Gov. Christie in the hospital

The only thing accomplished by these comments is giving the hacks something to point to and say "see you guys are evil!!"

In reality all it really does it shows the maturity levels of the people who make the statements, along with their levels of compassion. I dont care who you are or if I like you or not, I wouldnt wish anyone ill or make fun of them if they were. No point.

I hope he's alright, things like this are scary. I hope this urges him to lose weight, because being that size is very unhealthy.

it saddens me to know that you mourned the death of osama bin laden
 
Aw 'cmon -- it ain't like he's in critical condition. He had a little asthma flare up so they had him checked out, "out of an abundance of caution."

Sometimes panic attacks can be mistaken for an asthma attack. I know it's an asthma attack if it feels like my lungs are being squeezed. I try to breathe in, but it doesn't make a difference. A panic attack feels like shortness of breathe, because you're just hyperventilating and not getting enough air... breathing out too fast. It doesn't feel the same. With asthma you can't breathe in, with a panic attack you're breathe really fast but it feels like you're getting no air. Sometimes people describe asthma like a weight on your chest suffocating you. In any case, I'd say this doesn't sound very serious... I have had several asthma attacks in one week. It often takes management and eliminating triggers, and in this heat wave, this is kind of expected for asthma sufferers.
 
No, Haystack, your just another hillbilly Leftist who laughs at another persons possible health problems..

This demonstrates the intellectual depth of the left and is also a great example of what they think is funny.

Anyone see the irony in this statement?
 
An asthma attack is life-threatening... just so y'know. I hope he's feeling better.

A severe attack can be, but most of mine haven't been that severe. As long as you carry an inhaler and take medication, the attacks should be mild unless you have severe, chronic asthma. Doctors recommend you should drink coffee once an attack starts because it helps. I have no idea why, but it has stopped many of my attacks from getting really severe. When I was a child, my condition was really bad and I was hospitalized a lot. Now that I am older, I can recognize the symptoms before the attack is full blown.

The hillbilly stereotype down here is right wing, gun owners who rock out to country music in their pickup trucks while hauling dead animal carcases to the local taxidermist. Texas and Alabama aren't known for being liberal... :lol:

I don't care what your stereotype might be.

Laughing at someone's poor health is what a gap-toothed, straw suckin' hillybilly might do.

What's your explanation for that sort of behavior?
 
I suspect that many of the folks are hyperventilating about the response to Christie's shortness of breath are the same people who fought tooth and nail to avoid extending health insurance to 30,000,000 Americans ... oddly enough.

I'd say Christie is a victim of blood libel. :shrug:
 
i disagree with him on many issues. that being said, i hope that he feels better soon.

I just heard on the radio Christie will be released tonight from Somerset Hospital - all standard tests came out fine. He's suffered from asthma all his life and he had an asthma attack even though he used a rescue inhaler.

Have you ever had an asthma attack? I have and have even ended up in the hospital with them myself. Asthma can kill.
 
I've got asthma, it's a terrible and very serious disease. My prayers are with Christie and I hope he makes a full recovery.

I also find it abhorrent and completely crass and disgusting that people, in their extreme partisan hatred, are abusing this as means to attack Christie.
 
I have asthma myself. It's no fun.

I have been sick and felt like I couldn't breathe for days, it's a horrible feeling... I'd put my face and the freezer, stare at a bag of peas and think, damn, this is horrible but I guess asthma is better than having some other diseases. I think I am glad I inherited it instead diabetes.
 
Got no use for the man myself, but wouldn't wish death by asthma on anybody. I've been dealing with asthma for 40 years. Hasn't been critical since I reached adulthood, but it was SCARY when I was a kid. Talked a stranger on the beach down from panicking once, turning blue when I started. Not funny.

After Obama's speech the other day that is sort of apropos.

First I only speak for my self and my view and second I don't know or would acknowledge overt ad hominem by addressing whatever "reich wing" is referring to. Perhaps you should go to one of their meetings and ask someone.
 
Sounds like bad Karma (cause & effect) Remember he chose to take a limo 100 yrds (at taxpayers expense) rather than walk for good health.
