POLITICS: Clinton In Surgery

Former president Bill Clinton was admitted to Columbia Presbyterian Hospital on Friday for heart bypass surgery after complaining of mild chest pain.

The former Commander in Chief was seen at Westchester Hospital in New York yesterday, where tests revealed arterial blockage and heart disease. He is expected to undergo quadruple bypass surgery.

Clinton, 58, has no history of heart problems and is expected to recover.

Hey, Bill, if you're reading this, get well soon!

I wish him well, too.

But I think I got a bigger smile at the idea that he's reading this.

Anyone know his e-mail address? I'm gonna buy him a gift membership as a get well present.

What's Clinton's position on seeing more spread of the leg?

Joking aside, get well Bill.

I saw Mr. Clinton in the airport a few years ago when our school band was heading home from a festival. He stopped, talked to a few students, shook some hands. He seems like a nice guy. The Secret Service guys were pissed though...

Clinton has no history of heart.. hmm...

I have a feeling the opposite is true. I think his heart is sometimes bigger than his brain.

Hee, I wouldn't put it past him.

I freaked when I saw it on my news email. He'll be fine though, he gets by on everything.

I bet he's fantasizing about the nurse thing right now.

I hope he's not. I believed Sen. Rodham is at his side.

I question the timing of his heart attack. Bush has a great convention, then all of a sudden Clinton has a heart attack? How convenient. He's obviously trying to steal Bush's thunder.

stock said something funny.

Let's wait until he recovers to make jokes, huh?

You know he is.

what, are we gonna sue clintons doctor now?

i send him my best wishes. clinton was a great president in my book, and a good guy. aaaand a damn fine speaker.

Yeah, I wouldn't wish a quadruple bypass on anyone. I'm sure he'll pull through.

*sigh* I miss the days of Clinton...I wish him a speedy recovery.

i agree. his speech at the DNC had my cock up all the day.

Argh. Thanks for pointing that out, it's been fixed. Sorry about the error.

my father had a quadruple bypass about ten years ago and, no exaggeration, nearly died on the operating table. so although the outlook is good for the bill (thank god) surgery of this severity is no joke. my heart is with you bill!

Get Well Bill! We love you! Please get well quick so you can get back on the campaign trail and help Kerry take our country back (and Kerry could admittedly use the help!)

Get well Bill. He is the only person I ever voted for, I was hung over on the 2000 election day. Anyway if I still prayed my prayers would be with Mr Clinton.

I still like Clinton. I'd like to hang out with the guy sometime.

We could go cruisin' for chicks...!
