This morning, a team of medical doctors and neurosurgeons from Huron Hospital and Cleveland Clinic evaluated her medical condition and determined that she has very limited brain function.


That does not sound like a good prognosis.


FOX NEWS had her dead, wishfull thinking on thier part I'm sure....

UPDATE: US Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, 58, dies

I wonder if she knew what happened to her?

We're dying to find out how she is.

Look at all the compassion on this thread; it is so heartwarming. You should all be so proud.

Well Tax. It's one thing to make snide jokes regarding a single sentence in the article, another to celebrate the demise of another human being--as in the Jerry Falwell thread. And dozens of others.

I am channeling Joe here, but are you saying because someone else did something heartless, it makes it ok for you to be heartless?

Granted, Taxman, what I've seen in this thread is nothing compared to what I saw when Rehnquist died. There was actual venom there.

Wow the "curse" of the super delegates.

I will definitely give you that.

R.I.P.

ASSHOLE she is dead you fuck. Maybe they knew before the signal got to your parents basement.

Making a BUNCH of assumptions there-aren't you retardedandlovin'it?

Not nearly as compassionate as when Tony Snow died.

May whatever god she worships bless her family at this time. She was a brave and proud woman from what I have read. She will be remembered.

Added to the Obama "death list" by the PUMAs in 3, 2, 1.....

The radio announced she had died. Then Fox was showing that she was still alive.

Then the radio says she had the aneurysm in a part of the brain that could not be assessed.


Thoughts and prayers for her and her family.

Does this mean she won't be going to the dnc convention afterall ? Just wonderin' .
Now I'm hearing that Putin is going to show up at the dnc con. and bitch slap obama on national TV , that way the whole world will know who obama/clinton is in lockstep with.

Rightnut-
re: "Now I'm hearing that Putin is going to show up at the dnc con. and bitch slap obama on national TV , that way the whole world will know who obama/clinton is in lockstep with."

You think they are in cahoots with the Russians? (Damn, don't tell me they looked into his soul too!)

Rightnut-
Maybe if you're lucky, Bush will start a war with Russia before he leaves office. Of course, he'll need volunteers, as he has squandered the army he had - are you busy?

Wasn't there another Dem representative who had a brain aneurysm? How is he doing?

Someone Johnson from SD. Don't know how he's doing. He probably died a long time ago, but the dems have a look alike proxy. Ever see the movie "Dave"? I love Sigourney Weaver

Your blue web whatever it's called filter will probably block this one, but if not, here's one for you guys to enjoy out there on the rig

Sigourney Weaver

Yes it was blocked.

But let me guess: Was it that picture of her braless in a sweat soaked tight fitting white button blouse smoking a cigarette? Looked like it came out of a Tennessee Williams play?

Though I'm not a smoker, I find that picture extremely sexy.

No, it was a shot of her naked from the waist up laying back in a bathtub.
Guess, you'll just have to wait until you get home.

This photo linked below is the one you were describing, Goat, but you might not be able to get this thru your rig's web filter either. It's a tougher censor than a group of nuns .

try once more -- good luck -- otherwise you'll have to just forget it

Sigourney Weaver

Filter got it. But I don't need to see it. It's firmly implanted in a file in my mind that I access when I want some good J.O. material.

Most large employers use the blue coat web filter but they have had trouble blocking the same photos on Google and Yahoo search engines. Some sort of loophole that got through the filter.

I'm curious -- are you able to bring up this google page of Sigourney Weaver photos? Or does your web filter block google too -- even though most of the photos aren't suggestive.

Sigourney weaver - google page

Good luck. That's my last try.

Yes, that is the only way we can get nekkid pictures from the web on the rig -- the thumbnails on google searches still come through. But we can't get through the iron curtain when we try to link to them.

Well, then you'll see my first linked photo on that page -- only thumbnail size.
You'll just have to use your imagination to turn it into an 8" x 10" :)

The second one is nice, too. I bought the DVD Alien and watch it over and over just for that scene in the end. I have to discipline myself not to skip to that part.

Way too young. RIP

The Democrat Party has awe-inspiring dedication by its members. It's quite likely that Rep. Tubbs, a superdelegate, will be able to vote at the convention. It's called the Chicago Maneuver. The dead voting is an old Democrat practice. Tens of thousands of the dead have voted for Democrat candidates in the past, and undoubtedly shall continue to do so. The ghoul party. The Democrats.

