Another brain damaged president?

Is this wishful thinking on the part of Karl Rove, or does Hillary Clinton actually have brain damage?

He said if Clinton runs for president, voters must be told what happened when she suffered a fall in December 2012.

The official diagnosis was a blood clot. Rove told the conference near LA Thursday, “Thirty days in the hospital? And when she reappears, she’s wearing glasses that are only for people who have traumatic brain injury? We need to know what’s up with that.”

Regardless of whether Rove is stating facts or promoting a conspiracy theory, the larger issue is whether it would matter to the voters who would vote for her anyway.

We have had brain damaged presidents before. There is ample precedent for it.

And if they’re progressive, why should brain damage matter? It might even help.

    I suspect most “liberals” (using that term in the modern, bastardized sense: i.e., “tax-happy, coercion-addicted, power-lusting State-humpers”) have some form of brain damage. How else can you explain their (at best)indifference or (at worst) active antipathy to perhaps their most valuable birthright–individual liberty? I used to explain it with the Stockholm Syndrome, but maybe Occam’s Razor leads us to brain damage.
