High blood pressure can range from moderate; controllable through diet and exercise to uncontrollable morbid.
Heart trouble can range from a blip on the ekg or occaisional racing to enlarged heart, major blockages or severe arrythmia.
This judge does not have the credentials to pronounce anyone dead, let alone such an important figure at such a pivotal time in history.
That judge sounded out of line, red flags went up first time I saw a couple things there. Maybe following orders. There I go.
The doctor supposedly told the judge over the phone that Scalia had been in twice the week before and other medical issues. One early article I read sounded like Scalia didn't feel well the night before, was lethargic, and stayed in the vehicle and watched the hunt. A subsequent article said he was along to observe.
Why would a sick man go on a hunt on a remote Texas ranch? Why did he have no SS protection, or was that wrong?
Are not in most jurisdictions autopsies mandatory over the objections of family for not just suspicious but when the person is found dead? I never read who Scalia's next-of-kin were.
Then my mind goes where it shouldn't. Yeah but if they'd had an autopsy, would I believe it? No. Not when that judge was involved. Another one, maybe.
Now the unseemly bickering over the next justice, Obama conniving, Grassley digging in, then relenting a little, and the justice isn't even buried yet.
Still, it would be a stretch to believe foul play was involved. But maybe something had started some time before . . . . .that's how it goes when people lose their trust.
I guess it's like my reaction when Princess Diana died (or JFK, Jr.), first shock, then my thoughts go right to "how convenient". But I never could settle my mind for certain one way or another.
Obama has an anti-gun agenda. The most conservative justice who is allegedly unwell, goes on a hunt, where guns will be fired, to observe. Was he carrying a weapon? We aren't told. Did he take a weapon on the trip? We aren't told. And dies in his sleep. It happens.
Read this today, thought it myself, if the Senate tries to block a nomination, especially of a female minority, it will benefit Hillary in the election.
Let's hope it doesn't turn into another, "I won, I guess that trumps you . . ." an Obama quote that has disappeared into the cyber black hole from all but one site that on observation doesn't look very credible. But I saw the clip and heard him say the words, just can't remember the occasion and person to whom he said them . . .
