I am of the belief that the President of the United States and the Speaker of the House each have some form or level of dementia. The Vice President of the United States is a power hungry egomaniac who is in love with the trappings of the office rather than doing something productive with it. The Majority and Minority Leaders of the US Senate are two grumpy old men that couldn't agree on a pizza order, much less how to legislate.
I mean, seriously. Where can an American turn for leadership? Hell, you absolutely MUST be certifiable to want to run for any of these offices.
No small wonder that fringe lunatics are starting to be taken seriously in the political world. The inmates are running the asylum.

Why do I like this one? I have a primary residence on the Mountain of Right.
Of you who read my previous post, how many of you caught the quote I stole from a movie? Can you name the movie and who said it?
Bet you didn’t know there would be a test…..
So, I have completed 4 of 6 chemo infusions, and I have to say that the last one seems to have caused almost no side effects that cannot be otherwise explained by the disease itself. I remain exhausted all the time, and I go home at the end of the workday positively depleted. That, however, seems to be due to the anemia that somewhat existed before chemo started but certainly seems to have been exacerbated by it.
I presently sit at a 40% disability rating with the Veterans Administration with some big stuff pending. I am awaiting a decision on my hearing loss and the PTSD/Depression. The cancer aspect takes a step forward with an exam by a VA contracted provider who will provide a recommendation as to the service connection to the cancer. If it goes my way and I get to 100%, then as soon as the first check hits the bank, I’m retired. While this exam is scheduled for Monday, I have no assurance that a VA determination will be quickly forthcoming. Patience is the key.
