Tee hee! A CSpan called ask it if was true that McCrusty has been diagnosed

[Peregrine Took]

with Alzheimer's Disease.

The moderator didn't know what to say so he just said that it wasn't true "as far as he knew!"

[LiberalFighter]

1. Does the moderator have Alzheimer? Hmmm

[Solly Mack]

2. LMAO

[EFerrari]

3. I just heard that. LOL

Same host that discounted Ohio vote rigging out of hand the day after. "Will we be hearing about that for the next four years?"

Karma. :evilgrin:

[opihimoimoi]

4. McFriendMyAss is a victim of a Midnight LoBot....the Doc fucked it up and left him the way he is

Fucked and stupid....he should sue for damages

[calimary]

7. McFriendMyAss! Oh MAN! opihimoimoi - another worthy entry!

I'm collecting these as much as I can, and stashing 'em in my journal.

[opihimoimoi]

9. Ya don have ta but I am Honored if ya do....

5. Aww, that's sad.

Not all old people have Alzheimer's.

Also, it is my understanding that POWs cannot get Alzheimer's.

Is this not valid any longer?

[Buck Laser]

10. POWs can't get Alzheimers?

Everything I've read leads me to believe that people who've suffered great stress in their lives are much more vulnerable to Alzheimer's than those who've lived less stressful lives. I think nuns are notable for a low instance of Alzheimer's, at least those who work at keeping their minds agile.

I truly worry about McCain's senility entirely aside from the massive policy objections I have to him.

[ColbertWatcher]

11. Excuse me, but I think you misread my post ...

... I said, "John McCain was a POW. POWs cannot get Alzheimer's, therefore John McCain was a POW."

Is that clearer now?

[fascisthunter]

14. lol

[tavalon]

23. You just landed in my buddy list

I can't wait to see how far you take this. You are a chip off the old Colbert block.

[tavalon]

22. I think I'm beginning to fall in love with you!

You keep showing up at such random times, reminding us that McCain was, in fact, a POW. I really don't think we would remember that without you. LOL.

On a more serious note, those who were POWs in that time (and let us not forget that John McCain was a POW) were systematically starved, tortured, not allowed to sleep comfortably, exposed to many tropical diseases, etc. The legacy of that is that they are dying young and/or their minds are going. It's a pretty normal thing to happen to people whose immune systems were stressed in such extraordinary ways. Yes, McCain is showing signs of Alzheimers or just plain dementia. I would be surprised if he weren't. That said, I respectfully believe that it wouldn't be good for him or the country he served, for him to become President now with these deficits becoming so obvious. He deserves a relaxed retirement, starting now.

6. "people say" McCain suffers from dementia

and Cindy was sent to Georgia because she'll be standing in for him.

[Bluebear]

8. Yes, you are exactly right. "Some people say" McCain is suffering from dementia.

(making notes :))

[ColbertWatcher]

12. " "Some people say" McCain is suffering from dementia." Fascinating.

I believe we may need one of those "refute the rumor" polls like those Rush Limbaugh is a junkie pedophile ones I remember seeing a while back.

[hvn_nbr_2]

18. "Some people say" McCain is just a dumb fuck. nt

[tavalon]

24. Okay, I'm one of those people

I cannot say definitively that he has Alzheimers but what I can say is that I'm seeing mental deficits arising that indicate dementia is beginning to manifest itself. What the underlying cause of that dementia is, I can't say. I'm an RN trained at the School of Frist, so that I'm highly skilled at video diagnostics.

[unblock]

just remember, he's NOT a pedophile. that's just a nasty rumor.

as far as i know.

[DCKit]

13. Alzheimer's? Reagan had that and he was the bestestest pResident EVAH!!!!

Thanks for adding another qualification to a very short list caller.:nuke:

[alfredo]

15. The birth of a whisper campaign.

[ColbertWatcher]

16. What? n/t

[alfredo]

17. Ssshhhhhhhh

[ColbertWatcher]

19. Eh? Speak up sonny, my ear horn is on the fritz! n/t

[alfredo]

25. Get it off the fritz, it'll leave a mark.

[jberryhill]

20. He won't release his psych records /nt

[JDPriestly]

21. Impossible. We know that he has not forgotten that he spent 5 1/2 years in the Hanoi Hilton.

As long as he can remember that, he's qualified to be president.
