Hillary Clinton: I've Only Collapsed Mysteriously "Twice... That I Can Recall"

Oh really? You don't have the exact number of times you've frightening collapsed without given reason memorized? Twice that you can recall, but maybe you suffered some concussions and you're drawing a blank on others?

As Chris Stirewalt said on Megyn Kelly (though it's kind of obvious), "Clintonian" is in the dictionary for a reason. This formulation -- "twice...that I recall" -- permits her to minimize the number, and yet, if more episodes are disclosed, she can always say, "Well, I guess I just didn't remember those."

Cooper asked about Bill Clinton's remark in an interview with Charlie Rose that she has occasionally become dehydrated and gone through episodes like Sunday's, and how many times that has happened before.

"I think really only twice that I can recall," Clinton said.

I was knocked out by a hit one and a half times my entire life. I know the number. Once, definitely, out on the ground. Second time, fell back on head while skating, I think I was out, but very briefly, and I don't know whether to call it a knockout or a knocked-silly.

No "that I recall." One and a half is the number.

You kinda remember these things, unless the number is sufficiently large and you lose track.

Bill Clinton did in fact note Hillary has mysteriously collapsed before -- but how many times, he could not say. Guess he has to get the story straight with Hillary.

By the way, in Sexton's article above, he counts three cases of Hillary fainting myseriously. I guess Hillary doesn't count the last one because, per ace reporter who digs at the truth Glenn Kessler, she never lost consciousness when she collapsed and her head hit the ground and then she was allegedly talking to people on the phone (Seizure-Dialing, the kids call it).

Did Hillary really have a seizure because she hates drinking water?

In 2008 she claimed she was a Marco Rubio level fan of water.

She told Katie Couric she drinks "tons" of water:

I take--I take vitamins. I--I drink tea, not coffee anymore. I have really stopped drinking diet drinks. Because I found that they gave you a jolt, but they weren’t good over the long run. I used to drink a lot of them. I drink tons of water. Just as much water as I can possibly drink.

So who's lying-- Hillary's minions now, or Hillary back then?

Trick question: they're all lying, always.
