Hillary Clinton coughed at the end of a speech Friday in Washington, D.C. as she recovers a week after being diagnosed with pneumonia.
As Clinton finished her speech at the 39th annual Black Women’s Agenda Symposium, she thanked the crowd and began to wave. Before the microphone cut off, however, Clinton could be heard coughing twice. She did not hold her hand over her mouth.

Yeah, not enough to make an issue of this one, but she got away from the microphone before it got any worse. Who knows what happened once she got backstage? Her handlers know it's a roll of the dice every time she goes out there now.
No worries. Just “rockin’ pneumonia and the boogie-woogie flu.”
“did you try the chai?”
“Gets added to her long list of great quotes......”you mean like wipe with a cloth?”
That was the lamest recovery, wasn’t it. And did you see the reporters gushing over her when she made that comment.
The funniest thing is the report that had those shocked facial reactions later said she was not at all shocked.
“NO ONE gives a flying #### about the birther ####.”
The democrats hope that Americans will rise up in righteous indignation that Trump once asked questions because Obama hid his records and will demand a cessation of their country by voting in Hillary.
“The debates should be interesting. Will she make it without having a coughing fit or a seizure.”
*******************************************************************************
Who thinks that Las Vegas will be coming up with some betting action where folks can wager how long she’ll last in the first debate before the first coughing fit?
Bttt!
LOL. Pickles.....
And here we thought she was in excellent health because she opened a pickle jar.
An already opened pickle jar. LOL
She did say she's allergic to Donald Trump. He is really getting to her; no end to her coughing right up to election day.
Gallagher: ( to someone in the audience couging hard )
“Do you smoke?”
Audience member: “No.”
Gallagher: “ Well you should, you already have the cough.”
She will be completely drugged up for the debates. Serena Williams style, lose the first set because of drug lethargy, just let the drugs kick in, win the next set and destroy them in the third. No detection whatsoever. Quick in the system, quick out.
Clinton is one cough away from permanent retirement.
I so agree. This is leftist feeble old lady crap.
Everyone at this point is operating on "Obama is a skidmark in American history we will soon move beyond."
Not much sympathy for that horse's ass. Most people just want someone new.
It really smack of desperation, like they dug something out of the closet and threw it at Trump to see if they could hurt him.
Pathetic and laughable. The media only damages itself pursuing stuff like this at this point. Stand back and let them.
The pickle jar was pre-opened. There was no hiss sound when she opened the jar under a vacuum. The DemonRATs should be called the Deception Party.
The difficulty in swallowing and its association with Parkinson’s are notable. The inability to swallow one’s own saliva properly causes a domino effect. You saw it at the Cleveland speech when she tried to drink water and got worse coughing on the water. There is information that Hillary is not a big water drinker and I suspect it is because she chokes on it when she drinks it. Booze and beer may be a different matter.
When someone is continuously aspirating ones own saliva, bacteria gets into the lungs. That bacteria can be deadly. Infections that overwhelm the body’s defenses in the lungs can become pneumonia. If one cannot beat the offending bacteria with antibiotics, it can lead to respiratory failure or death.
The “freezing” episode after the 9-11 memorial is a neurological event. Those with Parkinson’s frequently experience dizziness, fainting spells and muscle freezing. It is a result of not enough dopamine in the brain necessary for the brain’s control systems to work properly—like swallowing. COPD is a physical problem and does not cause neurological problems like “freezing.”
The reason for Hillary’s fast recovery is bacterial pneumonia can be treated with antibiotics unlike a viral pneumonia, which cannot be treated with antibiotics. Bacterial pneumonia can be more serious than viral pneumonia because some bacteria are resistant to antibiotics. Hillary is on thin ice with her condition and because it is the result of Parkinson’s, that by itself should disqualify her from the Presidency.
Countdown begins.
Which officially now (according to MSNBC) she, in fact, started.
She has been pictured with what look like alcoholic beverages quite frequently.
No reports or pictures of her smoking that I know of, so it's pretty safe to say that she's a non-smoker.
Parkinson's disease? Although you can't evaluate this too precisely from afar, she does NOT have any of the obvious telling signs of that, such as a tremor at rest nor the particular type of abnormal gait associated with it. So the gut feeling here is that she is NOT Parkinsonian.
