Does anyone know why Chris Matthews was sick? Like what he just said....

[NotThisTime]

I know he missed quite a lot of time during the summer, but I'm watching him now, and last week, he seems healthy, did he have a health crisis over the summer?

I love what he just said about burning quotes like the one KO just read in regards to what Rove said about Tim Kaine.... 3 year governor, 105th largest city, he's not ready, rah, rah, rah... KO, so what does McCain do about quotes like this? Chris? Burn them LOL....

He really does need to own his baldness and skip the blonde dye job.

Chris, bald is beautiful!

4. I didn't hear about the pneumonia, but that he had a diabetic attack.

Apparently he has diabetes and he was not paying good attention to his readings.

5. OMG, it's good he was able to get care, but to take that much time off, he must have been awfully

ill - that saddens me.

9. I think everyone was worried about him. Diabetes can be death threatning.

Before that episonde, I didn't know Tweety had Diabetes. Sometimes, even if you're very careful with your diet, things can go bad. I wish him well.

7. He's had bouts of malaria, too.

He was in the hospital quite a while last year or so.
