That’s unfortunate but at least Warren had 81 years before having to confront it.

Unlike the thousands, and maybe millions, of babies he spent three billion dollars on having killed in the womb.

Lancey,
I can’t believe you said that. People over that DU said the same thing about Cheney that he should not have gotten a new heart because he was too old. When on Earth did you start agreeing with liberals???? I respect you but that statement was uncalled for.

Just what the heck are they doing hecking a routine PSA in an 81 year old anyway.... I’m sure the government came out with recent “recommendations” that screening PSA’s were not to be done. Finding a slow growing Prostate cancer in an 81 year old will likely cause more harm than just ignoring it by not testing for it !! Better check with the death panel and see if we should treat him after all as Gov Lamb said ...”Old people have a duty to die!”

I guess he should leave all his money to the government. After all, who did anything that they should have a claim on his wealth?

Apparently, a new IRS rule has gone into effect that if one owes more than $50,000 in back taxes, they cancel your passport. I thought of Buffett as I read the article here on FR this morning. Such timing!

I had prostate cancer 19 years ago and had it taken care of with medication and radiation therapy. Oncologist tell me that he is sure it wont come back. (I am 83.5 yo)

Also, every pathologist I came in contact with that did autopsy’s told me that every man over 80 has prostate cancer but it not fast growing. Oh yes, I spent 42 years in the medical field.

Warren’s QALY score is still high enough to get treatment, at his age? Oh yeah, being Obama’s useful idiot raises your number.

I am certain he will leave his wealth to the US Treasury. He’s found his religion late in life and it’s third world fascism under the black muslim messiah in the white hut.
