PLEASE keep praying for @gatewaypundit Jim Hoft, who is undergoing heart surgery this morning. #getwelljim
Jim Hoft is a FReeper who has made a name for himself as The Gateway Pundit by being a bold, independent conservative blogger. For being effective, Jim became a regular target of Media Matters and other leftists.
Jim is also a very nice man who has made friends across the country in his travels speaking at Tea Party rallies and meetings.
Jim has published my articles at times and is always gracious in crediting FR when he picks up stories from here. One of our last collaborations, which garnered a Drudge link, was on the story of the leftist from Austin, Texas who posed as a racist conservative at a Houston pro-George Zimmerman march.
From what has been posted at the Gateway Pundit by guest bloggers and by some who have visited him at the hospital, Jim came down with a nasty blood infection awhile after knee replacement surgery. The infection has lodged in his aorta, from what I've heard, and that is what is being addressed today.
Please keep Jim Hoft in your prayers today and in the future. Thank you.
Prayers up!
Prayers for the entire staff responsible for him, and for his complete recovery.

Jim is stable. Hopefully, the worst is over, and it is, now, time for recovery. He is in a lot of pain and will need all your prayers for today and the rest of the week. As Jim always says to me, God bless you for all your kind thoughts and prayers that you have shared all along.
Continued prayers for a full and speedy recovery.
Definitely prayers up!
How sad he had to go through all of this agony because of a "simple" knee replacement... :-(
Prayers sent, for Jim’s full recovery and comfort.

Whoa, that sounds really serious. Prayers are definitely in order.
