Bill Clinton Hospitalized

by digby

Apparently with chest pains. Thank goodness he was in New York instead of on a plane somewhere or down in Haiti.

Let's hope it isn't serious.

Update:
Clinton, 63, was transported to Columbia Presbyterian Hospital in Manhattan for a condition related to his heart.

ABC News' chief political correspondent George Stephanopoulos reported that sources said he was taken to the hospital "likely for a stent procedure."


Update: Oh, Good God. I didn't mean to be insensitive to the Haitians or imply that Bill Clinton deserved better than the victims of the earthquake. I just meant he was lucky not to have had a heart attack while he was down there helping, obviously because their hospitals are all rubble. I would feel the same way about anyone who was lucky enough not to have a life threatening event in Haiti at the moment. Jeez.
