So was it okay for Biden,

Your questioning shows us just how out of touch with reality your liberal/anti-Trump news sources have you hoodwinked. Watch Bill O’Reilly’s nightly show for one week. I dare you! It’s time your ostrich head withdrew from the sands of ignorance. You probably think Biden is still sharp as a tack.
Bill O’Reilly? Lol. I thought he got fired…. Sure that’s where I’d go to get the truth.
 
Easy, Tiger, calm down. It’s just a social media message board, not meant to get under your skin, sending blood pressure into a stroke-inducing frenzy.

I didn’t say you were a (gasp) liberal. I accused you of following the one-sided liberal/anti-Trump media sources. If you have to ask what foreign meddling and investigation, you obviously haven’t been following O’Reilly’s unbiased reporting. Last night he didn’t explain the specifics of the foreign meddling or investigation either. It’s because he didn’t have to. Do you still think Trump colluded with Russia, too? The truth of the Biden’s crime family underhanded personal business dealings will all come out. Biden is the second worst US President in history, second only to James Buchanan, Lincoln’s predecessor.
Maybe you’ve heard of this guy Donald Trump? Wait until you see what the history books have to say about him, his corrupt family, and the people he conned into voting for him. Hint: it won’t be pretty.

He still has the potential to go down in history as one of our greatest presidents. Now, wouldn’t that rankle the liberal Dems like an open wound kept festering.

Oh my goodness. You live in LaLa land. But we all knew that. He will go down as one of the very worst, most incompetent and the international laughing stock that he’s always been. What other President has world leaders laugh at him in his face?
 
However, for us who didn't actually know him or spend any time with him, whether he we think he was incapacitated or not is only an opinion.
When he dropped out, do you think Biden was capable of independent living? If he were your dad, would you have been okay with him living alone?

I gave direct links to muliple peer reviewed research studies that you choose to ignore.

Summary: in 20-30% of men, prostate cancer is not foreshadowed by elevated PSA levels. That number is higher still in men over 70.

These are facts.

Don't be dbm or a Lucy.
 
It didn't have to, he hasn't been checked in 7 years. They never checked it while he was president.

Exactly. My only contention has been with people saying this just occurred. It didn’t. He has had this for awhile it just wasn’t diagnosed. Probably because of his age. It would be interesting to see medication history for the last 7 years.

How would they know…he hasn’t had psa checked in 7 years per link from Marv?

But that also means a cover-up is not necessary. It also means the PSA guidelines need changed.

He lied about the death of his children? And wife? Please explain. Did Beau not die of brain cancer? Trying to compare Biden and Trump and their lies is a losing game for your side. Trump picks up a sharpie to lie about the weather and expects his minions to believe him. And sadly many do. The two are not, and will never be the same.
Biden was sharp as a tack don’t let the right wing propaganda fool you.

If true and not another of our “trusted” government coverups, Biden’s doctor needs to lose his medical license for wrongful neglect. I’ve had a PSA blood screening and finger up my ass annually for the last 20 years and I’m Abraxis Nobody in full name. You’re trying to tell me the leader of the Free World, at his age, hasn’t had it checked in seven years? I smell another rotten egg in the face of the Democratic Party, already in shambles.

Hmm, this says PSA treatment should NOT happen to people over 70


The American Cancer Society seem to be in to coverup too:

Because prostate cancer often grows slowly, men without symptoms of prostate cancer who have less than a 10-year life expectancy should not be offered prostate cancer screening, because they aren’t likely to benefit from it. Overall health status, and not age alone, is important when making decisions about screening.​

So it appears Biden's doctor was going by the book.

My understanding is that the problem with old-guy PSA is over treatment, not under treatment.

Hopkins said 7 years ago to not stop testing. Old guys have more metastatic prostate cancer, than population share because of too little testing, not too much. I simply don’t believe he hasn’t been tested in 14 years. I was tested 6 months ago and didn’t know it until I looked at my on-line test results. The doc just sent me a message that all blood tests were normal.

I would think that a POTUS would get prostate screening regardless. But that's just a layman's opinion.

I don't have a good reason to doubt their 2014 claim. Yes, I know Biden's camp was lying about his mental acuity. But that's a different thing than a cancer diagnosis.

post #59, this thread


executive summary
1) In 20-30% of ALL men, the number varying depending on which study, prostate cancer develops despite PSA levels in the normal range.
2) when you limit the analysis to men over 70, prostate cancer develops despite PSA levels in the normal range ~50% of the time
3) This finding led to recommendations for doctors to not even do PSA tests on men over 70 and instead regularly ask detailed questions of the patient about SYMPTOMS such as urination frequency, incomplete bladder emptying, urge incontinence
4) Point 3 explains why Biden didn't have PSA test done: it is not predictive of prostate cancer with more than a coin flip certainty and he reported no symptoms, apparently
5) There have been proposals to refine the PSA analysis guidelines, such as to consider smaller upward changes in the PSA numbers as a "red flag", even if the new number still qualifies as being in the "normal" range. These haven't been adopted, however.

