Most folks don't know that about 90% of sufferers end up with a form of dementia. It's different from Alzheimer's in that they are seriously delusional. Hyper sexuality becomes a problem. Poor decision making and willing to take dangerous risks is also prevalent.
One of the big difference is all of this is more gradual than Alzheimer's. Thinking back, my wife believes her husband began showing some of these signs even before he was diagnosed.
So, if Hillary wins and it IS Parkinson's we'd better hope she's had it for a while so she isn't making too many decisions before the doctors says enough. And if you think they can hide it you are wrong. This is a dreadful disease and being under daily public scrutiny it will become obvious at some point that something is seriously wrong.
I will say that the debates are going to be interesting. The stress may exacerbate the condition and the whole construct could come tumbling down.
But Wichita is correct, Dems will vote for her even if she's dead. Hell it would only strengthen their hold on the Dead vote.
I don't like Hillary and I don't want her as the next President. But if it is Parkinson's, that's a hell of a thing for anyone to has to go through. I wouldn't wish it on anyone.
LOL. It a video clip designed to lead you to believe something. I just caught trump telling us the election is rigged if he doesn't win in PA. I say some should look at trump also. No editing of his video clips are needed to see that he is delusional.
Reports (not for sure if they are true or not) are saying that she has Parkinson's disease.
It wouldn't really matter. She could be dead, and Democrats will still vote for her.
Boudreaux from Thibodeaux
The Louisiana State Police had received numerous reports of illegal rooster fighting being held in the area around Abbeville and had sent their famous Detective Boudreaux from Thibodeaux to investigate. Boudreaux promptly began his investigation and then reported to his Commander the next morning.
"Dey is tree main groups involve in dis rooster Fightin", he began.
"Good work! Who are they?" the Commander asked.
Boudreaux replied confidently, "De Texas Aggies, de local Cajuns, and de Demcratic Natnal Char from N'awlins".
Puzzled, the Commander asked, "Now Boudreaux, how did you find all that out in one night?"
"Well," he replied, "I went down and done seen dat rooster fight in person. And I knowed immediately dat dem Aggies was involved when a Duck was entered in the fight."
The Commander nodded, "I'll buy that. But what about the others?"
Boudreaux nodded knowingly, "Well, I knowed de Cajuns was involved when sumbody bet on de duck!"
"Ah, I see, I see ... " sighed the sergeant, "And how did you figure the DNC was involved?"
"De duck won!"

Isn't it strange that after a bombing, everyone blames the bomber, his upbringing, his environment, his culture, his mental state but … after a shooting, the problem is the gun?

If, you wish to piss off a Conservative, lie to him. If, you wish to piss off a Socialist, Liberal or Progressive, tell them the truth.

Hell at least dead she couldn't make as many FUs as Obama, she would be a better president dead than alive anyway is what I am trying to say. Come to think of it, so would Trump make a better president dead than alive.
One of my best friends had Parkinson's. A heck of a horseman, but got to where he couldn't function--was incontinent, and then ended up burning himself to death last year while trying to cook. Spilled a skillet of hot bacon grease on the stove top and burned himself and half the house own.
I read just today, there may be a light at the end of the tunnel for Alzheimer. A common drug already used for inflammation/pan relief in women's menstruation period was shown to reverse memory loss and other Alziemer effects in rats. Might get fast tracked, since there is currently no known cure or even real treatment for this particular dementia.

The incurable Alzheimer’s disease may now have a cure. A new research by the University of Manchester shows that the most common form of dementia can be fully cured with an anti-inflammatory drug, commonly used for period pain.
Almost 7.5 million new cases of Alzheimer’s — a disease that causes acute problems with memory, thinking ability and behavior — diagnosed around the world every year. In the United States, about five million people currently suffer from the degenerative disease that has claimed one in three senior citizens with some form of dementia.
The team, led by Dr. David Brough, worked with mice to find that a common Non-Steroidal Anti Inflammatory Drug (NSAID) routinely used to relieve menstrual pain — mefenamic acid — completely reversed the inflammation of the brain and lost memory in the specimen.
Mefenamic acid is available as a generic drug and is sold under a variety of brand names.
For the study, 20 mice were genetically altered to exhibit symptoms of Alzheimer’s. Ten of these were treated with mefenamic acid by using a mini-pump under their skin for one month, while the other 10 mice were treated in the same way with a placebo.
Researchers found that the mice treated with mefenamic acid saw a complete reversal of memory loss, while the placebo group’s condition remained unchanged

They've been curing MS in rats for over a decade. Lucky rats, now they free of MS AND Alzheimer's.
Thanks for posting that info. I read about it a while ago, but I forgot I read it....................Uh, oh.
FWIW, my wife's husband was a US Navy captain. He commanded a flotilla of mine sweepers, which if you know anything about that subject, may have also been an example of excessive risk taking.

Dems are determined to get Hillary in no matter what. Some of her latest emails that were released via an informant from Wikileaks got him a quick reaction. Seth Rich was shot dead, in the back walking along a DC street. It was the middle of the day and not a robbery since he had his wallet, phone and expensive watch still on him. No suspects.
In all seriousness, I thought it was supposedly for health reasons she did not stay on as Secretary of State for Obama's second term? At the time, the media made it sound as if she almost died. At least that is the story we were told, so who knows.
Seems everyone ELSE understands I was talking about the fact that Mr. Kaine wears his Catholicism publicly and proudly yet supports the Democrat platform which defends abortion.

Yup, and you can't vote for Trump or Hillary... what will you do? I guess you are staying home.
Not voting or voting for a third party candidate means Hillary wins for she has all those illegals, unregistered and dead voting for her. That is why Bill Clinton got elected as Ross Perot receive 19% of the votes and GHW Bush lost.

illegals? unregistered? Dead? Yeah.. ok
So... if everyone who didn't like either candidate voted third party... well, third party could win. The problem is that people only think we have two parties to select from.

The Libertarian Party is the result of a political identity crisis. An idea that we can have it both ways. It's like watching a republican or a democrat trying hide their affinity for either party. You can put a seam down the middle of a dress and call it a pant suit if you wish, it's still a dress. Likewise, putting big ears and a trunk on an ass doesn't give you the political middle ground. Instead it gives you a minority party that appeals to voters from the 2 major parties but attracts none.

Yes and no... people are told they are throwing away their vote if they support a third party... those who say this are usually supporting a D or an R.

Absolutely but right now a 3rd party has no chance at winning without the virtual demise of a major party. Until then they can only borrow votes from other parties.

If everyone who didn't vote in the last election voted 3rd party, it would win without taking away any votes that would have gone to either D or R.
Until the Pope changes his opinion on abortion, these people are no more Catholic than ISIS is Muslim. While I don't equate the two groups, the simple reality is we're told the views of ISIS are not compatible with the teachings of Islam. Likewise, the views of members of the Catholic church who are pro-choice are not compatible with the teachings of the Catholic Church.
I recognize they are pushing for change and they speak for the direction they want the church to go, but they do not speak for the church.

While I agree... it is sad that some of our radial members of this forum can't use the same logic when it comes to Muslims... "they are all part of ISIS and out to kill you".
Frankly, if you believe in God, then your religious beliefs are between you and God. Structured religion (in general) is just used to control people and power as one just has to look at history.
