http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/A/AS_SKOREA_UNIFICATION_CHURCH_FOUNDER?SITE=AP&SECTION=HOME&TEMPLATE=DEFAULT&CTIME=2012-08-31-05-14-15SEOUL, South Korea (AP) -- The Rev. Sun Myung Moon's condition has worsened and the Unification Church will move its founder to a church-owned hospital near his home, officials said Friday.
The church said it is also bringing in a specialist from Japan to try to treat Moon's pneumonia and increase his chances of recovery.
Moon, 92, is a self-proclaimed messiah whose church runs a worldwide multibillion-dollar religious and business empire that includes The Washington Times newspaper, the New Yorker Hotel in Manhattan, Bridgeport University in Connecticut and hospitals in South Korea and Japan.
A respiratory specialist was traveling to South Korea from the church hospital in Japan, and Moon was to be moved Friday to Cheongshim Hospital in the town of Gapyeong, northeast of Seoul, church spokesman Ahn Ho-yeol said. Doctors in Seoul told the church they cannot cure Moon.

The death of Rev. Moon - the man so many Republican 1% Insiders adore as the self-proclaimed Second Coming of Christ -- will no doubt be a cause for immeasurable sorrow among Moon's many intimate Republican cronies.
Here in a photo taken in cheerier times Second Coming Moon yuks it up -- in royal 1% style -- with his own special BFEE confidante & chum, Neil "Silverado Stinky Fingers" Bush (R - 1%):

fraudsters and con men in the history of the world.
If there were in fact a hell, this fuckstick would eventually be stoking coals in its bowels next to Hitler and Pol Pot. And probably more than a few popes, for good measure.
