Off the top of my head, I know Webb and McCain have children in the military.
We've often heard of "bleeding heart liberals". Now we know of one "bleeding head liberal".
Have you all noticed that there was no briefing by a Doctor.
That is pretty damning that the Dems did not want anyone to know how much and to what extent the damage was. Harry Reid wasn't ther all night and day for nothing. Reid is a snake.
Confirm this fact is also being reported on radio broadcasts.NPR played the conference call as recorded and the verbal confusion suffered by the Senator as the medical event occured.( sic!)
The neurological damage of Asteriovenous Malformation can be similar to a stroke in which blood vessels rupture. The extent of the damage cannot be assessed until aftercorrective surgey, and in this case, will likely take a long time.
I feel sorry that he is caught in the middle of power politics, but the reality is that he likely will have to be replaced, and the Republican Governor will undoubtedly appoint a Republican, thus changing the balance of power in the Senate.
Yes, I noticed that. Practically any medical crisis that makes the news is soon followed by the physician/surgeon giving a press conference. I don't know if it means Johnson is far worse than believed or if it's just too early for doctors to go on the record but it does seem odd not to hear from them.
Unless he dies he will not be replaced. There will be no change in power in the Senate.
Very Sad. I pray he makes a full recovery and my thoughts are with his family at this time. I wouldn't even wish a stroke on Pelosi or Teddy the Tippler.
He's Republican... which would bring us to a 50/50. And the Pres of the Senate is a Republican too!
Yeah, tough break. Get well soon, Tom.
"Yeah, tough break. Get well soon, Tom."
I also hope he Senator Johnson gets well soon. Are there any updates on how he is doing?
It was a joke. Guess you didn't see the cartoon.
