A lot of bullshit going around that they covered up President Biden's prostate cancer because they knew [View all]

Tapper's book was coming out, and they wanted to detract from the book so they kept it hidden.

That is absolutely bullshit, and the last time President Biden was screened for prostate cancer was over 10 years ago.

They didn't catch it because they refused to look for it. This is a consequence of the idiotic screening policy the US Preventative Task Force came out with years ago. While we wouldn't want to overtreat, it seems that it might be time to rethink the policy about not screening people over 70.

This is why 25% of the American populace believe that President Obama is not an American citizen, and a Muslim, because of all the misinformation that is spewed on social media.

and why too many people falsely believe the crap that this was some kind of coverup.

Worse yet, too many men over seventy believe they shouldn't have a PSA test. If someone doesn't want it, that is fine, but they should be able to have a fully informed decision about it, by giving all the facts.

Unfortunately, I don't have much optimism for the future of our country.
