(CNN) Apparently, it takes a village to explain a cough. Hillary Clinton’s coughing spells along the campaign trail have drawn attention from supporters and opponents alike. Though Democrats insist Clinton merely has seasonal allergies, Republicans argue her cough suggests a more problematic health issue. Meanwhile, everyone is left to sigh and wonder: When is a cough “just” a cough — and when do you need a doctor?
Seems like this is becoming an issue now. Even CNN is talking about it.
I have heard several people make the comment that Hildabeast needs to have her thyroid checked or that she already knows she has a condition and it is not responding well.
“All Never Trump conservatives maintain that their decision to never vote for Donald Trump is guided by their principles. I have no doubt that this is true.
But some of them — though by no means all — seem to imply, or at least may think, that conservatives who vote for Trump have abandoned their principles. Indeed, the charge of compromising on principle is explicitly leveled at Republican politicians and members of the Republican “establishment” who support Trump.”
“I cannot speak for all conservatives who are voting for Trump, but I can speak for many in making this assertion: We have the same principles as the Never Trumpers — especially those of us who strongly opposed nominating Trump; that’s why we opposed him, after all.
So almost everything that prevents Never Trumpers from voting for Trump also troubled us about the candidate. (I should note that some are less troubled today.) So where do we differ? We differ on this: We hold that defeating Hillary Clinton, the Democrats, and the Left is also a principle. And that it is the greater principle.
Obviously, the Never Trumpers do not believe that. On the contrary, some of the most thoughtful Never Trumpers repeatedly tell us that the nation can survive four years of Hillary Clinton–Democrat rule. And then, they say, conservatism will have cleansed itself and be able to take back the nation after four calamitous years of a Hillary Clinton presidency — whereas if Trump wins, he will be the de facto face of conservatism, and then conservatism will have been dealt a potentially fatal setback.
This argument assumes that America can survive another four years of Democratic rule.”
————————————
America as we know it will not survive a Hillary appointed Supreme Court and Federal Court system.
Dennis Prager often says that Trump was his “17th choice” in the Republic primary and that it will give him no joy to cast a vote for him in November. But yet another 4 years — on top of 8 — under leftist policies, especially with the Supreme Court quite literally now teetering on the edge of a precipice, would be a disaster.
“The revelation was so shocking and yet no national news network in the U.S. bothered to cover or write about it.
Speaking at the United Nations headquarters in New York City, human rights activist and lawyer Jacqueline Isaac testified on April 28 about the atrocities being committed by the Islamic State (ISIS) including girls being raped, tortured and then dismembered with their body parts placed in bags—and then sending videos of these to their parents in Syria.
It took five months for the news to come out with CNS News reporting the story on Isaac’s U.N. testimony on Sept. 1.”
“WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange said Tuesday that he plans to release several batches of documents pertaining to the Hillary Clinton campaign within the next few weeks and the first could come out as soon as next week.
“The first batch is coming reasonably soon,” Assange said in an interview on “Hannity.” “We’re quite confident about it now. We might put out some teasers as early as next week or the week after.”
Assange didn’t give specifics about what would be in the leak, but has promised that WikiLeaks would release documents on the Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee that would have a significant impact on the looming general election.”
——————
“Assange called her excuses absurd and held up a document on “Hannity” that he said has Clinton’s signature and had a marking on top of the page to determine that the document was in fact “confidential.”
He added that WikiLeaks had released thousands of examples where she had used the classified marking and signed off on paper work with the marking and there were 22,000 other examples of when she received information from others with the marking.
“It’s incredible for Clinton to lie about not knowing what (the marking) is. And it’s a little bit disturbing (FBI Director) James Comey is along with that game.””
——————–
“Evan McMullin is running as an independent conservative alternative to Donald Trump. Who McMullin is running with, however, is a bit of a mystery.
In all nine states where he has officially qualified on the presidential ballot, McMullin has listed a “Nathan Johnson” as his vice presidential nominee. McMullin’s campaign won’t provide any more information about Johnson — including which of the thousands of people named Nathan Johnson the campaign is referring to — saying he is only a placeholder until McMullin names an actual running mate.
But in eight of the nine states, top election officials say McMullin’s campaign can’t pull Johnson’s name off the ballot, and that it’s “Nathan Johnson” — not whomever McMullin eventually names as his pick for Vice President — that will appear on the ballot.
If McMullin is indeed stuck with Johnson on the ballot, it marks an embarrassing setback for a candidate already struggling with a lack of national name recognition, a small budget and a late start to his race. And it provides more fodder to McMullin critics, who say his bid for president is less a serious run for higher office than an attempt at self-promotion.”
