Former Texas Gov. Richards diagnosed with cancer

Smokers Suck

So why is there a picture of "King" George W. Bush on Former Texas Gov. Richards?
Probably cause he is better known right?

'Ma' has meade many enemies in her life...and I'm one of them. I cannot stomach her politics and her thinking; however, she's a Texan, an American and a human being. She deserves the best treatment and I'm certain she will receive it at M.D. Anderson.
Godpseed and best wishes for a complete recovery!

Texans - you can't live with them, but maybe you can live without them. I FELT worse about Don Knotts.... he probably did more for the USA then Richards...

May I remind everyone of all the people that don't have health care at this time? Who says, "they deserve health care"

I have known three people who have had, and have died from this cancer. I sat with one the day he died. It spreads quickly to the liver. Can you believe it starts mostly with GERD? Gastrointestinal esophageal reflux disease, which is worsen by smoking, drinking, obesity, stress, overeating, spicy eating. Better we all start taking our 'purple pill.' I don't give this poor woman much hope.

You can't rise to a position of power without making some enemies. Ann's politics were not my own, but she fought, cursed, and outsmarted many country boys in Texas. She was a scapper and gave Texans a hot and spicey flavor or politics.

I hope she kicks cancer's butt and my thoughts and prayers go out to her family and supporters.

Unfortunately, the effects of the purple pill, ie. long term reduction of stomach acid production, will give you cancer also.

Shouldn't we make curing cancer a national priority in this coming decade? It will be too late for many, but it will be the best for all concerned in the next period.

or how about aids? or sickle cell? or hodgkins? or lou gehrigs?(sp) or maybe parkinsons? or my personal favorite, ignorance.

Yes, MeToo. How about a "War on Mediocrity and Ignorance"

Must be a smoker! Not the closet type. The kind that blows it towards your table and ruins you dinner.
