Nice little dust up at the end of the Fox panel over Juan’s exceptionally dumb remarks about the weasels at the State Department.

I was glad to see that Hume and Kristol thought that Croddy’s performance was an absolute disgrace and a big black mark for State.

Rudy is “cured”, he is past the 5 year mark without recurrence, while Fred is still has the active disease while he is in remission. McCain also has been cured, although his disease does have late effects that tend to swell up his cheek (where the melanoma was removed).
A 5 year Prostate cancer survival rate is 99 %

while NHL that Fred has is only 50-60% with the median life span of 10 years.

These are starkly different diseases and outcomes.

For all of our candidates I would like to see them discuss and disclose their medical records, and I would like it done now, rather than after the MSM disclose it for them.

One last question, what percentage of voters know about Freds
cancer? Also do you think this info will change any general
election voters minds?
