In reply to the discussion: Clooney: Pressuring Biden to drop out was a "mistake" [View all]moniss
(8,514 posts)you apparently don't know that the paralysis of Roosevelt was something kept under wraps and even the media didn't mention it or show pictures. My comment was not about the party writ large but a portion of it lead by people like Clooney. Your statement about nobody objecting to FDR because of his paralysis is nonsense because as I said few people were even aware of it.
You can consider Clooney a hero but I don't. I think he engaged in a horrible display of ageism. Therefore I made the comparison to FDR but you apparently thought, based on your response to me, that I was saying his paralysis would have affected his job performance. I did not say that and wouldn't. What was clear is that I was saying Clooney and others like him would have thought so.
