Deborah Foster, a Long Island school teacher and Hillary Clinton supporter who was ejected from the Rules & Bylaws Committee meeting on May 31, 2008 shows her bruises. Foster and others were shouting "Denver, Denver" when security removed them from the meeting.




I know that this board will just laugh at this, but I wanted to share.

[Shakespeare]

1. Bruises don't show up that fast.

Try again.

[FARAFIELD]

4. im Laughing cause its Funny

Whats a bruise among friends, sue them then we can talk about bruises

[Xenotime]

60. It amazes me how much laughter at DU is at the cost of people suffering...

You would think this is some FUCKING RW BLOG

[AngryOldDem]

8. And if they do, I suggest she get to a doctor, like right now.

Something ain't right.

[monomach]

2. She must have magic capillaries

My bruises don't turn black instantly.

In fact, I don't know anyone who has a body that works like that.

[SharonAnn]

25. Well, I do. People can bruise very easily and sometimes it's a sign or medical problems.

[Yael]

28. Potassium deficiencies.

[nadinbrzezinski]

36. Or anticoagulants, such as plavix

[Yael]

42. Yup.

[Buzz Clik]

3. "Don't bruise me, bro!"

[cabbage08]

52. LOL

[nsd]

55. Good one.

:rofl:

[Forkboy]

5. You're right...I'm laughing at it.

And at you. :rofl:

[ruby slippers]

6. I wish I had the actual school she teaches in because I would send

a copy of this to the Principal since she said she is going to "show her bruises to her kids". She needs to be fired if she does that. She is there to teach PE, not Civics, and besides, what kind of teacher would show personal things like that to her students?

Anyone know the exact school? This former teacher is ready to respond....

[nadinbrzezinski]

37. She actually said she'd be embarrassed to show this to the kids

[ruby slippers]

39. but as loony as she is, I'm sure she will wear sleeveless shirts and will

probably respond when it appears on Youtube. She needs to walk a thin line....

[nadinbrzezinski]

46. I'd not say loony... just passionate

very passionate

There is a difference

[ruby slippers]

51. no, I'm loony, I know one when I see one.....Passion cries.....

[anonymous171]

7. This is why Obama didn't want any counter demonstrations.

The pot bangers would invent all sorts of crazy stories involving strong Obama thugs attacking the poor defenseless Hillary womyn.

[WeDidIt]

12. When your foe is defeating themself

step out of the way and allow them to continue.

[anonymous171]

15. Sage advice. nt

[BlooInBloo]

43. Judge Judy version: "Shut up. You're winning."

[NotThisTime]

16. Thank god none went or those that did were quiet in the chambers

[Kittycat]

9. Liah Liah, pants on - LOOK OUT - Snipers!

[WeDidIt]

10. Deborah Foster: ABSOLUTE LIAR!

Brusing takes much longer than that. It's a medical fact.

[Occam Bandage]

18. Like half an hour, maybe. I don't think she's lying. Her bruises

seem pretty developed, but I'm still not sure it's outside the realm of possibility.

[Spazito]

49. For a bruise to turn that color it takes 1 - 2 days not the short time..

from when she was escorted out to when she went in front of the cameras. Even were she to have a medical condition where she bruises easily, the color changes stay consistent within a time frame.

[Drunken Irishman]

21. Not when you're older.

I remember my grandma would bump her arm on the table and 10 minutes later it'd bruise.

With that said, it's entirely possible the bruising wasn't because of abuse, but because, like my grandma was, she's older and when you're older, you bruise far easier.

[Occam Bandage]

11. I cannot for the life of me understand

why protesters who attempt to hijack peaceable meetings get offended when they get ejected, nor can I understand why they act as martyrs if they receive very mild injuries while resisting ejection.

[MrsT]

Bruises do not show up that quickly.

And I don't know why you would have any interest in creating another post that looney supporter in it. This is not helping our cause (not that I think you are interested in helping our cause).

[GarbagemanLB]

13. She's a P.E. teacher? Interesting...

[NashVegas]

17. Why Would You Say That?

[Barrymores Ghost]

24. Because she doesn't look like she could run around the block. n/t

[GarbagemanLB]

27. LOL.

[Bigleaf]

23. My thoughts exactly. Only running she does is to the fridge in the teachers lounge to get a twinkie

[NashVegas]

14. She's Got a Point

"Those idiot bosses in there have given us two winners in 40 years."

Those bruises look nasty.

