According to a State Department spokesperson, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was unable to respond due to “female problems you really don’t want to hear about.”
That's very strange. If she were truly ill with an ordinary illness, they would be announcing it. I don't believe the concussion story. A person could appear at office parties with a concussion. It's as if she has been disappeared.
There is no disadvantage for her to incur comments, criticisms, or snarky remarks. There is no disadvantage for her to avoid questioning on Bengahzi. There is no disadvantage for the Obama administration to let her hang out for a while and take the heat for a screw up. Particularly, there is no disadvantage for the executive branch not to remind people that Benghazi is even in Libya.
On the contrary, separating the country from the city in the minds of the American public, congress, and the media, has been accomplished much to their great advantage.
In a sane society her performance as SoS, concluding with her reported failure to hold the incompetents responsible for Benghazi accountable, would end her presidential hopes.
In the celebrity worshipping, parasitic banana republic we have become, no problemo.
When you add up all the bimbos, shady financial deals, state cops running cover, phony outrage, carpetbagging, lies and lies, anything is possible except a truthful testimony about Benghazi. This is a couple with a 35 plus years track record of dishonesty.
Anyone else predicting a trgic helicopter or car crash as a possibility in the near future? That's how they handle these type of things in Russia and China....
She ran out of gas. She had a flat tire. She didn't have enough money for cab fare. Her pantssuit didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole her car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T HER FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!
Clinton's last trip, to the Czech Republic, Belgium, Ireland, and Northern Ireland ...
Not Mexico? I was assuming Montezuma's revenge. Although those Belgium chocolates will do it to you. And the sickest I've ever been was after drinking a couple pints of Guinness stout then driving home from the party on rural washboard roads.
But, yeah, I think she's hiding and not really all that sick. If she was all that sick why isn't she in a hospital?
For those really young, or who've forgotten the Clinton years, anything she or her reps say is / is not a lie. Who knows? Liars lie. Con men con. Some things really are simple.
Don't forget. She's one of the REALLY equal animals. Rules do not apply. Animal Farm. LOL.
Kidnapped? Dead? Baking cookies? Nervous breakdown? Depression? She's fallen and she can't get up? Gone Galt? Guantanamo? Working out polyamoric sex schedule spreadsheet for her, Huma, Weiner and Bill?
My guess is she is having a ferocious recurrance of a social disease Bill gave her. Or Huma or one of the members of her inner circle bulldyke coven gave her in one of their orgies when Dubya was President.
Think her lips...covered in Herpes sores no makeup can mask.. Or a big recurrance of syphilis she didn't even know she had caused a giant chancre to erupt square in the middle of her forehead...
I hope that she's not ill, or at least that she gets better. I don't wish bad things for her at all.
I suppose I ought to be all filled with glee at the thought she might be miserable on account of I don't like her or her politics. I can't seem to take myself there, though.
Regarding the topic of her 2016 candidacy, I'm having a hard time imagining our image-obsessed society will go for the dour-looking, cranky, overweight grandma with a walk-in closet full of skeletons. I don't think she's inevitable or even likely. And if she's away from the public spotlight for 4 years, she'll be just an afterthought.
Hillary got a marijuana prescription but was told she had to get it filled in Washington State... but of course, she cant travel because of her condition... so she had the brilliant idea of sending Bill to get it and she still waiting.
She finally tracked him down with her stolen iPhone app but Bill had a story ready for her.
Bill tells Hillary that the secret service got a hold of the prescription and last he heard from them they were in Colombia... and of course he had to go with them otherwise he would loose his protection... you cant have a former president walking around Vegas w/o protection.
Awwww... female troubles. Code words for 'men are automatically disqualified from asking where she is.' A land mine in the 'war on women'. Women won't ask, of course, because they want the option of using the same excuse when the need arises. And at her age she should be done with menopause, so it's really just BS. Except I'm a guy and not allowed to say that.
To me at least, the VD theory is plausible, very plausible. Pity she could not testify wearing a Burqua, but give the democrats 20 more years of power and Open Borders to get new 3rd World Democrats in waiting in...
Speaking of Muslims....I think it more plausible that Huma beat her up in a jealous rage when Hillary declared she just couldn't bear to out herself and move in with Huma vs. Bill, when she leaves office. Huma's "beard", Anthony Weiner, had no comment other that to cryptically allude to the fact that "a picture is worth a thousand words".
By the way, are we really supposed to believe that while she's been away from home about 85% of the time over the last few years, that Bill has still been faithful to her this entire time?
They're lined up. Hillary's on the right near the center. She looks at her teammates left, right. Eyebrows knit into one, if she had eyebrows, they've long been shaved off but the skin underneath that would have contained brows knitted in consternation and determination fell across her face
Red Rover, Red Rover send Hillary right over.
Hillary braced herself. Like a cartoon she turned into a canon right before everyone's eyes. She was fully determined to defy physics and hurl her own body collapsing space between two lines and blast through
Red Rover, Red Ro ..
BLAM!
The old woman Hillary took half steps with her walker clunk clunk clunk clunk as everyone fell silent, no taunting, no encouragement, just silence and clunk clunk clunk the team calling Red Rover stayed in line but went disconnected, some pulled out their cell phones, another began filing her nails. Still others just stood there waiting. She did reach the line, but they were no longer connected. A single team member reached forward and pushed over the walker and she collapsed right there.
And thus came to a close the aspirations of a dynasty. For that day.
Hagar said... According to a State Department spokesperson, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was unable to respond due to “female problems you really don’t want to hear about.”
=================== I agree that if Huma was laying the dildo on Hillary a little too hard and a little too fast and gave Hillary a bad vaginal, bladder infection in the process it is something the public would not want to know about. If not for the matter of 4 dead guys and others with crippling wounds.
We should vote on this. Here should be the four options.
1. Hillary is playing dead. 2. Hillary is playing the sympathy card, which is working with those who are sympathetic to her, but her "concussion" is making her a laughingstock to those for whom she is already a laughingstock. 3. Hillary is seriously impaired and cannot be made available for comment (she's sixty and is having a period, period!). 4. I don't know for sure.

