From what I read it's causing his speech to be slurred, causing extreme fatigue along with substantial weight loss.

It's got to be hell having your brain work but your body not be able to express yourself as you're used to.

I guess if that's funny to you, so be it.

You are becoming a complete nut job.
It was the question he asked. You do understand what an island is, right. Did this go right over your head? How about the fact that he is on the Armed Services Committee? Is he there because we feel bad for him?

If you are incapacitated by an illness, and if that bit on Guam is a result of such an illness, you should take a temporary leave of absence if practical or step down if not. Your job is to serve the American people and this nation. This is one of the greatest honors and greatest responsibilities you can hold. If you are in capable of doing so, remove yourself from the position of responsibility.

If he were a doctor, a member of the military, or driving a frieking Ice Cream Truck, he would be grazing other pastures long before reaching this state. It is sad and it is unfortunate, but his duties require clarity.

His question seemed pretty simple to me. He was concerned that the increase in US troops couldn't be absorbed by the limited area of a small island.

This is a perfectly reasonable question and exactly the kind of oversight the Armed Services Committee is there to provide the taxpayer.

Did his illness impair his ability to ask the question or express his concern? It certainly looks like it has.

If he should still be serving considering his condition is another issue outright, your assertion is that he's a "complete moron" is central to this thread.

Spence, did you listen to the video?

He asked about the island tipping over with to many on one side.

Not making fun of his illness.
