Tim Johnson - Get Well Soon

When Senator Tim Johnson had his "stroke" on Wednesday (actually, it was something termed a congenital arteriovenous malformation) it brought two things into perspective. First, that the Democrats' majority in the senate is fragile, because with one less seat, Dick Cheney becomes the deciding vote in the Senate, giving the Republicans the majority. And second, it shows us that the press could not care less about the health of unknown politicians. Article after Article was titled some variation of "South Dakota Senator suffers possible stroke, Democrats may lose control of Senate." Nothing, of course, about his health or his well being.

Of course, knowing absolutely nothing about Tim Johnson, other than he's one of the few conservative democrats in the senate, I will direct you to the following blog posts:
