92. I know Jerry Nadler, and he's nowhere near that fat any more, not even close

Sun Feb 26, 2012, 11:16 AM

Feb 2012

He had some surgery in the last couple of years because he was having trouble walking.
Maybe that was the reason, maybe not, but he is WAY down in size. He has even slimmed
down more in the year between December 2010 and December 2011.

So whatever the reason for this post, it's history. Go rant about him using hair dye or
something, because he's no longer fat.

He IS one hell of a bright and very personable guy. Go bash him for that if you dislike that sort of thing.
