Kerry's Operation - The Question the Media is Not Asking
04/01/04 | Jolly Green

Posted on 04/01/2004 3:43:21 AM PST by Jolly Green

We've all heard that the operation on Kerry's shoulder is to repair and old injury. What old injury? Why now? There is every reason to believe that this ultra-liberal injured his shoulder on his recent snow boarding vacation. We saw all of the footage of him gliding down the slopes, but nary a foot of him crashing into the secret service agent or the other five known crashes. (And that was just the first day.)

He threw his shoulder out while patting himself on the back.

I want a closeup shot during his first public appearance; to see if he looks less like one of those "foreskin dogs" (Charpei?)....he's getting some Botox while he's getting whatever else.

Kerry seems to have constant health problems of one sort or another

Yes, he seems too fragile to endure the Presidency, he's going to need more doctors than Cheney! ;-)

(The leftists tried to disqualify him for medical reasons, right?)

I actaully hadnt thought of it, but you know you may have a point here. Snow boarding and skiiing with a hurt shoulder? Good Lard, I hurt after skiing without any injuries. I cannot imagine trying to ski with a torn rotator cuff.

In the end, it will ruin his curveball.

"It's previously been reported that Kerry recently aggravated an old pandering injury."

Probably rotator cuff tear caused by holding his hand out for money all the time.

Probably with new procedures the trauma is less. My surgury was in the early 70's. :) And I'd call shoulder surgury elective all the way, wouldn't you?

Something is pretty fishy!!!

If you're gonna post that in every thread that you can, please provide a source for it. Otherwise you're just trading in rumors.

yeah, I agree. I had it too! painful! lots of demerol I think it was.

Something is fishy!!!

Waffle man won't tell us the truth about anything! How'd he come across those 3 purple hearts anyway? Inquiring minds want to know how you get combat wounded three times and not one overnight hospital stay. How come the shoulder surgury now? In the heat of a campaign for president? Weird!!!

Let's demand an answer!!!

I think he is probably going to sue his campaign for his injury on the bus, probably will settle for the exact amount of his illegal mortgage on his Beacon Hill Mansion. And I noted that he has been using that arm perfectly well when he shouts his campaign speeches. He lifts it, has full range of motion and does not appear to be in pain. I am suspicious. but it would be very very hard to hide a recurrence or serious bout of cancer, people talk. I wonder if he has hypochondria, always running to the doctor, needing a rest, etc.

You could be right. Hub severed three (THREE!) shoulder tendons in a fall on icy steps at home--landed on the shoulder at the edge of the step. His poor arm was hanging way down, barely attached, should waaaay out of joint...

He walked back in, said, "Honey, I think I hurt myself pretty bad..."

After a month of healing, all three tendons were re-attached in a two hour surgery, he went home the next day, three months of rehab, and he says the shoulder, a year ago. Shoulder works perfectly now, better than the uninjured one, which also has rotator cuff problems...

I've been wondering about this. Shoulder surgery is almost always highly elective. Why have it now? He may be having some other kind of surgery (along with the cover story shoulder surgery), that is less elective, and is more of a health concern. Probably something to do with his prostate. He does have prostate cancer, and had a radical prostatectomy only one year ago. He may be having radioactive implants, for example.

If Kerry was a Republican we would here a lot more about his CANCER, and whether he was cured, or might relapse. "Sen Kerry, has there been any sign of residual prostate cancer? What is your PSA level?"

Sen. John Kerry is doing well after surgery to remove his prostate, a spokesman said.

BALTIMORE, Maryland (CNN) -- Presidential hopeful Sen. John Kerry was discharged from Johns Hopkins Hospital on Saturday, three days after undergoing surgery to remove his cancerous prostate.

Duh! "He says the shoulder..." works better than the uninjured one, which also has rotator cuff problems.

That was just over a year ago.

I don't think John Kerry could scratch his own back without hitting himself in the head with his elbow!

Just stating my opinion. A HS friend did three tours as a river rat. He has spoken for years about fragging that he knew of. This is his take.

"...I've had this corrective surgery on my shoulder and it is hardly an out-patient kind of thing. I was laid up three days in the hospital and the recovery took weeks."

Absolutely. It's serious business. When I injured my rotator cuff, I was in such agony, there's no way I could have gone snowboarding.

"And Kerry refuses to release his medical records, indicating he has something to hide."

The word is he picked up a case of the clap between marriages.

None of Kerry's crew has ever made such an assertion. Even the one from NC that disliked him.

Fragging was a term developed by the media. 86 "fragging murders" did occur among US KIA in Vietnam. Source:UNHERALDED VICTORY by Mark Woodruff.
