Can we just stop talking about Hillary Clinton’s health now? [Wash Post Panic]
Washington Post ^ | 9/6/16 | Chris Cillizza

...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. Much of that speculation ties back to an episode in late 2012 in which Clinton caught a stomach virus, fell, suffered a concussion and was then hospitalized due to a blood clot. 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.

"Diagnoses" have run everywhere from a severe thyroid problem to traumatic brain injury to dysphasia. (That last one comes courtesy of Trump national spokeswoman Katrina Pierson, who, in case you were wondering, is not a doctor.)

“The simple fact is that there is zero evidence that anything is seriously wrong with Clinton.”

There are some here on FR getting on their high horses and saying pretty much the same thing.

A few weeks ago when she had her bobblehead meltdown—to our credit, featured here in Technicolor—that the writer references as the only reason why this concern about her exists, resident Grimas came out to say: “Why, fellow freepers! This is bupkis. There’s nothing to see here, let’s move on to real issues ... “.
Her health is very much an issue.
The apologists remind me of those here who denigrated challenging Barry’s qualifications eight years ago: “Not the hill to die on!” “Let’s concentrate on filling Congress with conservatives.” “Why, I’m offended at such titillation here on Free Republic by (sneer) Birthers!” and so forth and so on.

Some new evidence of her physical infirmity? Coughing, hocking up crap, say, struggling to climb stairs with help, a `Dr. Strangelove’ standing by with a syringe, why—there’s that Tolkienesque mantra again, “Let’s not be hasty little Hobbits ... “.

I understand your consternation there.

Truth is, nobody is as corrupt as Hillary. I honestly think she has come sort of connections. People are dropping dead again.

Hillary's "doctor" is an absolute moron.

She wrote: She takes a blood thinner (coumadin) to dissolve her transverse sinus blood clot in her brain.

No, Mr. Cizzilla, this note does NOT make all the boo-boos go away.

Coumadin doesn't "dissolve" clots!

FFS, this is first year biochem.

Coumadin helps prevent the formation of new clots, the extension of existing clots, and if you're lucky the body will naturally reabsorb the blockage.

And for some conditions, if you don't suspect them to recur, you stop the coumadin.

Since Hillary remains on coumadin, she must have a high risk condition that requires rest of her life anti-coagulation.

So, YEAH it's kind of a big deal.

I don’t want her dropping out. ANY candidate the Dems would put in her place would be stronger than her.


Hang in there, Hillary! Right up to your concession speech.

Can’t we stop talking about Hillary’s health, her corruption, her lies, her bribes, her scandals, her attacks on Bill’s victims, and how unlikable she is?

Let’s talk about the real issues - how mean and “dark” journalists want us to think Trump is.

It’s okay, he can borrow some of Hillary’s adult diapers.

I wonder how puppets like this Chinchilla guy and upChuck Todd sleep at night, knowing their commentary is steadily destroying America.

The editor tells you how to twist the truth and you obey.  These guys have no conscience, no independent thought.  Just hitmen.  Journalists?   Ha!  They'll write whatever "da Man" says.  "Yes, Massa Bezos, whatever you seys, I do. Well, I guess I'll get back to my work on da Compost plantation, Massa Bezos."

And so they laugh all the way to the bank.

Chinchilla, if you're a real pundit, then respond to your critics on Free Republic.  You and your ilk are destroying our democracy and it's time you answered for your lies.  If you had any integrity at all, you would resign immediately from this corrupt newspaper.

Look at your sorry excuse for logic and journalism:

Um, what, Mr. Chinchilla?   A woman running for President doesn't try to be goofy on purpose.  It's not just an "odd reaction" either.  It proves the woman has real health issues!   And the public has a right to know about the health of their Presidents.

George Bernard Shaw described you guys perfectly:

There are some days, seems more coming faster than it did before, when I just shake my head in complete wonder of how stupid people are...media (Clinton Campaign Staff); the RINOs, never trumpers...

REALLY PEOPLE??? You think the American Voters are this stupid to think what your saying and acting like we believe one word, just one word, of what your saying???

Chris Wallace, completely racist remark to Dr. Ben Carson...I could not believe how low people will go...what a perfect person for Trump to take with him to talk to the Black Community, what a fine example for people to look up to....the knowledge this Dr. has, a world known neurosurgeon...and this dip wad who thinks he's important uses something that racist??? SMH!!!

Here's the #HackingHillary, who can't walk 3 steps, say 2 words without hacking, thinking it's HER RIGHT to be POTUS??? With her background, killings (Benghazi); lies, cheating, stealing...are you people that are supporting this cretin actually that stupid??? SMH!!!

And now, the Clinton Campaign Staff (media) saying to lay off her health, if this was Trump they would on this more than flies on poop...remember John McCain??? SMH!!!

This election is being handled by the American Voters, the rest of these people who might think they are important are nothing but dirt under our feet....get with America or get out!!!

Hillary: Destroy America (...and another one bites the dust...)

Trump: Make America Great Again!!!

The MSM showed the world how flogging a story endlessly can give it legs, going all the way back to Watergate. How much air time and print space was dedicated to “read my lips”, or misspelling the word potato, while gaffs like mispronouncing the word ‘corps’ or thinking Austria has its own language are affirmatively suppressed. Without double standards, the MSM would have no standards at all.

I expect her handlers to pull her out of the race quite soon.
