Hillary Clinton Fainted & Had a Concussion, Is Now Recovering at Home — UPDATE: Will Not Testify on Libya

Hillary Clinton Fainted & Had a Concussion, Is Now Recovering at Home    UPDATE: Will Not Testify on Libya

AP

An ill Secretary of State Hillary Clinton fainted and suffered a concussion but was recovering at home, the State Department announced Saturday.

She will not testify on Capitol Hill next week about the attacks in Benghazi, Libya as previously scheduled.

“While suffering from a stomach virus, Secretary Clinton became dehydrated and fainted, sustaining a concussion,” State Department aide Philippe Reines said in a statement. “She has been recovering at home and will continue to be monitored regularly by her doctors. At their recommendation, she will continue to work from home next week, staying in regular contact with Department and other officials. She is looking forward to being back in the office soon.”

Clinton, 65, had been slated to testify Thursday about the Sept. 11 attack on the U.S. diplomatic outpost in Benghazi. A spokeswoman for Senate Foreign Relations Committee Chairman John Kerry (D-Mass.) told The Hill Clinton will instead send two deputies to testify in her place.

“Senator Kerry was relieved to hear that the secretary is on the mend, but he insisted that given her condition, she could not and should not appear on Thursday as previously planned, and that the nation’s best interests are served by the report and hearings proceeding as scheduled with senior officials appearing in her place,” Kerry spokeswoman Jodi Seth said.

House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairwoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-Fla.) said Clinton had been excused from appearing before her committee, but said she would have to testify eventually.

“I am sorry to learn of Secretary Clinton’s ill health and I wish her a quick and full recovery,” Ros-Lehtinen said in a statement, according to Politico. “It is, however, unfortunate that Secretary Clinton is unable to testify next week before the House Committee on Foreign Affairs on the investigation into the terrorist attack that killed four Americans and left others injured.”

Ros-Lehtinen added, “We have been combing through classified and unclassified documents and have tough questions about State Department threat assessments and decision-making on Benghazi. This requires a public appearance by the Secretary of State herself. Other cabinet secretaries involved should also be held publicly accountable.”

No details were immediately given on when or where Clinton fainted, though NBC News reported it occurred earlier in the week, not on Saturday.

Clinton, who is expected to leave her post soon as secretary of state, skipped an overseas trip this week due to the stomach virus.

    Well it obviously didn’t have any effect on her ability to lie. All so unbelievable – ya can’t make this stuff up. Fainting caused the concussion ?? AND that should keep her from testifying? Sometimes I think she is even worse then obama.

      So let’s see…
      “At their recommendation, she will continue to work from home next week, staying in regular contact with Department and other officials.” “…they do not expect Clinton to make that testimony as scheduled.”

      So she’s well enough to work from home, still be the State Dept’s commander in chief…
      BUT… Not well enough to testify?

      Well, at the very least, what about teleconferencing her testimony…

      Story should read that she partied too hard & was drunk leading to the fake explanation of a stomach virus. So drunk she fell down & bonked her head. She was celebrating the success of fast & furious #6 where they hypnotized kid into killing babies to create a crisis for their gun control purposes.

      This has got to be a Disney dream. Hill simply cannot testify, it’s just too stressful. Yet the Admin. ALLOWED “Gabby” to cast her vote on something as important as the Health Bill – even though she obviously had a “bit” more wrong than “fainting”!

This wicked bimbo is more evil than 0. She reminds me of the woman that rides the back of the beast in revelation. The Congress needs to get her under oath and get her in her filthy lies. She’s the one that signed the UN Resolution 16/18. John Kerry will be worse straight from the CFR. There is not one righteous, no not one. I think America is politically doomed and is in league with pure evil. I have never felt this before like I do now. We have very little saving grace left, it’s slipping fast.

