Hillary Puts to Rest The Health Rumors

Hillary Returns to the Campaign Trail

Middle Finger News Wire - Hillary Clinton has staved off countless rumors about her health in the past month, and the bout of pneumonia that forced her to leave a 9/11 memorial event this weekend only compounded people’s concerns. The Democratic candidate had no choice but to address the matter, and she just did it in a big way: 

At a campaign event this morning,  speaking in front of thousands tens of assembled members of the press and supporters, Clinton unquestionably debunked comments about the fragility of her health by assuring her audience she was on strong prescribed medications for her temporary condition, and then proceeded to tear open her thigh and wrench out her femur. Immediately after freeing it from her leg, Clinton began to aggressively smash the femur against the speaker’s podium to demonstrate its vitality.  

Okay, so this is pretty much a masters course on how to take control of a story!  Clinton went on to say as she proudly held her leg bone high above her head:

"I welcome any man or woman who believes they possess the strength to shatter this femur to join me here on stage and try, though they will most certainly fail. 

Let it be known that my femur is more robust than a thousand oxen and as unbreakable as my determination to lead this nation as its first female president." 

Only a politician like her could take a potentially detrimental controversy and turn it into an opportunity to show exactly how ready she is for the Oval Office.

Could It Be Joe's Time For Shot At The Title?

ABC News contributor Cookie Roberts said Tuesday that Democrats are "nervously beginning to whisper" about  Hillary Clinton and what might happen if their nominee for president has to be replaced.  With Grandma Clinton seemingly with one foot in the grave and obviously can't keep from lying about everything, and Bernie Sanders kicked back and making out like a good socialist Bandit with a ton of money in the lock box and a new vacay house (compliments of your 20 buck contributions kids), one of the most viable candidates to carry on the destruction of America should Grandma seize-up or check out would be none other then Crazy Uncle Joe. 

"People are angry at the lack of transparency -- it was hours before the diagnosis of pneumonia was revealed -- after seeing this incredibly damaging video of her being helped and stumbling into this van. 

Look: There's a reason why the campaign is not transparent. Obviously it gives Trump ammunition, and he has been setting this up for months. Back in January he said that she didn't have the strength and stamina to be president. And then he knew at some point in the campaign schedule, she, like all candidates would get exhausted. But the fact that it comes now, when the polls are tightening and Democrats were already saying that Hillary was the only candidate who could not beat Trump, and it’s taking her off of the campaign trail,cancelling her trip to California today. It has them very nervously beginning to whisper about her stepping aside and finding another candidate...

Ironically the candidate everyone looks at is Joe Biden, who is even older than Hillary, and then again, so is Donald Trump....." 

Of course, this could all be for naught, as those great investigative reporters and scholars of the political scene at over at The Free Republic remind us, Hillary has a Body Double who was obviously the one that emerged from Chelsea Medvinsky's Apartment Monday.  

Among the reporters making the claim on the Twitter that secret, high-level meetings are taking place among Democrats to consider a possible replacement are David Shuster, an Emmy-award winning journalist based in New York City who formerly worked for MSNBC.

And just to show Joe Biden is healthy and ready to put on the gloves, he has even challenged Donald Trump to go jogging with him.   And just think about it....what would be more entertaining then a Joe Biden-Donald Trump Debate?

It's All Good!

Media Goes To Temporary "Cover Our Ass Mode"

THE REAL DEPLORABLES

Four black men who never served a day in the military, used the stardom that comes with being NFL football players to disrespect the American Flag — and the men and women who have died defending it — prior to their football game on Sunday.

Four spoiled, self-absorbed black athletes who play for the Miami Dolphins didn’t care about supporting the pre-game ceremonies designed to pay respect to the 15th anniversary of 9/11. They cared more about shining the light on themselves and a racist group called Black Lives Matter.

Four overpaid, overrated black Miami Dolphins made complete asses of themselves by kneeling during the National Anthem on the most painful day in America. No matter how big the shoulder pads make them appear, as far as I am concerned Arian Foster, Michael Thomas, Kenny Stills and Jelani Jenkins are pathetic little black men who are no different than the Islamic haters who burn the American Flag.

If these 4 punks were “real” black men — if they were “real” black tough guys — they’d spend their time during the off-season working with the young black boys who join gangs and kill each other every night. Instead of kneeling down, they’d step up and do something about helping young black men to escape the drugs that riddle black communities. They’d donate their time to help educate young black men about the pitfalls of impregnating young black girls out of wedlock.

Here’s what these four black fools don’t understand: by kneeling they shined a spotlight on themselves in a way that forces me to write “black” at the start of every sentence. Yesterday, had I written about these 4 guys for whatever reason, I would have referred to them as “four football players.” But today they went to extremes to make it so America recognizes them as “four black men.” - Dennis Michael Lynch

Cocks vs Tigers

Last week the Tigers traveled to Lambeau Field and suffered their first Opening Day loss in twelve years, as well ended their record streak of non-conference wins at 53. The offense came out stagnate and ineffective against a good Wisconsin Badger team. The bright spot was #7 crossed the 3,000 yd. career mark with a respectable 138 yds @ 6 yds per carry against a good Badger defense. The Tiger Defense played very well, stifling the Badgers at times, forcing three turnovers accounting for 14 points. They played soft, taking away the long pass and holding their 3 running backs to just 134 yds.  7 of the 12 Badger possessions started at their own 40 yd line or better, only to reach the endzone once. The Tiger defense did their job. This was a winnable game. The Tigers beat themselves.

This evening as the sun sets on the horizon of a flood ravaged Baton Rouge, Tiger stadium will be bathed in bright light and Purple and Gold as Mike and the Tigers welcome the Jacksonville St. Gamecocks to the electric confines of Death Valley. The Tigers have an amazing record of winning home openers. They look to continue that long tradition.  

Jacksonville State went 13-2 last year and played in the FCS National Championship game. They have a seasoned QB who can light you up. This should be another good test of a Tiger defense that is expected to continue to improve as weeks go on. And this is the last opportunity for LSU to get the kinks out of the offense before Conference play starts next week. Let him throw, Les. Let him throw!

✔ Reluctantly, I say Tigers by 10

Elsewhere in the SEC:

✔ Western Kentucky vs #1 Alabama- 3:30pm

Alabama blew the doors off USC last week, and the Tide appeared to roll as they did last year. The WK Hilltoppers visit Tuscaloosa Saturday and we will have the answer to the Question: Is the Tide as good as they appear again this year?

I say the Tide by 20

✔ Arkansas vs #15 TCU- 7:00pm

This is a game that may come down to defense. TCU can put up points, but give up a lot. BUT, I say the Hogs surprise Frogs early and hold on for a slim win.  

UPSET- I say Hogs by 3

✔ Virgina tech vs #17 Tenneessee - 8:00pm

I'm still not convinced the Vols are all that. I picked Georgia as SEC East Champs. And like LSU, the Vols still have alot to prove. But if Butch Jones took my advice and drank heavily this week, just maybe the Vols have improved enough to contend. 

I say Tennessee by 7
