The Republicans propped up - even literally carried to the floor for votes - Strom Thurmond for years. At 99 years old, he finally is not going to run any more.
We don't let pilots fly after a certain age, why should we allow senile old men and/or women make life and death decisions in Congress? There should be an age limit as well as term limits.
I strongly disagree with "age limits." I trust the good judgment of Strom Thurmond on the brink of his 100th birthday more than I do the judgment of ambulance-chasing shysters like John Edwards in the state just to the north at the age of 49. I think ole Strom should've run again...