Let’s see, Vince Foster died of a gun shot to the head; In 1997 Mary Mahoney, WH intern was murdered just before she was going public about sexual harassment in WH,; Ron Brown, Sec. of Commerce died in plane crash with gunshot wound, prior to going public; James McDougal, Whitewater partner, being investigated, a key witness, died in solitary confinement.
      Ed Willy found dead in 1992 of gunshot to head (wife: Kathleen Willey, claimed being groped in WH)
      Kathy Ferguson ( x-wife of Ark.state trooper found dead 1994) witness for Paula Jones
      Bill Shelton, Ark state trooper (fiancee of Kathy Ferguson)found dead l994 of gunshot wound.
      Suzanne Coleman (had affair when Bill was Ark. Atty. General) died of gunshot (and was preg)..

      There are 3 pages from 1999 filled with FOB’s who were killed during the hey-day. can’t print them all

      I’m glad she doesn’t have to perjure herself now. What an absolutely amazing coincidence in timing.

      Do we have ANY way to get these corrupt, morally bankrupt, bass-turds out of office and into prison, or even expatrioted? Or are we subject to the will of others without redress?

      Some here have suggested our “leaders” only have as much power as “we the people” give them. If this is true, the implication is that we don’t want individual liberty. Extremely disheartening.

      I think she meant to say: “I was running and ducking through the streets of Bosnia under sniper fire in an attempt to save a dying pregnant woman that was denied healthcare, but I was too late. I then carried the dead woman through a hail of gunfire when I was hit in the leg and I fell to the ground, suffering a concussion. The worst part was that the snipers had stolen all of my Yankee’s para familia, including the Yankee’s ball cap on my head.”

      She goes from BAD to WORSE. So what if she’s logged more miles than any other SEC of STATE ? She’s totally inept, a bull in a China shop; a totally classless representative for the USA and has accomplished NOTHING. She’s allowed herself to be a foil for Obama – taking the headlines away from him as needed. IF I were chairman of the committee trying to find out the truth on BENGHAZI, I would submit written questions to her to be answered now and then testified to ‘at a later date’.
      What a joke: She steps down and Kerry (the anti-American who met with France illegally during Viet Nam war), the faux War Hero – tax evader – gigolo, takes over (He hates America more than Obama) to further deteriorate American Interests around the world…watch out for him at the U.N. … HE could be the Anti-Christ…just sayin’ (for all the old Left Behind readers) ! And Sen. Hagel takes over Sec. of Defense? That RINO? The one who wants a greatly reduced Military presence? WELL…some of you guys voted for this. EVIL is saddling up. Turn to GOD now. Seriously.

      You can bet that the msm will give her a pass and with the tragedy in CT they will ignore her.Amazing how this administration has gotten away with wholesale murder of Americans in harms way and the same clowns that have been there for years IE: Kerry,Shumer and Reid will shed tears like lemon drops. When do we the People say enough and kick thier sorry butts out of Washington? Where are the patriots in the democratic party or are they all on the payroll of Obama?

      I am not a fan of Hillary but NEVERENDING think about it…fainting didn’t give her the concussion, falling to the ground and hitting her head because she fainted probably did it. I consider myself a conservative but when I read some of the comments made supporting some kind of conspiracy theory whether it is this article or others I lose my mind. To attack a story and manipulate the facts in favor of your loyalty to party is disgusting. But I guess that is what you get when people decide that the stories they hear on FOX News or MSNBC is scripture.
      Hillary testifying won’t raise the ambassador or the marines from the afterlife. The bottom line is I never thought that the GOP would be so foolish. The democrats use to be the ones who never had a plan to solve an issue. All I ever heard out of them is what everyone else was doing wrong and how they failed at this and that. The GOP I felt always took the high road, never sinking to slander or vicious attacks on others opinions. They relied on policy and deriving a solution to the problems. That credibility is vanishing and with it a large portion of my respect for them. If we keep blaming everyone else (even though they obviously have their flaws) for every problem we face or will face one day we will wake up, look around and realize we missed our shot at fixing our problems. We’re so busy attacking that we forgot the reason the GOP was great, we resolve problems with intelligent compromise not finger pointing. Times running

