Family Torn Between Placing Grandpa In Hospice And Having Him Run For Senate
U.S.·Jul 28, 2023 · BabylonBee.com
LOUISVILLE, KY — A local family was faced with a difficult decision this week regarding whether to place their beloved grandpa in hospice care or have him announce a campaign for a U.S. Senate seat. The grandfather and potential candidate, Philip Gabbert, is 98 years old and suffers from advanced dementia.
"We could really go either way on this," said Bryce Gabbert of the decision. "He's in really rough shape and has very little quality of life these days. Common sense says he belongs in hospice, but with the way things are in Washington these days, he could really become a major power player. He can't really speak or think clearly anymore, but who are we to not give him the opportunity to run the country?"
With elected officials like Joe Biden, Mitch McConnell, Diane Feinstein, and John Fetterman serving in high government positions, political parties have focused on recruiting the most aged, decrepit, and impaired candidates available to campaign. "The worse they are at being able to reason and communicate, the better," said Robbie McKean, who helps run Democratic political campaigns in the state. "If McConnell ends up resigning, there will be a battle for his seat, and who better to take that spot than an even older, more debilitated codger?"
At publishing time, the Gabbert family was still struggling with the decision, torn between doing what is best for Grandpa or doing what would be more likely to set up the family for several generations' worth of wealth built upon illegal bribes, insider stock trading, and campaign kickbacks.

Thank you!!!
See that's how the video should end. It's not just the jump. It's not just the landing. It's what happens after that.
It's too bad the driver didn't whip out a couple of donuts. He had the momentum, but I don't think the control was there, or the horsepower.
Ummm…no. Bacon makes everything better. I’ve seen my fair share of women who have no business wearing yoga pants.

@Dirty D would disagree with you.....
It’s nice to see kids dressing up like their big brothers and pretending to go to work.
Visit North Dakota - then get back to us. LOL
What's that under the wings? Strikes? Get those guys an Ensure...and a walker.
For all of you bitching about Photoshopped tits and butts, here's some little bitty alien titties courtsey of CGI!
No. That would be either 4 x HARMs or HARMs and Mavericks (AGM-65). The F-4 might be old, but at least it can properly use a HARM.
Difficult to see on my phone/old eyes. The Shrike is of the same generation as the F4.
From what I can see those are mockups...or maybe captives.
It looked to me like he was losing a lot of fluids after the landing.
It’s hard to tell because that’s an old photo, late 80’s, and even the old cameras didn’t have the best resolution.
When I started flying the G model in 1985 they were already starting to phase out the Shrike. The shrikes all have rectangular sensors on the sides of the nose.
When they were making publicity photos they would load up live ordinance to make it look good. They even have CBU on they last one.
They are carrying the ALQ-184 ECM pods so that photo would have been from the 1988 - 1989 time frame out near George AFB.
How many of you dumb fuckers licked that aluminum ice tray?
You had to run under water to loosen the cubes before pulling the handle. Then you could safely lick it.
It was always some higher AF approval for a photo shoot, I really don’t remember from were.
We carried and dropped live all the time. No one cared about that.

At one time flying live tac missiles was common place. I don't remember when it ended, but there was something about an inadvertent launch. IDK. Memory is too fuzzy.
Gunships never carried anything with blue markings.
I’m scared of brief people, they can suddenly bite you on the knee for no reason
Other than the photo shoots, we only carried live when we were going to drop / fire them. We had captive versions of the missiles for training.
I still remember the shit I caught for jettisoning a TER with a live hung CBU. I can only imagine what they would’ve said if I had to eject a HARM.
