  • BlackBloke, on 08/12/2008, -6/+31I do hope she's alright. She was such a nice woman when I met her. I remember telling her how worried everyone was when we'd heard that she'd collapsed on the campaign trail. She was touched.

  • Murrabbit, on 08/12/2008, -44/+7I'd laugh my head off if it turned out she ate some tainted food or something.
    • SaraLiberty, on 08/16/2008, -5/+24You enjoy laughing at the misfortune of others? What a total *****. Probably makes you feel better about yourself huh. Do you go to hospital cancer wards to laugh at the patients there too?
    • Hangly, on 08/12/2008, -4/+14Stay classy Murrabbit.
    • sportsstar67, on 08/12/2008, -17/+3She is having stomach problems, probably ate too much lead off her toys when she was young !!
    • daRoach, on 08/12/2008, -1/+18Don't feed the trolls.
    • blast_flame, on 08/12/2008, -4/+2Because a lack of a free market can stop all cases of food posioning...
      Your comment doesn't even make sense, she doesn't live in some far off libertopia she lives in a country without a free market.
    • kemp34, on 08/12/2008, -1/+5The FDA is in charge of "food safety" moron. If she were sick because of that, it would not make your little hardy har har moment legitimate. BTW, you are a sick little prick for making light of an ill woman. Damn you.
  • alapoet, on 08/12/2008, -15/+28I don't believe we can petition the Lord with prayer, but I do hope she gets better.
    • IKORKYI, on 08/12/2008, -8/+2this IS Ron Paul, it wouldn't be complete without online numbscullery
      • kemp34, on 08/12/2008, -3/+4Hey turd, take your little ***** comments to an article not about a sick old lady. You people are disgusting little twits. Unreal.
    • ZZeke, on 08/12/2008, -1/+1YOU CAN NOT PETITION THE LORD WITH PRAYER!
  • FadieZ, on 08/12/2008, -12/+18I think the fact I have a man-crush on him made me forget he was married.

    Srsly though, get well soon Carol.
  • SaraLiberty, on 08/16/2008, -9/+21Oh that sucks! : ( I met her in person last year she was a sweetie. All the best wishes for a full recovery Carol. Good people like you don't deserve this.
  • titlemikedotws, on 08/12/2008, -8/+22Get well soon, best wishes.
  • Catspaw, on 08/12/2008, -8/+25Oh dear, Dr Ron Paul has already been through so much for the good of the people, I hope she gets well quickly for both of their sakes.
  • diskit, on 08/12/2008, -35/+14Prayer: how to do nothing and still think you're helping

    Bury is the red button.
    • Hangly, on 08/12/2008, -13/+13red button pushed. thanks for the pointer.
    • BXRWXR, on 08/12/2008, -9/+2I'll see you in hell, dickskit.
    • IKORKYI, on 08/12/2008, -4/+2hopefully this compels him to stop being a politician and stop his online army from annoying everyone with his leprechaunian shenanigans
      • kemp34, on 08/12/2008, -2/+3You are a sad miserable little worthless troll. I feel pity for the depravity of your current personage.
  • Tugging, on 08/12/2008, -14/+16Will pray for her recovery, God willing.
  • TimeForAnal, on 08/12/2008, -15/+10brb praying for Ron Paul
  • allisonaxe, on 08/12/2008, -8/+19psh, this is digg, we don't pray, we prey.
    • Spuy767, on 08/12/2008, -8/+8I thought for a minute that I was the only one who LOL'd at an article entitled, "Please pray for ______" making it to the front page of Digg. I refuse to ask an imaginary being for her recovery. I will keep her in my thoughts, and hope for the best.
  • Drifton, on 08/12/2008, -23/+7looks like she didnt have enough purestrain gold in her diet oh no D:

    I hope she dies so ron paul will shut the ***** up
    • DavidGX, on 08/12/2008, -14/+4Seconded.
      • afruff23, on 08/12/2008, -1/+2You're on a roll...for buried comments.
    • afruff23, on 08/12/2008, -2/+8Your comment history makes me think you're a troll or pre-pubescent brat. Eithe way, I'm not going to dignify you with a res--Oh WAIT..
    • blast_flame, on 08/12/2008, -1/+5Wishing death upon other, how dignified...
      • diskit, on 08/13/2008, -0/+1You must not pay much attention to what's going on in the world.
  • jzuska, on 08/12/2008, -14/+3I would say god bless.

    But this is digg and you fruitcakes would digg me down for the use of "god". ***** Obamabots.
    • kidathinnes, on 08/12/2008, -2/+3wow you're a dick. and you wonder why people hate you.
    • BXRWXR, on 08/12/2008, -2/+2You know, you really can't win either way with that statement.
    • izikdela, on 08/13/2008, -0/+1God Bless...
  • KaiSe7eN, on 08/12/2008, -17/+7Hopefully she's ok but seriously, why the hell should I care? There's millions of sick people out there, in worse condition, and because she's the wife of a time traveling 1920's superhero I should care?
    • BXRWXR, on 08/12/2008, -2/+7It's called compassion. You have some. You might want to work on developing some more.
      • Grimdotdotdot, on 08/12/2008, -7/+1It's called misplaced compassion. Pray for the people for don't have critical care units, or the money to be allowed in them.
  • evilcaptain, on 08/12/2008, -8/+9There could still be Revolution without Ron Paul.
    • kidcodea, on 08/12/2008, -3/+2GRAVEL!
    • sportsstar67, on 08/12/2008, -6/+2There is no revolution now, just kids playing with their computers
  • BoonTobias, on 08/12/2008, -22/+10OBAMA 08!!
  • Kintaro696, on 08/12/2008, -20/+6I don't care for her. /doesn't pray because praying does nothing.

