Sad news. She was one of the most competent congresspersons in the black caucus. She will be missed.

She was a true FF who fought for the rights of every legal citizen in this country to have access to universal health insurance.

Tony Snow... not so much.

I was just watching the news conference at the hospital. The doctors and the family spokesman said she is in critical condition, not dead. CNN took down the graphic about her "death" and quickly corrected that this was a news conference concerning her "health."

Well, Fox is saying she is pretty much dead and is not going to recover, but she is being kept alive for organ harvesting or something like that

She has basically no brain function. She is not dead, but she will not survive.

So, that describes, what...half-a-dozen people here?  (Most notably New Deal Democrat)

EDIT:

My sincere regards, sympathies, and condolences to the Tubbs-Jones family in this moment of distress.  RIP.

If she is in fact dead, RIP. I have a few other things to say, but I'll wait until the seat has been sorted out.

And apparently Tubbs-Jones has, in fact, died.
