Could this news hinder a possible Petraeus Presidential run?

Shouldn't at all. Sen. John Kerry (Vietnam War Hero) had it and was able to run. Kerry and I both had surgery to remove the prostate gland in 2003 on the same day and are doing fine.

I had a relative who was diagnosed with prostate cancer in his 60's and died falling down some steps in his 90's. Many prostate cancers are very mild and easily treatable. Much depends on his gleason score and when he caught it.

Thank God he has his socialist health care.

Yeah, thank God he doesn't, which is why he might have a fighting chance.

Prayers up!

So you are bitching because your mother didn’t die before she needed custodial care so you could get the property or what?
Because that is sure what it sounds like. Get your OWN damn property. You wouldn’t have gotten it if it wasn’t hers to begin with. Maybe her life was more important to her than your whining, sniveling, greedy crap would suggest!
You people who wait for your parents to die so you can pick their bones make me sick.

“Do you also pray for your president?”

Oh yeah. I pray every day for him to be removed from office as soon as GOD figures we have been punished enough for putting him in there in the first place.

And you?

Wait. Never mind. You are too busy being p!ssed off cause mama didn’t croak soon enough for you to grab her property. Did she have jewelry you liked too? I doubt GOD would really want to hear much of what you have to say anyway.

Bob Dole had it too and he is still kicking and looking pretty spry. General Petraeus will have checkups and if he does decide to run for office, president or otherwise, I don’t think his health would be an issue. Clearly SOMEONE thought it might be. NYT contacted Gen. Petraeus, he didn’t contact them. So it had to have been leaked by the white tent since they had to be informed.
