Hillary supposedly being helped up some steps. Does anyone know what this is about?
(For some reason. I can't post the picture.)

(31,513 posts)Of course, it's being used as "proof" that her health is bad.

(5,519 posts)They are attacking her for choices made when she was just out of law school.
Yeah... they got nothing. That they are showing her saying the thing about middle class taxes and saying that AREN'T was ARE... they just have nothing.
Can't wait for the debates!

(27,813 posts)That's funny - because JPR has the same photo up, along with some truly disgusting comments.
I wonder why the "progressier-than-thou" folks over there always seem to run the same photos, articles, conspiracy theories, etc. as RW sites - complete with the same clueless remarks.
Things that make you go hmmmm ...
Arkansas Granny
(31,513 posts)I found it were rw sites with no explanation, just claims that she's weak, has brain damage, etc.

(27,813 posts)... on many RW websites. I know it is.
I'm just pointing out the fact that JPR frequently runs exactly the same stuff that RW sites run - and they also claim that Hill is physically weak as well as brain damaged. JPR also ran the same photo without explanation.
Funny how those who used to claim to be True Progressives (TM) when they posted here are now completely in sync with RWers, post the same photos/articles that RW sites do, and post exactly the same comments that RWers post on their sites.
Given that JPR is so enamoured of conspiracy theories, I wonder if any of the participants on that site have connected the dots between what gets posted there and the striking similarity to what gets posted on RW sites.

(27,813 posts)Amazing how easily the "we're the True Progressives (TM)" crowd on JPR has been led down the RW garden path.
You have to wonder how many of them were on that path all along, and how many of them are just mindless idiots willing to be led by the nose.
Just my humble opinion, but if I'd joined an alleged "progressive" site that was constantly mimicking RW sites, I'd be more than a tad suspicious about that "coincidence".

(21,550 posts)Remember the phrase "Don't you think she looks tired?"
That's why the GOP is trying to do to Hillary.... since they have basically nothing else.
For those not familiar, I'll give you the abbreviate version. The Doctor (the hero of Doctor Who) is enraged when the Prime Minister of Great Britain orders the destruction of an alien vessel that had come to enslave Earth, but was in retreat after being defeated by The Doctor.
He tells her he can bring down her entire government with just six words. He then approaches the Prime Minister's aide ans whispers in his ear "Don't you think she looks tired?".
The next thing you know the press is all over her asking if she's sick and her whole government falls apart............
