Free Republic's reaction to Hillary Clinton's collapsing.

Some concerned individuals express their worry:

For a brief moment, Satan, deep in the darkest bowels of Hell, felt an involuntary shudder, thinking She was on her way.

It better have been the flu. I can't imagin a "little Bill" in the oven. Yuck!!!!

What a scammer - she couldn't stand any good press about Iraq and upstaged the news with her own little stunt.

Expect a statement about affordable health care any moment.

Could there be a little too much booze? Something has to aid her hypocrisy

She shouldn't spend late evenings romancing Nancy Pelosi.

My first thought as well! Faking it for attention?

Maybe she mentioned something TRUTHFUL and her mind blacked out ( Does not compute does not compute

"...and is now proceeding with her schedule as planned."

dang, for a moment there I was hopeful.
but revived and continued her scheduled appearances"
Argh! - I hate when that happens.



Christ's love is oozing from these posts, isn't it?

Oh, and here is the story: http://www.cnn.com/2005/ALLPOLITICS/01/31/clinton/

6. Yea, but there wasn't ONE post of concern or saying 'I hope she's okay'.
WTF? She is still a human, and according to that archaic tome those idiots selectively follow, God loves her as much as he loves each and every one of us and those Freepers.

But that is a part that most conservatives omit, along with the parts about not doing your sister. . .

12. In all fairness, there where a lot of people
hoping she was OK and praying for her (before the knew the extent of it at least). Many of them would say that first before launching ito their political shtick.

8. Out of all the comments there, this one stood out:
Edited on Mon Jan-31-05 03:52 PM by Bucky
This one comment is the only one that wasn't petty, insulting, or amused by Clinton's collapse. It's a simple statement of fact. When Reagan died there were some petty comments made by petty people, but for the most part DUers restricted their comments to sympathy for the family, attacks on Republicans over the stem cell issue, reviews of Reagan's performance in office, or attacks on the media for white washing the unpleasantries of his term in office. That was fair game. There was a mixture of appropriate and inappropriate responses. The Freepers, on the other hand, are almost universally nasty in their response to Hillary's misfortune. Here's the only polite response in the lot of them:
Hardly (what) I would term a "collapse". She got a little dizzy, that's all.

10. If it wasn't for DU I would never know that the Freepers are saying.
I wish people would stop posting their crap here. If I wanted a Republican's opinion, I would watch FOX or stick my head in a pile of cow manure.


The only question I have for Freepers is why they hate Hillary Clinton so much. Just mention Hillary and they go nuts. I don't get it. :shrug:

11. Senator declines hospitalization; continues on to second event
Senator declines hospitalization; continues on to second event

BUFFALO, N.Y. - Democratic Sen. Hillary Clinton collapsed Monday during a speech but aides said the former first lady quickly recovered from what they described as a fainting spell triggered by a 24-hour flu and continued on to a second public engagement.

"She's fine," aides to the junior senator from New York told NBC News.

An aide to the 57-year-old Clinton, who spoke with The Associated Press on condition of anonymity, said the senator had been suffering from a flu bug but pressed ahead with an appearance at the private Saturn Club before a group of women voters.

She was speaking about Social Security in a warm room in front of 150 people when she briefly lost consciousness, according to the aide.

"She was weak and needed to sit down. She fainted," the aide said.
