    You have some proof that she has allergies? It would be good to come forward with that proof.
    Otherwise your observation is irrelevant.

    You're so right.

    Where is the compassion and love for this poor woman, who in her eagerness to bust the glass ceiling cherry for all wymmynne in politics heroically does epic battle with her allergies to light, air, sound, and the demon she swallowed when she married Slick?

    Famous mental case (and Obama White House invitee) Dan Savage literally tried to give Gary Bauer a disease by licking doorknobs he thought the candidate would touch: http://www.salon.com/2000/01/25/savage_3/.

    Bear in mind this story was big celebratory news back in the day amongst the Left, and this sick puppy (heh) still got into the White House.

    So it's not out of the question that some deranged loony lefty could try to exact germ warfare on Clinton as payback for her stealing the election from Commie Bernie and being all pro-Goldman Sachs. Heck, it could be Dan Savage again.

    Now, germ warfare/disease warfare against an individual political candidate is probably attempted more regularly than we imagine. Putin's killed a few opponents via radiation poisoning, and may have used it to give a certain vice-president's adult son a bizarre, rare, and terminal case of brain cancer---that same vice president whose family is heavily involved in Eastern European oil and gas ventures. And I can't also help but think of the CIA's famous crazy plots to give Castro exploding cigars and exploding seashells---think they just stopped at that?

    Kings and leaders throughout history had professional servants whose job it was to taste the food before the king ate it---to make sure it wasn't poisoned. We haven't really gotten beyond those times, just updated the ways we get the sickness to the leader.

    That's not to excuse Herr Hillary or her massive mental problems, which she should fully disclose but won't.

  9. If you compare Clinton’s debate performances with her public appearances, it becomes somewhat more plausible that her medical retainers have Hillary pumped up on some pharmaceutical palliative or anodyne during the former.

    >>Not much different from the Kennedy situation, now that I think about it.

    Except, Hillary is 30 years older than JFK was when he ran. Youth can get one through illness, but doubtful whether JFK would have lived to reach 70. Hillary is ill, very ill.

    , @whorefinder
    And, just like Kennedy, Hillary is running as an "historic" candidate.

    Kennedy ran to be the first Catholic president, and specifically an Irish-Catholic one. Yeah, yeah, Al Smith was the real first Catholic candidate, but Kennedy's boys made the mystique of being Irish-Catholic seem revolutionary and cool and historic. Similarly with Hillary trying to do the same for feminism.

    And Hillary, like Kennedy, has the press controlled/in his back pocket. They covered up when his father bought him the Pulitzer, they covered up when Giancarna stole Chicago and other areas for Kennedy, they covered up when Kennedy's brashness okayed up the Bay of Pigs disaster and inspired the Soviets to barricade Berlin and put nukes in Cuba, and they certainly covered up his many affairs, including the ones that not only bordered on rape and sexual abuse, but also others that were probably part of Soviet spy rings.

    Any doubt? Read Ben Bradlee's book about Kennedy, and see how Bradlee practically worshiped Kennedy. This is the man who was the head of WaPo during era that the paper was/is lionized as being standard bearers of the First Amendment and speaking truth to power---and Bradlee was nothing but a Kennedy lackey/ groupie. Absolutely disgusting.

    Remind you of the press and Hillary, anyone? Heck, half the press covering her either worked for her husband (Stephanopolis) or else worked directly for the Clinton Foundation (notably, Anderson Cooper).

    And Kennedy was on a lot of pills for his war injury, and in constant pain, and no one ever reported it, and covered for him....just like Hillary.

    Heck, it might be argued that a lot of Kennedy's skirt chasing was for palliative purposes---the orgasms to relieve his back pain. (note---this one was a joke. lol)

    The parallels between Kennedy and Hillary are many. Unfortunately for Hillary, the parallels are negative ones.

  24. The episodic coughing fits could be something as simple as asthma, though this would usually be controllable fairly easily with medication.
    More interesting is to try to tie this in with the video of her involuntary head / eye movements . She didn’t lose consciousness. Don’t think was seizure. Both involuntary cough and movements could be sequelae of past brain trauma, which we know was signicant enough to cause transient double vision requiring prisms. Also has history of transverse sinus thrombosis (pretty rare)and is almost certainly on anticoagulation for good . The key question is how impaired is she. The public deserves to see her medical records.
    It would be interesting if this happened during debates. The episodes seem to be poorly controlled. I am sure her handlers don’t want these to ever happen, but they still do. Today’s was particularly bad.

