NY Times: Alzheimer's Cases Continue To Increase Despite Nomination Of John McCain?
Edited on Thu Jul-31-08 10:23 PM by Median Democrat
In light of the NY Times article a few weeks back that racism still persists despite the nomination of Barack Obama, I am expecting the NY Times to publish an article think about that fact that the incidence of Alzheimers has continued to increased despite the nomination of septuagenarian John McCain. Its an outrage that John McCain has turned his back on the elderly, and allowed cases of alzheimers to increase despite his nomination. Indeed, McCain has thumbed his nose at this growing tragedy by disguising his dishonesty as innocent little senior moments, which have been attributed by some to Alzheimers.

Study author Ronald Petersen and his colleagues had calculated that mild cognitive impairment (MCI) rates would have been closer to a 1% or 2% increase a year, based on Alzheimer's rates. "The rate of new MCI cases in this group was considerably higher than anticipated — about three times higher," he says.

Worse, rather than act his age, McCain has been living the life of an aged god father as he surrounds himself with younger, skinny and mostly blonde women as though he were an elderly Robert Palmer:

However, instead of bruinettes in pancake make-up, John tends to prefer blondes:

Yes, given the fairness in reporting and the NY Times article noting that racism persists despite the nomination of Obama, isn't it also fair and directly relevant to John McCain's campaign to note that Alzheimer's continues to increase despite the nomination of John McCain? Also, given the efforts to tie the rise in oil prices to the campaign of Obama, expect the media to cover the increase in flatulent people at the health club to McCain's run for the presidency. Coincidence? You decide!
