George H.W. Bush was just admitted to intensive care unit with pneumonia and his wife, Barbara, was also admitted. H.W.'s office says he's in stable condition, but as a precaution doctors performed some sort of procedure to clear his airway. He received anesthesia and was moved into the intensive care unit. H.W.'s resting comfortably where he will remain, at least for the short term. Meanwhile, Barbara Bush was also admitted to the Houston hospital Wednesday morning after experiencing what H.W.'s office says is fatigue and coughing. Story developing ...
Not good news for anybody his age. Nurses call pneumonia the old man’s friend for a reason.

Could be a “duprass” that’s where a couple die
within hours of each other. From Kurt Vonnegut.
Yeah, I think that is why they say if you break a hip you are a goner...because of the pneumonia
I was too late to be in before the anti-bush attacks on the earlier thread.
Maybe this one will be hate free.
(Yeah right)
It is what killed Janet Reno ;-)
kek. I’m going to hold my tongue.
Hope it doesn’t overshadow Trump’s inauguration. Trump’s inauguration is a pivotal moment in American history.
HW has had the dignity to be mostly quiet as an ex-president.
I hope he and Barbara recover and continue to lead their quiet life together.
This. The important events this week better not be upstaged.
Former Pres George H W Bush in the hospital... And Trump soon to restore our Freedom
Reminds me of the powerful ending scene with the Princess and the King of England...

With all due respect for a WWII vet who served his country with distinction while in his prime, he sure had a couple of bozo’s for sons.
Oh, that was awful, but you did make me laugh...
I love re-hearing good news!
News Flash: Sarah Brady is DEAD! Yippee!
I seem to recall both of them being hospitalized before..but maybe I am imagining it.
What you said Mortman.
I don’t hate them, but I do think they are kind of the elitist old guard that just... wasn’t nationalist enough for me. I still don’t want them to die. It would be a weirdly symbolic moment for them to do so, but I don’t wish it on them.
