New York--A rep for hospitalized Secretary of State Hillary Clinton confirms the blood clot is lodged near her brain confirming The National Enquirer´s special reports on her condition. (Snip)“Behind the scenes,Hillary has suffered blinding headaches, problems with her vision and memory, plus terrifying blackouts – and those closest to her say she’s hiding a brain cancer secret,” a source revealed, according to our bombshell report. “If Hillary is indeed diagnosed with brain cancer, the fear that she could die in a manner of months has devastated those in her inner circle.

I know it is easy to be cynical, but I would not wish such a problem on my worst enemy if it is true. I hope she is not in such danger even if I can´t stand her politics or ideology.

1. She didn´t fall. 2. She didn´t have a concussion. 3. She didn´t develop a blood clot. 4. She´s not SICK in the hospital. 5. She´s not going to explain Benghazi.

"Hillary has suffered blinding headaches, problems with her vision and memory, plus terrifying blackouts"

This was her testimony in Whitewater.

I find this death-watch to be macabre and unseemly, but then, the press has never been known for its honesty or its sense of appropriateness.

If Hillary is ill, she needs our prayers. If she is not and is using a fixable problem for political sympathy, she needs to get a sense of honor about her, if that is possible.

As much as I despise the old hag,I don´t wish cancer o nher.In fact if it does turn out she does,I"ll repent and pray for her. But I´m not going to take the NE´s word on anything.In fact I don´t take anybody´s word on her condition.Even if a clot is in the concussion area,it could be a serious condition but all we´re getting is leaks and unconfirmed reports. There´s no way a doctor could say she´ll be fine after a period of time if she has a brain blood clot,unless he´s just a mouthpiece or quack.

Of course none of us here agree with her politics, but if she´s really sick, we should be praying for her not beating up on her. There is a place for that in another context. Let´s not stoop to the name calling tactics of liberals. We should have more class than that.

Chapter 10 in the life of a drama queen. I agree with the poster, above, who said the Clintons just aren´t worth it. Truer words were never spoken.

I don´t have to wish her dead in order to be extremely hopeful that she will be out of the picture in American government. Don´t mistake that wish with a wish for her ultimate demise. The two are totally separate and the second is my wish. Horn Dog, too, along with Little Miss Priss. Throw in Zero and the Sasquatch while you are at it. America would be far, far healthier without these people in government.

I´m a relatively new comer on this site, having been allowed to join during the last time an opportunity was offered. Maybe a year ago? Was a reader for maybe a year or so prior to that. Seems to me that in that relatively short period the overall character of comments has come to resemble the more rabid leftist sites. Gratuitous attacks, nonsensical comments and instantaneous, reflexive reactions to articles referencing assorted individuals from either side of the aisle, regardless of the article´s content. Others have said it before, it´s a salon, not a saloon. Or, at least that´s what I thought it was when I first began reading.

The faithful part of me would like to pray for her, and I do to the extent that this is true. But ah, there´s that little red guy standing on my other shoulder that´s laughing at me for believing any of this.

I heard on radio news during the night that she does have a clot behind her right ear, between her brain and her skull. That´s pretty detailed information, and must have come from intensive and extensive testing. She IS our Secretary of State, after all, until she´s not, and that´s an important position for anyone.

She travels a lot, and we all know these clots can develop in the legs from that much inactivity and face it, her legs were clumpy-looking already. Clots travel - that´s also a fact - and this story is entirely possible.

If you believe anything from the Clintons. What I´d like clarified and/or defined is the term ´blackouts´.... does this mean she lost consciousness, like the fainting that was reported? Or is she developing an alternate personality and doing things she just can´t remember.

Uh oh - there´s that memory thing again. I´m beginning to believe we have a narcissistic sociopath in the White House, and a schizophrenic negotiating our foreign policy and deals.

Our poor grandchildren have (blissfully) no idea of what´s happening in the real world of the grownups controlling their futures.

25, the ct would not have traveled from another part of her body to the brain. The clot would go, ultimately, to the lungs, causing a pulmonary emembolism.
Because Hillary, along with Bill and the kenyan klown, are so dishonest, the natural reaction to any assertion coming from her or them is one of disbelief.
You are asking us to have a ´suspension of disbelief.´ Did you get that from Senator Hillary?

It does sound like more than a blood clot. Strange there are no reports about Bill or Chelsey´s visits, concern, etc., that usually go with such stories. No mention of Obama´s heart going out to her and her family and praying (on his Muslim knees) for her speedy recovery.

