He must have Obamacare or else he would have been given aspirin and told to go home and die.

I thought that IS Obamacare.

Didn’t know that the old incompetent, Vietnam betrayer had a heart. Must have been made in Red China.

How can the doctors operate on something Henry doesn’t have?

Honestly, this is one of those "I thought he died already" revelations - like all those people who remember Nelson Mandela dying in prison.

I thought I saw a photo of Kissinger and Putin greeting on here a day or two ago.

I missed it. It's so weird. I remember the photo of his F2F with Sarah Palin, but then remember him dying about a year later, and all the leftist rage and dancing on his grave comments coming out. I must have dreamed it.

My mom was 90 when she began to slip.

She had Medicare, obviously, plus complete coverage of the 20 percent non-covered piece via a Farm Bureau/Blue Cross-Blue Shield.

For a year after she passed, we got statments from various health agencies and hospitals marked 100 % paid by BC-BS.

I’m sure it’s paid for by China, since he’s Chinese property.

For good or ill, Kissinger is a part of US history.

He is a man of great intelligence and ability....not always used to the best ends IMO.

Regardless, best wishes to Henry and prayers for a speedy recovery.

ObamaCare would have refused the treatment on the basis he was to old and is collecting SS, therefore he must die.
