Reply to comment by [deleted] in Fetterman/Oz Debate…In my humble opinion. Who’s the best choice for PA? by T-Hi

Okay, first of all, we have disabled Americans serving as inspiration for other diasbled Americans and that sure as hell should be on the very bottom of why anyone would endorse a candidate. A stroke is much more than a lost limb though. So you can do the ra-ra for JF, but would you 1) ride as a passenger in a car with him as the driver or 2) trust him to fill out medical/legal/financial paperwork that would affect you for the rest of your life? That's the problem with what we saw last night. Nobody knows what comes next. Lastly, I hate that this happened and Mehmet Oz is now the more qualified candidate somehow.

It's obvious that you are equating people you don't like/agree with on the same plane as someone having a stroke and being proven to have cognitive disabilities. And then you just went on an emotional diatribe. Your original position was that being mentally handicapped would be an inspiration for the mentally handicapped. I'm glad that is not the reality of how we vote.

You don't vote for people because they have a disability. You don't vote because of gender. You don't vote because of race. You vote because they line up with your views. If your views favor a race or gender...what do they call that?

I loathe Oz. I've even joked about wanting my politicians do all be like Fetterman so they are less effective. Because, the less they all do, the better the country is for it.

You glossing over the mental handicaps that are apparent with a stroke while getting mad at people for pointing it out is what is known as turning a blind eye. It's unfortunate that this happened to JF. He was the better candidate for a multitude of reasons to me...up until that stroke.

So you admit it’s not about the stroke and about blocking the Republicans from getting the senate. Glad that finally came out.
