G-d help him.

Less than 24 hours after a special counsel was named to probe Hunter Biden’s alleged tax and gun crimes, and while GOP investigators continued to search his bank records for signs of influence-peddling, the first son was begging the Big Guy upstairs for justice – as he led a public prayer at his nephew’s bar mitzvah.

The Aug. 12 trip to Marietta, Georgia brought Biden, 53, and wife Melissa to a suburban synagogue for the coming-of-age ceremony of Jayden Cohen, 13, the son of Melissa’s brother Davan.

“Our God and God of our ancestors,” Biden beseeched the Almighty in the traditional “Prayer for the Country” at the shabbat morning service of Congregation Etz Chaim, Hebrew for “tree of life.”

“Pour out your blessings upon [our] leaders and judges,” Biden read — including, presumably, his father President Biden, as well as the Delaware federal judge who rejected his sweetheart plea deal last month.

“Help them understand the rules of justice.”

“Grant us the knowledge to judge justly,” he added later in the lengthy invocation.

Biden — whose performance was captured on the synagogue’s livestream and posted to social media — dressed like a schlub for his nephew’s big event.

Simple Man

Forget your lust for the rich man's gold
All that you need is in your soul
And you can do this, oh, baby, if you try
All that I want for you, my son, is to be satisfied

As an artist, of any kind, you have to wonder what your inspiration inspires in others,
or if it offers no inspiration whatsoever to them.

I say some inspire greatly more than others.

Judging by the background I would say the set is a circus.

[philman_36]

...the set is a circus.

The set is the woods with a deer stand in the tree,
a guitar, a microphone and an amp...and a dog.

[philman_36]

...and a man singing his heart out...

Let us most fervently hope he gets it.

Old Yeller? Nah!

No, he will always think he is exempt from the rules of order.

[Theodore R.]

No, the historians are 90 percent plus on the leftist side; the Bidens will fare fine in the eyes of the American people. Maybe in a century a “revisionist” scholar will uncover the truth, but it is not likely as all the relevant evidence will have been destroyed.

in all their patchy, scruffy, jowly, and devoted glory
an homage to man s best friend...
