Another Republican Idiot.....
Why are these people not forced to retire at 65 and before they fully lose their mind?

Bunning's conduct draws a challenge

After the debate, Bunning accused his opponent's staff of physically assaulting his wife in Kentucky last summer, leaving her "black and blue" - an accusation the newspaper called "the most outlandish so far." His opponent said the allegation was "sad" and "not true."

Earlier Bunning said his Italian American opponent's physical features made him look like a son of Saddam Hussein - a remark for which he later apologized.

"Is he, as he ages, just becoming a more concentrated version of himself: more arrogant, more prickly? Certainly that would be a normal occurrence," the editorial asked.

"Or is his increasing belligerence an indication of something worse?" the newspaper said. "Has Sen. Bunning drifted into territory that indicates a serious health concern?"

2. You're right about Bunning; wrong about people over 65.....
wait till you get there and the "state" tells you you're too old to be useful any more.

5. Im sure it sucks but....
in politics, for the good of the people, the younger people, who no longer believe outdated ideals, it is in the best interest of the country for the elders to pass on the torch.

I apologize if youre insulted, and I dont mean that everyone over 65 is useless, but for some people, their senses do diminish around that age. So for the good of everyone else, they should not be allowed to run if they are over 65.

6. Let us not forget about good ol Arlen....
remember this is the same man that personally helped cover up the truth obout the JFK assasination!!!

And now he's using Mr. Teen Wolf himself, Michael J Fox, in his campaign ads. Fuck Arlen Spector too. Hopefully he will quietly pass away a day before the election.
