Bill Clinton rushed to Columbia Hostpital in NY for quadruple bypass surgery.
Hubby and I pray for the Clintons, Kerry's and other libs every day now. I pray for their salvation most of all. THAT is the only thing that can change their hearts.
Yep. Dems will blame President Bush for sure.
Hillary said she had to keep her comments short because she's going back to New York City. Hillary's on her way back now. It's not so serious that he's going to die immediately. The surgery's not even scheduled yet, AFAIK.
I doubt it. His health is overshadowing Kerry more than Bush. In fact, right now it's having a demoralizing effect on left-leaning swing voters and Democrat voters alike.
About all we're seeing right now is that Bill Clinton can completely eclipse John F'n Kerry without trying.
Now if he makes an incredibly speedy recovery and hits the campaign trail to get his voter base to vote John Kerry out of loyalty to HIM (he'd be implying his days are numbered) then the questions of timing will cease to be jokes and become extremely valid questions.
He was at Westchester Medical Center. My wife works there- She saw Secret Service & State troopers all over the place this AM...

I know he's at one of the best hospitals. I probably helped design half the stuff they use in their Cardiac Units... ;0)
True. I have been thinking same.
'Heart- lung machine'. I had a quintuple. I was out cold- no near-death things or anything- but I almost drowned when I has a pulumonory edema (lungs suddenly flood with the body's water) as I was coming out of the anaesthesia.
Exactly as I feel. I despise the man and what he did to the honor of our country and the office he held, but he still is a human being and deserves our prayers. I would not shake his hand if I had to no matter what and I will agree that I also thought the timing was very suspicious.
I want to see the scars for proof.

Either they didn't get their stories straight - is it newsworthy or not? If so, they why is Hillary still at the fund-raiser. If it isn't, they why waste time on it?
Talk to me after the surgery.
I agree with you premise of public not watching it, however it would be covered by the MSM 24/7 for at least a week or more, giving the Dems and Kerry free air time. Kerry will use it for his advantage just as the Clintons used tragedies for political purposes. The MSM would push this hard.
"Let's hope he makes it. Wellstone's funeral would be nothing compared to what they'll give us if X42 kicks the bucket."
According to the press, he hasn't filed a plan for his funeral . So guess who would get to plan it? That's scary, disgusting.
"George Bush will shine in this moment because he will reach out, and pray for Clintoon and his evil wife. He and his family will "bond" with the toon and ask us all to pray for Bill.
"
No doubt he will. He's a classy guy. He'll probably even show enough class not to refer to Clinton as "Clintoon."
Imagine if Clinton had had his heart attack five or six years ago. We'd have had a reprise of Woodrow Wilson's last 18 months in office: a "petticoat government" run by the First Lady on behalf of a bedridden invalid President.
They why release news to the press at 12:00 the day after the RNC convention?
It's just so....typical.
I know Bush will be real and caring in all of this.
Hillary is the one that needs her head examined. They just showed footage of her at that speaking engagement today...which was taped well after the press found out that Bill went into the hospital.
When she got word that he was checked in...which was well before the press found out.....she should have canceled the campaign stuff she had going on...even the stuff early in the afternoon...And got to her husband's side.
She just put politics over family.
Look...These surgeries are done by the 1000s everyday....and Bill will be fine.....but she still should have gone to where he was at....right away.
Actually the media did by printing Starr's report in every evening paper. Besides, that argument is so freaking tired and old. Newsflash: People had plenty of oral sex long before Clinton made it into office.
Don't wish him well. You don't have to like someone to wish them well. Don't bitch though when people on the otherside extend the same courtesy.
You just don't get it.
Obviously I do get it. You made a baseless claim. I called you on it to correct your error or back up your claim. You did neither. Like Kerry's mouthpieces you are unresponsive. Instead, you post a silly graphic.
I like the cut of your jib!
