This will avert any criminal findings on his sweetheart house deal.

He has the best health care in the U.S. Stage one is very treatable. He will be fine.

Big hairy deal. It is said that every man who lives to 100 would have it, but because it is such a slow growing cancer, people would die of old age before the cancer.

Prostate cancer is one of the most treatable forms of cancer today.

If only they could treat his brain as easily.

My urologist told me that every single older man has the beginnings of prostrate cancer, how advanced it is is what you need to worry about.

The timing to too suspect here, I have a feeling this will be used as an excuse for something else.

This guy has already been proven a liar.

Dear Chris:

We know you’re corrupt ‘rat friends will keep you out of prison. Please go enjoy your socialist medicine outside our country.

Thanks

I don’t wish it on the guy.

I hope he gets better and decides to retire from the senate.

I have half a dozen conditions more serious than Dodd’s, but it’s ALL over the news. But not a word about this:

Border Patrol Agent Robert Rosas funeral is scheduled for 9:00 A.M. Friday, July 31, 2009 at Southwest High School, followed by interment at Evergreen cemetary, both in El Centro, CA. IN MEMORIAM BPA Robert Rosas

On July 23, 2009, Border Patrol Agent Robert W. Rosas was shot to death by border bandits while carrying out the oath he swore three years ago. He was 30 years old. He leaves a young wife and two small children. May he rest in peace.

Murdered by illegal aliens from Mexico last week defending our borders... NOTHING from the Mainstream Media! And the retired border agents I speak with are heartbroken and feel betrayed...again.

When my 81-year-old dad was diagnosed, I did a lot of research and found that there are basically two kinds of prostate cancers, the slow-and-common asymptomatic type (which he has), and the aggressive-but-rare type.

It seems Dodd got the common one.

I seem to also recall conceptually that most men living into their 80s can expect to get the slow-and-common type and the medical response is “so what?” because the solution is far riskier than just living with it.

It’s very curable. He’ll live another twenty years...hopefully, some of them in prison.

OK....so what is the big deal.

Prostate cancer is diagnosed every 2 3/4 minutes in this country. Again, what is the big deal, because it is happening to a corrupt politician? But yeah, lets have a sympathy and pity party for the idiotic moron while forgeting the other fellow who is diagnosed with the same thing 2 3.4 minutes after he Dodd was....maybe we can get a TV news conference from them, as well.... =.=

This is BS.

It’s nothing more than a ploy to get sympathy since he’s getting hammered in the polls.

Hm...

Well look on the bright side Mr Dodd, you won’t have a bunch of government types deciding how useful you are to society before green lighting your surgery. :)

Maybe Chris should show a demo on how the government will care for us if we end up with cancer as well. Good opportunity for an 0bamaCare test run.

He should follow the advice of the President and just take some pain pills.
