My point exactly. Yet the MSM trots out his past addiction even though, at least as yet, there's absolutely no evidence it's pertinent to his present health problems.

Yeah, if Limbaugh was a liberal, they'd be running him in public service announcements left and right. The most popular and successful radio personality in history is totally deaf. That's incredible, but they would rather die than give him credit for anything.

I remember an exhibit at Fair Park in Dallas where they were giving tribute to Americans who had made contributions in their later years. They listed Bess Truman, who did some philanthropic work in her sixties, but left out Ronald Reagan, the oldest person ever elected President.

I also remember when the editor of the NY Times said that John Kerry was the first legitimate war hero to run for president since Kennedy. He conveniently forgot that GHWB was the youngest pilot in the Pacific theater, and was once shot down and spent three days floating in the Pacific before being rescued. He also forgot Bob Dole, who lost the use of his right arm during WWII. Of course, he also forgot George McGovern, who had a distinguished military career, but everyone tries to forget McGovern.

Knowing what we know now, it's really, really hard to think of John Kerry as a "war hero". More like a "traitor".

Of course, it's the NY Times...