    It is a music licensing issue. The same vacuous music plays in the Trump rally videos. Hillary likely came to the stage to music that was not licensed for video, thus the producer inserts industry stock music that does not require a license. Trump usually takes the stage to the Rolling Stones or Elton John, but you never hear that music in the Youtube clips of his rallies because the music is not licensed for video.

    If you compare Clinton's debate performances with her public appearances, it becomes somewhat more plausible that her medical retainers have Hillary pumped up on some pharmaceutical palliative or anodyne during the former. Not much different from the Kennedy situation, now that I think about it.

    >>Not much different from the Kennedy situation, now that I think about it.

    Except, Hillary is 30 years older than JFK was when he ran. Youth can get one through illness, but doubtful whether JFK would have lived to reach 70. Hillary is ill, very ill.

  34. Hillary’s coughing jag is due to three factors:
    1- Trump has her rattled and she knows he will pounce on her ill health again and again. Trump has raised her anxiety level and made her a nervous wreck. The Docs load her with tranquilizers before her lucrative fund raising appearances.
    2-She has gotten away with lying in her easy breezy, dismissive way and it’s finally catching up with her via karma (or whatever you want to call it)
    3- Rotten health starting with her thyroid and her concussion.

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/09/04/revolution-against-rich-parasites-at-utopian-burning-man-festiva/

    In recent years [Burning Man] has become popular with Silicon Valley millionaires, and billionaires. Luxurious so-called “plug-n-play” camps have sprung up which use hired staff like cooks, builders and security, and allow international jetsetters to drop in for quick visits.
    ..
    As anger boiled over one camp called White Ocean, which hosts high profile DJs on a state-of-the-art stage, became the focus of anger.

    The camp first made an appearance at Burning Man three years ago and its founders included the British DJ Paul Oakenfold and the son of a Russian billionaire.
    ..
    While the camp was holding a party at which revelers listened to techno music it was attacked by vandals who flooded it with water and cut power lines.
    ..
    “A band of hooligans raided our camp, stole from us, pulled and sliced all of our electrical lines leaving us with no refrigeration and wasting our food, and glued our trailer doors shut.

    “They vandalised most of our camping infrastructure and dumped 200 gallons of potable water flooding our camp.”

    The episodic coughing fits could be something as simple as asthma, though this would usually be controllable fairly easily with medication.
    More interesting is to try to tie this in with the video of her involuntary head / eye movements . She didn't lose consciousness. Don't think was seizure. Both involuntary cough and movements could be sequelae of past brain trauma, which we know was signicant enough to cause transient double vision requiring prisms. Also has history of transverse sinus thrombosis (pretty rare)and is almost certainly on anticoagulation for good . The key question is how impaired is she. The public deserves to see her medical records.
    It would be interesting if this happened during debates. The episodes seem to be poorly controlled. I am sure her handlers don't want these to ever happen, but they still do. Today's was particularly bad.

    I am quite optimistic that in such a situation Trump would show his gentleman training and be polite. Such an incidence during a debate could bring him millions of votes.

    That day is here, ta da! Clinton is irrelevant and sick, not only unable to retake the initiative, but unable to even respond to Trump’s moves. Witness the feeble Am Legion speech with stringy, dirty hair or recent bouts of coughing fits.

    In addition to all the other stuff leaking out of Clinton camp, scandal, corruption, illness, deceit, drip, drip drip.

    Trump is already making big moves to peel off Black vote. Count on him targeting, effectively, a few more key D constituencies in this realigning election.

    Just make sure you don’t get overconfident and decide not to vote, that part is important. But other than that, not much to see between now and November. Well, plenty to see, probably, but won’t change the outcome.

    Clinton’s campaign is, in the word’s of Nixon, a pitiful, helpless giant. Extending the analogy, Clinton’s campaign is from the past, seeking to fight a set piece battle against a foe using similar tactics/worldview. Unfortunately, her foe introduced a new style of warfare.

    It is a music licensing issue. The same vacuous music plays in the Trump rally videos. Hillary likely came to the stage to music that was not licensed for video, thus the producer inserts industry stock music that does not require a license.

