Ok, I hope he's ok. But between this, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, and Joe Biden, I'm wondering why there are so many people in government with one foot in the grave.

That's a shame, hope he has a thorough and speedy recovery.

Because the Boomers all think they will somehow live forever and are addicted to power?  I'm reasonably sure that in past generations it was quite common for politicians to step down when their health failed them, though of course exceptions existed... these days those willing to enjoy a quiet retirement ARE the exception.
