Now that she has been hospitalized when will the apology from the "fair and balanced" network and the rest of the CEC arrive? I suspect never.

http://news.yahoo.com/republicans-a...-clinton-faking-her-concussion-105000801.html

Clinton's illness prompted several conservative commentators and prominent members of the GOP to speculate that she was faking her concussion to avoid testifying. John Bolton, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, described Clinton's condition as a "diplomatic illness." Ousted Rep. Allen West (Fla.) said, "I'm not a doctor, but it seems as though — that the secretary of state has come down with a case of Benghazi flu." Charles Krauthammer, the influential conservative columnist, told Sean Hannity of Fox News that Clinton had likely come down with "acute Benghazi allergy," which led Hannity to respond, "Let's see the medical report on that." Other conservative news outlets also demanded a medical report.

They again maybe Chuckles has been faking his inability to walk??

in Denmark. Reporting false news in TV for example prompts a regulatory (politically independent) center the network to correct the statement in the next prime time news.

Its often joked that for example FOX would have to use up all its transmission time on corrections ;)

Blood clots near the brain are a very serious issue. I am glad everyone is more concerned about an apology than they are her well being.

The "Immaculate Concussion" was coined, I kind of like it. Were her medical records released?

Gee, I hope she gets better.

Hmmmm... now what to do with the other 23 hours and 45 seconds of my day? How about, "sure, Matt, deflect, deflect, deflect - how dare anyone criticize your source of 'news.'"

Thats the problem with liberals, they care more about an "apology" than her health. They are using the injury of a woman for political purposes

Sheesh, first a "concussion", now she's got a hospital to go along with her "blood clot" shenanigans? It's a conspiracy by the left to avoid taking responsibility for their failures. If she dies than you know a liberal will do just about anything to avoid owning up to the truth.

and the conservatives didn't accuse her of faking an injury to avoid testifying? Did you care about her health earlier?

I guess common decency is beneath you. She's a human being with a life threatening condition.
As for your other comment, you didn't see me defend Fox news about that issue so stop putting words in my mouth.

Any chance that she just got those bulldog jowls lifted and the clot story is just an attempt to garner sympathy?

Of course, it's entirely possible to point out the atrocious conspiracy theories related to Clinton's illness, and also be concerned for her well being at the same time.

In fact, those criticizing assholes like West and Krauthammer certainly are more likely to be concerned about her health than those defending them.

So, you're being deliberately dishonest -- another prime example of why this place sucks for anyone interested in reasonable discussion.

OP stop being a partisan hack, What do you think would have happened if this was a republican? You think the left wingers wouldn't do the same?

Not to worry......I'm sure she's covered, under Obamacare. :hmm:

I just wonder why they didn't catch the blood clot in her head earlier? It's not as though there's much else up there to see......it should have been easy to spot! :sneaky:

That take a lot of what your girl Michelle Bachman called "chut-spa" juxtaposing the characters in this short story

So you don't think Fox News are the real hacks here? You have serious CEC blindness.

So when is the next conservative conspiracy theory going in to the Fox News scroll bar??

I would be dishonest if you could find me saying Hillary faked it or defended Fox for saying it. You are just trying to lump me into the right wing fringe.

No you lump yourself in with RW fringe several times a day by your posts. Specific examples are not required because the overreaching narrative of your participation here places you squarely in fringe category.

The comedy appears when you flail around and try to appear as something your not. Board games aside, where people stand related to issues on here is not real debatable we have post history as supportive evidence.

But please keep pretending you care about Clinton's health and well being.
It's fun to watch.

No, you're being dishonest by saying "everyone is more concerned about an apology than they are her well being."

There is a thread about right-wingers being assholes and not one specifically expressing concern about her well-being, for the simple reason that controversies are more newsworthy, and people naturally are hoping she's well, so there's nothing to talk about on that score.

As I pointed out, the people who object to assholes minimizing her condition's seriousness care a lot more about her than the people who are doing that. Objecting to the suggestion that she's faking this IS a form of expressing concern over her well-being.

So in addition to being dishonest, you're just flat out wrong.

You are just trying to lump me into the right wing fringe.

Sorry, but you do that with your own comments. You're one of the most consistently biased, mindless hacks around, and you just showed it again in this thread.

I get fresh reports on conspiracies from the right wing media delivered as factual sinister plots fresh every day at work, and I do realize it's merely a convenient and delusionary way for the Repubs to avoid the cold hard truth about the sad state of affairs the Repubs presently find themselves in.

This simple formula of avoiding the truth via making shit up for cathartic therapy would be pretty funny if not for the fact that it gets reported as the the whole truth which is exactly what the Repubs are painfully trying to ignore.

The working class Repubs need to face their sad state of affairs head on and deal with it in a way that benefits the country as a whole and not just for the very rich and the fundie religious zealots that holds sway over them. Then, and only then can they realize that prosperity was meant for all and not reserved for the select few.

For now it seems the worse things get for the Repubs, the tighter they cling to what's actually destroying them. Their leadership is in disarray and their reaction to it is to lean even further right, and their religious fundies are becoming even more holier than thou as they seek out and purge the casual Chrsitians that by self-righteous decree should be camping with the heathen Dems as if the only true Christians that exist are either zealots or those rich enough to buy their way into heaven.

The right wing media conjuring conspiracies is very much like dope pushers selling drugs. They both do the exact same thing.

I get called a RINO for supporting gay marriage.
I am pro abortion.
I believe in evolution
I believe we spend too much on our Military
About the only one I can watch on Fox News is Bill O'reilly
If god is telling you what to do than you need to be in an institution for hearing voices.


But go on, tell me more about how I am a mindless hack.

Yet when someone criticizes fox for making insinuations that Clinton's condition is fake, you attack them for caring about that but not her condition.

Strawman baseless bullshit.

What makes you a hack is not your individual beliefs, it's your desire to spin crap you don't even agree with to protect your side.

If you were intellectually honest you wouldn't get called a hack.
