(November 21, 2008-- Doctors have given Attorney General Michael Mukasey a clean bill of health and a Justice Department spokeswoman said Mukasey should be released from the hospital later Friday morning.

Mukasey was hospitalized Thursday night after collapsing and briefly losing consciousness while giving a speech.

Justice Department spokeswoman Gina Talamona, briefing reporters on Mukasey's condition in the wake of his collapse during a speech Thursday night, says he checked out well through a series of medical tests.

“The results are in. Everything looks great,” she said.

She said the 67-year-old Mukasey passed a treadmill stress test, a stress echocardiogram, and an MRI.

She also said that doctors have ruled a condition related to a stroke or a cardiac problem.

She said the doctors said "he's in good shape," and that he expected to leave George Washington University Hospital some time Friday and return to the Justice Department.

That article is a load of bull! In 'good shape' & 'clean bill of health'? How can you say that about someone who has cardiological sympotoms of falling down and losing consciousness from a stand-still? What the article did not point out was that he was struck down for standing up there and praising the devil's work, condoning the invasion of Iraq where tens of thousands Iraqi men, women and children were slaughtered. I wish this individual the best of health but he is just another corrupted mind that polluting the US gov in Washington.
