Hillary's health

[Angrboda]

I'm sure it isn't but all I'm saying is it's pretty strange to me why people on here are acting as though it isn't an issue/problem or at the very least something to be concerned about. I'm very aware this isn't going to suddenly make everyone Trump fans, but it also shows these same people calling them conspiracy theorists have a fair bit of egg on their face now.

"Acting as though"? You're supreme interpreter of what other people's actions mean? Just so you can construct a straw man of what people are actually saying.

Is it something to be concerned about? Since I'm not her private physician, I can't say whether it is or isn't something to be concerned about. And neither can you. Honestly, you're running around like chicken little, saying the sky is falling, the sky is falling, when you don't know shit either.

God, the Huffington Post is such a joke

Yeah. So much that if Clinton said the sky was yellow they'd have a dozen editorials telling you it is.

Dead Hilary would be a better president than alive Trump. Having no president would be better than a Trump presidency.

I wasn't only speaking to you.

No doubt, but I felt like answering anyway. I mean, you quoted me, after all.

[Thumpalumpacus]

We haven't cured dead yet, either, is the point. It's perfectly appropriate to worry about voting for someone suffering a disease which may kill them. Not sure why you're bringing up Trump ... you already know I wouldn't vote for him in any case.

Sure. But her people have said she's improved now. I suspect her handlers didn't publicize it for this very overreaction.

Well, the instinct to withhold information isn't one I care for -- it seems better to me to get ahead of the game. Instead, this is more grist for the "she's secretive" mills.

Yes. Yes, it does. So does the flu. That doesn't mean it is a grave illness every time.

I'm not saying it does.

4 million a year die from pneumonia, 36000 per year for the common flu though. It's a bit more serious than the flu so let's not pretend.

But Clinton is being treated and is fine. It's almost like everyone wants her to be gravely ill.

She is not 'fine'. She is collapsing on the street and cannot even continue her normal duties on her campaign due to numerous coughing fits.

You are clutching at straws over an illness.

What am I clutching at straws about? It's everyone else clutching at straws trying to claim she's perfectly fine and calling others conspiracy theorists.

I'm literally just saying it baffles me how everyone else acts like it isn't an issue. Even people in the democratic party itself must be considering options for if she's actually unfit to serve. That would only be a responsible thing to do wouldn't it?

"Acting as though"?  You're supreme interpreter of what other people's actions mean?  Just so you can construct a straw man of what people are actually saying.

What, like the straw man you are using now?

"Honestly, you're running around like chicken little, saying the sky is falling, the sky is falling, when you don't know shit either."

Yet again people are fucking hypocrites.

Is it something to be concerned about?  Since I'm not her private physician, I can't say whether it is or isn't something to be concerned about.  And neither can you.  

Oh, so someone collapses in the street in front of me, but since I'm not that person's private physician, it's not something to be concerned about.

How absolutely moronic that is.

[Napoléon]

I think this is completely ridiculous. If you don't like her, fine, but to spin completely retarded conspiracy theories is just....retarded.

Yeah, y'see this is what fucks me off. You'll sit there using the conspiracy theorist card, yet that was already played before and it turns out Hillary had pneumonia.

This has nothing to do with not liking her, it's entirely to do with her supporters and people like yourself who stick their heads in the sand yet preach like they're open minded, progressive individuals.

You're a bunch of hypocrites as far as I'm concerned. If it was Trump collapsing in the street, having coughing fits in every interview, everyone on this forum would be all over this.

Yes, consider how Hillary fan-girl Joan Walsh reported John McCain's health in 2008 (she wanted his medical records), same with Mitt Romney, and how she is wanting the media to stop reporting on Hilary's health (because we must never dare to question Hilary apparently). I hate these pretend lefties from the establishment media who want us all bow our heads in prostration to Hilary.

They give a bad name to the actual liberals. They need to stop the double standards because it makes them sound like Fox News. The fact that they love to smear the actual left tells me that they love crony capitalism and they are not left-wing.

Yet no complaint about Trump's refusal to release his tax records?

That would be fun to see. I don't think Trump supporters would care that much though. They've already tolerated so much lying.
