Re: Roger Ailes dead at 77

At his age and apparent condition, it's a fair bet that he was on a Xa anticoagulant like Xarelto for coronary disease. Although some are under investigation, there is no reliable, proven reversal agent for this class of drugs. Basically, that means that a subdural hematoma is going to be fatal warfarin is a PITA to take and requires periodic blood tests, but it can be reversed. If you fall and end up with a subdural hematoma and you're on one of the Xa class anticoagulants, your survival chances are essentially zero...

So after the fall, the doctors suspected it? I heard it had been 7 days since the fall.

Re: Roger Ailes dead at 77

Is there a Godwin's Law equivalent for the Clinton family? This board desperately needs one.

Anyway, sorry I forgot the trigger warning. I'll be stepping out so y'all can continue eulogizing in peace.
Well, Clinton is the standard bearer for assorted bad behavior towards women, yet he gets a pass from most on the left and is still championed by feminists. For the partisans, the D after Slick Willie's name is far more important than what he does with his D.

This, along with identity politics, is why republicans are in power.

Re: Roger Ailes dead at 77

Swap out "company" for "state" or "country" and you might have something.

When you have to work that hard to justify the first comment, that says a lot.

Ailes accused of sexual harassment
Bill Clinton accused of raping several women....
They're both pigs.

Re: Roger Ailes dead at 77

He died at 77.

He was divorced.

He had a brain issue.

He was a political partisan who advised several Presidents.

He had a long history of mistreating women.

Not a lot in that obituary about Mary Jo Kopechne.


=====================

Wait, y'all thought I was talking about Ailes?

Ailes was a born hemophiliac. This was one of the risks. When he was born (1940) the average age of a hemophiliac was eleven. His genetic predisposition and age - and probably the meds he was being treated with - made his risk that much higher. His weight didn't help.
