Family Torn Between Placing Grandpa In Hospice And Having Him Run For Senate

LOUISVILLE, KY — A local family was faced with a difficult decision this week regarding whether to place their beloved grandpa in hospice care or have him announce a campaign for a U.S. Senate seat. The grandfather and potential candidate, Philip Gabbert, is 98 years old and suffers from advanced dementia.
"We could really go either way on this," said Bryce Gabbert of the decision. "He's in really rough shape and has very little quality of life these days. Common sense says he belongs in hospice, but with the way things are in Washington these days, he could really become a major power player. He can't really speak or think clearly anymore, but who are we to not give him the opportunity to run the country?"
With elected officials like Joe Biden, Mitch McConnell, Diane Feinstein, and John Fetterman serving in high government positions, political parties have focused on recruiting the most aged, decrepit, and impaired candidates available to campaign. "The worse they are at being able to reason and communicate, the better," said Robbie McKean, who helps run Democratic political campaigns in the state. "If McConnell ends up resigning, there will be a battle for his seat, and who better to take that spot than an even older, more debilitated codger?"
At publishing time, the Gabbert family was still struggling with the decision, torn between doing what is best for Grandpa or doing what would be more likely to set up the family for several generations' worth of wealth built upon illegal bribes, insider stock trading, and campaign kickbacks.
 
No. That would be either 4 x HARMs or HARMs and Mavericks (AGM-65). The F-4 might be old, but at least it can properly use a HARage.
Difficult to see on my phone/old eyes. The Shrike is of the same generation as the F4.

From what I can see those are mockups...or maybe captives.
 
Thank you!!!
See that's how the video should end. It's not just the jump. It's not just the landing. It's what happens after that.

It's too bad the driver didn't whip out a couple of donuts. He had the momentum, but I don't think the control was there, or the horsepower.
It looked to me like he was losing a lot of fluids after the landing.

It’s hard to tell because that’s an old photo, late 80’s, and even the old cameras didn’t have the best resolution.

When I started flying the G model in 1985 they were already starting to phase out the Shrike. The shrikes all have rectangular sensors on the sides of the nose. IMG_7866.jpeg

When they were making publicity photos they would load up live ordinance to make it look good. They even have CBU on they last one.

They are carrying the ALQ-184 ECM pods so that photo would have been from the 1988 - 1989 time frame out near George AFB.
