Get Over It

 Sometimes I think we metabolize the news much like a meal. We consume as much of it as we can stand, digest it as well as we’re able, and then move on.

But when it comes to certain issues in the news such as the current president’s age, the metabolization process seems to be taking much longer than necessary.

Let’s face it; he’s an old guy. And with age comes concern for his health, including his mental acuity.

But I for one would vastly prefer to have an old president who is competent, which Biden is, over a younger guy who is incompetent.

And there are plenty of those hanging around.

So it’s time to discount the issue of Biden’s age, sort of like how market forecasters build in various factors when considering the likely trend, say, of pork futures. And also just because old guys are, well, cool.

In other words, get over it. Metabolize!
