Bill Clinton rushed to Columbia Hostpital in NY for quadruple bypass surgery.

Cocaine overdose mimicks/causes heart attacks.

Perhaps Dr. Bill Frist of Tennessee can attend the surgery on behalf of the VRWC...

Seriously though, all the best for his full recovery -- it's certainly no day in the park.

FOX is still saying Hillary is upstate and not with him!

Surprised?????

[Petronski]

I used to work on the cardiology floor, had a cardiologist tell me that trying to do bypass surgery on a coke addict was like trying to sew through playdough.

Very interesting, I did not know that.

CNN Just sent out this story via their "alert" system.

News of Clinton's health upstages all other news.

FoxNews is fawning all over it.

I guess, since the Kobe trial went no where, the news channels need something else.

She went to the NYS Fair without him?
Oh boy.

Some of you are a disgraceful in your comments. Respect him like you would any other person.

I forced myself to watch the Dem. convention a few weeks ago (know your enemies!) and the contrast with the Rep. convention was soooo overwhelming! I just loved watching it this week. CSPAN played it again at least twice last night and then today . . . maybe they're changing their colors (CSPAN I mean)?

It's a wonderful speech, even the fourth time!!! :-)

Yeah, the motto will be "Let's win this one for the Zipper."

I feel bad for some of the posters on this thread cheering Clintons misfortune.

I certainly don't like the man or his ex-wife but at a human level people should have sympathy for his suffering.

Health problems often transform a persons life, I can only wish him a speedy recovery.

[demlosers]

My thoughts exactly as I finish my onion rings.

All this food talk is making me hunger. I think I'll get a double whoppers and fries. Yummm...

"God's not finished with Bill Clinton yet.."

Maybe He is.

1 But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. 2 People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, 3 without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, 4 treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God-- 5 having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them.
6 They are the kind who worm their way into homes and gain control over weak-willed women, who are loaded down with sins and are swayed by all kinds of evil desires, 7 always learning but never able to acknowledge the truth. 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these men oppose the truth--men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected.
2 Timothy:1-8

Some rumors of a heart attack, story that there was an Angioplasty a few days ago, but apparently not enough.

I will not wish the man ill.

[tioga]

Father God, I ask you today to heal Bill Clinton and to reach deep into his soul and correct all that you would with it. This country has many mixed emotions about his life, heal this country. I ask this in Jesus name. Amen.

What do people mean "timing is suspicious". That Pres. clinton somehow , to attract attention away from Republican Convention, is staging a quadruple bypass surgury? --- Not exactly a small operation, quadruple bypass... are they actually performing the procedure or is Clinton just sittin in the O.R. with the doctors smoking a cigar with a bunch of hoochie mamas? --- what are you guys thinking?

Evidently he had been experiencing chest pain for several days and had an angioplasty in recent days.

Had they wanted to take the light off the Republican convention they 'could' have. Easily. Kisd of seems like they didn't want to. Yet it does come out just when Kerry is struggling to make a come back.

Just my opinion but people ought to be glad that they didn't take advantage of the situation and over shadow the RNC.

Surprised that Hillary isn't with him? NO, I'm not. Just another contrast with our WONDERFUL First Family!

[Mo1]

Chris Wallace on Fox is saying that Hillary is still "upstate."

That is really sad
