Let us sincerely hope that he is not treated by the same socialized/national health care he intends to impose on the rest of us.

Otherwise, he is dead by dinner time.

Of course not JJC, some pigs are more equal.

Especially rich liberal pigs.

You folks are showing tolerance and class again, I see.

Happy Inauguration Day!

Clearly the man is very ill. But being a Kennedy, politics first! How tacky.

Yes, Interloper, BusHitler to you, too.

Interloper, isn't that pretty much how you'd react to the news of a Republican collapsing?

Sauce for the goose, ya know.

By the way, I started praying for both of them when I heard the news on Hannity at work.

Look at it this way, Interloper, it's better treatment than Mary Jo got.
