Intervention time!
We Need to Talk About Hillary Clinton | The American Spectator
In a similar vein, she
told about how she challenged John McCain to a drinking contest while the two were on a congressional tour of Estonia, and beat him after downing four shots of vodka. “She’s a girl from Illinois who likes to throw ’em down with the rest of us,” said her campaign manager.
Senator McCain admitted to having a couple of drinks, but denied there’d been a contest. Yet so fond was Hillary of this tale, she repeated it on a clip which she
posted on her Facebook page. Look at the woman in this video, people. Doesn’t quite look like she could walk a straight line, does she?
Hillary Clinton continued to drink her way through the 2008 primary season. There was an excruciatingly embarrassing
scene at Bronko’s Restaurant and Lounge in Indiana one Saturday night. Mingling with the patrons, she was “cajoled” into downing a shot of Crown Royal whisky. “She sipped at first, but later threw her head back and swallowed it down.” One drink led to another and soon Hillary was under the influence, if not the table. She called for the Mayor of Hammond. “Tom, Tom, come sit down.” But the Mayor was somewhere else. “My campaign drives people to drink,” she said truthfully.
In vino veritas. “Every time I get around you we always start drinking,” said the Mayor when he finally showed up. Poor man. We understand how this could happen.
Hillary lost to Barack Obama who made her Secretary of State, and soon thereafter, in June 2009, we
received news of her first reported “accident.”
Walking from the State Department to the White House, Hillary fell down and broke her elbow. On a perfectly flat surface it would seem, as no impediments were reported. She required surgery and Madam Secretary was out of commission for a while, though we’re told that she continued to work at home.
The media will go to great lengths to protect Hillary Clinton, but what can you do when a whole passel of people are at the scene, filming, Hillary as
she climbs the stairs to her private plane. Slowly and carefully, with the tedious caution of the seriously inebriated.
Having made it to the top of the stairs, she turns to wave at her public, then turns back and falls flat on her face. We watch as the stewards try to help her up. It’s not easy, and this excruciating scene mercifully ends when someone has the wits to turn off the plane’s interior lights.
That was January 2011, and by the following year, April 14-15, 2012, Hillary’s drinking had gotten seriously out of control, culminating in the Cartagena debacle. On a Summit of the Americas trip to Colombia, Madam Secretary and her entourage were filmed swilling beer and wine in the Café Havana. Hillary is chug-a-lugging from the bottle as she “dances,” wildly waving her arms in the air.
“SWILLARY. Hill knocks back brew and scandal rocks summit,”
screamed the front page of the
New York Post.

London Telegraph blog post
asked whether she was “becoming an embarrassment.”
