This could portend (greater) trouble<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was rushed into surgery at Hadassah University Hospital, Ein Karem late Wednesday night, after intra-cranial bleeding was detected, following what doctors described as a “significant stroke.”<\/p>\n

There was no immediate assessment of the damage he may have suffered. Doctors said earlier that the prime minister was receiving breathing assistance as his condition was assessed.<\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

This is still breaking news, so read the above story and this next one<\/a> with great caution:<\/p>\n

Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon was taken for surgery on Wednesday after suffering a cerebral hemorrhage, the director of Jerusalem’s Hadassah Hospital said.<\/p>\n

“The diagnosis is cerebral hemorrhaging. In light of this, the prime minister has been taken to the surgical ward,” Dr. Shlomo Mor-Yosef told reporters. Sharon was in critical condition and may not recover, a senior political source said.<\/p>\n

“It looks very bad. I don’t know if he will recover,” the source said.<\/dd>\n<\/p>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dd>\n<\/dt>\n<\/dl>\n

If this means Sharon is out as PM or leads to his being out, things will deteriorate over there. In my Of-Course-I-Don’t-Know opinion, of course.<\/p>\n

I remind you again of the breaking nature of this story. And I remind you of how bad the media just got the outcome of the mining disaster last night. I went to bed having read breaking news that only one of the thirteen miners died. And I get up this morning to learn that only one of the thirteen miners survived! I’m curious to see if anyone will take up this drumbeat: “The media lied!”<\/p>\n

You know, like they’ve been doing about President Bush and pre-war intelligence?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
