Brickbat: Adding Insult to Injury

While attorney Matt Tucker was in a hospital bed recovering from a stroke, Clayton Country, Ga., Judge Shana Rooks Malone was attacking him on national TV, saying she was going to hold him in contempt for missing court. Tucker is representing a woman in a murder case. He had a stroke two days before jury selection was supposed to begin. Tucker claims his office emailed the judge to let her know. His client told the judge in court about Tucker's medical emergency, and Tucker said he doesn't understand why Malone didn't believe her.

At least now he qualifies to be a senator.
My hump approves this comment.
Fetterman's Hump has a hump of its own? Sounds malignant.
Let's not forget that judges are attorneys in robes. I would be surprised if these two didn't have a history.
So what if he had a stroke? Having a stroke doesn't mean you're not perfectly fine and perfectly able to fulfill your duties. Didn't Fetterman just prove that?
Don’t forget dementia. You can still be an effective president even if your mind is turning to mush.
#SharpAsEver
Is turning into mush?
Has turned into mush would be more accurate.
Sorry, which demented old fart are we talking about?
Sharp as ever? How can you tell? It's not like most of them were all that sharp to begin with.
I don't care how many "shrokes" you've had!
After leaving my previous job 12 months ago, i've had some good luck to learn about this website which was a life-saver for me.They offer jobs for which people can work online from their house. My latest paycheck after working for them for 4 months was for $4500.Amazing thing about is that the only thing required is simple typing skills and access to internet.

Judge was correct to avoid Ableist tendencies.
Being dead is no excuse for failing to appear in court.
And yet government officials cannot seem to understand why government is held in such contempt by the people these days.
Personally, I just wonder why government isn't held in much more contempt.
