Seriously - I bet there is a connection. Dont know why she didn't just adopt. Whats the hangup people have about adoption.

Some people have it. My wife worries that if we adopt that somehow the original parents would come back later to take the child away. I know this isn't likely. We have one child (I am 44) and I would like to adopt but I know my wife would never agree because of her fear. My brother adopted 5 and my niece is in the process of adopting 2. I will never belittle my wife because of her fear as it is legitimate in her mind....but I had planned to adopt which is why I waited until later in life to marry.

What's more sympathetic then attacking the man who made her life so miserable during the time when she needed a faithful husband the most, even to the point of using her death as another opportunity to get in front of the cameras?

Well let's put it like this. That's between them and it's really none of your business. Particularly at a time like this.

She had 2 babies 1 at age of 48 and 1 at 50 after massive amounts of fertility drugs. I wonder if there is a connection to being diagnosed with breast cancer shortly after.

Apparently John felt that having young children would make him look more like JFK then John Fucking Kerry.

No lets put it like I put it: sticking up for the victim instead of John the scumbag. That poor woman didn't have the strength to kick his ass out of her house as she was tormented with his presence on her last day.

Well, I didn't think of that when I was rating but now going back and re-reading...

Even in death I guess there will always be arguing if a person is somehow politically related. Yes her husband was scum for doing what he did to her especially in such a public manner. But this is not about her husband it's about her. Not sure why we can't just wish to let her R.I.P and pray for her children. The more important issue is most if not all of us know someone who has cancer or had died from it and we know it's not partisan. That's what's sad here.

It's not about bitching about her husband because we like or don't like his politics.

So because something happened after another thing it caused it?

This is essentially your argument.

In the huge controlled trials they probably did before they released these drugs to the public, was cancer reported any more often in the control group than the group taking the drug?

It's her personal business, not yours. You don't honestly care about her. You're glad she's dead because she was just one more liberal Democratic voter. You're secretly glad, but you can't admit that because you see an opportunity to wave her corpse in the air so that you can score some political points.

John is a great American, just like WM. I'll throw in Newt for good measure.

LOL yah because we all know the FDA is completely honest and looking out for our safety over any sort of corporate profit schemes.

They ask you now on your mammogram fact sheet of you have used any birth control, or fertility drugs, the woman who have used them are just now entering menopause, a time when most women are at a high risk for cancer. Fertility drugs have not been around that long and although they have had trial one them, some cause and effects are not evident during those trials!
Just like hormone replacement, my sister is very sure that they were the cause of her breast cancer!