[2rth2pwr]

20. I was waiting for someone to comment on that. She is right.

[quakerboy]

56. She does

Which is why it is so frustrating that some people seem desperate to make the Pledged Delegate numbers just a little closer, at any cost. All that will do is potentially provide a little cover to the "idiot bosses" to overturn them(us).

[Spazito]

19. Ummmm, those bruises do not look fresh....

The main symptoms are pain, swelling, and skin discoloration. The bruise begins as a pinkish red color that can be very tender to touch. It is often difficult to use the muscle that has been bruised. For example, a deep thigh bruise is painful when you walk or run.

Eventually, the bruise changes to a bluish color, then greenish-yellow, and finally returns to the normal skin color as it heals.

[ruby slippers]

29. and, I see no Fingerprint impressions in them. I think she was hoisting

pummel horses in the gym instead....

[Barrymores Ghost]

22. LOL!

Yeah, right. She's sporting bruises that turned to purple-black in a matter of minutes? What a fucking loon.

[Yael]

26. Potassium deficiency.

Recommend bananas...

[Barrymores Ghost]

She's bananas enough. n/t

[ruby slippers]

31. or stop her daily aspirin regimen.....

[nadinbrzezinski]

41. Ask your doc before you do that

[ruby slippers]

44. true, I was just being funny but she must be on it to bruise so easily,

especially there....

[nadinbrzezinski]

45. That is an old bruise

trained eye, what can I say?

[ruby slippers]

53. agreed on that one, too....

[nomaco-10]

33. Usually brought on by mass consumption of...

alcohol. She looked like she slams back a few on a regular basis.

[nadinbrzezinski]

30. Is she on anticoagulants? Not kidding here

that would be the ONLY explanation. As a medic I know that a bruise like that looks a tad OLD... as in about a day old

And in ten years I saw my share of bruises... many of them, and broken bones

[AllentownJake]

32. She was causing problems

and her ass got tossed. Guess what they were told they would be thrown out if they caused trouble and she got tossed.

In addition I don't think those bruises were fresh.

[Kokonoe]

34. You can pretty much guess the age of a bruise just by looking at its color:

When you first get a bruise, it's kind of reddish as the blood appears under the skin.
Within 1 or 2 days, the hemoglobin (an iron-containing substance that carries oxygen) in the blood changes and your bruise turns bluish-purple or even blackish.
After 5 to 10 days, the bruise turns greenish or yellowish.
Then, after 10 or 14 days, it turns yellowish-brown or light brown.

[Tatiana]

35. I don't think that was right.

She clearly had a large bruise. I don't know if she is the type that bruises easily, but it looks like she was man-handled.

[jbnow]

57. If she is a PE teacher I hope she doesn't bruise so easily nt

[zulchzulu]

38. File under: Who Gives A Shit

The link is broken. Like the Hillbot.

:boring:

[Ichingcarpenter]

40. I just got $10 million dollars in less than 24 hours!!

and then I got shot at by snipers going to the bank.

[Florida4Obama]

47. she's gonna get a notice from her job

i wouldnt be surprised if she got fired

[bowens43]

48. she should have been forcibly removed the 1st time they interrupted.

the fucking moron Hilliary supporters were every bit as vile and disgusting as the pigs who stormed the 2000 vote counting.

[OzarkDem]

50. She should sue

let the judge sort it out.

[quakerboy]

59. True enough

If she was indeed wronged, she should. But most likely she will not, since the most likely causes of that bruise are either (preexisting) or (easily bruised, no "harsh treatment" needed). Neither would seem likely to have any positive end result for her if she were to take action through it.

[countmyvote4real]

54. And their disruption was supposed to be met with what...

Chocolates and flowers?
Reverse math?
Party unity?

Not for HRC.

[The_Casual_Observer]

58. No sympathy from the "hope & change" mob.

[OhioBlue]

62. sympathy for what?

A lady that disrupted a meeting was removed.

She has bruises. Most likely pre-existing.

So, whatever she was doing 1-3 days ago gave her a bruise. Who here doesn't have a bruise?

Oh, and btw - Hope and Change doesn't mean that we ignore truth and rules. That would be more of the same.

[Renew Deal]

61. She should lose her teaching license.

For starting a physical altercation with security.

BTW, it's a bit hypocritical to say that the big boys did anything. She's with the big boys.

[swishyfeet]

63. Here's a thought... don't be a disruptor. Be thankful you weren't tazed.

:P
