West Virginia Senator Robert Byrd Hospitalized

MSNBC

[hole_n_one]

MSNBC reporting Senator Byrd, (West Virginia) has been hospitalized. He was described as being "lethargic, sluggish and having a fever"

[ConservativeMind]

He just realized he endorsed Obama...

[The KG9 Kid]

... For which the only prescription is MORE COWBELL!

[Positive]

nothing

[prairiebreeze]

Feigning indignancy over Cheney’s “West Virginia” remark while ignoring the hypocrisy of countless members of his own party who say much worse, apparently took it out of Sheets.

[Las Vegas Ron]

Oh boy, the mods are going to be on this thread so I’ll do this myself.

[The_Republican]

Maybe Trent Lott would cheer him up with his infamous wit.

[geo40xyz]

Can't be:-)

[SE Mom]

He was described as being “lethargic, sluggish and having a fever”

...
Byrd Flu?

He was described as being "lethargic, sluggish and having a fever"

Just another day at the office.

[Pinkbell]

He’s probably upset about his good friend Ted’s surgery today.

[Brilliant]

“lethargic, sluggish and having a fever”

That’s pretty much normal for him.

[Shqipo]

First Teddy, now this? The Hildabeast trying to replace Superdelegates..? Barbaric!

[Fox_Mulder77]

No white sheet and hood jokes people. Even though they’re usually pretty funny. :-D

[mylife]

Maybe he wanted to be with Teddy

[Husker8877]

“...He was described as being ‘lethargic, sluggish and having come out recently in less-than-full support for the still-alive evil political zombie, Hillary Clinton.’...”

In other unrelated news, Teddy Kenne-hic-eneddy is recovering from brain surgery today...

[tet68]

He was described as being “lethargic, sluggish and having a fever”

Doctors describe his symptoms as differing from his normal
demented, desicated, immoblilized, and maudlin wanderings.

Reports are that with proper care he will be returned to his normal state shortly once the brain transplant with Teddy Kennedy is completed.

[Radix]

".. He was described as being "lethargic, sluggish and having a fever"..

Enough about his political career. How is his health?

[proudpapa]

Good and Bad things usually happen in 3’s.

Has anyone seen John Paul Stevens lately?

[lexington minuteman 1775]

I think being sluggish is normal at his age?

[proudpapa]

or Jimmy Carter?

[bmwcyle]

If that is the symptoms, he should have been hospitalized years ago.

[Dog Gone]

He was described as being "lethargic, sluggish and having a fever"

I think the diagnosis will be "Monday Morning."

From your lips...

Isn't that the drummer for Zeppelin?

[bert]

Two down......

[TNCMAXQ]

If Justice Stevens were to check out today I suppose the Dems would not let ANY Bush nominee through. He might as well stay where he is.

Heaven forbid Byrd and Kennedy should pass away at the same time. The media coverage would dwarf President Reagan’s funeral probably. This would be part of their plan to sweep Obama right into the White House.

[RDTF]

My friend...I miss you

(sniffle)

[Lizavetta]

Dare I say........caption time?

[theDentist]

Shall we gather at the river...

Prayers for you, Mr. Byrd.

[Maelstorm]

I’d usually laugh at that suggestion but the Clinton legacy certainly has an eerie pattern. It is often as if something dark is protecting the them. I don’t mean a conspiracy but the history that surrounds them and the people who die just when they need to does provide interesting fodder for conversation. We often err on the side of conventional means when thinking about our universe but there are unseen players in this world. We would be blessed if only all of them were human.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

Lethargic and sluggish describes to a tee Senator Byrd’s last thirty years in Congress. Perhaps the fever is really the news story.

[theDentist]

Should his seat be vacated for whatever reason, how is it replaced? Appointment? Special election? Other? What is WV's process?

Anyone know?

[Senator Goldwater]

He just realized he endorsed Obama...

---

Web gem nominee.

[JRandomFreeper]

Are you dancing around the fact that they have Satan on their side?

Prayers for both Senators to recover quickly....

John Paul Stevens was the bass player ;)

[TornadoAlley3]

Dehydrated from crying over Ted.

[JustaDumbBlonde]

You're looking a little lethargic, sluggish and feverish Bobby ... I've got a fifth of something that will put a little color in those cheeks ... just look at mine!

[hole_n_one]

A FOX News alert said that a “democratic leadership aid” on the Hill did not think it was serious.

[scrabblehack]

A replacement is appointed by the governor. In some states, the choice is restricted to someone of the same party as the predecessor. WV’s governor is a Democrat.

[hole_n_one]

Byrd hospitalized after suffering a high fever

[calex59]

Ok, I was banned for two days for saying this about Kennedy, but I hope this old fart doesn’t make it, period.

[Palladin]

ROFL!

[hunter112]

Anyone know?

He's taking it with him.

And it's not like he's never been completely under a sheet before...

[Dante3]

What a disgusting and crude statement to make. At least Byrd voted against amnesty. This is more than McCain ever did.

Wishing the best for Robert Byrd.

[SERKIT]

This is a reaction to VP Cheney’s speech. Byrd found out he had inbreeding in his family, too.
