John Fetterman: Disabled Americans have the right to be represented

Disabled Americans have the right to be represented, and most importantly, to work — and that includes working for the U.S. government.

[Joe 6-pack]

"But I just don’t see many retarded and Alzheimer’s and stroke patients even running, much less winning “gov work”."

We won't have full equality until the US Air Force has its first blind fighter pilot. Th visually impaired have been locked out of that career field for far too long!!

[dfwgator]

“Don’t worry scro’! There are plenty of ‘tards out there living really kick ass lives. My first wife was ‘tarded. She’s a pilot now.”

[Opinionated Blowhard]

Or Bob Dole for that matter. I remember MS-DNC being nasty to him all the time.

they suck if he can talk in coherent sentences

[joshua c]

im smaht

not like people say

[joshua c]

blind people have a right to be represented

that doesnt mean they want a blind person driving the car

[Starstruck]

A lawyer who represents himself has a fool for a client

[dennisw]

How about Zombie-Americans??? We have millions of them, aka the walking dead Democrats. Fettergoon can represent them too, in the US Senate.

[Myrddin]

Neither Biden nor Fetterman below in public office.

[nathanbedford]

Should both have been forced to resign their office?

Forced? By whom?

By a court? The Constitution grants our federal courts no jurisdiction for any such thing and with very good reason otherwise the Senate would serve at the pleasure of nine lawyers in black robes. The Senate itself under its own rules might have a constitutional power to expel a member but I know of no provisions for citizen recall.

[Organic Panic]

Well then. By that standard chomos are well represented by Chomo Joe.

[mware]

...and what better way to represent disabled than a doctor representing their interests.

[Vaduz]

And that includes working for the U.S. government.

Obviously Liz Plank hasn’t noticed who’s in the WH now and how things are going.

[MikeHu]

I’m sure that an attractive and articulate person like Fetterman could get a job at MSNBC or CNN or PBS — if he loses the election. He’s far better than anything they presently have.

[Dante3]

Is there any job that Fetterman - or Biden - would qualify?

Is there any job that Fetterman - or Biden - would qualify?

[vpintheak]

What a crock o shite.

[nhbob1]

Do we allow blind men to become airline pilots? There’s a limit to what you can do with a disability. Maybe it’s not a good idea to have a cognitively impaired individual making decisions that will impact millions.