—————————-
Ya’ think? Always was. That’s why he polls in the 1% area.
“Donald Trump leads Hillary Clinton by 19 points — 55 percent to 36 percent — among voters who are currently serving or have previously served in the U.S. military, according to the latest NBC News|SurveyMonkey Weekly Election Tracking Poll.
The poll was conducted online from August 29 through September 4 among 32,226 registered voters, including 3,358 who have previously served or are currently serving in the U.S. military.
Despite several controversial statements regarding war veteran Sen. John McCain and Trump’s criticism of the Khan family, the GOP nominee has worked hard to secure the support of veterans and U.S. military members. On Tuesday morning, a group of 88 retired generals and admirals signed a letter backing Trump to reverse the “hollowing out” of the U.S. military.”
“Though Trump comfortably earns the support of military-affiliated voters overall, Clinton is perceived more favorably on the use of nuclear weapons.
A sizable number of military and veteran voters say they would not be confident in Clinton or Trump’s ability to be an effective commander-in-chief of the nation’s military — but a slight majority would be confident in Trump (53 percent).”
But don’t worry, like all refugees from countries that want us dead, he was “properly vetted” by the Obama admin. and they even brought him here to the US to train.
“Gulmurod Khalimov, the new ISIS military commander whom the U.S. just days ago announced a $3 million bounty for, was trained by the State Department in an anti-terror program as recently as 2014 while serving in the security service of Tajikistan.
He replaces former ISIS commander Tarkhan Batirashvili, aka Umar al-Shishani, who was also trained by the United States as part of the Georgian army and who ISIS claimed was killed fighting in Iraq this past July. The State Department confirmed Khalimov’s U.S.-provided training to CNN in May 2015:
“From 2003-2014 Colonel Khalimov participated in five counterterrorism training courses in the United States and in Tajikistan, through the Department of State’s Diplomatic Security/Anti-Terrorism Assistance program,” said spokeswoman Pooja Jhunjhunwala.
The program is intended to train candidates from participating countries in the latest counterterrorism tactics, so they can fight the very kind of militants that Khalimov has now joined.
A State Department official said Khalimov was trained in crisis response, tactical management of special events, tactical leadership training and related issues.”
“Unironically, the State Department spokeswoman said that Khalimov had been appropriately vetted:
“All appropriate Leahy vetting was undertaken in advance of this training,” said spokeswoman Jhunjhunwala.”

The GOP has proven ineffectual at stopping Obama, who has thrown open the gates to illegal immigrants; emasculated our military; ruled by decree through presidential orders; waged the most extensive and extreme culture war in American history to the point of dictating to the nation that men should be allowed into women’s changing rooms, restrooms, and locker rooms; exploded the national debt to an eye-popping $20 trillion; and built a legacy of foreign policy disasters from the rise of ISIS and the chaos of Libya and Syria to an emboldened China and Iran.
What will Hillary Clinton do if elected president? She will take Obama’s transformation of America to the next level.
SIS and their atrocities is well known — I don’t think there is a failure of media other than the short attention span of cable. ISIS is also not the product of Obama’s foreign policy rather the culmination of US policy in the region for almost a quarter of a century. Its a bipartisan comedy of errors and over ambitious imperialism.
As for the Tajik commander; he’s a mercenary. There are plenty Central Asian and Caucasus mercenaries in Syria — being paid to rape and pillage appeals to certain unsavoury characters who are veterans of various post-Soviet wars and rebellions. They were once America’s mercenaries and now they work for someone else — the free market economy of war, sell yourself to the highest bidder.
It will be after the election, and I am sure the speakers will have interesting stories to tell. I wonder if my wife would find it as boring as a football game.
Michelle, I had never heard of that magazine. It looks interesting. I have no year restriction on periodicals I read, so I’ll have to give it a try. It really looks like something my wife would enjoy.
I have being seeing a lot of Tara Setmayer on CNN since I started avoiding Hannity and O’Reilly. She is generally the sharpest person on any panel, and is often the only conservative in a sea of Trumpkins and Democrats. Brit Hume and the Murdochs should try to recruit her.
Zero hedge is generaly thought to be right wing but usually more policy driven or an ecometrics dream world. But something wasn’t quite right here. So i searched charity watch and charity navigator who gave the Clinton foundation an A rating or 5 stars. Look it up, these are sites designed to help people decide on their charity giving and are non political in nature. On both sites they do better than Red Cross.
Meanwhile Trump gives a Florida attorney general $25000 and she drops her investigation. Thats a straight forward bribery.
