Back on the job, Clinton presented with football helmet after concussion

One month after she took ill, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton returned to her busy schedule, and will prepare to testify on the Benghazi terror attack that killed four Americans. NBC's Andrea Mitchell reports.

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton received a standing ovation on her first day back at work since she suffered a concussion and was diagnosed with a blood clot in December.

Her staff presented her with two gifts: A football helmet emblazoned with the State Department logo, paired with a football jersey with the number 112 across the back, for the number of countries the secretary has visited during her four-year tenure.

Her deputy noted that Washington is a contact sport.

A photo released by the State Department showed Clinton hoisting the helmet into the air after pulling it out of a box.

Next thing she'll lie about is that the concussion came from Slick Willy hitting her head against the headboard.

          Urban Roman - Totally sarcastic. Hillary's statement was that she was dodging bullents as they wizzed by her head..., then they cut to footage of her waving to the crowd as she exited the plane during a bright and beatiful day. Yes, sarcastic.

          Hey Hillary! Now that you're back in the game, don't you have a hearing to attend to with sub committee seeking answers to the embassy debacle? We're waiting, glad you are okay.

          A helmet for Hillary? That's not all that uncommon. Alot of other folks that are developmentally handicapped wear them. She should feel right at home.

          She hasn't had a penis (besides her own) since Vince Foster committed suicide with the wrong hand and was found bleeding uphill.

          According to several sources in foreign press, Hillary was in a plane crash. . .hmmm, she sure looks good for someone who was in a plane crash. These sources were also reporting that B.O. was preparing for her death. My 2 cents: One cannot trust the foreign press. Have a happy & healthy new year Mrs. Clinton. Time to retire and take care of your husband.

          Time to retire from politics. She is getting old (65)...now has chronic health problems that won't get any better ( too much flying) if she stays in politics. She looks exhausted. Too many years of stress (starting with dealing with her husbands embarassing indescretions and adultery) have taken its toll. She is now a physical liability and if anyone had concerns for her health they would encourage her to retire not run for President.

            Reply#71 - Mon Jan 7, 2013 5:03 PM EST

            I football helmet with the Stae department logo? Really? NO Really? What a waste of taxpayer money. I would much rather see my fiscal cliff tax increase money spent on something a bit wiser than a joke gift. It's rather irritating.

              No its not the least bit funny. I work hard for my money and I resent my tax dollars being spent in custom joke gifts. If That is a reall football helmet it cost atleast $300. If its a replica it's still $100.

                With her declining health issues, she may not be able to pass the medical exam to be president...