    If you compare Clinton's debate performances with her public appearances, it becomes somewhat more plausible that her medical retainers have Hillary pumped up on some pharmaceutical palliative or anodyne during the former. Not much different from the Kennedy situation, now that I think about it.

    And, just like Kennedy, Hillary is running as an “historic” candidate.

    Kennedy ran to be the first Catholic president, and specifically an Irish-Catholic one. Yeah, yeah, Al Smith was the real first Catholic candidate, but Kennedy’s boys made the mystique of being Irish-Catholic seem revolutionary and cool and historic. Similarly with Hillary trying to do the same for feminism.

    And Hillary, like Kennedy, has the press controlled/in his back pocket. They covered up when his father bought him the Pulitzer, they covered up when Giancarna stole Chicago and other areas for Kennedy, they covered up when Kennedy’s brashness okayed up the Bay of Pigs disaster and inspired the Soviets to barricade Berlin and put nukes in Cuba, and they certainly covered up his many affairs, including the ones that not only bordered on rape and sexual abuse, but also others that were probably part of Soviet spy rings.

    Any doubt? Read Ben Bradlee’s book about Kennedy, and see how Bradlee practically worshiped Kennedy. This is the man who was the head of WaPo during era that the paper was/is lionized as being standard bearers of the First Amendment and speaking truth to power—and Bradlee was nothing but a Kennedy lackey/ groupie. Absolutely disgusting.

    Remind you of the press and Hillary, anyone? Heck, half the press covering her either worked for her husband (Stephanopolis) or else worked directly for the Clinton Foundation (notably, Anderson Cooper).

    And Kennedy was on a lot of pills for his war injury, and in constant pain, and no one ever reported it, and covered for him….just like Hillary.

    Heck, it might be argued that a lot of Kennedy’s skirt chasing was for palliative purposes—the orgasms to relieve his back pain. (note—this one was a joke. lol)

    The parallels between Kennedy and Hillary are many. Unfortunately for Hillary, the parallels are negative ones.

  69. As per my other comments about YouTube campaign related vids – note the massive downvote for the video. This is not atypical. That silent Democrat majority remaining resolutely silent yet again.

    At this moment: 143 upvotes, 799 downvotes. A more than 5:1 disparity.

    And the YT comment thread – another Democrat no-show. Again this is typical on campaign vids.

    I wonder if she is on an ACE inhibitor? They can give you surprise coughing fits that come out of nowhere and keep going for a long time.

    I started taking Lisinopril for hypertension a few years ago. I had the coughing problem for a few days, then it went away, as if my body developed a tolerance to that side effect.

    As anti-hypertension drugs go, Lisinopril gets the job done, and you can buy a three months’ prescription of the generic version for pocket change.

    The thing I've wondered about is whether anybody on the Hillary side has ever offered up a non-stupid explanation of her coughing fits--obviously the Trump allergy is stupid, and it's not the first time she's used it, I'm pretty sure.

    How can she get away with not explaining this?

    Nobody believes me when I say it, but I remember from my youth that we once had this thing called the press, which would demand answers to such obvious questions.

    Behold, the magic (D) … PBS’ show American Experience recently re-ran their documentaries about various recent presidents, and the ferocity with which the press assaulted Reagan with loaded questions was something to behold.

    Yeltsin would show up drunk at political rallies, the oligarchs had no problem in keeping him in power, I don't think any medical condition will keep her from being selected for the people. I have come across stories of politicians that died but still won their election, I think that should Hillary die before the election that she would still win (is there anything in the US constitution that clearly states the president has to be alive to voted in ?).

    And of course Hillary is more at risk there, seeing that her natural constituency includes more potential HIV and Ebola patients.

  112. I think she looks pretty good for 70. A lot of woman that age have all sorts of problems that could result in coughing fits. Also, she does a lot of talking. She must be hellish tough to keep going. Sad really. Out of 300+ million she’s the best you can do?

    Also linked at Drudge, check out this either boozed, high, drugged, ..... stepford-wifesque performance, her first "press conference" in several months.

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2016/09/05/clinton_takes_questions_from_press_how_was_your_labor_day_weekend_are_you_ready.html

    I'll bet it took her half the day to prepare for both her speech and "press conference". Lots of injection, hydration, massage, tutoring, acupuncture, whatever. She is a mess. Something is wrong with Hillary.

