Rehnquist Ill

Chief Justice William Rehnquist is hospitalized and being treated for cancer:


WASHINGTON (AP) - Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, the leading conservative figure on the Supreme Court for a generation, has thyroid cancer but will continue working while receiving treatment.
Rehnquist, 80, underwent a tracheotomy at Bethesda Naval Hospital in suburban Maryland on Saturday. While no details about his condition were released, a statement issued by the court said he is expected to be back at work next week when justices resume hearing cases.
Even so, Rehnquist's hospitalization little more than a week before the election gave new prominence to a campaign issue that has been overshadowed by the war on terrorism. The next president is likely to at least one - and likely more - to a court that has been deeply divided in recent years on issues as varied as abortion and the 2000 election itself.

What looney-left site will be the first to post dubious comments about this? The nice ladies at NOW have nothing on their site about this, although they have a nice "Love Your Body" link.

We have a winner:

Rehnquist is a CNP shill, this is a cover for Bush on the weapons

Why didn't I go to the DUmmies first?
