It ain't "sniffles" & not recent.It's like horse snorting & we've said it here months ago. &Gov.DEAN

has a believable take on it (coke). The Faux wire story frames Howard DEAN's comment as being cruel on the grounds that DRUMPF's supposed teetotaling supposedly derives from his brother's death from alcoholism or whatever, and calls it "sniffles" and "respiratory problem", no.

Is it believable that DRUMPF was "befriended" by Roy COHN, a debauched libertine, and conga-lined his way through the Studio 54 scene -- all while maintaining a monkish superhuman abstinence?!1 What would his fellow partiers want with a token monk around?

But the ultimate unbelievable thing is that DRUMPF is capable of a commitment to any single principle or morality.

The fake letters and Wizard of Oz show attempts only raise suspicions.

9. I was at a watch party and everyone was howling

by his third sniffle and immediately started speculating about his coke habit.

Then several got on their phones to see if the internuts were going crazy. It was.

7. where are the pundits who should be

talking about what people are saying? That he might have been doing coke? That he might have a cold, or a terrible disease?

8. MAYBE it was a cold

But Howard is an MD. You'd think he'd notice the difference.
