Can’t we find another name for this disease? The American Legion has had to endure this slur for going on four decades now.

How serious is Legionnaire’s?

Patients with Legionnaires' disease usually have fever, chills, and a cough, which may be dry or may produce sputum, muscle aches, headache, tiredness, loss of appetite, loss of coordination (ataxia), and occasionally diarrhea and vomiting. Confusion and impaired cognition may also occur , as can a so-called 'relative bradycardia', i.e. low or low normal heart rate despite the presence of a fever.

In other words, it's hard to diagnose the disease in a liberal. They have so many.
If they do have it,though, they're going to have to call it a day. The party's over.
