The “concussion” is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO “convenient” its transparent.

If we had freedom of the press anymore, they would be investigating her claims. BUT, since we now have Pravda West, no one will.

Its CHILLING what has become of a once vibrant Republic when you view these changes through the spectrum of past history.

First hint of BS: No lawsuit. These are liberals. They’d sue mother nature for gravity.

I suppose that’s as good an excuse as any, short of death. Truth is she doesn’t want to testify under oath.

..... It is my belief that this whole Hillary concussion incident was staged to give Mrs Clinton a viable reason for not testifying at the Benghazi hearings. Now that she has been diagnosed with a concussion .... her memory will become conveniently fuzzy from now on any subject that would cause controversy for herself and/or her boss. Any hope of preventing further erosion of the right to bear arms as well as any chance of getting any answers to the so called "Fast and Furious" as well as the "Benghazi Gate" controversies died on Nov. 6th 2012.

.... Indeed ... The Democrats know exactly how to play the game and are quite proficient in playing the conservatives and Republicans like a master playing the fiddle.

She’s evil. I have no sympathy for her. The injury is bogus.
My wife has MS and falls occasionally suffering hematomas.
She gets back up on her feet, dusts herself off.

Hillary is a phony, like her lachrymose boss.

Hillary Clinton Concussed, Not Expected to Testify at Benghazi Hearings

Fog of war, man, fog of war. You can't see in that stuff. You slip, you fall, you get concussed. . . . "Ben-whatzi?? What's a 'Benghazi'?"

"I have no "memory" of that event or even that night since my accident, Senator. ...sorry I couldn't have been more help."

Poor ole Hillary and just before she was going to set us straight on that fictitious riot turned terrorist attack in Benghazi.

They couldn’t book her in time on a flight to Peru.

There are no coincidences in government. If you create a trendline (as in a stock) you will find that it all leads to a concerted effort by all involved to dodge all accountability on Benghazi. Same with the DOJ, no budgets, no advance info on regulations as required by law, etc., etc., etc.

The democrat party as moved to the far left to merge with the socialists. The GOP has moved to left of center to take the place of the democrat party’s former position.

Where are the house conservatives we elected? All I hear out of DC is socialism. The goal of socialism is communism.

Hillary is scared. Scared that Benghazi will be her legacy.

Her only hope is to punt and wait till some huge scandal/calamity overtakes the headlines. Then she will try to quietly testify behind closed doors.

LOL! After I typed it, I thought...”Hmmmm, that doesn’t look right.”

That’s what I get for drinking de-caf earlier today.

Lately they’ve been telling young athletes to rest in a dim room, no computer, no reading, no TV, no studying, etc. for a few days or until the doc says so. In other words, minimize the load on the brain while it is healing.

They’ve got some pretty cool tests (cognitive, motor, balance skills) they can run to determine what different damage has been done and when it is almost back to normal. The test are administered using an iPad. Each concussion is different depending where and how the hit was taken.

Some great video info below.

She was disagnosed with vertilego ?? ear thing...

It's called "vertigo" and is typically caused by imbalances in the inner ear. Vertigo is the feeling that you or your environment is moving or spinning. It differs from dizziness in that vertigo describes an illusion of movement. When you feel as if you yourself are moving, it's called subjective vertigo, and the perception that your surroundings are moving is called objective vertigo.

Unlike nonspecific lightheadedness or dizziness, vertigo has relatively few causes.
Vertigo can be caused by problems in the brain or the inner ear:

Benign paroxysmal positional vertigo (BPPV) is the most common form of vertigo and is characterized by the sensation of motion initiated by sudden head movements or moving the head in a certain direction. This type of vertigo is rarely serious and can be treated.

Vertigo may also be caused by inflammation within the inner ear (labyrinthitis or vestibular neuritis), which is characterized by the sudden onset of vertigo and may be associated with hearing loss. The most common cause of labyrinthitis is a viral or bacterial inner ear infection.

Meniere's disease is composed of a triad of symptoms including: episodes of vertigo, ringing in the ears (tinnitis), and hearing loss. People with this condition have the abrupt onset of severe vertigo, fluctuating hearing loss, as well as periods in which they are symptom-free.

Acoustic neuroma is a type of tumor of the nerve tissue that can cause vertigo. Symptoms include vertigo with one-sided ringing in the ear and hearing loss.

Vertigo can be caused by decreased blood flow to the base of the brain. Bleeding into the back of the brain (cerebellar hemorrhage) is characterized by vertigo, headache, difficulty walking, and inability to look toward the side of the bleed. The result is that the person's eyes gaze away from the side with the problem. Walking is also extremely impaired.

Vertigo is often the presenting symptom in multiple sclerosis. The onset is usually abrupt, and examination of the eyes may reveal the inability of the eyes to move past the midline toward the nose.

Head trauma and neck injury may also result in vertigo, which usually goes away on its own.

Migraine, a severe form of headache, may also cause vertigo. The vertigo is usually followed by a headache. There is often a prior history of similar episodes but no lasting problems.

Complications from diabetes can cause arteriosclerosis (hardening of the arteries) which can lead to lowered blood flow to the brain, causing vertigo symptoms.