As many other Ldotters, I, too, wish SOS Clinton a quick recovery.

While it seems convenient that she has a reported memory problem, I can´t help but wonder if someone in Obama´s tight inner circle was worried about what she would say if she testified before Congress. Is it possible something could have been slipped into her food or drink to temporarily incapacitate her? hmm? Just asking - not accusing.

You might want to ask Bill Clinton before you start making fun of The Enquirer. I´m not a subscriber in any sense of the word but I can tell you this unequivocally- it may be the last vestige of reporters that actually work for a living.

More than six months since Ambassador Christopher Stevens was assassinated by terrorists in Benghazi, the Obama administration is still trying to keep a lid on information about the attack. Congress and the American people need to know what happened the night of Sept. 11, 2012. Who did the killing and what was their motive? Why wasn´t help sent? And why did the administration lie about who was responsible?

Last month, the Supreme Court decided to allow the importation and resale of foreign editions of American works, which are often cheaper than domestic editions. Until now, courts have forbidden such activity as a violation of copyright. Not only does this ruling open the gates to a surge in cheap imports, but since they will be sold in a secondary market, authors won’t get royalties. (Snip)But it is the latest example of how the global electronic marketplace is rapidly depleting authors’ income streams.

For the 30th straight month, the United States economy added jobs in March, albeit still at a pace too sluggish to put a big dent in the backlog of 11.7 million idle workers. The nation’s employers increased their payrolls by 88,000 last month, compared with 268,000 in February, according to a Labor Department report released Friday. The unemployment rate, which comes from a different survey, ticked down to 7.6 percent from 7.7 percent. The slight decrease in the unemployment rate occurred not because more unemployed people got jobs,

Tokyo—The Bank of Japan [8301.JA +4.83%] is pulling out all the stops to get the economy out of deflation, its new governor said, after the central bank rolled out aggressive easing measures that surprised markets, pushing bond yields to an all-time low and boosting share prices. At his inaugural policy board meeting Thursday, Haruhiko Kuroda convinced the nine-member panel to agree to a major expansion of government bond purchases, including buying longer-term debt, which is designed to drive down longer-term rates. The BOJ also broke free from some self-imposed limits that the previous leadership under Masaaki Shirakawa adhered to.

Istanbul--The blue-glass skyscrapers of Moscow City — fragments of Russia’s boom-time dream — are visible from the Kremlin walls, within which there was once hope that those towers could supplant the West’s financial centers. When the sun sets behind them, you can see that many of the offices lie empty.In fact, the real hubs for Russian banking are in other countries. Moscow’s billionaires squirrel their fortunes abroad, and many businessmen register their companies as British, Dutch, Swiss or Cypriot — anything but Russian. Whistle-blowers would have us believe that even President Vladimir V. Putin stashes his money offshore.

Nicosia, Cyprus—-Lines formed outside banks in Cyprus´s capital early Thursday, but there was little sign of panic as the island´s lenders reopened after a two-week hiatus. Small groups of depositors—mainly numbering a few dozen, mostly pensioners—pressed to enter the banks as they formally reopened at noon (1000 GMT) local time. Police officers and security guards at Bank of Cyprus in Nicosia´s old town allowed eight depositors in at one time.

Nicosia, Cyprus--When European finance chiefs explained their harsh terms for rescuing Cyprus this week, many blamed the tiny Mediterranean nation’s wayward banking practices for bringing ruin on itself. But the path that led to Cyprus’s current crisis — big banks bereft of money, a government in disarray and citizens filled with angry despair — leads back, at least in part, to a fateful decision made 17 months ago by the same guardians of financial discipline that now demand that Cyprus shape up.

Whatever the final outcome in the Cyprus crisis — we know it’s going to be ugly; we just don’t know exactly what form the ugliness will take — one thing seems certain: for the time being, and probably for years to come, the island nation will have to maintain fairly draconian controls on the movement of capital in and out of the country. In fact, controls may well be in place by the time you read this. And that’s not all: Depending on exactly how this plays out, Cypriot capital controls may well have the blessing

Cyprus postponed for yet another day an emergency parliamentary session to discuss a bailout plan that will see the country´s bank depositors share part of the burden, the house speaker said Monday. The Cypriot parliament is now scheduled to meet Tuesday at 1600 GMT, house speaker Yannakis Omirou told reporters. The parliament had been due to meet Monday at 1400 GMT as the government sought to push the levy through parliament before banks reopened Tuesday after a three-day bank holiday. The vote delay means that the bank holiday will likely be extended for at least another day.

