After weeks of near-total silence following his fall and hospital stay, the 84-year-old Kentucky senator posed for the camera looking cheerful. He’s missing Fancy Farm and a colleague’s memorial, and he's still sidelined as the Senate heads toward recess. His office and the Capitol physician say he’s grinding through intense physical therapy every day, with his childhood polio still a major factor in his mobility. This is the first real update in 15 days, and the timing has a lot of people wondering what’s actually going on behind the smile. Regular Americans watching this career politician enter the final months of a 42-year run deserve straight talk instead of carefully staged photo ops.
