Norm was the greatest! Glad Bob Dole thought so, too!

Bob is 98 now. Incredible. Too bad he didn’t beat the Clinton criminal co-Presidency. 3000 people could have been walking around today.

Man I might have bet good money if you wagered that Bob Dole would outlive Norm MacDonald.

Rest in peace, Norm.

Norm recently said that there is no comedy today. His point was that parody was dead and now instead of humor it was just mean insults. He was mainly speaking about how late night TV deals with Donald Trump.

My brothers mother in law is dying of cancer as well right now. She let her breast cancer go too far before she went to the doctor, now it’s all over her body, everywhere, even her legs. 2021 and they still use 100 year old methods to treat it, radiation and poison, give me a break.

The only impression Norm did better was Quentin Tarantino.

Bob probably won’t be missing him for long with his diagnoses

Yep, late night is as pathetic as it gets especially that piece of rat crap Jimmy Kimmel who is about as funny as a heart attack. I remember Johnny Carson once said “Never take sides in politics if you are in entertainment because you will lose half your audience no matter what side you pick” and Johnny stuck to that didn’t he. Not these idiots like Kimmel and Colbert.

Amazing that Bob Dole has survived MacDonald (and very sad for Norm’s family and friends, of course - 61 is WAY too young...and I would have said that even if I hadn’t just turned 60 a few months ago).

I am, despite the loss of MacDonald, glad to see that Bob Dole is still around - the man was a genuine war hero (and for those who don’t know was very badly injured, an injury that affected him for life), and did his best to continue to serve this country afterwards. Even if I didn’t always agree with him, if I thought that he didn’t fight the Left/Dems hard enough, he has generally been one of the good ones.

Whoa! I didn’t know what you were talking about until I looked it up. Wow, lung cancer. Although for a guy his age it’s amazing he is still alive after being diagnosed 6 months ago with stage 4!!

“In February 2021, Dole announced he was diagnosed with stage IV lung cancer and will undergo treatment.[118][119] As of July 2021, Dole was receiving immunotherapy to treat the disease, forgoing chemotherapy due to its negative effect on his body”

“Pineapple Bob”, as we jokingly called back in Kansas, always had a great sense of humor. He was old school formal in public which made him seem like a stiff.

Cancer is big business.

Yep, she is going through all these treatments and it isn’t doing ANYTHING. It’s insane, it’s like shining a flashlight on her and injecting her with battery acid, it’s total 16th century blood letting con job medical treatments and now it’s just a matter of time, they have her on morphine. They can come up with a vaccine for a virus in 8 months, but they can’t program antibodies to take out rogue cells that are dividing like crazy?

When we were FReeping Al Gore's house so many years ago, Bob Dole's car pulled up. Bob Dole gave us all a big thumbs up, and a big smile.
