Senator John Fetterman of my native Pennsylvania has been hospitalized once again.
First, during the campaign, he suffered a stroke. The campaign played it down and media ran interference for him, but it became obvious just how serious the damage was when he debated Dr. Oz.
Unfortunately, the debate happened late in the season after a large number of mail-in votes had already been cast. Those of us who could see that the man was obviously seriously impaired were subjected to condescending lectures.
Fetterman won, with a clear assist from the media. Then he was hospitalized again for unclear reasons, then released and recently hospitalized yet again for clinical depression.
People of goodwill ought to pray and trust for his recovery.
But there ought to be a reckoning for all the media propagandists who shamed people into silence about Fetterman’s health, starting with an apology to the voters of Pennsylvania.
