His votes to repeal Obamacare will inflict on millions of sick people with no health care insurance?
He gets the best of care.
Us?
Not so much.

That is what I wish, but given his lifetime views and policies, I don't hold out much hope. I do wish him a good recovery though.

I could go on and on but who couldn't see this coming? 150 years of hate and rascism by the Republicans and they now flood our country with guns? Yeah, there's mentally ill people out there that need help and instead of help the repukes give them guns!!
The true irony is this sexist, rascist, homophobic politician had his ass saved by two of ours.
Two Public Servants of color and one being a gay woman at that.
Who here thinks that if the shoe was on the other foot if any of those cowardly repuke lawmakers would have taken a bullet, or ran into gunfire to save the life of a gay black woman?
Hell no!
These people, the GOP, deserve zero sympathy. They had this coming.
