guy knows what he did and still sucks up to him.
That’s a lot of moralless people. I mean lets face it. They KNOW he will throw them under the bus at the drop of a hat if he will warehouse his sick wife. And those people are all part of our governance and leadership.
I feel so great about my country knowing that it has so many paragons of virtue leading it. Is it any wonder they in turn throw us under the bus when we get ‘inconvenient’?
