Hillary Clinton’s campaign left reporters in the dark for a full 90 minutes about her health and whereabouts on Sunday after she unexpectedly left a 9/11 memorial event in New York. It took most of the day to disclose that Clinton was diagnosed with pneumonia nearly three days earlier and wasn’t simply “overheated,” as the campaign’s initial statement on Sunday said.

.... Yes because the double is actually shorter than Hillary, they staged a small child beside her to made the double look taller.

-- So the lie about being overheated was replaced by the lie about having pneumonia. --

No. The press accepts both stories as factual. "Now we know ..." is what they say, just before repeating Camp Crooked's claims. The complaints are the 90 minutes bunker mode, and the two day withholding of the pneumonia note.

The overheating story line is used to explain "stumbling" into the van (she was dragged, could not move on her own), and the pneumonia story line explains the "recent" coughing.

But, according to the press, the real story in all this is that Trump hasn't released his medical records, and he's old, you know. And too, it's Trump's fault that Hillary isn't feeling well. He taunted her into working too hard with his misogynic "low stamina, low energy" remarks.

The news media is already covering up for her.

Tonight CBS news says that “it would only take a coupla days for her to be normal again...”

So? It isn’t like you fake journalists CARE anyway! This public display (one of many, but perhaps the most blatant) of her illness seems to have finally—reluctantly—SHAMED a few of you out your self-induced comas.

Doesn’t matter to most of you “news media” apparatchiks, though.

You haven’t asked tough questions of Hussein, and you are barely speaking about Hitlery.

Meanwhile, the Republican nominee can calmly say something innocuous regarding a Muslim family and suddenly he is raked over the coals.

The Republican nominee can suggest that ENFORCING THE BORDER LAWS is part of his plan, and you call him a hatemonger and racist.

The Republican nominee can speak about illegals committing crimes and bring on stage families who have suffered...and YOU NEVER SEEM TO WANT TO INTERVIEW THEM.

The Republican nominee can attract men and women of different races, socioeconomic status, veterans (a 19 point lead in a recent poll), and you never put them on your shows, mention them in your stories, or interview them.

I s’pose you are all gearing up for October when your original little tin god will hit the campaign trail for the sick old lady. Got your pens ready to transcribe every word he says like it is gold?

Great questions. She clearly isn’t using Obamacare because all of those medical tests etc., would take weeks.

What is disgusting is her coughing and spitting in her hands; no tissues and if she does have bacterial pneumonia - which is contagious - she should be isolated from other people until she is disease free.

Did she see her grandchildren at Chelsea’s apartment and did she sneeze, cough and spit all over them??

Pneumonia is no joke at her age.

I was just reading Winston Churchill's history of WW2. He had pneumonia a couple of times during the war but still got around quite a bit. his doctor said it was called "The old man's friend" because it took them away so quietly.

It’s possible Eleanor told her this during one of their conversations, that if FDR could be President from a wheelchair, so could she.

Her dishonesty has roped the MSM into defending her lies. Its now become difficult to sustain that further with credulity.

Agree...and yet, I find the media's credulity was impaired a long long time ago. American public (and media) have been mesmerized by...by something. A deception of some sort that keeps those with eyes from plainly seeing and those with ears from understanding what they've been clearly hearing.

The tainted food supply?

I don't really believe it's pneumonia, that being said my mother seemed fine one day, had her pace maker battery replaced the next day (in the hospital after chest x-rays that showed no pneumonia); a day in a half later said she didn't feel well, we took her to the hospital who said she had pneumonia, and within four days she had died. She never stumbled around like Hillary, passed out or looked like she was having a seizure. No noticeable cough like Hillary's. The final few hours she was unconscious. Hillary actually looked much worse than my mom! My mom was just about the same age as Hillary.

Yeah, you see Hillary never told the pool reporters she was sick and besides she keeps them penned up so how could they ever witness her sickness first hand?!

And all because Donald Trump wouldn’t stop propogating Hillarys healthy RUMORS!

What a load of manure!

‘And know some folks her get wound up about it, but I am not convinced that thing walking out of Chelseas apartment was not a double, to many things don’t match.’

Were any of the same SS there? I wondered if the other 2 women close by were some kind of nurses or EMT types.

“Why would that little girl be by herself in front of Chelsea’s apartment? “

The little stage prop came from what looked like a little out door Bistro next to Horse Faces Apt building. There are other photos out there where you can see people sitting at tables giving the Brave Clinton a heros welcome.

Oh look, the little girl happens to be Hispanic. That’s convenient. Black would have been a bit much.

Wouldn’t she have have to be convicted before she could be pardoned? You can’t be pardoned for something you haven’t been found guilty of, can you?

Then again, this is Obama we’re talking about. He can apparently do whatever the hell he pleases.

The press is asking those same questions. At least the folks at FNC are.
