Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D-NJ) Diagnosed With Stomach Cancer
« on: February 19, 2010, 01:44:20 PM »
New Jersey Sen. Frank Lautenberg (D) has cancer and will begin receiving chemotherapy to treat it, his office announced Friday.

"After several days of hospitalization and testing, Senator Lautenberg's doctors have diagnosed that he has a B-Cell Lymphoma of the stomach," his office said in a statement. "This is a curable tumor, and will require treatment over the next few months."

Lautenberg's treatment means he will not be on hand Monday for a key procedural vote on the Senate, on Majority Leader Harry Reid's (D-Nev.) $15 billion jobs bill, Lautenberg's office confirmed.

B-cell lymphoma is more commonly known as non-Hodgkin lymphoma, a type of cancer that starts in the body's lymphatic system, according to the American Cancer Society.

What are the odds that we could slip the surgeon "curing" the Lout a $50, and have him nick the colon wall?

Well I hope he leaves the Senate to fight this or is carried out very soon, but on the  brightside Christie is Gov now :)

"You cannot legislate the poor into freedom by legislating the wealthy out of freedom. What one person receives without working for, another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them, and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for, that my dear friend, is about the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it."

And the Gov. appoints the replacement. Not elected..

Lautenberg is a scum bag. He got his anti gun law passed, ignoring the Ex Post Facto stipulation that puts illegal restrictions on some gun owners.

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.
