As long as his earlobes are okay.

[Richard Kimball]

Oh boy. One metrosexual endorsing another.

[petercooper]

reminds me of a Seinfeld snippet when George thinks he's having a heart attack in a diner, and then is complaining to the waitress about a mistake in the bill

too funny

The 75-year-old Simon was admitted to St. John's Hospital after suffering shortness of breath on Thursday, when he had planned to announce his endorsement of Democratic presidential contender Howard Dean.

Take that as a sign, Mr. Simon.

[Revolting cat!]

Did he have to cancel the rest of the tour with Garfunkel?

[hang 'em]

Rather than making tasteless jokes about the Senator I will pray that his terminal sinus infection is also cured.

[LibWhacker]

One foot in the grave and he wants the whole country to join him. What a man.

[LoudRepublicangirl]

Is he wearing "the bow" tie into surgery?

[Chummy]

"...Simon was admitted to St. John's Hospital after suffering shortness of breath on Thursday, when he had planned to announce his endorsement of Democratic presidential contender Howard Dean....

Shouldn't Howard the Coward come with a warning label?

Endorsing or voting for this candidate is known to have caused shortness of breath, and may lead to lighter wallets, reduced prosperity, weaker defense, and other maladies.

Well maybe he was under the influence of drugs.

I had the privilege of meeting and conversing with Sen. Simon and his late wife a few years ago. Both they and my wife and I and some friends had sung at the annual LaSalle Bank's Do It Yourself Messiah (that year at Symphony Hall, Chicago), and they happened to come to the same restaurant that we did afterwards. I hear he's got a fine bass voice. I waited until after they were done eating and then introduced myself. He and his wife came over to our table and introduced themselves to our entire table. Say what you will about his politics, but is a man of integrity.

[N. Theknow]

Always thought Simon looked like Mr. Potato Head.

[PMCarey]

Does this mean there's another Democrat rally on the way?

Capt. Ahab to Moby Dick: "From hell's heart I stab at thee; for hate's sake I spit my last breath at thee."

Paul Simon to America: "Ditto."

[spodefly]

If you are in a hospital bed near death, Dean might just be as good as president as any other ...

[veronica]

I wish him well but what a goofball. Doesn't he have more important issues to deal with as he goes in for surgery?

[MissAmericanPie]

Even on the threshold of hell it's all about politics for them,

[dts32041]

Just became another dead JAP (Just Another Politician).

His legacy, crime and corruption in the US Senate and in Illinois.

Dump all your stock in bow tie companies, pronto!
