Clinton Coughing Fit at Benghazi Hearing
Weekly Standard ^ | Oct 22, 2015 | BY DANIEL HALPER

Posted on 10/22/2015 7:07:31 PM PDT by Jet Jaguar

Hillary Clinton stumbled at the Benghazi hearing today on Capitol Hill. As the hearing moved well past its tenth hour, Clinton had a serious coughing fit that prevented her momentarily from being able to speak.

Watch here: (Video at link)

The committee offered to break for Clinton to clear her throat. But instead the Democratic presidential candidate popped a cough drop in and kept on going.

The Democrats on the panel who talked of partisanship made sure to bring up the current budget stalemate to deride the Republicans in Congress for putting our interests around the globe in jeopardy.

She is perfectly fine and has the best health care money can buy.

Please....there were 4 bottles and a glass right in front of her. Did she need Huma to feed it to her?

Her little coughing bit, didn’t stop the notes from flying to her from her lawyer.

A 4th grade ploy.

Here’s a question:

What if Hildebeast ends up leading the way for the nomination…in spite of being indicted or nearly so…and then she drops out for health reasons before the convention?

Hillary would have had to spend $75 million to buy 11 hours of cable news channel time on three networks simultaneously.

All pre-planned and rehearsed.

It was to prove that she would bravely charge through this and stay on her horse until the end.

Darn, I should have read more of the posts first.

Everyone had the same idea (planned act/fake)

I think I’ll switch sides and support the comment that follows the principle of Occam’s Razor. She had been speaking for 11 hours and if she hadn’t gotten a dry throat and needed a cough drop, one would be forced to assume she wasn’t actually human.

Listening to the radio and watching TV, it doesn’t sound like they laid a glove on her.
Game, set, match Clinton.
Gotta give her credit, she was prepared.

She was acting pretty damn strange. I was ‘wondering’ if hitlery was going to stroke out on camera. Huma-baby looked extra concerned, like maybe the gravy train was jumping tracks.

but...but...it's her *time* .... she deserves this.

The only thing this whole falderall did was to cement those anti-hill and the pro-hilLIE people into their positions. I don't believe any people who might be *fence sitters* were even watching. They were all at work.

Caught in some lies. Next she’ll ask for several months to recuperate.
