| Sen Johnson Undergoes Surgery: Source |
| 2006-12-14 |
| WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Sen. Tim Johnson of South Dakota underwent surgery on Wednesday, a source said, after suffering what a doctor called "symptoms of a stroke." The actions prompted concerns about his fellow Democrats' razor-thin majority in the incoming Senate. While there was no immediate word on the condition of the 59-year-old senator, the source, who is familiar with Johnson's situation, said surgeons sought to remedy an unspecified medical problem. Just hours after Johnson was admitted to George Washington University Hospital, a spokeswoman for him said the senator had not suffered a stroke. She provided no other details. |

| #3 Do you know who this is? Yeah, that's right. Make sure that the Stroke Inducement Ray is properly disposed of. No traces, understood? Or I'll be taking somebody hunting with me. Get the picture? Good. Have a nice Christmas... |

| #1 I hear from Melanie Morgan on KSFO that the loonies are already out on the left calling for full-scale investigations to determine if Sen. Johnson was poisoned or otherwise the victim of an attempted assassination on the part of the GOP and the White House. The loony left knows no bounds. |
