Ninety year old former President George H.W. Bush was hospitalized due to shortness of breath tonight. The reaction to the news was largely supportive and sympathetic, but nothing brings out the really vile haters like a Republican with a health issue. Some of them didn’t even stop to determine which Bush they were talking about.

Some thought it would be clever to mock the ailing president for the sake of their cause.

@ABC He's had shortness of conscious for a long time. Since before he rigged the hostage crisis in Iran and the failed rescue.

We suspect “conscience” was the word that troll was going for but a poor vocabulary is probably the least of their problems
@NBCNews @CynthiaStillBB they need to put the sob in a cage.
