NEW YORK (Reuters) - Former President Bill Clinton has checked into a New York hospital and will undergo heart bypass surgery, U.S. networks reported on Friday.
ABC and CBS television reported that Clinton, 58, had checked into New York Presbyterian Hospital for quadruple heart bypass surgery.
A Democratic Party official told Reuters that Clinton had checked into the hospital with "chest pains." The source, who spoke on condition of anonymity, could not confirm that Clinton would undergo bypass surgery.
CNN quoted a source close to the former president as saying the surgery could take place as early as Saturday.
Clinton, the 42nd U.S. president, promised at the Democratic convention in July to be a "foot soldier" in John Kerry's race against Republican President Bush.
........and then go directly to jail for selling secrets to the Chinese, etc.
Will keep President Clinton in prayers, and hope for a speedy recovery.
Is Hillary going to visit him in the hospital for the photo op?
No, if this were a publicity stunt as you imply, the would have announced to the media yesterday.
I agree with you, both. Can you imagine the "martyred widow" card in the hands of She Who Must Not Be Named?
"I implore my fellow FReepers to exercise some modicum of good taste on this thread..."
The Heavenly Father's "WILL" will be done.
Amazing that this was kept quiet, not even on Drudge.
Isn't that "doctor shopping"? I thought that was illegal.
Fox, just reported that he had NOT suffered a HEART ATTACK, but a day ago he was experiencing chest pains! Surgery will not take place until probably next week....TALK ABOUT POLITICIAL THEATRICAL STUNTS...this guy is king!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! Thanx.
Voted against him twice, STILL wish him the best and I pray for his quick recovery......
What would we all do without Bill Clinton to kick around?
A speedy recovery to the X-42!
Besides, he has to live in order to be indicted for all the cr@p he and Hill did while he was president.
Much as I dislike him. I don't wish him illness of this sort. I hope he recovers. But look at this thread and compare it to what the DUh's would be saying about President Bush. Therein lies the difference between conservatives and liberals.
Right, and after he recovers from surgery he can sue McDonald's...maybe he can hire John Edwards to handle the case.
Best wishes for a speedy recovery.
Planned or not, this will eat into Kerry's face time.
I'll wish him well...as long as he doesn't blame his chest pains on Zell Miller.
Well, I think the guy is total putz as President, but I don't wish ill on anyone. Get well, Mr. Clinton.
I actually have great respect for the Clinton's for keeping this quiet yesterday during the GOP Convention.
hope he lives to see another day.
Call me cynical, but I don't believe it.
What is his angle???
