Thanks Joe!
Today wife and I got out first Shingles jab for free through Medicare Part D. Picked up our eight free C-19 tests last week.
Going in next week for the new Pneumonia vaccine also for free with Medicare.
I blame this squarely at the President and Democrats feet....

LBJ did a LOT of arm-twisting to get Medicare passed.
https://www.politico.com/agenda/stor...macare-000153/
Ronnie Raygun, of course, opposed it as "soci@lism".
Quote:
In 1961, with Medicare inspiring trenchant opposition, Ronald Reagan ominously warned that from Medicare it was “a short step to all the rest of so************************m.” Today there’s no serious argument about its value: Medicare is expensive, but eliminating it would be a third rail in politics, the kind of thing that only a few brave entitlement hawks would dare attack. Its enduring success is owed in part to its smooth launch, but mostly to near-universal reliance on its safety net. Americans simply now expect that once they turn 65, they can count on consistent and low-cost health care.

...yet we have morons right here on these forums who long for the days of Ronnie.

Goddamned Democrats made me an offer I couldn't refuse, a free titanium knee and they replaced a couple discs in my back. What a bunch of tyrants.
What's next? A new fucking shoulder! Bastards...

A old retired Bagslinger from the flight line of Main Line Carrier here. Just metal in the back and neck so far.

Great STOU speech, Joe!
McCarthy looked like the stuffed shirt moron that he is throughout.

SOTU POLL: Whopping 72 Percent Approved of Biden Speech — Including 43% of Republicans
https://www.mediaite.com/news/sotu-p...tnews_redirect
I didn’t bother watching Ugly Sarah’s rebuttal, which was, of course, nothing more than typical Whell’s World whining from everything I’ve read about it. Joe knocked it out of the park, and the idiot MAGAts played right into his hands.

The designated former spokesliar for despicable repugnant con man. Good choice to represent the wacko wing as the identity of the 'pubs.

Now all Joe has to do is keep putting the good news out there. For all our sakes he must counter the misinformation and outright lies put out there by the Reich-wingers.

He put up a very good argument last night,. giving it back with a smile. Mature adult willing to let the kids show their @ss.
The GOP will still use edited clips to try and show he is loosing it. But last night live he was on target and effective.
Now he needs to drive it home, not letting up any. Keep showing how incapable and chaotic they are as a party right now.

Nobody can say Pres. Biden is grand orator but he gave a great reason for another four years of adult rule. The antics from the horses ass caucus with poor Kev McCarthy shushing them all night should give the old duffer both houses when he's re-elected in '24. Last night was his kick off shindig.
Vote True Blue in '24
Biden/Harris
