Why is it disgusting
My 87 year old aunt adores gin, scotch, vodka, wine...any spirits will do..and so do all her friends. They drink more in a day than we drink in a month.

His young bride of 81 only allows him three drinks now.

27. Um...no
Some wives of Democrats have had problems with alcohol...like Kitty Dukakis.

Not a good idea to go there.

3. I know it to be common for seniors to
actually fracture their hip while walking hard or stepping down which give the impression they fell and broke a hip. Actually, the hip breaks and they fall as a result hip instability.

6. Otherwise we will have two weeks of reliving Reagan on the MSM
That love feast when he died just about made me throw up.

Nancy was .......... what can I say ....Ronald's wife so I hope
her health is OK for at least until after the election.

Get well soon Nancy.

I don't think so. She won't get the same coverage. I hope she recovers if that is what she wants.

Add.

28. She's got primo health care, and she's 86..She's had a great life
and sooner or later, she will pass away.. like all of us..

I hope she's not in pain..but that's about as much as I care about her..

Somewhere in another place, there's an old lady with no money, no family and who cannot afford her medicine.. I'll worry about her (and her millions of fellow travelers)
