Earlier this week, Hillary Clinton fainted as the result of a stomach flu and suffered a concussion. ABC News reports that she will likely be out sick for most of the rest of her term as Secretary of State. ABC also notes that this is not the first time Clinton has fainted as the result of an illness. But because this illness/injury has delayed her testifying about Benghazi, Fox has accused her of faking it.
As the video from Media Matters, below, shows, John Bolton opined,
“Every foreign service officer in every foreign ministry in the world knows the phrase I’m about to use, when you don’t want to go to a meeting or a conference or an event, you have a ‘diplomatic illness,’ and this is a diplomatic illness to beat the band. I certainly hope it’s nothing serious. But this was revealed in a way that I think was not transparent, and I think there’s an obligation here, especially if Secretary Clinton decides to run for President, to indicate what happened. She may beat testifying this week, but she’s not going to escape it forever.”
Greta fired back “I don’t think that she’s indicated she wants to not testify ever. I will say it has been reported prior to the concussion that she had the flu because she missed an overseas trip, and for a woman who’s lived in an airplane for 4 years, that was unusual. She reported that she was dehydrated, and if you fall and hit your head and get a concussion, that is a brain injury.”
But Media Matters also caught Fox’s Monica Crowley sneering that Clinton’s illness had “impeccable timing.”
When did John Bolton or Crowley become doctors?
So, Mr. Talking Toilet Brush . . .
Are we to assume you suffered from a ‘military illness’ as the reason you didn’t want to participate in a war you supported {Vietnam}?
Bolton supported the Vietnam War and enlisted in the Maryland Army National Guard, but did not serve in Vietnam. He wrote in his Yale 25th reunion book “I confess I had no desire to die in a Southeast Asian rice paddy. I considered the war in Vietnam already lost.” In an interview, Bolton discussed his comment in the reunion book, explaining that he decided to avoid service in Vietnam because “by the time I was about to graduate in 1970, it was clear to me that opponents of the Vietnam War had made it certain we could not prevail, and that I had no great interest in going there to have Teddy Kennedy give it back to the people I might die to take it away from.”

I continually fail to understand why this terrorist sympathizer is allowed to run his brush on Fox, instead
of sit in a cell in Gitmo wearing an orange jumpsuit . . .
