    I'll tell you when they SHOULD test someone.  When that someone talks from a podium with cameras pointed at him and brays utter lies and nonsense for the whole world to listen to and laugh at.


    That person needs to be examined and declared certifiable and have that stamped on his forehead.

    We know the sb prez is a wackadoodle kookoohead. That's what his peeps adore about him. He is a loose cannon that will and does go any direction at any time for no reason or every reason. Life with him driving the boat is exciting for them. For us it is SHEER TERROR. Thank you for your reply Sharon!  :)

    What's that whole Catch-22 thing?
    If you ask to get out because of insanity - you're sane enough to remain in.
    Something like that.

    Anyway ... I think requiring a cognitive test for politicians would be a good idea.
    But I would also say if you WANT to be in "the halls of power", that's probably a sign you shouldn't be allowed.

    Jim had a stroke several weeks ago and had a Cognitive Evaluation yesterday Walt. He passed so he won't need any speech or cognitive therapy. He goes  in for a physical evaluation on the 29th of May. His balance a little bit wobbly. Thank you for your reply!  :)

    Jim had a stroke several weeks ago m2c. I think I told you. Yesterday he had a cognitive evaluation and passed so he won't  need any speech or cognitive therapy. He goes back on May 29 for physical therapy evaluation. He is a bit wobbly with his balance. Hopefully he'll pass that too! Thank you for your reply and Happy Thursday bto thee! :)
