Did America dodge a bullet over Hillary Clinton's failing health? (Another Paul Tsongas?)
American Thinker ^ | 05/07/2018 | Monica Showalter

Hillary Clinton was spotted in public in New York, wearing what appeared to be a back brace, sticking out from her clothing despite her being covered up by a heavy coat and scarf in 80-degree weather.

The Daily Mail has an excellent set of papparazzi photos here.

So much for her phyician's "excellent" bill of health, something that should raise question's about the value of such reports, or else her medic's credibility. And it says a lot about Hillary Clinton herself that she continually lies about her increasingly obvious chronic health problems.

We've known for years that she's had health problems. She had a fall and a concussion in 2012, with blurry double vision, requiring her to wear glasses, which seemed to be a factor in her resignation as Secretary of State.

Out on the campaign trail, there were suspiciously long bathroom breaks, which made her late for her television appearances at at least one presidential candidate's debate, quite a noticible attention-getter. Always, always, there were excuses - that the bathroom was too far away, that the whole bathroom needed to be cleared out for Hillary, so that Hillary could "go," that women always take longer than men to do their business in the bathroom. If any of that were true, it would have been worked out before the debate. It wasn't, and Hillary tried to laugh it off.

She broke her arm or elbow a few times, and more than once she appeared in a sling.

There were also her cough attacks, constant long unbroken coughing streaks, often while on stage during debates and at public speeches, something she insisted was nothing, or sometimes, the result of allergies.

That’s the handle that makes it easier to carry/chuck her in the van.

That was my question as well. Why does Hillary — or anyone else, for that matter — require a back brace? Is it the result of injury, to slow some degenerative process, or . . . ?

She needs to stick around to fragment and demoralize Democrats. Sometimes suffering is good.

Got to admit she is a fighter and doesn’t give up or can’t face reality

I’ve read about the causes of Kuru and would not be surprised at all.

I said this on August 19, 2016 during the campaign.


On the other hand is the 1992 case of Paul Tsongas. In the 1992 Democrat primary, former Massachusetts Senator Paul Tsongas was the early front-runner; Bill Clinton was struggling with infidelity questions. Tsongas had retired from the Senate in 1984 because he was diagnosed with non-Hodgkins lymphoma (John Kerry took his seat). Tsongas underwent a bone marrow transplant to treat the disease in 1986 and received a clean bill of health from doctors in 1991.

The whisper campaign began against Tsongas that his health was still in doubt, and Tsongas' popularity began to wane as Clinton's begun to surge. Tsongas eventually dropped out of the race.

As it turned out, Tsongas died in 1997 from a return of the cancer, which would have been in the seventh year of his Presidency. People were right to question his health.

Stories like this one are of the whisper campaign kind. They point to real health questions that the candidate wants to hide, but are real concerns.

“What was she blaming New Zealand for her loss now?”

No. she’s circled back around to blaming misogyny again; apparently not ALL women voted for her.

And this points up the importance of who their running mates are.

“Or, perhaps a Divine Hand gently nudged the bullet to the side.”

both myself and Mrs. Catnipman have discussed that theory numerous times ... similar to how George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Alexander Hamilton came together at the same time and place in the universe to found the United States of America ...

Despite consistent denials of her poor health, that'll be her attorney's line to the judge come sentencing. Thanks SeekAndFind.

Kuru originated among the Fore tribe of Papua New Guinea via funerary cannibalism. Deceased family members were traditionally cooked and eaten, which was thought to help free the spirit of the dead. Women and children usually consumed the brain, the organ in which infectious prions were most concentrated, thus allowing for transmission of kuru.

The epidemic likely started when a villager developed sporadic Creutzfeldt–Jakob disease (CJD) and died. When the women ate the brain, they caught the disease, and then the people that ate them caught it, and on it went.

CJD is a universally fatal brain disorder. Early symptoms include memory problems, behavioral changes, poor coordination, and visual disturbances. Later dementia, involuntary movements, blindness, weakness, and coma occur.

Thank you for the good refresher.

She’s sick in body and soul.
