COLUMBUS, Ohio – An Ohio State official says former astronaut and U.S. Sen. John Glenn has been hospitalized for more than a week.

Hank Wilson with Ohio State University's John Glenn College of Public Affairs said Wednesday that the 95-year-old Glenn is at the James Cancer Hospital, but that doesn't necessarily mean he has cancer.

Wilson said he didn't have other information about Glenn's condition, illness or prognosis.

Prayers needed for Mr. John Glenn. Distinguished service in the Marine Corp and as a Mercury 7 astronaut. Despite differences on politics and bad judgment with the Keating group, Freepers should recognize Mr. Glenn as a great American.

Back from a time when we had real heroes, not making “heroes” out of celebrities.

Sorry. His record as a Senator caused me to lose all respect for him. Benedict Arnold was a great American, until he wasn’t.

John Glenn was a great American soldier and astronaut.

OJ Simpson was a great American football player.

Prayers up for John Glenn who made America Great in the 60’s. I remember I had a 45rpm disk with his flight on it, must have worn it out. God speed a John Glenn.

I thank him for his service as a Marine and astronaut, but not as a senator.

I lost every single bit of respect I ever had for him when he started blocking legitimate attempts to bring the Clinton Crime Couple (Chelsea was innocent back *then*) to justice.He's an accessory in those early high crimes so he can die as far as I'm concerned.

He came pretty damn cheap indeed..."help us get away with our crimes and get another trip into space".

Totally agree. What is it with Democrats who serve in the military but then become leftists once elected to office?

Daschle served and he sure as Hell wasn't a Constitutionalist.
