Sen. Kerry has hip surgery to address chronic pain August 17, 2009

BOSTON—Sen. John Kerry and his daughter Vanessa are sporting his-and-her crutches.

The 65-year-old Massachusetts Democrat had surgery last week on his hip to address chronic pain and flexibility issues.

No doubt the result of an old football injury...

[workerbee]

Old war injury.

He was in Vietnam, ya know.

[nufsed]

But Christmas in Cambodia.

[D-fendr]

65? Old as Obama’s grandmother. He should have just taken the pill.

[King Moonracer]

Did Theresa’s strap-on explode?

[cripplecreek]

Threw his hip out throwing some medals over a wall somewhere.

[cmonkey]

Has a commission determined the medical value to society of a vain preening gigolo?

[Sub-Driver]

does he get purple heart?

[Dutch Boy]

I just assumed he wore it out sticking his foot in his mouth so often.

So he'll no longer BE a chronic pain?

[Right Wing Assault]

Old war injury.

Yeah, they removed another grain of rice from his hip.

[LucyJo]

Nah...my hubby says it’s probably an old war wound. Kerry was in Viet Nam.

[LucyJo]

LOL. Just saw your post. My husband said the same thing.

[samtheman]

Cambodian War Wound.

[minip]

Wow! Wonder how much that cost us?

[buccaneer81]

The usually clean-shaven Kerry also sported a beard, but his spokeswoman says it's only temporary during his recovery.

Now he looks like one of his idols...

[llevrok]

Too bad he didn't have that pain in the arse looked at.

What? That's not his wife?

Never mind.

[mass55th]

Probably had to remove one of those rice kernals imbedded in his a$$.

[Fireone]

All of his constant flip-flopping was bound to cause an
injury.

[Murp]

Too old. Shoulda took a pain pill!
