Can we just stop talking about Hillary Clinton’s health now? [flashback - just five days ago]
Washington Post ^ | September 6, 2016 | Chris Cillizza

Posted on 09/11/2016 12:06:10 PM PDT by grundle

Led by Drudge, there have been questions circulating in the conservative media — and among Trump surrogates like Rudy Giuliani — that "something" is wrong with Clinton for months... A certain sector of conservatives were convinced that more was going on with her health than ever became public and that this was yet another example of the Clintons hiding things from the public.

This is a totally ridiculous issue — for lots of reasons...

Clinton has released a detailed letter from her personal physician attesting to her overall good health...

So, to believe that something is seriously wrong with Clinton, you have to a) assume her doctor lied and b) that her coughing, which often happens when someone catches a cold or spends a lot of time speaking publicly, is a symptom of her deeper, hidden illness.

That seems, um, unlikely to me? Beyond the Clinton conspiracy theorists...

Dr Lisa Bardack released that letter in July 2015.

Maybe it is time for a check up.

Oh he has changed his mind after seeing the video!!

Washington Post Promptly Declares Hillary’s Health ‘Real Issue’ After Calling it ‘Conspiracy’
http://www.breitbart.com/big-journalism/2016/09/11/washington-post-hillary-clinton-health-real-issue/

However, on Sunday, after a bystander videotaped an apparent fainting episode — where Clinton’s security detail drag her into a van, losing a shoe in the process — Cillizza quickly changed his tune. “Hillary Clinton’s health just became a real issue in the presidential campaign,” his headline concedes.

The display of media sycophants responding to the “stumble” is not far from the truth. I have been flipping back and forth to CNN watching their hopeful nothing to see here narrative deteriorate. It doesn’t mean they’ve given up but you can see the fear in their eyes every time they show the “stumble.”

“How many times do you get something wrong and still get to keep your job?”

No doubt he is told when and what to write about. No way to sweep todays events under the rug. This went to press at the request of some very dark and powerful people IMO.

..... you can see the fear in the media's eyes every time they show the “Hillary stumble”......

Looks like Hillary having a vagina is not gonna be her ticket to becoming
president, since she has other problems....sure hope it's not cervical cancer.

He’s as arrogant as he is partisan.

The top of her feet are horizontal to the pavement when she comes off the curb. If not for the SS muscle she cracks her head open on the door sill of that SUV, maybe kills her in her present condition.

Whatever went on today is probably the same thing that happened in 2012 when she cracked her egg. I’m still leaning towards diabetic shock onset.

For what it’s worth cillizza reversed himself today regarding that article with a MAJOR self-chastisement and mea culpua;

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/the-fix/wp/2016/09/11/hillary-clintons-health-just-became-a-real-issue-in-the-presidential-campaign/

Me thinks the enemedia will tread MUCH more carefully from here on out mindlessly “debunking” stuff they don’t like and which they are too lazy to look into whether any of its actually true.

BTW, contrast WaPo with the NY Slimes today (http://www.nytimes.com/2016/09/12/us/politics/hillary-clinton-campaign.html?_r=0&login=facebook) which continues to try to coverup Hillary’s collapse today by printing Hillary’s campaign press releases without investigation or skepticism as if doing so is the same thing as publishing credible “news”.

I was watching the re-air of 9/11 on MSNBC when they broke in for this story. It was followed up by 20 minutes of the anchor talking about how hot and humid it is and how there is no cause for concern as she is in perfect health.

She didn’t stumble. She was toast standing on the sidewalk. I think she was being leaned up against the post while they were waiting for the van.

One doctor makes a good case for Vascular Dementia.

Only a week ago Trump’s doctor was being questioned for saying he was in great health.

How many times do you get something wrong and still get to keep your job?

Having nothing to watch, I decided to give the Twin Peaks pilot a shot. Agent Cooper: "Weatherman said rain. If you could get paid that kind of money for being wrong sixty percent of the time it'd beat working."

LOL.
