Senator Tim Johnson from South Dakota has, as you’re certainly aware, suffered a stroke and is in critical condition following brain surgery. The Captain commits an act of gross class by being one of the first bloggers to say what ought to be said:\n<\/p>\n
\nPray For Tim Johnson <\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nBut just as important as what the Captain says is what he doesn’t say, such as, “We can make him better than he was before.” “Better?” “Smarter, more conservative.” Or, “His first words when he came out of anaesthesia were, “I’m still not as dumb as Robert Byrd.”\n<\/p>\n \nHowever, there are idiots everywhere, including Pam Spaulding at Pandagon, whose first thought is:\n<\/p>\n \nSenate in the balance? Dem senator reportedly has stroke<\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nor Kangaroo Brisbane at ReBelle Nation:\n<\/p>\n \nOhhhhhhhh Shit Shit Shit, This cant be happening, can it?<\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nWho adds, to news that a spokesperson said yesterday that it wasn’t a stroke:\n<\/p>\n Good Man, don’t you scare the shit out of me like that again, we just finally got rid of the wankers.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n \nConspiracy theorists are already on the case<\/a>, and soon we’ll be hearing whispers about Polonium-210.\n<\/p>\n\n
