I’m sorry but how do you know that it won’t affect him from performing his duties? We really don’t even know where he’s at medically so you really can’t say that.

It's about policies. They don't run marathons. Hilarious you all don't care about the 80 years Olds in congress that fall asleep during sessions if they have an R beside their name.

Well maybe don't make assumptions about me or me political beliefs. I think there should certainly be an age cap for the majority of political positions regardless of which party it is. They don't run marathons but they have to be able to use their brains and make decisions, many times major decisions. Neither you or I can say he is cognitively capable of performing his duties.

What's funny about you guys is that I can pretty accurately assume most your political beliefs if you just tell me one or two things.

You dems and repubs are really all the same lol. "The other guy is a liar and my candidate is a genuine person who cares about me". Grow up and just admit that you're an ideologue and that's the reason you're voting for Fetterman. Do you think that Joe Biden is trying to destroy the USA? If no then he's certainly doing a good job at it.

Mostly because he is recovering.

The stroke came at a poor time. But otherwise give it a year or so and he will be done with rehab and back to normal.

Even in an impaired state he won't support the more extreme republican policies that Oz will.

Janderss182 t1_itutzow wrote

Again, you're just making assumptions and trying to be hopeful for this guys future. You don't know how much more he'll recover in the future. Just be honest and say that you're voting for him because he's not a republican as opposed to just spewing this bs about his health and recovery

Yes. I'm not choosing the guy who can speak better but completely opposes everything I believe in?

Janderss182 t1_ituunjx wrote

In other words you're a democrat and will only vote for democrats because you're an ideologue. You're just like most the republicans in that aspect lol

Give me a reasonable republican candidate and I'd vote for them. Heck besides his Marijuana stance fetterman could have passed for a republican 20 years ago.

But at this point I realize I'm talking to a troll. So w/e.

Yes. I'll vote for the placeholder who shares my Ideals over a fancy talker who shares none.

I got to be Pickler in the primary. Where I could have a lukewarm lamb or a progressive fetterman.

Janderss182 t1_ituwhe3 wrote

Well I can't because, again, you're an ideologue and because of that you would never be able to view any republican as reasonable. That's the gist of what the word ideologue means in this context.

Collegenoob t1_ituyfv6 wrote

Because you've begun worshipping an umpa loompa.

You had reasonable Republicans back with McCain, Kasich and, Romney. But chose to abandon that for a man who openly mocked a disabled reporter, spoke foundly of sexually assaulting women, and may have sold classified information and compromised our spy networks in the world.

Everyone always told me as I got older I'd get more conservative. But I found that conservatives were a lot more reasonable when I was younger compared to now.

If you consider the people who championed an illegal war and the deaths of millions of mostly innocent people reasonable, then your moral compass is incredibly skewed.

I don’t think I ever said anyone should vote for Dr Oz lol. I’m just pointing out how delusional people are when they act like John Fetterman is all there

I'd like to point out that Ted Cruz attended just 17 of 50 public Armed Services Committee hearings, despite being on the committee.

There's no guarantee that a fully abled representative will "do their job."

I'd rather vote for the candidate who best represents my views, with a proven track record, and who will likely actually do their job and represent their constituents.

Janderss182 t1_itv7e2s wrote

Yes because I bet Ted Cruz is the only example of a politician not doing their job correctly and abusing their power

joefred111 t1_itvatmx wrote

I'm merely giving an example of a fully hale and seemingly healthy individual who isn't doing his job, as a counterpoint to your argument that a speech impairment would prevent another person from doing his.

Janderss182 t1_itvbcis wrote

Well I’m not really convinced that it’s just a speech impairment

joefred111 t1_itvbju4 wrote

I'd trust a medical expert on this one vice a month-old account on Reddit.

Also, your argument is similar to saying that Galileo and Stephen Hawking were somehow mentally deficient because they couldn't speak English properly.

Janderss182 t1_itvcqdg wrote

No it’s not similar to that at all because I don’t think John fetterman is simply dealing with a speech impediment as I just said.
