I wish Clinton the best in health. I oppose him like a tiger on issues, but don't pray for his death. I am not like the ghouls that cheered Reagan's slow and steady demise. I hope you all aren't either.

I haven't looked at any of the responses on this thread yet. I hope that there are no cheers at his misfortune. You know the Media Wing of the DNC will be cruising this thread, looking for combustible remarks to exploit. Don't give them any ammo.

Remember, FR is NOT a private club -- it's open to the public. Don't be naive like "saracat," that DU whiner who wanted to find out if she could sue Opinion Journal's James Taranto after he linked and reprinted her "horrible experience" trying to sign young Democrats up for the Kerry camp.

We're better than that. We're smarter than that...I think. I hope.

Well, if you had read the whole thread, you would see that no one is wishing for Clinton to die. Some of us are speculating on what would happen if he did, and if there were another large presidential funeral during the last days of the campaign, and how and if it would affect the election outcome in any way.

IOW, we're doing what we always do--reading, analyzing, commenting, sending prayers, and making a few very mild wisecracks.

Don't get your shorts in a wad over it.

Hi
I don't have time to read the whole thread. Is there any news on his surgery?
