" have learned the most important lesson I ever learned and that is Jesus is the answer. Could not have made it without Him. Thanks."

Amen to that. I found out that very thing when I lost my parents. Having Him to lean on was everything.

When Beau went to Walter Reed early this month most of the comments on FR were pretty nasty.

I do not like Joe Biden.

Still, prayers to him and family. This cannot be easy.

I feel for the family. But I can’t help but believe if Biden runs for office again he’ll use his son’s death to get votes. I don’t know much about Beau. But his father is a slimeball.

Rather, when it comes to personal heartbreak, set aside the politics.

No person deserves the heartbreak of losing a child (no matter how old that child is).

RIP and prayers for God to help the Bidens through this. They have had tragedy before and I do feel for Vice President Biden and his family.

I am unaware he ever used the sudden and very tragic death of his wife and daughter in any campaign. Do you know differently?

You’re joking, right? If you’re not, in his campaign speeches he blamed a drunk driver for the accident, and still does, even years after it was proven drunk driving had nothing to do with it.

Your just damn nasty. What a horrible human being you are. I am embarrassed that you are even breathing. I hope that doesn’t last much longer.
