Urinal senility, that’s what it is.
McConnell and the Cheap Labor Express sunk to new lows to keep this stooge in the Senate.
Used Democrats in the primary to defeat the conservative.
Remember Mississippi!
UTI’s nasty business, especially as one gets older.
I didn’t realize he’d married his longtime mistress.
Trump said ‘a senator’ was in the hospital. That was funny the press calling him a liar.
Jingle time...
Call Roto-Rooter, that’s the name
and away go troubles down the drain...
Could be prostate cancer, too. They haven’t been on the up and up on this one.

Dementia. That is what it is.

Grapple with retirement.
At 79 y/o, Thad is just hitting his Senatorial stride. He’s a pup. So his pee is burning? Eat some asparagus and put a band aid on it.
Just remember, Ted Cruz gave them the money they used to smear Chris McDaniel with, as head of the NSRC.
Sometimes a UTI can turn into Sepsis, happened to a friend of mine’s father it was horrible..didnt get treatment, turned into Sepsis and had to be hospitalized
What good will putting a band-aid on asparagus do???
this is really important news because politicians are way more valuable than us little no-bodys outside of the castle gates [/sarc]
I hope they give him massive amounts of the right strong antibiotics to help him recover.
Yes, and I thought about mentioning that. The Cruzers really don’t like being reminded that St. Ted is not who they think he is.
He’s more like Elmer Gantry.
No, Thad needs to eat the asparagus and put a band aid on his Schumer.