Michelle Obama has admitted that she is already tired of the bangs she first sported in January. The First Lady said in an interview with Entertainment Tonight: ´Bangs are a day-by-day proposition. They´re starting to grow out, get a little irritating.´ Still, she hasn´t let her hairdo woes get her down. ´It´s okay,´ she said after her initial complaint. ´We´ll be good.´ The first indication that her hairstyle was becoming a burden came about last weekend, when Malia, 14, was spotted adjusting her mother´s hair during the White House Easter Egg Roll.

North Korea’s young leader Kim Jong-un is waiting for United States President Barack Obama to make a phone call to Pyongyang to discuss easing tensions on the Korean peninsula, according to Russia’s news agency Itar-Tass. The report cited United Kingdom diplomats, saying Pyongyang was demanding the U.S. president personally call Kim Jong-un as one of the conditions to relieve the current conflict at hand. Itar-Tass also quoted the U.K.’s Sky News as saying North Korea currently has eight nuclear warheads.

Recent research indicates that the number of people who do not consider themselves a part of an organized religion is steadily on the rise. Interestingly enough, though the number of those religiously unaffiliated is increasing, there is little to no trend in the number of those who express atheist or agnostic beliefs. People aren’t saying they don’t believe in God. They’re saying they don’t believe in religion. They are not rejecting Christ. They are rejecting the church. This begs the question, “Why are we losing our religion?”

Los Angeles — Some people have had it with TV. They´ve had enough of the 100-plus channel universe. They don´t like timing their lives around network show schedules. They´re tired of $100-plus monthly bills. A growing number of them have stopped paying for cable and satellite TV service, and don´t even use an antenna to get free signals over the air. (Snip) Last month, the Nielsen Co. started labeling people in this group "Zero TV" households, because they fall outside the traditional definition of a TV home. There are 5 million of these residences in the U.S., up from

Annette Funicello, the dark-haired darling of TV´s “The Mickey Mouse Club” in the 1950s who further cemented her status as a pop-culture icon in the ´60s by teaming with Frankie Avalon in a popular series of “beach” movies, died Monday. She was 70. Funicello, who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1987 and became a spokeswoman for treatment of the chronic, often-debilitating disease of the central nervous system, died at Mercy Southwest Hospital in Bakersfield, Walt Disney Co. spokesman Howard Green said. Funicello and her husband, Glen Holt, had moved from

More than 700 Special Operations veterans are urging members of Congress to back a select committee to investigate last year’s Benghazi terrorist attack, according to a letter first obtained by Fox News. The letter from the group, “Special Operations Speaks,” supports the appointment of a special committee tasked with the single mission of investigating the attack that left Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three other Americans dead, and shut down the CIA operation in an annex of the Benghazi consulate, in the Sept. 11, 2012 attack. “Congress must show some leadership and provide answers to the public

Chelsea Clinton has raised her profile in the last few days, which sparked the inevitable question about the former first daughter´s future: Will she ever be like Mom and Dad and run for office? Clinton, 33, essentially said "maybe" in an interview that aired Monday on NBC´s Today show. "Right now I´m grateful to live in a city, a state and a country where I strongly support my mayor, my governor, my president and my senators and my representative," said Clinton, whose father, Bill, was president from 1993-2001 and her mother, Hillary

Susan Patton, the Princeton alumna who became famous for her letter urging Ivy League women to use their college years to find a mate, has been denounced as a traitor to feminism, to coeducation, to the university ideal. But really she’s something much more interesting: a traitor to her class. Her betrayal consists of being gauche enough to acknowledge publicly a truth that everyone who’s come up through Ivy League culture knows intuitively —

President Barack Obama is bringing 11 relatives of those killed in the shooting at Connecticut´s Sandy Hook Elementary School to Washington on Air Force One on Monday so they can personally encourage senators to back gun legislation that faces tough opposition. A nonprofit organization that works with the families, Sandy Hook Promise, said that after Obama´s speech on gun control in Hartford, he is flying with relatives of seven children and one staffer killed during December´s massacre at the school. The White House says Obama is going to argue that lawmakers have an

There was growing buzz over the weekend that a bipartisan agreement on gun control — a deal that would expand background checks — could hit the floor as early as this week. However, any deal could be derailed by the looming threat of a Republican filibuster involving Texas Sen. Ted Cruz. With Cruz standing proudly in the way of any gun legislation, Democrats are trying to make him pay a political price — and even a couple of high-profile Republicans are questioning his tactics.
