... A report in the New York Post’s Page Six that Karl Rove told a conference last week that Hillary Clinton might be brain-damaged after a 30-day hospital stay during her illness at the end of 2012 caused a volcanic eruption of denunciation aimed at the Republican strategist.
Rove was accused, among other things, of dealing the age card from the bottom of the deck.
Rove denies saying “brain damage,” and the Page Six report didn’t put quote marks around that phrase....
The clot, according to The Washington Post, “can cause permanent brain damage, coma or death if not detected and treated in time.”
News accounts say it was caught early, and Clinton is performing as ably as ever. But politicians have a long history of lying through their teeth about their health — see Woodrow Wilson, John F. Kennedy and Paul Tsongas, for example.

Her brain has been questionable long before the concussion.
Yes, of course, she is pure evil but we must give her some respect.
Why? That sounds like a losing, weak strategy.
I have every bit as much respect for her as she has for the American public. Maybe more.
Did you read what I was responding to?
Exactly!

President Bush did not look like that when 2 consecutive shoes were thrown at him.
Alcohol does have a major effect on the brain. Seems she has been afflicted.
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Whose brain did you put in him?
Igor: Err... Abby something...
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Abby who?
Igor: Abby... Normal. Yes that’s it, Abby Normal!
Dr. Frederick Frankenstein: Are you saying that you put an abnormal brain in a 7 foot tall, 54 inch wide GORILLA?
The question that will soon be asked is whether Hillary Clinton is too old to be President—she will be 69 one month before Election Day 2016. Meanwhile, potential Republican opponents in 2016 will be at minimum eight years younger than her in 2016.