Joe Schmoe: her looks and her closet (both kinds, nudge nudge) won't matter one bit, as the MSM will cover for her.
We'll be assured at every turn that she represents the apex of boomer style, growing old gracefully, etc. She'll be on the covers of Vogue, GQ, Rolling Stone, and Better Homes and Gardens all in the same month.
Hillary's absence might be because she is in secret rehearsals for the return of the show "The Fantastics". Who can forget her performance of "Try to Remember"?
It was show stopping. Literally.
Asked whether she knew why McDougal would have written "Payoff Clinton" in the note section at the bottom of the check, Hillary Clinton said: "I have no information whatsoever."
It is just that after Bill's experience, the Clinton's are chary of perjuring themselves again. She will testify when the Senate agrees to her script for her appearance, and not before.
@Synova, if you get back into writing please consider the evidence Sherlock Holmes found in the case of "Silver Blaze."
The thing that should be there and isn't is a hospital stay. Hillary has been out of public view for 19 days but apparently hasn't been to a hospital?
It may turn out that she has been in a hospital under an assumed name, but why? Other than that, what could she have that leaves her home-bound for almost three weeks but isn't serious enough for a hospital stay?
I have been guilty of making light of this situation but there's nothing to make anyone think there is some real health problem going on.
But I know full well that stuff happens and I don't wish that on her and understand a desire for privacy. When you dished out bad karma for so long, don't expect the Monopoly Man to deal you a Get Out of Jail Free Card. Vast Right Wing Conspiracy my ass.
and it is notnecessarily just about the night in Benghazi. It may be something bigger about the whole Libyan "war of liberation." Whatever it was, I think it was cooked up in the State Department. Instapundit has a post up saying those four Stae Dept. employees wh got "fired" are all back on the job like nothing happened.
Women's troubles at her age? Hysterectomy. Keeping it quiet because it would only make becoming the first woman president harder if she lacked a uterus to boot.
Our barbed jabs and japes have now become very hurtful. If we could see energy then we would see it pooling here, damaging, negative, unconscionable energy, dark bleak and heavy, collected here refined and focused, directed at an injured party, and that is bad. I feel bad. So please stop it and buy me an ice cream.
No waitwaitwaitwaitwait I feel extra bad, buy me an ice cream cake.

She played the female-troubles card, according to Instapundit.

Instapundit
Did anyone check the Mayo Clinic?
Specifically the bed next to Jesse Jackson Jr.?
Is hiding and pretending to be sick the new method for Democrat politicians to avoid facing the consequences of their deeds?
Concussion, female problems, she'll be alright by 2016, all's well that ends well for Hillery.
As soon as her bout with gingivitis clears up, she'll be glad to appear in public and smile, smile, smile.
I thought liberated women soldiered on through that sort of thing.
If not, then all the setasides for brawds oughta be thrown out.
I think she spends her days in a drunken stupor.

