I'm confused. Maybe I need to wake up.; 7/29/16, 10:03 AM

Wince said...: Looks like a piercing.

Hillary: ...one in my clit... and I wear a stud in my tongue.

Vincent: Excuse me, but I was just wondering... why do you wear a stud in your tongue?

Hillary: It's a sex thing. It helps fellatio.; 7/29/16, 10:09 AM

Yet here’s a spot.

DOCTOR
Hark! She speaks. I will set down what comes from her, to satisfy my remembrance the more strongly.

LADY MACBETH
Out, damned spot! Out, I say!; 7/29/16, 10:12 AM
Bob Boyd said...: "According to witch-hunters during the height of the witch trials, the witches’ mark (not to be confused with a witches' teat) indicated that an individual was a witch.

The Witch or Devil's mark was believed to be the permanent marking of the Devil on his initiates to seal their obedience and service to him. He created the mark by raking his claw across their flesh. Sometimes, the mark was believed to have been left by the Devil licking the individual. The Devil was thought to mark the individual at the end of nocturnal initiation rites.
The witches' teat was a raised bump somewhere on a witch's body. It is often depicted as having a wart-like appearance." - Wikipedia, 'Witches' Mark'

The black thing in Hillary's mouth looks like it's planning to stay.; 7/29/16, 10:19 AM

mikee said...: Stop worrying about the dark spot on her tongue and start worrying about the empty spot where her soul used to be, before she sold it.; 7/29/16, 10:23 AM
Achilles said...: I bet her liver has more spots on it. If you could get through the layers of fat on that pear shaped body her liver would feel like a rock. Many people who lack confidence in their soul become alcoholics.; 7/29/16, 10:27 AM
PB said...: You'd have to compare with earlier pictures to see if this is new. If it's new then it is something that a doctor should check out. It's possible she could have had it her whole life, kind of like a freckle or like some other sort of relatively harmless skin discolorations.

rhhardin said...: Google canine tongue spots, click images. It's apparently normal. She gets it from licking herself.; 7/29/16, 10:32 AM
Gilbert Pinfold said...: As I mentioned in the original post bringing this point up, we know nothing about her health, despite publicized incidents like the "concussion", the Fresnel eyeglass lens at the Benghazi hearing in 2015, and the many pictures of her with a drink in hand during causal moments (and who as a politician really wants to be seen with drink in hand unless you are visiting a pub in a "woman of the people" moment. We haven't seen her medical records (or Obama's transcripts), but Dem donors are offering multi-million dollar bonuses for leaked Trump tax returns, basically suborning violations of federal privacy laws. Does anybody believe that the Koskinen/Lerner weaponized IRS won't drop those in some way into the Dem trough?; 7/29/16, 10:36 AM

gadfly said...: According to an old wives' tale, telling a lie causes a bump on the tongue, called "lie bumps" or transient lingual papillitis.

Hillary is an old wife who tells untruthful tales, so it all fits.; 7/29/16, 10:43 AM

I can pretty much guarantee you that Clinton's doctors are instructed to put nothing on paper or electronic forms that can identify her.; 7/29/16, 11:23 AM

I think Hillary's tongue issue is the result of a biopsy.; 7/29/16, 12:10 PM

"black spot on tongue"

Bad Lieutenant said...: If "biopsy" means "spot where a tumor was removed," I agree with "biopsy."; 7/29/16, 2:00 PM
Bad Lieutenant said...: Speaking of Cruz...

I hate to tell everybody this, but Mick was right!

Or at least he has foundation...from no less than Laurence Tribe:

http://www.politico.com/story/2016/07/laurence-tribe-trump-russia-226371

Though a former Obama mentor, Tribe also buttressed Trump’s charge against former Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz, one of his other former law students, over his citizenship and eligibility to serve as president.

He told The Guardian in January that according to the “originalist” judges Cruz so adored, “Cruz wouldn’t be eligible because the legal principles that prevailed in the 1780s and 90s required that someone be born on US soil to be a ‘natural born’ citizen.” Tribe subsequently penned an op-ed titled “Under Ted Cruz’s own logic, he’s ineligible for the White House” in the Boston Globe.

Or did everybody know this already?; 7/29/16, 2:02 PM

Wilbur said...: Get ahold of Tribe's 1976(7 or 8?) Con Law hornbook and read what he had to say about Presidential impeachment. Then think back to 1998 and remember that, although Professor Tribe was widely considered to be THE Con Law expert, he was nowhere to be found in print or the electronic media. He had written a lot of stuff very inconvenient to Slick Will.

A near-total partisan. Brilliant guy, but I don't get too worked up about anything he says.; 7/29/16, 3:31 PM
Wilbur said...: Professor A, this post produced some of the best comments I've seen in a while. But unfortunately I don't get to read more than about half the posts, so you have that.; 7/29/16, 3:35 PM
Bad Lieutenant said...: It's not a lozenge stain, I think. It is a depression, lower than the tongue's surface. Also that's a good trick, to keep a lozenge locked in place like that long enough for a ring to form, especially if you, y'know, talk.

My mother agrees FWIW, and she is a Hillary fan/Trump ick-er.

So, cancer. Coughing, sweats, popeyes, Fresnel lenses in the glasses from a "six month concussion." Any doctors to comment on the relevant medical issues? Head and neck tumors, brain tumors, what?; 7/29/16, 3:51 PM
Tess said...: some of us couldnt bring ourselves to watch any of it just news clips. A picture would have been nice.; 7/29/16, 4:33 PM
Anonymous said...: I posed the question yesterday in an earlier discussion thread here, when no one else seemed to have noticed the spot on her tongue.

Blogger Iapetus said...
BTW, look closely at Hillary in that picture. What's that prominent, dark, round spot on her tongue? Is it merely a defect in the photo or could it be a scar that's left over after surgery to remove a growth (possibly pre-cancerous) from her tongue?

david7134 said...: The lesion on her tongue is called geographic tongue. It occurs on older females and is not associated with cancer. There is no known cause, but likely is exacerbated by stress.; 7/29/16, 4:56 PM

You must be an MD who has examined her personalty or your statement would be unethical.; 7/29/16, 8:57 PM

And you must be a blogger account created last year and recently reactivated to quell the "little people" rising up against Her Highness.

Welcome to trenchant warfare.; 7/29/16, 10:24 PM
Chip said...: Still think it's probably a lozenge because I've had them melt down like that. Could be wrong. Regardless, I do think Hillary's potential health problems are being overlooked; I'm pretty sure, to cite one example, that she recently had a minor seizure that was captured on video -- and no one (other than her strident detractors) seems to have mentioned it.; 7/29/16, 11:14 PM
chickelit said...: @Chip: That wasn't a seizure...that was just Hillary mocking the disabled.; 7/29/16, 11:26 PM
Bad Lieutenant said...: Geographic tongue? Nonsense on stilts. But we're arguing on the internet. I suppose the only thing to do is watch for her to bray again and get another picture.; 7/30/16, 12:21 AM
Bad Lieutenant said...: By the way I'm not convinced that remote diagnosis is unethical per se. Remember the case of Bart Giamatti. There was a doctor who saw ballgame video of him and his clubbed fingers, the creases in his earlobes, and accurately diagnosed his heart condition.; 7/30/16, 12:23 AM
