Clinton Ally Calls Pneumonia Controversy A “Self Inflicted F****** Nightmare”
Young Conservatives ^ | September 12, 2016 | Andrew Mark Miller

Posted on 09/13/2016 5:15:29 AM PDT by xzins

Hillary Clinton proved once again this weekend that she just can’t tell the truth.

Even about the simplest things.

She almost collapsed on the sidewalk in New York City and her team assured us she was just a little overheated.

Turns out, she was diagnosed with pneumonia two days before.

It also looks like her team didn’t take her to the emergency room in order to keep the medical details under wraps.

Even allies of the Clinton campaign are stunned at the level of secrecy about her health.

Here is the great Matt Vespa with more.

From Townhall:

Once again the Clinton provided another reason for voters to remain skeptical about her honesty and trustworthiness. For the Clinton camp, this aura of secrecy once again bit them in the butt. One ally called this episode a “self-inflicted f**king nightmare” (viaThe Hill):

A lack of transparency about her health has turned what might have been a non-issue into a hugely problematic storyline for Hillary Clinton that could plague the Democratic presidential nominee into November, say allies and confidants.One ally described the string of events that culminated in Clinton leaving a Sept. 11 memorial early as a “self-inflicted f—ing nightmare.”

Clinton’s campaign sought to deal with the fallout on Monday of damaging video that showed Clinton’s knees buckling and Secret Service agents helping her into a van. The campaign later revealed that the Democratic nominee was suffering from pneumonia.

[…]

A second ally said Clinton and her team probably wanted to withhold that she’d been diagnosed with pneumonia on Friday so that conservatives who have been raising questions about her health wouldn’t have ammunition.

Yet in withholding the information and allowing Clinton to go forward with an event that she was not able to handle, they made the situation worse.

Not ideal…

But, that’s what you get.

She could have easily told the media on Friday that she had pneumonia and rested a few days.

Instead, she lied. And got caught.

What else is new?

I think I had it when I was a kid, around 14. I never diagnosed or got antibiotics. I would just lay in bed at night and hack and spit into a bowl to try to breath and to get rest. Felt like I was drowning.

During the day, I never talked as I would cough up a mouth full. I just stopped talking for a few days. Took about a week to clear up.

Mayo is a standard setting hospital.

The two groups that produced the protocol that I posted are:

Infectious Diseases Society of America/American Thoracic Society Consensus Guidelines.[7]

So, you have two medical speciality societies and a top hospital with basically the same protocols to treat a patient over 65 with pneumonia.

Exactly. Like I said, I went from being diagnosed on a Tuesday and taking oral antibiotics to the ER with pneumonia, pleuracy and a partially collapsed lung by Friday morning.

ANSWER: She doesn’t have pneumonia and if she doesn’t and that doctor did say she did (in writing) then she should have her license yanked.

To play Devil's Advocate (an appropriate name for my role here!): If Hillary was "diagnosed" on Friday, that may be based on a physical on Wednesday, with the x-ray read on Thursday. The tyrant-wannabe might have been on precautionary antibiotics since Wednesday, with a confirmation of bacterial pneumonia coming after the course of antibiotics was started. After four full days on antibiotics, Hillary would have posed no medical threat to her beloved granddaughter.

If Hitlery had pnuemonia she would either be in the hospital or at home on forced bed rest for at least 2 weeks or more.

.....my main point was “IF” she “DID NOT” have pneumonia, and the doctor said she “DID”..............., in order to provide her patient some FALSE cover in a presidential election, then she should lose her license.

“pesky cell phone cameras recording”

this video is the electronic equivalent of one c*m-stained blue dress. Thank Heaven there are little shreds of reality and truth that keep the Xlintons from getting away with Everything.

>>>Its NOT about her health.
>>>Its about Hillary’s character and judgment.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

That may be true if there are no more episodes . . . no more disastrous public appearances.

Personally, I think they will keep coming, and become the central theme of the race, making it harder for Trump to claim a mandate.

Moreover, they give her an exit strategy if the polls turn decisively in Trump’s favor. Despite some hopeful trends, we’re not there yet.

Isn’t the medical term for hating water hydrophobia?

Of course, I heard that W.C. Fields also hated water.

90 minutes later then walking about on the sidewalk with NO secret Service around her. Where else outside of her own walls has this happened? That bit gives rise to the suspicion that there is a substitute Hillary Clinton with a residence in that apartment.

The person seen walking about on the sidewalk in front of Chelsea’s apartment/ER does not have pneumonia.