    Some more serious posts please.
  • QUEZILLA99, on 08/12/2008, -7/+3http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/McCain_s_Too_F_i ...
  • DavidGX, on 08/12/2008, -19/+10No no no no.. no no. ***** this. Buried as hard as I possibly can.
    • jester55, on 08/12/2008, -3/+5um... why?
      • vbullinger, on 08/12/2008, -4/+6Because DavidGX is a giant ass.

        If it were Obama's wife, it'd have 42 trillion Diggs, and DavidGX would be posting some diatribe about socialized medicine or something.
      • DavidGX, on 08/12/2008, -5/+3Because I'm tired of hearing about ron paul, that's why.
      • ZZeke, on 08/12/2008, -1/+1Not even 1/4 as much as we're sick of Obama and McLame, trust me. At least you can get away from RP when you shut the computer off...
      • DavidGX, on 08/13/2008, -0/+1At least Obama and george dubya mccain are relevant to current events.
  • residentps2, on 08/12/2008, -13/+11The free market will determine if she's worth living or not.
    • Naruki, on 08/12/2008, -6/+2Oh, SNAP!
    • blast_flame, on 08/12/2008, -5/+4Not really, she could get the best quality medical treatment availible and still die. Anyway no libertarian wants the free market to determine who lives and dies, only how to most effectivly give care.
    • rficwizard, on 08/12/2008, -1/+1Our health care market is far from free. If government would stop interfering, we could all afford better care.
  • MaxIsBored, on 08/12/2008, -12/+10There's people dieing everywhere, all the time.
    What makes this person so special to deserve a frontpage article?
    • DavidGX, on 08/12/2008, -12/+9Because digg can't ever shut the ***** up about ron paul, whether he's relevant to current events or not.
      • residentps2, on 08/12/2008, -8/+8BUT BUT BUT WHAT DOES DR. PAUL THINK OF THIS? I BASE ALL OF MY DECISIONS IN LIFE BASED ON WHAT HE THINKS
    • afruff23, on 08/12/2008, -3/+6There's something called the "algorithm". When people digg articles a certain amount in a certain amount of time without too many buries, it gets to the frontpage.
  • duckyinc, on 08/12/2008, -17/+3-.- she is stable, which means she won't die. +Since when did praying do any good
    • kidathinnes, on 08/12/2008, -4/+2Prayer only works when you pray to the REAL god.

      The magical three eyed unicorn that travels the reaches of our universe.
  • HillerMylife, on 08/12/2008, -9/+6"Well Bob, in the Digg Northeast Bracket it looks like Ron Paul beats Atheism. Ron Paul will move on to the next round to face the iPhone! Do you think he can take it to the finals?"
  • kidathinnes, on 08/12/2008, -9/+10I shall pray to the magical fairies of dwarfland.

    Seriously though, I hope she gets better.
  • rodbibeau, on 08/12/2008, -11/+8Poster must be a n00b digger. Most of the people here do not believe in prayer, yet alone the fictional being that is supposedly in control of everything that would receive said prayers.

    I hope she gets better. Ron Paul is truly a good man.
    • kidathinnes, on 08/12/2008, -4/+4apparently, everybody who is making a comment about prayer being pointless is being dugg down. There are a lot more brainwashed idiots on here than I first thought.
    • Grimdotdotdot, on 08/12/2008, -2/+2Well, that n00b poster has at least one more FP than you do.
  • Arcueid01, on 08/12/2008, -2/+9Well I am not a believer so I really can't pray effectively. However, Paul has a wonderful message and I really do hope that his wife Carol gets better. Best wishes to both of you.
  • simonowens, on 08/12/2008, -2/+3Digg is a community full of atheists, don't think you'll see too much praying in this little corner of the internet.
    • kidathinnes, on 08/12/2008, -1/+2ahhh, can you feel the tranquility?
  • sportsstar67, on 08/12/2008, -6/+2I feel sorry for her, she is the decent one in the family !!
  • cfuse, on 08/12/2008, -6/+4If there is anyone who is aware that prayer has no efficacy, it's Ron Paul.
  • thebza451, on 08/12/2008, -6/+3this is called karma, it's all of you ron paul psychos fault
  • sportsstar67, on 08/12/2008, -7/+4With Carol in such bad shape I hope they don't let her find out that Dr Nut lost before she recovers..It could inhibit her recovery !!
  • ssdded, on 08/12/2008, -2/+7This thread has reminded me just how many sick ***** are on Digg. How in the hell do you ***** who wished for her death sleep at night?
    • sportsstar67, on 08/12/2008, -4/+2Have you noticed all the Paultards on their various websites forming prayer groups for McCain to die ?? I believe their comments would fall under the category of BLOWBACK !!!
      • ssdded, on 08/13/2008, -2/+2Nope. That's news to me, actually, and frankly it would take a sick ***** on the level of the ***** who wished for Carol Paul's death to form such a group. That still doesn't excuse the people in this thread, though, as two wrongs most certainly don't make a right.
  • gox35, on 08/12/2008, -0/+3no time for her husband but I hope she gets better
  • gdonald, on 08/12/2008, -1/+3'To pray' is to ask that the laws of the universe be annulled in behalf of a single petitioner, confessedly unworthy.
  • rdougherty, on 08/12/2008, -3/+5To pray is to ask that the circumstances of events in our space-time continuum be alligned in a way that will help others or oneself. Not to have the laws of the universe annulled.

    I pray that Ron Paul be awarded this great gift, more years with Carol, for his sacrifice to help us keep our freedoms!

    I ask this in Jesus' name,

    Amen
  • DanielQ, on 08/12/2008, -2/+3Prayers are with the family.
