I've never seen a statesman such as Joe Biden

24. I agree, and am very glad you posted this.

I'm 76 , so I won't live to see another either.

But I really get tired of blame,and even more of misplaced blame.

Though I was already signed up, I was not looking at DU in 2016, but I was looking elsewhere, and I'm thinking this is starting to look a whole lot like 2016.

On a separate but relatd topic, I also wish people would stop asking/petitioning elected officials to so something which is not their job. I just received an email from someone who should know better asking me to petition President Biden to tell the DOJ to prosecute Trump** Why can't people see that that would be one of the worst kinds of corruption? Telling the DOJ to prosecute someone who happens to be a political enemy? No, Joe is not going to do that, and stop asking him to! If you want the Department of Justice told to prosecute Trump**, tell them yourself. The DOJ represents the people, and you're a people.

When Republicans claim Nancy Pelosi is responsible for Capitol Security (in case you missed it, she isn't), I expect that - from Republicans, even ones who know better, because they don't care, they just want to hurt her. I don't expect such from Democrats, Liberals, Progressives.

I apologize for letting what was supposed to be an expression of gratitude turn into a rant. But I think I'll leave it.