Geeze, that's not very nice, Johnson.
At least say a little prayer or post a "rest in peace" for the Congresswoman.

Now you have this poor woman who just died today voting in November's election.

I was listening to El Rushbo today on my way home from E. Central Texas when all of this went down.

The break-in news media reported that she had died.

The it reported that, no, she was still alive.

None of it was a topic on Rush's show---until the end.

He observed that she had died, and then he observed that she was suddenly alive.

???

Then he inquired as to whether or not Obama (The Annointed) was anywhere around her.

He'll probably get into trouble for that one...

Rest in Peace, Tubbs.

Pinche

He observed that she had died, and then he observed that she was suddenly alive.

???

I think the confusion came about because she had earlier been on life support and then they decided to take her off life support so that might have been why no one seemed to know what was going on.

JOESOAP

Have not seen you around in a very looooong time unless you've been around
on here under another name.

Good to see you back raising some hell :)

They need to take hyphenated last names off of life support.

I agree, Pinche. Why wouldn't you want to take your husband's name when you get married unless you had been real famous before your marriage and needed it for business purposes. Otherwise, take his last name as your own.

It's me Chris......until I get booted off again.
I came back from a long-term business trip and found the site lame, castrated, censorial and fucking hopelessly reactionary idealogistic.

I gave it a try but freedom of expression had vanished from a once bastion of ideas and mestastisized into PC central and an arm for leftist interest groups and greedy minorities.


No place for an independent thinker...they shall probably look to yank me ASAP.

I wonder if it has changed?
We'll see.

We'll see.

Just don't call anyone left of David Gergen a "cunt".

You'll be OK.

That's not very encouraging.

He's so fucked up this site.

"Moderation" and "registration".

It ain't like the old days.

And enforcement of the "moderation" policy is entirely dependent on the particular emotional state at any given time of of a white, liberal male.

Where's Judas Christ?

It ain't like the old days.

------------------

They were fun....it was a great diversion whence finishing grad school and blogging on a free-wheeling open site, semmingly YEARS before the censorship and Stasi took over with their ideological jack-boots and 'registration'.

Of course I don't pay for the site; and as a good capitalist I suppose they have a right to moderate it as they see fit.

Sad though...like a genetics experiment one had hopes for (barring bias of ascertainment) and it just crashed.

I see you're still here though!

They were fun....

Yes they were.

You could just completely unload on some stupid fucking hippie without any sanctions whatsoever on you language.

True, but a man much smarter than I once said:

From each according to his abilities, to each according to his needs

Rogers had a social responsibility to provide a site where American liberals could be told the things they needed to hear.

He had the ability to provide the forum.

And he did.

But something happened.

If it sucks...leave. Spare us the whining, limpdick.

Your fucking right as rain it did....censorship was introduced.

I haven't been on this site for years, but I smell Move-On and Soros. (nothing wrong with political view as long as intelligent dissent is allowed alongside it)

Who are the assholes calling for a 'Fairness Doctrine'?

Peking taught you much Rogers......eh Grasshopper?

Don't force me to guffaw.

R.I.P.

What is with some of you...she was a mom and beloved family member.Terrible loss for her loved ones!

Maybe not on the same page politically...but a very accomplished woman. Her family should be proud.

R.I.P.

Typical lib response. progressive???????? I think not.

Rep. Tubbs Jones has been assassinated, although nobody will admit it. As the head of the House Ethics committee, she was responsible for getting GOP slime kicked out of office. Given the razor-thin margin in the House, the GOP is willing to do anything to bolster their numbers... and I mean ANYTHING. Cheney / Rove had her eliminated and used the upcoming DNC convention as a cover. By eliminating her now, it looks like that perhaps Clinton or Obama had her killed.

She's yet another victim of the Cheney Death Machine. We can only pray that the rest of us survive until January.

Thats a really good point, KnowsTooMuch.

Please. We're either called wusses for being compassionate, or intolerant for being forceful. Fuck you.

If people have a problem with the moderation policy they can email the sysop and discuss it with him personally. That's being proactive. But just crying and whining about it here, where rogers probably won't see it? Waste of a space, that is.
