(TPM) Hillary Clinton says she doesn't have any lingering effects from her 2012 concussion, which has been used to question her health ahead of a potential 2016 presidential run.
In fact, she told People magazine in an excerpt published by Politico's Mike Allen, another potential 2016 contender -- Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) -- has told her that he's suffered at least three concussions.

Wow...what an apt comparison. Don't recall ever hearing that Ryan was hospitalized for....days...weeks...fo r a concussion. Don't recall Ryan's spouse saying he's had a neurological injury that took him SIX MONTHS to recover from. Don't recall seeing Ryan in a pair of Mr Magoo style "I have brain damage" mega specks. I'm not even going to get into a discussion about the recuperative powers of an in shape 44 year-old male vs a fat, out of shape 66 year-old dowager. (Bill's political career is dead, but she's trying like hell to inherit it).
She really will say anything to get elected, won't she?

Not only that, but that fat 66 year old hag has to be on BLOOD THINNERS. PERHAPS FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE!
"We have to immediately put you on blood thinners," Clinton says the doctor told her during her health scare at the end of 2012. "So I went, was there for three days, and then got it --"
"So blood thinners now," says Sawyer.
"Blood thinners. Yeah," Clinton says nodding.
"For life?"
"Probably," responds Clinton. "But I don't mind because I don't ever want to go through that again."

Hilary sucks, but aspirin is a blood thinner. Tens of millions of people use it daily as a "blood thinner".
-
I know from Posts here you all hate Obama. I don´t want to get into politics in the US because i don´t know enough but attacking Hillary clinton about blood thinners is just stupid. I like her and her husband Bill Clinton.

No where as stupid as LIKING Hitlery and her husband.
You are very close minded if you think it's wrong or stupid to question or to even want to know if someone is in good physical condition before taking the highest political office in the USA.
I am sure you didn't mind when Dumocrats criticized Reagan and McCain about their age and health issues.
-
I agree with Soul Crusher on a lot of his Posts about the 5 Terrorists. However with Obama i Keep a neutral mind. How would Reagan have treated this?

OK, as i pointed out before i am no expert on US Politics. From your English i doubt you are either. I am not for any of them but Keep my own views... no i am not Liberal either. I did like Reagan in some ways as i liked Kennedy. both were Men with a heavy burden of responsibility to carry. As to Mr McCain he has my full respect as an ex POW in Vietnam.

Cant we do better than Bushes or Clintons? enough of these people already!

For people over 45 or 50, especially those with family history of heart disease, it's perfectly reasonable to take a blood thinner - even in healthy people without issues:
http://health.howstuffworks.com/medicine/medication/aspirin-good-for-your-heart1.htm
It's called preventative medicine, and a lot of older people use it.
now, don't get it confused, I think 100% of candidates should submit full brain and body scan before running for POTUS... WAY too much potential for idiots to hide their lung splotches or painkiller addiction or bad back or whatever. I was watching a show yesterday - I'ts very likely that FDR was taking cocaine for a sinus infection the day of Pearl harbor, according to doc accounts of the standard treatment and his logs for that day.

I know all about that and it's bs. So many of my family members have never taken an aspirin on a regular basis as a PREVENTIVE MEASURES and they live well into late 70s and 80s. It is overkill and a ploy to create higher earnings for pharmaceutical companies.
Only real sick people should take blood thinners. Hitlery is sick. Physically and mentally.

