    And why won't the gutless bastards in the Senate (talking to you so-called Republicans) do anything about it. McConnell needs to be put to pasture, much like Mrs. Feinstein.

    It's an absolute shitshow these RINOS. Even fat boy Ted can't be bothered to grow a set and speak on the subject? He's leaning RINO himself.

    Get rid of him, and FETTERMEN as well. Strokes don't seem to mix well with public speaking. and Biden too, I think by the the 12th fall a red flag needs to go up.

    When are we need to get rid of these old men and women. It's cruel to say, but Biden, McConnel, Pelosi, Trump and Feinstein all need to go. They won't listen to reason and neither will the voters.

    The halls of power in our nation's capital need to stop being a damn retirement home.

    I would even go as high as 70 as that is the latest you can file for SS

    I could do just about anything I wanted when I was under 70. Over 70 and you simply don't have the stamina.

    These old people are still in office because idiots keep re-electing them.

    In many ways, the US today reminds me of the Soviet Union of the 1980's, an aging power with an aging leadership that passed the reins from one too-old fossil to another. That's where we are.

    For me it's not age, it's mental ability. Some people are as sharp as a tack at 80 years old, some people have mental problems in their 50s.

    Setting arbitrary age limits is silly imo. People can be very sharp for a long time. Alternatively they can be vegetables at any age.

    There need to be physical and mental evaluations and not just by a paid off quack.

    General Officers mandatory at 64 (with exceptions), I feel leading our country is as difficult AND important as leading the military. So, ALL political leaders should have to retire with the term ending after 64. Supreme Court justices are out at 64. All national government jobs end at 64.

    I agree. Dude needs to step down. This is embarrassing. He's a living version of BSOD

    Yeah…that’s what I said. Hence why I used the word “re-elect”. :roll:

    Oh, I thought there was something about idiots. That would be offensive, because that would refer to us, the people.

    We have seen 2 separate videos of McConnell having what looked like a mini stroke. How many has he had that there is no video of? Is he waiting to be removed from the senate building feet first? Commercial pilots have to take a physical. I have to take an eye test to renew my driver's license. Some insurance companies require a physical before a policy is written. Anyone making decisions for our country and our lives should have a mental and physical evaluation every year and the results should be published for all to see. We need that info before we vote.

    Heh, I'm sure Congress will get right on that bill, right after they stop themselves from insider trading.

    There is not a current mandatory retirement age, 67 is the nominal kick in for "full" social security is all it is....
