Ronald Watkins, 64, of West Virginia, is suing Manuel Casiano, a doctor in Frederick County, for allegedly botching a 2004 surgery that left Watkins with permanent bowel problems. “The reason for suing Dr. Casiano is very simple: His rectum was stapled shut,” said Julia Lodowski, who with attorney Emily Malarkey is representing Watkins and his wife, Brenda. baltimore exampiner http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/2090368/posts#comment Thu, 25 Sep 2008 18:12:07 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-gop/2038559/posts As Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama were kissing and making up last Friday, Bill Clinton might have had other ideas, according to a report in The (London) Telegraph.
