Whose fault it is then? Smoking is a CHOICE.

Do you think she has found something more dangerous than guns?

A 5 day waiting period on cigarettes and this never would have happened.
Seriously...as much as I can't stand her, this is something I wouldn't wish on anyone (except Osama). Did they say it was fatal or was it discovered in time?

Don't anybody gloat. Don't do it. She is politically totally 100% wrong, but lets draw the line there.
'kay?
I mean, I personally am so tempted, but if *I* can control it......then YOU can.....

I wouldn't wish this on her. But I hope her successful convalescence gives her time to rethink her assaults on American freedom.

Sad. But we already knew that she wasn't too bright.

MSNBC Article Here - It's really short
I'm sorry, but I have no sympathy for her whatsoever. I say this as a gun owner and a smoker.

"NBC News is reporting that Sarah Brady has lung cancer because of her addiction to cigarettes. "
Those smoking bullets will take a person out, but they are more slow than the real thing. A lingering death of lung cancer is a bad way to go.
To: Amore
Could it have happened to a nicer person?
My mom died from emphysema and was totally addicted to smoking. Near the end, walking around pulling a little portable oxygen tank, she said she'd rather smoke than breathe.
Funny, both my parents smoked like chimneys most of their lives and I've never smoked a day in my life except for a few of those "funny" cigarettes when I was trying to talk some girl out of her pants.
I'm not a big anti-smoking fanatic though, I don't like telling people what to do or how to live. I don't want people smoking on planes or next to me in a restaurant or in the movies, but that's about it. I hate self-righteous busy body fascists. Freedom is the most important thing in the world to me.

what was the point of this nbc news piece? was it for sympathy? a stike against low tar cigaretts?
To: Amore
A horrible and painful illness. Usually a death sentence. May she have a complete healing.

She HAS lung cancer already so where is the incentive to quit? The cancer isn't going away if she quits smoking. I have always heard that 'cancer cures smoking' but that is only in the final stages.

Just great. Now she will start a combined law suit against all states because she wanted to use a gun to end her life because she was dying of secondhand smoke caused by her smoking and rebreathing her own smoke, but she had a Brady waiting period and could not do it so she had to suffer.......or am I missing something.

Annual death rate comparison by cause.
If Sarah Brady were honestly trying to reduce deaths in America, she would leave guns alone and go after smokers - forming The Brady Campaign to Reduce Smoking Casualties or something.
That she does not indicates that she is a hypocrite. It also indicates she doesn't care about deaths themselves - and therefore that she is going after guns and gun owners for a different reason other than death rates.
Now, class, why do you suppose this is?
To: Amore
And they say there's NEVER any good news.

This is sad news. Mrs. Brady has had a tragic life. Married to a brilliant man who had half his brain blown away. She remains loyal to her marriage vows. She stayed with him, a semi-invalid, through thick and through thin. She really and truly believes in the cause she advocates.
While I do not agree with her on gun control, I admire her for standing by her husband in good times and in bad, as the marriage vows proclaim.
I hope Sara gets excellent treatment for her cancer, and that the time she has left will be peaceful and serene.
