Well, let’s all hope she gets better. She is lucky that she didn’t get smashed by head-on traffic.

Of course, tomorrow’s headline will probably be somehting about GWB and his administration causing this to happen to the Ms. Tubbs-Jones and Pelosi wanting to launch an investigation.

U.S. Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones, the first African-American woman to represent Ohio in Congress, is in critical condition after suffering an aneurysm last night, officials said this afternoon.

Tubbs Jones, 58, served as a Cuyahoga County judge and prosecutor before succeeding U.S. Rep. Louis Stokes. She has served five terms in Congress and is expected to easily win her sixth in November.

A doctor and family members said she has limited brain function.
