But according to his staff, he is busily working on Senate stuff from his hospital bed.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.     -Dwight Eisenhower-

"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."     -Ayn Rand-

John Thune reported earlier that he visited McConnell in the hospital and that he was responsive.  His chief of staff reported that he was actively following Senate business from his hospital bed.  I think someone may be lying here.

Do you mean to tell me that my tax dollars have been used to keep him on life support in ICU for three weeks when he has zero chance of recovery?  All while his fellow politicians and staff have been lying this whole time?

Can you imagine the cost of that hospital bill?

He’s been brain dead for two decades.

I’m just waiting on someone to pull the plug on him.
