Senator Tim Johnson: When Do We Get an Update?
27 December 2006 | Vanity

Posted on 12/27/2006 6:24:53 AM PST by shrinkermd

Senator Johnson's tragic illness happened two weeks ago. Since then little information other than he was under sedation. Has anyone read or heard anything?

He'll be pronounced "fit as a fiddle" as soon as Disney's Imagineers get his animatronic replacement ready. They've been preoccupied with their Castro model of late.

I was wondering about this very question this morning myself.

Granted brain surgery is not exactly a minor thing but being sedated after two weeks is somewhat curio.us

I would say in this case that no news is bad news for the Senator. If he were doing well, they would likely announce it.

Continue praying for him and his family.

We will probably see and hear very little about the senator for the next 2 years.

Unless he, himself resigns, or is impeached, or dies, he stays a senator.

Dingy Harry would personally monitor the senator's life support machines just to stay in control.

Yes, the NYT can find and publish our nation's secrets on page one but cannot even find a place for a major story update. If they want to know they would know seems to be the best assessment that can be made.

He's fine.

Yeah, don't you just love how concerned we are in Illinois about "corruption" and then re-elect the biggest crooks and scam artists in the country over and over while piously pontificating about corruption? What a sham.

If Senator Johnson was doing as well as Searchlight Harry claimed .. then he should have been released from the hospital by now

The South Dakota newspaper follows the situation, but you are right, all they have to say is that his condition is unchanged.

Has anyone offered to "channel" the senator's vote yet? Kucinich perhaps?

The lack of valid and real updates probably makes the odds very high for a poor outcome for the senator.
