Prayers he decides to retire to recover and enjoy what’s left of his life.

That’s the unfortunate truth. Very few who dedicate their lives to Satan ever change their minds.

Where there's life, there's hope.

“””””TREATABLE stomach cancer?? Isn’t this one of the cancer’s which is quite serious/deadly in a short amount of time???””””””””

My 51 year old neighbor had very treatable cancer. She was a very active and otherwise healthy person. I went to her funeral in January.

My prayers are for his soul. I hate to see people choose to donate their souls to fuel the fires of hell. It would be nice if he’d see the light and choose to serve God.

Yours is the nicest post I've seen in a awhile. I agree with your sentiments.

One less vote for 0bamacare as long as he’s in the hospital. So this is a good thing.

And I said that because the guy is 86 years old. Who wants to be Obama’s bitch until he dies? Yeeesh.

Lautenberg had retired years ago, but was brought back in to replace candidate Bob Torricelli who was up to his eyeballs in a bribery scandal.

link

Torricelli would have been the only democrat in the state who could have lost that election in a very blue state (back then.) The powers that be "convinced" "The Torch" to step down, and he was replaced, as a candidate, with the avuncular Mr. Lautenberg, who did so little in his previous incarnation as a senator, that he didn't make many enemies.

The N.J. Supreme Court, completely packed with liberals, ignored the state law that did not allow a change in candidates past a certain deadline (which had long since passed,) and allowed the substitution.

And now you know the rest of the story, as Paul Harvey used to say.

Here’s hoping he won’t finish his term.

RE “...Prayers up...”

Tell you what: I’ll pray for him IF he steps down.

He’s directly AND indirectly responsible for the deaths of innocent men, women and children that were DENIED the means to defend themselves with the anti-gun laws he pushed through and had passed.

I have no remorse about it. Sorry.

Wait, I thought he fell, or had an ulcer. Now it is “curable” stomach cancer

My Father-in-Law had inoperable cancer (he died about a year and a half ago.)

One of the first signs that something was wrong was when he started falling down for no apparent reason. After about 2 or 3 times, we took him to the Doctor and that's when the problem was found.

86, stomach cancer!? Under Obama-care his case should be presented for the board and maybe what he really needs is a pill.

The disgusting Torricelli / Lautenberg swap was truly criminal in nature.
What a disaster for the people of New Jersey and the country in general.

Prayers for Senator Lautenberg.

But, independent of his illness, I wish that he would retire.
