WASHINGTON (AP) - A powerful House committee chairman with a central role in President Barack Obama's global warming and health care legislation has been hospitalized.

Rep. Henry Waxman, D-Calif., was not feeling well Tuesday and was admitted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles for "routine testing," spokeswoman Karen Lightfoot said Wednesday.

Henry, lead the way and receive your health care as you would expect us lowly commoners to receive. Which means, you’d probably receive nothing but an ibuprofen tablet. Actual treatment for the elderly under LeninCare will not apply to you. You are old and clearly not seen as vital to the economy.

He probably choked on his own forked tongue.

I know they do. That’s why I mentioned DU in 1 of my replies.

It doesn’t make it right for us. Because there’s always time for repentence.

But I certainly understand the sentiments - particularly because I am in a very foul mood when it comes to Dems - and I don’t mean the elite politicos, either. I mean all the morons in my region who have “Obama” on their cars.

Too bad they won't be receiving soviet-style socialized medicine.

You’ll probably get flamed.

But all you did was say what thousands of people avoided thinking a year ago but who are now ready to shout it.

Either that or he got stuck upside down in a rainstorm and drowned.

Obviously, he’s emitting too much CO2.

I think it's methane. Which could explain the constant nostrilitus.

but at least would be fun to have a beer with.

Unless he is with Chris Dodd and you are the lucky waitress to get humped in both directions.

No Class is as No Class does. Our rulers. I want to puke when I hear or read their names.

Yes, he went ambergris poaching and got his elbow lodged up his enormous snout.

All I can say is may he assume room temp, quickly and painlessly.

You know, I would actually give a crap what happens to Waxman if he admitted himself to MLK-Harbor, instead of the best of the best, Cedar Sinai. Waxman thinks the world of purely public health care, why didn’t he just head down there?

After Franken’s MN. Supreme Court win, we need a Democrat Senatorial Death Pool.

“You’ll probably get flamed.”

Surprisingly, didn’t get flamed. As you mention, a lot of people are beginning to realize that this isn’t just some casual disagreement we have with our opposition, that we are in a genuine war.

I have noticed a shifting of opinion on here, towards more seriousness. And I have also noticed all altogether overdue toughening beginning on our side. We’ll need to be tough-minded for what is to come.

There’s a 4th DIM who hasn’t been on duty because of illness, but I can’t remember who.

They will have to start convening Congress from the hospital
to get anything done. Not that the get much done FOR the
people now!

Byrd, Kennedy, Waxman — it’s starting to look like the old Soviet Union, with all the leaders having medical problems.

It's about time that God starts to judge & punish these immoral reprobates, haters of America!!! That should include the entire demoRAT socialist party & partisan media hacks as well!!!

Nostrildamus Waxman is another tragic victim sickened by 4th hand smoke.

Get well soon.
