The Health Tell
Dilbert ^ | 4/29/2016 | Scott Adams

Posted on 04/29/2016 9:40:14 PM PDT by GilGil

I give Clinton a 50% chance of making it to November with sufficiently good health to be considered a viable president. Judging from her performance on the campaign trail, she is managing her health effectively to get the job done. But I would think most people who run for president end up sacrificing their health in some measure. The big question is how much buffer she has left.

Thyroid issues can also affect your speech.

The young male actor on NCIS who lost a lot of weight and had a conspicuous voice change had obvious symptoms of thyroid cancer and cancer treatment, although I don’t think he ever publicly acknowledged that.

she does not have multiple personality disorder, she is possessed by legions of devils.

if there were a herd of pigs nearby, a first year seminary student could kill them all by casting them out... and letting them go for a swim.

Her credibility is not a concern with those who would vote for her or with George Soros who has the contract to count the votes from a number of the states or with the illegals who will vote for her in millions or the legal noncitizens who will vote for her or with the legal new citizens that Obama is sweaaring in by the stadiumful in strategic districts..

In an odd sort of way, it’s interesting having a high-profile couple testing the question of which is more debilitating as one ages, the contraction of STD’s or continued substance abuse.

“But if you want me to guess I’d say odds on Esophageal Varices.”

Had to look that up...but it fits.

“Esophageal varices develop when normal blood flow to the liver is obstructed by scar tissue in the liver or a clot. Seeking a way around the blockages, blood flows into smaller blood vessels that are not designed to carry large volumes of blood. The vessels may leak blood or even rupture, causing life-threatening bleeding.” (Mayo Clinic).

Also, she has really, really deep circles under her eyes, like she hasn’t slept for days. Pretty bad when make-up can’t cover at all.

The dems are letting Hellery run one last time to get rid of her politically. How many big-name dems are campaigning for her? Why has Debbie Washerwoman-Shultz disappeared? They are just waiting for this all to be over, so they can be rid of the Clinton trash.

There is a point beyond just keeping up.

that point is trump getting under her skin, into her head. The continuous onslaught will be destructive. she is after all hillary and is not accustomed to hourly personal assault.

when she gets pissed off enough to throw ash trays in public it will be fun to observe her down fall. Physical health might be a problem, but mental health will be her downfall

I think the question this item raises is who is the backup candidate for the dims if for whatever reason PIAPS bows out. Adams gives her 50 50 on the health front but of course any other number of reasons could derail her. I suppose the obvious answer is Bernie but who knows.

Please don’t give Hellary the excuse to suspend her campaign. Dems are already plotting!

That could be explained if we knew what meds she takes. Some cause coughing, just like some cause puking. Not that I’m sticking up for the Hidlabeast, it’s just a fact about medicines side effects. Any drying agent med like sinus meds will make your mouth dry and make you cough more. We live in the sinus belt and way to many people live on script allergy drugs year round. Both hubby and I do and we both cough more than normal because our mouths are dried out from the meds. But you can’t breathe well with out them. We also drink a lot more water, so more trips to the bathroom at our age, bladders don’t hold up as well, especially male ones which are smaller.

Bill looks worse than she does. I think she has snuck off and gotten some Botox treatments. Wonder what the side effects of that stuff is? Coughing among others. http://www.rxlist.com/botox-side-effects-drug-center.htm

She expected to coast through the primaries into the convention but has expended significant energies battling Bern popularity. All that talking takes a toll. I myself am not immune to the occasional dry coughing fits from allergies. She has them as well as her other conditions, which should be disclosed, including any history of stroke.
The office of President does require a stamina that I flat out don’t see her having. There is a difference between men and women; this is one of them. Whoever walks into that crap pile of office after the last eight years of taking apart out country day after day will have the worst job in history. She is just not up to it.

p.s. - I still think MacAuliffe is on her short list for VP.
