#5 We don't let airline pilots, train engineers, ship captains or bus drivers run their vehicles until they keel over. Why should politicians well past their by use date be allowed to pilot the ship of state to ground?

#7 “A five centimeter hematoma is huge.”

#8 if things go badly, could Lindsey Graham be convinced of the honor of ritual Suttee

This is inappropriate, mean-spirited and absolutely hilarious.

#11 Can someone explain if this is 5cm long, wide, circumference? Sounds like McCain's career may be over in the coming weeks regardless.

#15 Just read on Drudge that he announced a malignant brain tumor - glioblastoma. Un-treatable, wicked fast growing and fatal. While wishes for a speedy recovery are spurious, best wishes and prayers for you family and yourself

#17 I lost a friend in a similar situation just a few months ago. It can happen very quickly, then you're gone. Best to cherish each moment we are given.
