I am not sure what the prognosis is, but anything advanced is not usually good. I never liked the guy, but I do feel bad for him. cancer is horrible.

    Hard to feel sorry for a guy that spewed hate for profit his entire life.

    A good reminder that people remember your words and actions and that maybe leading with patience, compassion and empathy come back around at some point (not saying cancer is karmic, but the schadenfreude is).

    This is exactly how I feel about him.

    He makes millions of dollars spewing a rhetoric that is nothing but fear, hate,ignorance, and lies

    Lets not forget his family values crusade, multiple divorces, OxyContin scamming, avoidance of jail time and advocacy for stiff minimum sentencing laws. And feminazis and abortion provider murder rhetoric. Nice guy.

    i am not going to celebrate this. i really hope that he gets good medical care and recovers.

    maybe this will give him a chance to reflect on how he has lived his life and how he has demonized the affordable care act. maybe he will come to realize that all of us have a right to top notch health care. this would be a death sentence for someone who is uninsured.

    i realize this is most likely a dream on my part, but maybe it will make him a better person.

    He was a smoker and a denier of the risks: “There is no conclusive proof that nicotine’s addictive... And the same thing with cigarettes causing emphysema, lung cancer, heart disease.”

    you are probably right. but i think people can be redeemed if put in the proper situation. maybe not him, but sometimes people change.

    I don't feel bad for him.
    I don't care how he goes away - I will just be glad when he's off the airwaves.

    Grew up at my grandparents most of the time and this guys voice was always there when I went anywhere with my grandpa. Don’t agree with him on most things, but ironically his voice takes me back to great times with my grandpa. Cancer blows hard and I wouldn’t wish it on anyone.

    Not a fan of Rush at all, REALLY not a fan of cancer. 

    I’d like to think a bad illness has nothing to do with karma or the surrounding feelings about a particular person. My diagnosis is due to alcohol, not my less-than-stellar moments. 

    Anyway, I appreciate gimme’s take on this. Health issues tend to make one take stock of their lives, and their character.