Marco Rubio just made Hillary’s Benghazi problem worse

Hillary Clinton has a Benghazi problem, and she knows it.
She knows that a majority of Americans, according to a recent Washington Post/ABC News poll, support the formation of a congressional select committee to investigate the attacks. In spite of Team Hillary’s strategy of casting anyone who is concerned about the deaths of three American servicemen and a U.S. ambassador as a harebrained conspiracy theorist, only 42 percent said they believed the attack has been investigated enough. That same survey showed that only 38 percent of adults approve of how Clinton handled that incident and its aftermath.
Clinton’s Benghazi problem is part of what led her to prominently feature the September 14, 2012, casket ceremony at Andrews Air Force Base on her book’s back cover art. Clinton’s Benghazi problem is also what led her to make a series of flippant and dismissive statements to ABC’s Diane Sawyer about that attack. It’s all part of a critical effort to reclaim the narrative surrounding her response to that deadly attack.
When asked by Sawyer if the Benghazi probe would deter a White House bid, Clinton replied that it has made her even more inclined to run in order to prove a point. “Actually, it is more of a reason to run because I do not believe our great country should be playing minor league ball,” she insisted. “We ought to be in the majors. And I view this as really apart from, even a diversion from the hard work that the Congress should be doing about the problems facing our country and the world.”
When asked if there was anything she could have personally done to ensure that those over whom she had responsibility could have been offered better protection, she said that there was not. “I’m not equipped to sit and look at blueprints, to determine where the blast walls need to be or where the reinforcements need to be,” Clinton said. “That’s why we hire people who have that expertise.”
Asked to respond to those comments on Tuesday on CBS News’ This Morning, Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) exploited the obvious opening that Clinton’s strategy has created. Coldly, soberly, dispassionately, Rubio charged Clinton with an insufficient concern about threats to American national security.
“The State Department had at its disposal a steady stream of reporting about how dangerous – how much danger that facility in Benghazi was in,” Rubio began. “It is a fact they did not take sufficient security measures, and it is a fact that perhaps it shouldn’t have even been there, and it is a fact it should not have been there and it is a fact they did not have an extraction plan in place that was sufficient.”
“If she thinks it’s something we shouldn’t focus on, then perhaps that gives insight as to why it happened in the first place,” Rubio added, delivering the coup de grâce.
He concluded by noting that “no one has been held responsible,” a factor possibly accounting for the fact that a majority of Americans believe the attack should be investigated further.
Clinton’s remarks on Benghazi were not the only comments she made on Monday which caused a stir. In what one must assume was an effort to recast herself in a populist mold, Clinton asserted that her and her ex-president husband were “dead broke” and “suffered” after leaving the White House. This comment prompted political reporters to assert that Clinton had committed the first gaffe of the 2016 cycle.
“Let me just clarify that I fully appreciate how hard life is for so many Americans today,” Clinton said on Tuesday on ABC’s Good Morning America. Asked if she understood why her comments raised so many eyebrows, she said she could but “everything in life has to be put into context.”
You’re not winning when you are explaining, and appealing to context is the modern equivalent of the scoundrel’s last refuge. Clinton’s comments about her finances required immediate damage control. As Rubio ably demonstrated on Tuesday, it will be Clinton’s comments about Benghazi that she will have to put into their proper “context” next.

do you want to play dueling YouTube videos because there is no shortage of complete idiots on your side for us to laugh at

-
Not scared of Hillary! at all...she's a horrible retail politician. When pressed she says immensely stupid things like "what difference does it make?" and let's face it, she's old, fat and fairly unattractive...not to mention she's even more brain damaged than the typical liberal. The hype surrounding her candidacy reminds me of Ted Kennedy in 1980...we all remember how that turned out, right?