... the more you know...

While I think it’s beyond debate that people were lying about Biden’s cognitive decline, I don’t think we can conclude with the information we have that anybody lied about his cancer.

It’s possible they did. It’s possible they didn’t.
I am obviously no doctor but I’ve known many guys with prostrate cancer including my father. Not one had it show up out of the blue at the stage Biden’s at.

I’ve watched several interviews with doctors including the Democrat networks and not one has said it could have shown up mysteriously in the last 100 days.

Referring back to @Mark Milton post, if Biden has the "dedifferentiated" type of prostate cancer, then wouldn't that explain this?

You're (presumably) familiar with the most common type of prostate cancer. The type Mark's friend was referencing is a rare type.

-The symptoms only recently emerged, or only recently were fessed up to by the patient
-Indeed it is likely that he had undiagnosed and mostly asymptomatic disease for some time, but that doesn't mean that a doctor or the patient "covered it up".
-PSA tests in his age group are especially unreliable indicators of prostate cancer progression
-For this reason, PSA tests in men over 70 are NOT standard of care
-Several doctors have clearly explained this, on multiple networks and in numerous articles, supported by research studies that I have linked.

Uh, it reads “often grows slowly”. When reading deeper into it, its meaning means “often, but not always, grows slowly.” A good friend of my first ex-wife’s father, an ex-father-in-law, was 60 when first diagnosed with prostate CA. He died six mos. later. Despite what Hippocrates might say, check Biden’s prostate every six mos, if not sooner-not every old man prostate CA has 10 years to give!

A female attorney once asked me how my father’s “postrate” treatment was coming. I chuckled to myself and went on pretending I heard her “correctly,” curtailing further embarrassment.

So the President of the United States wasn’t getting thorough physical or cognitive exams? Why not?

Hey doc, when did it metastasize to the bone? It is symptomatic, now. That is why it was found.

I did break out the FT analogy. PSA levels are within normal ranges in ~50% of over-70 men with a prostate cancer diagnosis. Shaq shooting a FT, not Alford.

I'm sure he was.

With respect to the prostate, he apparently was answering NO to all of the many questions from his doctors about prostate health, so no actions were taken. Maybe they imaged it for size, but prostate enlargement (or not) is also not a good indicator of prostate cancer. Symptoms are.

It seems his doctors followed protocols RECOMMENDED BY THE AMERICAN CANCER ASSOCIATION. No PSA tests if over 70, assess symptoms instead. No biopsies. Should they also hook patients to a polygraph?

I guess we will never know unless these many Biden leakers crawling out of their holes produce a doctor’s test results showing they knew.
 
You know what you're getting with Fox and MSNBC. CNN, ABC, CBS, and NBC should do better.

That said (and I may be mistaken) I don't believe any of those outlets denied that Biden's cognition was waning. If nothing else, they may have downplayed the extent, if in fact they actually knew what that extent was.
MSNBC didn't deny Biden's cognition was waining? Are you serious?

I've lost all patience for disrespectful posts and posters. I'd say sorry, but I'm not. ;) Don't worry, my blood pressure didn't elevate at all.

I used to watch O'Reilly often when he was on Fox. He's entertaining. I don't even know where his show is now, so I don't watch it. So, we're to believe that the foreign meddling and investigation are known only to him? Who was doing the meddling? Who is being investigated? Who's doing the investigation? How could any potential bombshell investigation not be known about? Surely, he gave you some hints at the answers to these obvious questions.

I've never said that Trump was engaged in a conspiracy with Russia to influence the election and that is what Mueller found. I don't know why some of you MAGAs get so fixated on that. The fact is, as found by our intelligence services, Mueller and a Republican led Senate committee investigation, Russia did try to influence the 2016 election in Trump's favor. What is unknown is how successful it was. It's not quantifiable. Russian influence isn't a crime committed by Trump, which should be what you care about. Some Russians were indicted for committing crimes though. That's also not a Trump crime.

We'll see what happens with Biden, but you can't be too confident they're going to find anything really serious given that the House Republicans spent four years investigating Hunter and Joe Biden and never came up with a single crime to refer to the DOJ. However, you can keep hope alive. If they ever find any actual crimes, I've always been for prosecuting the perpetrators. At this point though, it seems unlikely, and Biden should just fade away. Trump supporters probably owe Biden a debt of gratitude for not dropping out before the primaries. Democrats might actually have found a reasonable candidate to face Trump. Stranger things have happened.
Congress can't file criminal charges. The DoJ can. Guess who ran the DoJ when the statute of limitations ran out?
