This has got to be an Onion article, right?

"Let's not use information we got from foreigners who obtained it illegally with the intent of shifting the election" sure does sound funny, huh?

Will have to look back at when GWB was prez and the Bradley Manning worship I saw on the interwebs. I remember all those wikileaks edited videos of bombing and strafing in Iraq and Afghanistan many on the left applauded because they could not get the 'truth' out of our government about the war. Now we are to take an appetite suppressant because a supposed foreign entity has the goods on someone aspiring to become President of the United States.

But I think they have had concussions since then and can't recall anything......wait, didn't someone else say that?

Absolutely hillaryous.......

Because the dems would surely never do this. Pardon me while I die from laughter.

Not saying it is right, but you know the dems would pounce on similar info like a fat kid on a twinkie if it presented itself.

I also remember (I was in Iraq at the time) when Pelosi and other D's visit Syria and Assad. Apparently to broker some deal to 'end the Iraq war.' Wonder how that turned out.

Do you think some reporting outlets incorporate Photo Shop into their articles so as to make politicians of choice look like road kill? People are talking about Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton looking to be in ill health and now there's Ms.Pelosi made to look like she's running a close second without running for highest office.

Partisan reporting.

I can believe this report. I remember when Nancy was Speaker of the House. She said to the Legislative Conference for the National Association of Counties that the Affordable Care Act bill had to be passed so as to find out what was in it.

This latest isn't shocking in light of that memorable statement.

I wonder how big of a "load" she is taking?

Under doctor's advice you can increase the dosage of antihistamines. As a seasonal allergy sufferer I understand feeling like hell.

Yes of course. It is over the counter. However do you truly believe an extended coughing fit is due to allergies?

You would think they would want to stop drawing attention to the DNC leak that should embarrass them. But no, they are doubling down. Likely this is about the promised future wikileaks data dump. They must be afraid of what is in that.

Do you live in the south? I work with two women and they cough pretty much all day long. It's mold, it's cedar, it's I don't know what but I wish they'd take their meds and shut up.

 

[civilwarbuff]

Except I just did a search on WebMd and can't find any allergies that result in the kind of coughing fits that she has; maybe a 1-2 cough to clear a throat but not like she has demontrated. Does anyone here know of one, discounting food/medication alergies which are avoidable, that would cause this condition? Also, no other typical symptoms of allergies: runny nose, watery eyes, maybe itchy skin (depending on the allergen); so what gives?

They probably need to be afraid.....

Meh. There's something to be said about the ethics of using information stolen from a hack by a foreign nation on your own for political benefit and encouraging more. But, I mean, ethics, national security...who cares really? It's funny!

Oh yeah I live in Texas. Cedar fever is horrible. However people with coughs like Clinton's would be in the ER getting a breathing treatment and steroids.

Are you a physician? One of the doctors we work with told them both they should get checked out for a possible sinus infection, because ppl can have sinus infections for long periods without knowing it. But he didn't send them to the ER for breathing treatment and steroids. I'll go with the actual doctor.

It may be acid reflux. I have it. Over the years the acid has sort of carved out a little divet in my esophagus that traps fluid, especially mucous. As a result, colds and allergies give me long, unproductive coughing fits because the mucous just gets trapped.
