Why did Hillary Clinton lie about her health?
The week ^ | 9-12-16

Posted on 09/12/2016 8:10:05 AM PDT by InvisibleChurch

Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign just made a massive error. We'll know within the next few weeks if the error will prove to be catastrophic.

On Sunday, Clinton abruptly left a Manhattan ceremony marking the 15th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks. A video shows her shakily stumbling while trying to get into a van to leave. The candidate's physician later offered this explanation: Clinton has had an allergy-related cough for some time, and during an examination on Friday, the Democratic nominee was diagnosed with pneumonia, put on antibiotics, and told to take time out to rest. She became overheated and dehydrated during Sunday morning's event, which led her to collapse. She's now home in Chappaqua and on the road to recovery.

Compare this timeline to details from Hillary Clinton's public schedule and behavior over these same two days.

After Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia and put on antibiotics, she did not, as her physician recommended, take time out to rest. Instead, she attended a fundraiser featuring Barbra Streisand. Then on Sunday morning, she attended the 9/11 commemoration, became "overheated," and woozily wobbled rather dramatically. Ninety minutes later she exited her daughter Chelsea's apartment building to tell the press she was "feeling great." The Secret Service permitted a young girl to come over to give the candidate a hug.

It was only a few hours later when her campaign finally announced that she has pneumonia and is recovering.

...So even after she collapsed, the campaign decided the ruse would continue. It arranged for the candidate to make her curbside declaration of wellness, even bringing on the girl to give her a "spontaneous" hug. (Clinton's protection detail would never have permitted a genuinely spontaneous embrace on the street, even by a child.)

Why did she lie about landing in Yugoslavia with Chelsea under sniper fire? Or being named for Edmund Hillary, who inspired her parents by climbing Mt. Everest several years after she was born?

She lies for short-term (and long term) convenience and self-aggrandizement, easily.

Because it’s the only thing she knows how to do/say. One lie after another.

All lies. All the time .... except to al Qaeda
to whom real weapons were given, over and over.

All lies. All the time .... except to the Taliban
who murdered US Patriots after the B&itch of Benghazi
leaked their plane-route.

Why does Herself lie about health matters? Because she can....

Like just about every other aspect of her life. Pathological and congenital lying is part of the DNA of Herself.

Lie when in almost every instance truth would serve so much better. It is a reflexive action, like a bulemic nervosa patient throwing up almost on cue.

Pnemonia.

Yeah, first thing I’d do if I had pnemonia is go to my daughter’s home and risk infecting my 2-year-old and infant grandkids.

Uh huh, sure.

If that’s what it was, she would have gone elsewhere. OTOH, if all you need is to get shot up with some drugs, rest for a bit and get made-up for the cameras, then your daughter’s home is perfect.

Then you can go outside and hug a little girl, cuz you’re feeling much better and that pneumonia is no big deal (not unless you want and excuse not to debate, or at least to sit on a stool).

Why? Because she CAN. Even the FBI enable her to.

Because she lies... She lies reflexively and continuously. She lies even when the truth would serve her better. Her entire life has been lies and she is much too much of an old dog to learn anything new.

Why did she lie about going to a USMC enlistment center to try and join up?

Why did she lie and say she was booed and jeered when she went to take her LSAT (Law School Aptitude Test) by men who objected to a woman wanting to go to law school?

And the list of similar questions would be nearly endless!

But in her defense, how else could such a worthless and immoral leftwing piece of shit have risen so high on such a record of failures but by being a serial liar and cheater hiding behind a corrupt media.

Hillary’s greatest illness is her inability to win the election. Her health comes second.

Yes, that is what the libs would prefer us to believe; that Hillary lies when the truth would serve so much better.

But that is not the case. Hillary lies to conceal the truth.

She lies about Benghazi because the truth is that she is seriously incompetent.

She lies about emails because she is seriously guilty of crimes.

She lies about her health because the truth would end her campaign.

The truth would NEVER server her better than her lies. The media would consider it a grand success if they can get a majority of people to believe that lying unnecessarily is Hillary's problem. It isn't. The problem is that she is corrupt in every facet of her life and recognitionn of that truth would be the end of her.
