This is why America hates Hollywood.
Late night “funny” man Jimmy Kimmel delivered a heart-wrenching monologue Monday night that every mother and every father could relate to.
In the emotion-drunk moments last month after the birth of their son — still in the hospital room surrounded by nurses and euphoric family — he and his wife watched their boy turn blue and got the terrifying news that something was wrong with his heart. Or lungs. Or both.
Mr. Kimmel called it the “longest three hours of my life” as more nurses and doctors and machines crowded into the room and his little infant boy was cut open for emergency open-heart surgery. Which, thank the Lord, was successful.
Understandably, Mr. Kimmel could not get through the story without breaking down in tears throughout the telling.
And then his monologue went horribly awry.
Here was this moment highlighting the preciousness of life, the heroism of nurses, the unmatched expertise of surgeons and the magical power of family. And what is the point of it all for Jimmy Kimmel?
Politics. Grubby, dirty politics.
“I want to say one other thing,” Mr. Kimmel said after thanking all the people who just saved his baby son’s life, spared his family from a lifelong misery and supported them all through the whole traumatic ordeal.
“President Trump last month proposed a $6 billion cut in funding to the National Institute of Health,” the “funny” man continued. “And, thank God, our congressmen made a deal last night to not go along with that.”
It was suddenly as if instead of bringing forth into life an exquisite bundle of joy, Mr. Kimmel had been handed a stupid golden statue . . .

As though another reason . . . you know the rest by now.
PING!
Jimmy Kimmel need to than God for the healing work He did through those doctors.
Another bogus comment from Kimmler.
I read about him on another site and was so disgusted. As a mother who’s has to deal with something similar, it pissed me off to see him wanting socialized medicine (for everyone else of course). They don’t take too kindly to the weak or other lives in general.
The NFL on Fox panel HATED Kimmel (When Kimmel was doing his picks). Howie Long wanted to beat him to a pulp, because his jokes against them were so distasteful.
This is how “progressives” show compassion.
Nonetheless, I’m glad his son is OK.
Kimmel is lucky his Kid wasn’t born in Venezuela or a host of other Liberal Utopias throughout the World.
Great story these doctors were able to save his son. He should have just left it at that.
It’s like (for Kimmel) now that I got your very emotional attention, allow me to use it to advance my leftist agenda.
These libtards just can’t help themselves to use any opportunity to advance their agenda. Disgusting! No wonder Americans continue to reject them.
CGato
Our taxpayer dollars are already paying for socialized medicine for the Iraqis. I’d rather see it go to Americans, rather than people who will come over here and try to kill us.
kimmel wanted everyoen to believe that if they don’t have obamacare, their sons and daughters will die because they ‘can’t afford medical care’-
He was disingenuous, and deceitful because for decades now, hospitals have always covered the care for those who couldn’t afford it-
In a sense we’ve had socialized medical care for decades now- Yet Kimmel deceitfully made it appear that poor people wouldn’t get the best care possible- nonsense! I personally know many folks who got excellent care who couldn’t afford it and couldn’t afford health care— some folk’s lives were saved several times- while undergoing very expensive treatments and surgeries-
Lik Charles Hurt stated- Kimmel would have everyone believe that if they don’t support a bloated socialist agenda driven healthcare system that WILL leave our kids saddled with debt for decades to come, then they must want kids to die-
Kimmel- we’re sorry you had to face what you did- and that your child had to endure what it did- but politicizing it in defense of a horrible liberal socialistic mandate was flat out wrong!
Wow these people are skewy nuts.The Doc’s just saved his baby’s life which his wife could have aborted at any minute until birth.Shaking my head.Maybe he was told to say it.Keepin his job and all that his ratings are down.
Kimmel is not truthful.
No doctor will leave a child to die.
Am glad I don’t watch his show.
Kimmel is not the same guy that he was back when he did “The Man Show.”
What’s up with some of the late night people? Kimmel is cross eyed and Colbert’s right ear looks like it was reattached after a bear got it.
Back before Letterman became cranky and political, he had a heart procedure done, and when he returned to the show, had all his doctors come out and take a bow. It was both funny and touching. Now EVERYTHING has to be political for the DNC sycophants who infest the media.
nor will a doctor or surgeon give a child crappy surgery or crappy health care because his parents can’t afford health care insurance-
I don’t listen to Kimmel because as a man, you never base important decisions on a woman’s emotional histrionics.
Well-played.