      Hillary’s remark reminds me of those insensitive people that go to a funerl and tell the bereaved ‘they know just how you feel’! No you don’t! Gee, I’m sure they have really punished the guy whose free-speech rights have been trampled-on! It is absolutely deadly to ‘humble ourselves’ before the Muslim Madmen! They didn’t like us before the film and they don’t like us afterward! There is nothing we can do to ameliorate the situation and so we shouldn’t waste our effort, our good will, or more imporantly our strengh, in apologizing for something a free man did in our midst! It’s almost as stupid as Obama travelling to New York to assure people that HE was going to MAKE THE POWER COMPANIES fix things after Hurricane Sandy, or go to Connecticut to speak at a funeral with the implied message that he/we are responsible for the use of an unauthorized firearm by a madman! I’m surprised he hasn’t visited the latest shark-bite victim to apologize for the mean old shark using his teeth to tear flesh! I wish he’d just apologize his way out of The White House! But, I don’t think he has the intellectual capacity to understand the HUGE APOLOGY he owes the American people for all the havoc he has wrought on us!

      As I have always imparted, the American public is soooo stupid, which reflects the mentality of the

      Moronic voters that voted for the current Moron that resides in the White House in 2008, AND,

      re-elects him in 2012, compounding the crime. The federal judicial system needs to hold Hillary’s

      feet to the fire and ensure that she testifies concerning the Benghazi Affair, at a later date. This

      is the brain-child of the Moron that resides in the White House, because if she testifies, it is all over

      for his presidency and for her in 2016. Why would anyone elect either of these individuals to the

      highest position in America, knowing what the American public knows about both despicable

      individuals: The Moron’s mentor was Frank Marshall Davis, a card carrying Communist, and Hillary

      if apparently a admirer of Saul Aslinsky who wrote, “RULES FOR RADICALS,” another known

      Communist, because she wrote a positive thesis endorsing this POS, if you follow. We currently

      maintain one Communist in the White House as the POTUS, therefore, the U.S. does not require

      another Communist, back-to-back in the same position, if you follow. Of all the individuals in the

      world to write a thesis, she chose another Communist, which leads me to believe she maintains a

      very shallow character, if you follow. She will not receive my vote in 2016, and hopefully, 99% of

      Americans will feel the same way. We need to know the truth in Benghazi.

      I hate to mention this, but I do not place much faith in the Black community, as a whole, using

      the Moron that currently resides in the White House, but not for long, with his fat, ugly, whining, and

      unappreciative side-kick whom the Moron sometimes addresses as his wife, for if memory serves me

      correctly, what has the Black community accomplished since 1865, eliminating their athletes and

      Hollywood stars? Where are all the scholars and men/women of letters, although I admire Larry

      Elder and Thomas Sowell, Black writers, because they do not flicker when they must admonish

      members of their race. Sowell detests the Moron, and rightfully so. The Moron epitomizes

      everyting that is incorrect in the Black community and is destined to make them pay for his

      political experiences, and will throw his admirers under the bus when they are no long useful, if

      you follow. The Moron, in my opinion, is “THE ANTI-CHRIST” because he has accomplished

      nothing and has done everything in his power as the POTUS, to subvert the progress of his adopted

      country, along with his boyfriend, George Soros, the most treacherous and treasonous immigrant

      permitted to obtain citizenship. Both the Moron and Soros, are not natural born citizens; Soros was

      a Nazi collaborator during World War Two but his wealth, purchased his citizenship and his rant

      against the United States. Both hate the United States, and contribute nothing positive for their

      Reagan was in his 70′s. And wasn’t it the LIB media who hated the “old man” who said he was already having problems with memory and joking about it whenever possible????
      I remember since I grew up with REAGAN as my President and remember the stench of lib back then. I didn’t know was a lib was, but I knew I didn’t like them or Tom Brokaw’s smirk.
      Hillary is faking and a LIAR. A requirement for being married to one and working for one and working with many in this FUBAR administration.
      Issa needs to tell this Maoist dressing feminazi to take an aspirin and march her white trash *ss up to D.C. to testify on Benghazi. This *itch is a criminal and should go to Leavenworth.
