I cant help but wonder how much it had to do with the hostage incident. You all know the ad. Its the one where she gets free health care for that boy. The first time I saw it I thought 'well, she'll be getting a ton of requests like that now'. And I read today that Eisenburg wanted Hillarys help getting psychiatric care... that he'd tried on his own and was denied treatment. I really doubt its a coincidence.

Obviously Im not blaming the people who created the ad for the incident. Im sure nobody anticipated anything like what happened. But it isnt hard to see how someone who is mentally unbalanced could be inspired to do something drastic by that ad. And I think just based on the possible connection between the two, the responsible thing to do is pull that commercial.

edit: clarity
