If you are following breaking news, Hillary Clinton abruptly left the 9-11 memorial today because she was reportedly “overheated.” Her campaign says she is fine now.

You probably wonder if the “overheated” explanation is true – and a non-issue as reported – or an indication of a larger medical condition. I’m blogging to tell you it doesn’t matter. The result is the same.

Here’s why.

If humans were rational creatures, the time and place of Clinton’s “overheating” wouldn’t matter at all. But when it comes to American psychology, there is no more powerful symbol of terrorism and fear than 9-11 . When a would-be Commander-in-Chief withers – literally – in front of our most emotional reminder of an attack on the homeland, we feel unsafe. And safety is our first priority.

Hillary Clinton just became unelectable.

Pretending to be a neutral, sober analyst is the first funny thing Scott Adams has ever done.

2   Ceffer   2016 Sep 11, 1:29pm  

I prefer reeling, intoxicated, subjective analysis.

3   HydroCabron   2016 Sep 11, 1:37pm  

No person with a medical condition - like, say, polio - could possibly defeat enemies like Hitler and Imperial Japan.

Right, having a physical impairment is the same as hiding a neurological disorder that effects judgement and temperment.

They're scared shitless of the health claims. A one page statement from her personal physician a year-and-a-half ago is now inadequate.

Chronically sick fucks like FDR are a red flag. He created the great depression and had his hand in creating WW 2 according to Herbert Hoover's memoirs.

Bullshit Cabron, the point is that this is a red flag that is common with these type people, i.e. sociopaths, think FDR, LBJ, Nixon, Dick Cheney.

I can now point out that one person can create a disaster.

G.W.Bush is responsible for 9/11 injuries & death & the slaughter of ~ 4500 servicemen in the LIE of WMD.
This kind of pretzel logic makes one look stupid.
Bush alone is not responsible. It's all the Rep/Cons in the administration & fucking useless Republicans voters.

Wonder if the fucking useless Democratic voters that might elect Hillary,will take credit for what she screws up?

I might need psychiatric help. Everyone,but me, knows that voters aren't responsible after an election.

Just realized that "Herbert Hoover's memoirs" are the final source of all knowledge.

20   indigenous   2016 Sep 11, 5:44pm  

Apparently I have to remind you that every war in the last 100 years, save one, was started by a democrat!

And the democrats in congress and the senate who did not oppose Bush, and the democrat voters who keep voting for them ("the lesser evil"), and the accomplice media, and all the flag waving idiots who don't realize that they live in oligarchy.

There's a difference between someone's neurological disorder and someone's physical abilities.

Trump up to 29% on the betting odds. He was as low as 18 just a few weeks ago.

Still a dog, but less so as we get closer to the debates.

Hillary will next appear in a wheelchair, with a plaid blanket covering her limp legs, which will bare metal bracing, and blame her condition on laryngitis.

To be fair Trump's bad judgement and temperament is mainly a social media meme of people who don't know him the least bit. You'd think that a person that has been in the media and tabloids for so many years would have revealed any severe deficiencies, yet there is as much praise for him (if not more) than negative press and hardly anything tangible against him. Furthermore presidents used to be deemed fit when they actually were decisive and strong, as compared to those who cannot take a risk or criticism. It's only recently that with the advent of political correctness and SJW's that no politician can say anything honest or direct anymore without consulting their PR agents and watering down any words of substance to the standard, almost lawyer-like rhetoric that must not offend anybody. And I think the people have begun to see this, not only in the US but also in Europe (or even Russia, the Philippines etc.) as you can see by the huge wins of parties that speak their mind and those of their people rather than engaging in standard politician doublespeak gobbledigook that everybody has gotten tired to listen to. Whether you may call it the renaissance of honesty or the the return of the simpletons doesn't matter, the effect is real and growing.

The use of the term was entirely accurate, if not a bit bombastic.

Color me shocked that a 13th grade teacher couldn't figure that out. Least of all one that's spouting out about everyone else being a dumbass.

He has revealed severe deficiencies many times. It's been reported many, many times. Trumpbots somehow can't see any of it.

Yup, I think trump will win with Hilalry. With bernie-I think Bernie has a very, very good chance. he excites his base. If only he was not a socialist, i would consider him. I am more for trump, because at some point Immigration has to stop until Americans can get back on their feet. Even liberal icon FDR knew this and immigration stopped to a crawl. Today's dumb lefties are like 2nd or 3rd generation wealthy heirs. They never worked hard for the fortune/lifestyle, everything has been handed tot hem and so they sit atop their pedestals wanting to do some good for everyone-thinking the well will never dry out.
I think they are the racists/bigots-because they are coming from the belief that they are oh so superior and nothing can go wrong. Trump/rightists/disaffected know there is no difference between a mexican , an Indian or a Chinese and an American-they are just competition for limited jobs/resources. It is like attending a job interview against 50 people-do what you have to -to get it. We are going downwards-highest debt in the world, a barely crawling economy, millions of jobs being offshored or filled out by foreign labor-at some point somebody has to put a stop to it or we sink to the lowest common denominator. The day we default on our debt and can't pay welfare-will be the day the left wakes up. Nothing can go on for ever-either we stop and change or go down.

38   FNWGMOBDVZXDNW   2016 Sep 12, 7:01am  

At least he admits in his analysis that there is no rational reason for his predicted shift, and that any shift toward Trump to get him elected would be based on feelings. That dovetails nicely with the personalities who support Trump on this board. Incidentally, Scott Adams claims that it is irrational to be rational, because it doesn't lead to happiness. He's an interesting fella.

Adams is a guy who's spent his life and earned his fortune making people feel better about not being an engineer or a manager*, his support of Trump and Trumpkins is predictable.

*His marginally funny cartoons also make some engineers feel a little less responsibility for any stupid shit that happens at the office, so it's an equal opportunity 'what me worry' guilt reducer.

Yup. You won't see Hillary backers on the fence, or not voting for Bernie. I am pro-Bernie, but won't be voting for Hillary. Hopefully no one will be shortly.

The race is not over until STUPID REPUBLICANS & DEMOCRATS cast their votes.
