#38  So will we see a replacement, or a body double?

#37  OK, watched this back and forth thing for a few months now about Hillary's health - pretty well convinced she is catastrophicaly ill - and thus, I wish her nothing but good and hope she recovers or accommodates to her condition as do so many other victims of debilitating illness.

Having said that, what compels this superannuated scifuza to persist? Methinks something like this - episode 6 FTW

#36  The reason she didn't go a hospital is the truth of her condition (probably Parkinsons) could well leak out.

#35  And she was still able to give a speech Friday night calling Americans idiots?

This lie to the American people on this Sunday afternoon by her campaign shows she still thinks we are idiots.

#34  Pneumonia is a common problem for people in the latter stages of Parkinson's I discovered. Everything about this is consistent with the disease and the effects of the medication to treat it.

#33  amazing, that

#32  Diagnosed Friday with Pneumonia, the old candidates friend.

#31  Maybe she is on her way to be more "stable" than Trump.

#30  In the video all security personnel are looking for external threats while the real threat is internal to Hillary.

#29  When she is getting into the van, it looks to me like she is having a seizure.

#28  Biden/Warren

#27  Now even her political foes are worried about her health. Too bad the hive mind Democrats think it's more important to lie about her health. Sometimes you have to know when to fold 'em.

#26  Watch her handlers in that Fox News video on Drudge. Observe how they all act like it's just another day at the office. They've seen it before, most likely more than even the most observant Beest watchers. They're all well practiced at dealing with it.

But no worries. They'll prop her up long enough to get her across the finish line and then Huma will take over day to day operations while Soros phones in the commands.

#25  Kind of looks like that 'fuhrer' (sp?) in that Star Trek episode with the Nazi like people.

One wonders what they have her perked up on. Like watching a slow-motion train wreck - just hope we don't end up as the passengers.

#24  Dems have moved on from dead people voting. Now they have dead people running for office.

#23  I throw a whole basketful of deplorables on you for making fun of fainting Hillary!

#22  They should let Larry King moderate the first debate and see which one keels over first him or her.

#21  Good thing it never gets hot in Washington, DC

#20  How would you like to be on her Secret Service detail and have to cover for her? Talk about a punishment assignment!

#19  Question: How many other people 'fainted' at the ceremony ?

#18  Ill fourth that snark of the day nomination.

#17  Good news - they took her to Bellevue for a brain scan but found nothing.
Posted by: jpal   2016-09-11 15:44  

#16  Pantsuit was blocking airflow to her heat-exchanger. No worries! After a cool-down and a quick reboot, she'll be fine.
Coffee blowing snark O'The Day.

#15  No worries #4, her presidential spokesman will use an oija board to as a communications link.

#14  Drudge has video of her stumbling getting into the van. It looks bad. Like, Weekend at Bernie's bad.

#13  I saw a theory the dark blues glasses she was sporting at the time might be the type used to prevent seizures.

#12  Obscure note re: linked video of her leaving Chelsea's Apt.
That little girl that poses with her is the daughter of the little girl with flowers under sniper fire at Tuzla.

Run serpentine!

#10  Second your nomination JQC.

Question: How many reporters would have been mobbing the area following if this had been Trump?

#8  ...hoping she drops dead two weeks before the election

They can, probably, play the sentimental potential to get her vice elected - if this happens.
Posted by: g(r)omgoru   2016-09-11 14:30  

#7  She is obviously seriously ill. They need to stop pretending.

I guess I'm a bad man for hoping she drops dead two weeks before the election.

#6  Most VIPs would have been taken in for observation immediately as a routine response. They even refusing to do they.

She is already at the point of hospitalization due to poor health. With a man always 10 feet away with a needle in his hand, this is getting bizzare.

#5  Campaign says she was overcome by heat.

Shouldn't 'hot flashes' have stopped a few decades ago?
Posted by: Raj   2016-09-11 13:49  

#4  At this rate, if she's elected, we'll have the first open casket inauguration in American history.

#3  ...until decades after she's laid in state, glaring up at our grandchildren from her Soviet-style temple mausoleum?

#2  Exactly how long will they continue to pretend that she's healthy enough for the job?

#1  The creature who would be CnC, wilts at the 9/11 Memorial. Fitting.