    “Something is wrong with Hillary.”

    Bong hits?

    Hillary SHOULD do some massive bong hits. But then she’d be like, OMG what have I done? I’ve contributed to the violent deaths of thousands of innocent people. I’ve treated all the people around me like s*** even though I live a life of luxury. I’ve only taken from society all my life and never contributed anything positive. What have I been all my life? And what are those dark figures hovering over me looking like they want to drag me somewhere against my will? I don’t like this… make it stop…

    Mr. Soda, while I make no judgments about your association with Flamin' Hot Cheetos, I'm afraid I have to disagree with your notion of a positive relationship between bong hits and morality. My observation is that the more bong hits someone had had, the less of a rat turd they give about anyone else.

    Part of the problem with campaigning and meeting so many people is that you have a good chance of being exposed to every germ in the known universe.

    Fingers crossed that it's tuberculosis from one of her vibrant migrants. Heh.

    Coughing that persists for months can also be a sign of an undiagnosed heart problem.

    I read somewhere a neurologist that said the coughing fits she’s having are a side effect of the anti-seizure medication she is likely taking.

    Hillary’s entry music doesn’t sound very optimistic.
     
    It was a downer....lol. I suspect this music was not heard at the rally but was inserted into the broadcast by some low level techie.

    Cholera is an intestinal disease that kills you via rapid dehydration. I don't think it involves much coughing of this variety.

    Interesting otherwise.

    I should have said OT. Just working it into the conversation. That was a pretty interesting read. Way to go UN. With all of Haiti’s problems, no cholera ever until you send troops to help with the aftermath of a hurricane and introduce it through really poor hygiene protocol, kill thousands, then cover up the source.

    Off Topic (and/or, On Topic):

    http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2016/09/04/revolution-against-rich-parasites-at-utopian-burning-man-festiva/

    In recent years [Burning Man] has become popular with Silicon Valley millionaires, and billionaires. Luxurious so-called "plug-n-play" camps have sprung up which use hired staff like cooks, builders and security, and allow international jetsetters to drop in for quick visits.
    ..
    As anger boiled over one camp called White Ocean, which hosts high profile DJs on a state-of-the-art stage, became the focus of anger.

    The camp first made an appearance at Burning Man three years ago and its founders included the British DJ Paul Oakenfold and the son of a Russian billionaire.
    ..
    While the camp was holding a party at which revelers listened to techno music it was attacked by vandals who flooded it with water and cut power lines.
    ..
    "A band of hooligans raided our camp, stole from us, pulled and sliced all of our electrical lines leaving us with no refrigeration and wasting our food, and glued our trailer doors shut.

    "They vandalised most of our camping infrastructure and dumped 200 gallons of potable water flooding our camp."

     

    27 year old, A resident of my town is a well known campus and bar scene singer/composer of dirty lyrics. He also makes the annual pilgrimage to Burning Man. He and his wife are permanent residents of the ’60s. I call BS on 200 gallons of water flooding a camp, that is four 50 gallon drums of water, hardly a deluge.

    One thing that makes me think there must be something pretty serious behind this coughing is to consider just how much effort must have gone into making sure it didn't happen.

    I'd certainly expect that there must be all manner of drugs that could suppress a cough when necessary. I'm sure that Hillary had them pumped into her before she showed her face in public.

    But nonetheless she gets into a coughing fit she can't stop.

    I gather it's not just a heart condition that causes coughing, but also medications for heart conditions. Could this be the problem?

    Candid, I like my self to much to offer her a dose of Dr. Happy’s Twoball throat spray.

    The episodic coughing fits could be something as simple as asthma, though this would usually be controllable fairly easily with medication.
    More interesting is to try to tie this in with the video of her involuntary head / eye movements . She didn't lose consciousness. Don't think was seizure. Both involuntary cough and movements could be sequelae of past brain trauma, which we know was signicant enough to cause transient double vision requiring prisms. Also has history of transverse sinus thrombosis (pretty rare)and is almost certainly on anticoagulation for good . The key question is how impaired is she. The public deserves to see her medical records.
    It would be interesting if this happened during debates. The episodes seem to be poorly controlled. I am sure her handlers don't want these to ever happen, but they still do. Today's was particularly bad.

    The Catholic Church has many ancient remedies for what ails Hillary. All she needs to do is convert and bow to the Prince of Rome.
