“Hillary Clinton's visit to India suffered another setback this week as the former secretary of state fractured her wrist after slipping in the bathtub at the five-star resort where she was staying, according to a report by DNA India. “The website reported that Clinton was taken to a hospital in the city of Jodphur at around 5 a.m. local time Wednesday. Clinton underwent an X-ray and a CT scan that confirmed a hairline fracture of her right wrist.”Are the viral videos Hillary-inspired conspiracies not second guessing of the masses triggered by the videos? Are the videos in India that went viral last week paving the road for a pre-determined conclusion: “She can’t stand on her feet, so how can she stand for trial?” Is Madam Clinton playing a post-election role that could be called ‘Manipulating the Masses’? In our digitalized world, people sometimes only see what progressive politicians want them to see. It’s not a far stretch to suggest that Hillary doesn’t want people to see the public rip-offs of Uranian 1 and what went down in the Clinton Foundation but Hillary’s failing health instead. Out on the 2016 presidential campaign, first came the coughing fits, then the grand finale on the anniversary of 9/11 when appearing to have publicly collapsed, and having lost a shoe, Clinton was tossed into a waiting van on Sept. 11, 2016.
"She'll be wearing these glasses instead of her contacts for a period of time because of lingering issues stemming from her concussion," said spokesman Philippe Reines. "With them on she sees just fine." “During more than five hours of testimony before Congress Clinton could be seen wearing glasses that appeared to have a thick left lens with lines across it. “Reines did not specify what type of lens the secretary was wearing, but medical experts say a fresnel prism is common in cases like these. Fresnel prisms usually come in the form of a piece of thin, transparent plastic that can be adhered to existing lenses. The special grooves in these prisms change the way light enters the eye, making them useful in treating double vision. “Dr. James Liu, director of the Center for Skull Base and Pituitary Surgery at the Neurological Institute of New Jersey, said that concussion and head injury can lead to blurred or double vision in some cases, and that this symptom can linger for a while during recovery. "It is possible that blurred or double vision can last up to weeks and even months," he said. "This really depends on the severity of the head injury. In cases of concussions, these symptoms are usually temporary and eventually resolve with time.”
The glasses did not seem to affect Clinton's demeanor during her testimony where she became emotional when talking about the deaths of Ambassador Chris Stevens and the three other Americans killed in the terror attack on the U.S. consulate in Benghazi, Libya. The secretary confidently answered questioned posed by senators and House representatives, and even sparred with some over her handling of the Benghazi crisis. “New York Magazine published an article showing a slideshow of Clinton adjusting her glasses during her testimony, with pithy comments about what her expressions meant. “Reines said that the secretary "got a kick out of the" article using her special glasses to see the slide show "crystal clear.”As for knowing enough about Yoga to finish her latest fall with the splits? ‘Hillary Clinton Says Yoga Helped Her Endure the Benghazi Hearing’, (HuffingtonPost, Oct. 23, 2015):
“You’ve got to have a lot of stamina when you're running for president and testifying before the House Select Committee on Benghazi for over 11 hours. Such is the case for 2016 Democratic presidential hopeful Hillary Clinton, who spent most of her waking hours (and ours) on Thursday testifying in a committee hearing. “As the former secretary of state was leaving, a Yahoo News reporter asked how she had the endurance for the marathon of a hearing. While flexing her muscles and grinning ever so slightly, Clinton confirmed that "yoga always helps." “Last year, Clinton told People that water aerobics and yoga were her exercises of choice. The New York Times also reported on her stamina-building practice, citing friends who said that she had more energy and was practicing yoga while spending more time on her physical fitness. “How can a person with so much on her plate have room for a couple sun salutations each week? Chances are it's the bendy practice that helps: Yoga has been shown to make people more productive, less stressed and generally happier. As the saying goes, if you don't have time to meditate for 20 minutes, you should meditate for an hour. Perhaps the same can be said for yoga.”Meanwhile, somewhere out there today is Hillary Clinton “getting a kick” out of knowing she’ll never have to face questions about Uranium 1 and the pay-for-play Clinton Foundation scandal because she’s already laid the groundwork that failing health could spare her from testimony?
