Monday, July 30, 2007

He is staying in Penobscot Bay Medical Center overnight for observation, court officials told FOX News.

It’s always amusing when the libs mention the Constitution. It’s a document the left loves to use for toilet paper.....

I’m surprised the libs mentioned God as well.
I thought their God was Big Government.

Glad he’s doing okay. Are his doctors liberals? Remember Reagan asked his docs if they were democrats.

Ted Kennedy is like a beach ball. If he falls, he just bounces right along.

DU and Kos will be praying for his death.

.....................

I would not pray for any ones death...but I will say this, If Ginsburg and the lefty`s on the court should pass on? It would call for Praise to OUR GOD, The Lord Jesus Christ.

Before any one slams me, Mary and Joseph and the gang, gave praise to God when they got word that King Herod had died. It will be a good day when room becomes available for another Roberts or Alito on the High Court.

God Bless Justice Roberts!

I thought Fox News changed their name to the LOHAN CHANNEL last week. (except for when Cavuto has strippers on his show talking about their latest porn movie).

Wait...the 52 year old guy took a fall and is going to the hospital, not the 82 year old one?

JPS is 87

Why couldn’t it have been Ginsburg, Souter, or Breyer?????

The above have lifealert necklaces. "Help, I'm a fallen socialist and I can't get up."

The speculation begins....MSNBC is saying Justice Roberts had a seizure in 1993 and that it was not considered life threatening, but that he was told not to drive for a while.

Be strong Justice Roberts. Get well...there are many horrors that your court needs to overcome.

Gob bless all the conservative justices!

And yet - Ted Kennedy can walk drunk for 30 years without even a scratch...

That ever got reported.

I just read that he had an isolated seizure in 1993. That's worrisome.
