Some colleagues of Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) are concerned she's no longer fit to serve in Congress, according to a new report.
Four senators, a California Democratic member of Congress, and three former staffers of Feinstein told the San Francisco Chronicle that "her memory is rapidly deteriorating."
According to the report, Feinstein, 88, at times "does not seem to fully recognize even longtime colleagues," and one lawmaker described an instance in which they had a conversation with her in which they had to repeatedly reintroduce themselves and she raised the same questions multiple times, apparently unaware they had previously discussed them.

Well, what do we expect of our government? In the early 1800's De Tocqueville said after observing our way of life that the outstanding people seldom pursue political positions but go on to success in the private sector. Look at how many of our politicians today never have another job after politics. They waste away with decades of protected life with no real purpose. Then, lose their faculties and fade away. I am happy to be acquainted with all of you outstanding Americans.

Not everyone who ages is incompetent, but when the decisions they make alter the lives of those they serve, there needs to be reality checks.
