If there was ever any doubt that trolling DU results in a state of constant inertia......

Our Dad...
To those on The Democratic Underground:
We think that many of the people on this forum know our father, "H2O Man." This is the political site he likes the best. So we want to share some information with you about Dad.
For the past month, we’ve known that he has some serious health issues. But he is a stubborn sort - not possessing the insight to practice the same level of care for himself, that he does for others.
This weekend, it hit a crisis point. While preparing for family friends to come over in the evening to watch a championship boxing match, he began to take on a gray, sweat-soaked appearance. He refused to cooperate with Mom’s and my efforts to get him to the Emergency Room. Finally, my brother Darren picked him up and carried him to his jeep.
To make a long story medium length, it turned out that his abdominal wall had a rather long and wide rip, and his intestines had wrapped about his stomach. From the ER, he was taken via ambulance to a fine hospital that specializes in such things. Mom and Darren said that Dad did his comedy routine right up until they put him under for the surgery. The operation was successful - and his predictions for the fight were right on the money.
When he returns to our home, his doctors have ordered him to do nothing for six weeks. For this reason, we would politely request your kind assistance. Mom would hope that people on The Democratic Underground will help keep "H2O Man" pre-occupied with entertaining himself on The Democratic Underground. Can you help?
In keeping with his unique ability to wax and wane poetically and politically, I must paraphrase Albert Murray, the Tuskagee scholar, and say that Dad and DU are the long heirs and continuators of the most indigenous mythic prefiguration of the most fundamental existential assumptions which underlie the human preposition we recognize as the Declaration of Independence, perhaps especially being highlighted by the Emancipation Proclamation (not to mention the Gettysburg Address, both of which Dad is convinced are fully needed today), all of which is further particularized in the Bill of Rights in that Constitution that our Father, who art in recovery from painful surgery, so often talks about.
We would appreciate your help with this. He really does listen to people on this site, even if he comes across as a stubborn, opinionated grumpy old man. We like that he finds this site an inspiration for the countless letters and phone calls he makes, to politicians and newspaper editors. If anyone here wants us to pass a message on to him, we’d be happy to do so.
"Keep fighting ‘the Good Fight!’"

poor H2O Man. DU is probably what caused him to get his innards in a twist in the first place.

I agree.....they certainly twist hell outta mine.

I have no idea what that meant at the end. The condition sounds painful though.

Thank God this happened to him before the government death panels take over. Otherwise, H2O would be Deep 6.

Wow, the kids are screwed up, too.

The kids need to read DU a little bit. They are about to get the old man tombstoned. They need to learn you are not allowed to get good health care right now ... not get it and be a member of the DUmp anyway.

My Spidey Sense tells me that the taxpayers just spent around $20K on a person that does absolutely nothing to further human progress.

Oh yes, he has.
The watery primitive's been an ardent, if not the most ardent, pursuer of Richard Cheney the past several years.

This strikes me as weird. Is it possibly H2O posting this himself?
I can't imagine posting something like this for my dad but then again DU ers do a lot of things I can't image doing, maybe their kids do to.

Yes, that is very possible.
