re: #101 Charles

Rep. Hank Johnson is gravely ill with hepatitis C. But don’t let that stop you from mocking him.

He’s not gravely ill. He meant that he was concerned the infrastructure couldn’t handle the additional 8,000 marines. On one hand, we conservatives should address the meat of the remark or let it be, IMHO.

On the other hand, “gravely ill” with HepC = end-stage cirrhosis or some other form of grave liver disease. No one with end-stage cirrhosis is up and walking around Capital Hill. It’s a horrible way to die.