The Instapundit "quote" is one of his running jokes about Hillary's disappearance.
She's been MIA for 19 days.
Something's up.
She is becoming a bit clownish, even in her beloved media.
Maybe she's dead. Has anyone gone over to her house. I know Bill hasn't.
If someone knows her address, please call 911 and have an ambulance sent over, RIGHT NOW!
In a sane society her performance as SoS, concluding with her reported failure to hold the incompetents responsible for Benghazi accountable, would end her presidential hopes.
In the celebrity worshipping, parasitic banana republic we have become, no problemo.
If she is ill, I do hope she has a speedy recovery. Being sick sucks.
Well, MadMan, it's been 19 days, so you can rule out the speedy recovery.
"If she is ill, I do hope she has a speedy recovery. Being sick sucks."
I agree, but given the sheer number and variety of reported afflictions, I'm guessing she's hiding.
Flight 69U now departing for Mena, Arkansas.

No need to imagine elaborate causes, when simple cowardice suffices, and fits the circumstances.
The next time the woman accepts the consequences of her policies and actions (and inactions), will be the first.
She ran out of gas. She had a flat tire. She didn't have enough money for cab fare. Her pantssuit didn't come back from the cleaners. An old friend came in from out of town. Someone stole her car. There was an earthquake. A terrible flood. Locusts! IT WASN'T HER FAULT, I SWEAR TO GOD!
I hope there's more of gravy than of grave about this.
Anyone up for a search of Ft. Marcy Park?
Word I hear is that she has a paper cut on the pinky of her left hand.

My bet is a face lift surgery.
She is in her mansion, alone with her sled, murmuring "Whitewater. Whitewater...."
This is somewhat like the Paul McCartney is dead bit back in the 60's.
Woman problems?
Isn't she past menopause?

She is dead, politically.
OT: Stuart Schneiderman of Had Enough Therapy?nominates our own Miss Ann for the Light of Reason Award (if it exists).
She's looking for her billing records?
For those really young, or who've forgotten the Clinton years, anything she or her reps say is / is not a lie. Who knows? Liars lie. Con men con. Some things really are simple.
Don't forget. She's one of the REALLY equal animals. Rules do not apply. Animal Farm. LOL.
Where's Hillary?
Kidnapped?
Dead?
Baking cookies?
Nervous breakdown?
Depression?
She's fallen and she can't get up?
Gone Galt?
Guantanamo?
Working out polyamoric sex schedule spreadsheet for her, Huma, Weiner and Bill?
Reminds me so much of Andropov's and Chernenko's "colds."
These clowns can't do anything that the Communists haven't already done, can they?
Mr. Balding Mustache Advisor.
In Blair House.
With the Income Tax Records.
edutcher, You think what you wish, is what is. I'm no fan of Hillary, but I am a gambler. I would make her the favorite for prez in 2016.
On a super secret covert mission to apologize for Fast and Furious?
I dunno. Where CAN'T you testify via teleconferencing--even from you laptop? I suspect somewhere where electrons don't spin.
Is she hiding or truly ill?
It can be both, can't it? She's done it before.
Hilary had accumulated a ton of sick time and shes making use of it before she leaves.
Its a 2016 wink and nod to the unions.
Whatever it is, media has her back.
She's good to go in 2016.
Yeah, this won't hurt her if she decides to run in 2016. If she's still alive, that is.
This is going to make Congress even pissier about the whole Benghazi business.
If I was Hillary I'd join a cloistered order right about now.
I hear the Blessed Sisters of Misery are looking for postulates now.
Hillary has the piles. Appropriately enough.
Some sympathy, people. Piles are no fun.
Unfortunately she has earned the skepticism with her trail of lies.
Shes shopping around for a doctor that would give her a note so she can comeback to work... but she cant find one that's not pissed with Obamacare.
That's not Hillary. It's a MAN, BABY!
Man, those Presidential ambitions are taking a beating with her routine as of late.
How bad WAS Benghazi if she would rather lose the Presidency than testify about it?
Bill finally snapped and beat the livin' shit out of her. She is waiting for the swelling to go down and the bruises to fade
;-P
Her doctor told her to go home and put her feet up.
She's still trying to.
That was 19 days ago.
My guess is she is having a ferocious recurrance of a social disease Bill gave her.
Or Huma or one of the members of her inner circle bulldyke coven gave her in one of their orgies when Dubya was President.
Think her lips...covered in Herpes sores no makeup can mask..

On morning soon NPR will begin playing mournful classical music instead of regular programming.
I believe traditionalguy has it correct.
She will reappear looking 10 years younger and 20 pounds lighter.