ABC News’s Diane Sawyer destroys Hillary Rodham Clinton on Benghazi
By Erik Wemple
June 10 at 11:45 am
ABC US News | ABC Celebrity News
A standard defense for Hillary Rodham Clinton when facing questions about Benghazi, Libya, has been to cite her commissioning of a report from the State Department’s Accountability Review Board (ARB), which took a deep look at the attacks that claimed the lives of four U.S. personnel on Sept. 11, 2012. In testimony before Congress in January 2013, Clinton said: “I hurried to appoint the Accountability Review Board led by Ambassador Pickering and Admiral Mullen so we could more fully understand from objective, independent examination, what went wrong and how to fix it. I have accepted every one of their recommendations.”
In an interview with Clinton that aired last night on ABC News, anchor Diane Sawyer threw the ARB right back in the face of the former secretary of state. The two tangled over the preparedness of the U.S. diplomatic installation in Benghazi for a terrorist attack. In defending her work on this front, Clinton stressed that she had delegated the particulars of security to the experts in the field. “I’m not equipped to sit and look at blueprints to determine where the blast walls need to be, where the reinforcements need to be. That’s why we hire people who have that expertise,” said Clinton, who did the interview as part of the tour for her book “Hard Choices.”
Sensing an opening, Sawyer cited the document that Clinton herself has so often cited: “This is the ARB: the mission was far short of standards; weak perimeter; incomplete fence; video surveillance needed repair. They said it’s a systemic failure.”
Clinton replied, “Well, it was with respect to that compound.”
The anchor continued pressing, asking Clinton whether the people might be seeking from her a “sentence that begins from you ‘I should have…’?” Clinton sort of ducked that one. The accountability-heavy moment came when Sawyer’s slow and steady line of questioning on Benghazi security prompted Clinton to utter this self-contradictory and sure-to-be-repeated statement: “I take responsibility, but I was not making security decisions.”
For the record, possible-presidential-candidates-in-abeyance should never attach conjunctions to their declarations of responsibility-taking.
Another telling moment came when Sawyer placed before Clinton all the warnings that bad things were afoot in Benghazi. “Did you miss it? Did you miss the moment to prevent this from happening?” Sawyer asked. Clinton’s response started with these two words: “No, but …”
The fantastic grilling served up by Sawyer wasn’t exceptional just because of its smartness, its civility or its persistence. It was exceptional for the way in which it upended the emphases of Benghazi “scandal” coverage. Ever since the issue roared to life amid the 2012 presidential campaign, media fixation has attached to how the Obama White House managed the post-attack phase. The allegation here is that Obama’s advisers attempted to frame the events as a random spasm of violence in reaction to an anti-Islam video, as opposed to admitting right away that the United States had been victimized again by terrorism.
Instead of obsessing over that phase of Benghazi, Sawyer went heavy on the security questions: They came first, they dominated the nearly 10-minute Benghazi discussion and they may well fuel a new round of questions for the former secretary. Fox News, which interviews Clinton on June 17, might consider giving her a chance to clarify just what taking responsibility means.

(NPR) -- To hear Hillary Clinton, the former secretary of state and once and maybe future Democratic presidential candidate tell it, her new book, Hard Choices, isn’t the kickoff to a 2016 campaign.
She still hasn’t made up her mind about another run for the presidency, she told Renee Montagne, co-host of NPR’s Morning Edition. It’s more a review of the decisions she made as the nation’s top diplomat. [...]
In any event, a review of her years traveling the globe as secretary of state during President Obama’s first term gives her the chance to define her accomplishments even as her Republican critics ask, “What achievements?”
Here are some interview highlights:
Her accomplishments: To hear Clinton tell it, she helped rebuild the U.S. image in the world after the George W. Bush administration badly mangled it.
“The most important thing I did was to help restore America’s leadership in the world. And I think that was a very important accomplishment. We were flat on our back when I walked in there the first time.
“We were viewed as being untrustworthy, as violating our moral rules and values, as being economically hobbled. And we had to get out there and once again promote American values and pursue our interests and protect national security. Because of the eight years that preceded us — it was the economic collapse, it was two wars, it was the war on terror that led to some very unfortunate, un-American actions being taken. That was my biggest challenge. It was why the president asked me to be secretary of state.”

If mine doesn't then neither does yours, moron.
HEHEHEHEEHEHEHEH!!
It's great when these libtards try to attack me. It shows the truth is hitting a nerve.
I'm a citizen of this country. Are you?
Is it true that you are just an immigrant/guest here?

Hillary Clinton: I ‘Could Not Have Predicted’ That Al Qaida Would Take Over Iraq
The Daily Caller ^ | 12 Jun 2014 | Patrick Howley
Posted on June 12, 2014 at 9:22:47 PM EDT by mandaladon
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton admitted that she “could not have predicted” the effectiveness of the al-Qaida-affiliated terrorist group that seized control this week of two major Iraqi cities.
The Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS), which has pledged allegiance to al-Qaida since 2004, captured the western Iraqi cities of Tikrit and Mosul, expanding its influence across the entire Sunni-dominated western region of Iraq in addition to Syria — where it remains one of the strongest rebel factions fighting dictator Bashar al-Assad. The group, led by enigmatic terrorist Abu Bakr al Baghdadi, evolved out of al-Qaida’s Bush-era presence in Iraq, adopting a version of its current name as early as 2006.
Clinton, the Obama administration’s first Secretary of State and a presumptive 2016 presidential candidate, admitted that she underestimated ISIS in an interview Thursday with NPR’s Terry Gross at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York City.
