QuoteJune 18, 2009 Hillary Clinton Fractures Elbow in Fall By THE ASSOCIATED PRESS Filed at 12:41 a.m. ET
WASHINGTON (AP) -- Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton fractured her right elbow during a fall Wednesday, her chief of staff said.
Clinton was on her way to the White House when she fell and injured her elbow, chief of staff Cheryl Mills said in a statement released late Wednesday.
Clinton was treated at The George Washington University Hospital, just a few blocks from State Department headquarters, before going home. She will undergo surgery to repair her elbow in the coming week, Mills said.
"Secretary Clinton appreciates the professionalism and kindness she received from the medical team who treated her this evening and looks forward to resuming her full schedule soon," Mills said. Clinton had been scheduled to join actress Angelina Jolie on Thursday morning at a Washington event marking World Refugee Day. That event has been removed from Clinton's public schedule.
Well, call me a softy but I would say a fractured elbow is reason enough to cancel an appointmenrt with Lara Croft! She and her friends always seem to attract killer robots, ninjas, secret agents and other uninvited guests requiring swift, intense physical activity to get rid of.

Grow up.
Angelina Jolie is fit! I'd gladly go in Hilary's place! ;)
Hmm, this is a condundrum for our friend grabon: who will he side with??
I don't think canceling a meeting because you broke your elbow (especially as an old woman) is a snub to whomever you were going to meet with. I can continue to support both, although I'll admit that the photo-op would have been lovely. :(
edit: "A State Department official said all of Clinton's meetings had been canceled on Thursday."
I'm going to take this opportunity to go on the record and state that I've never understood Jolie-mania. She's a very attractive woman, but does nothing for me personally. :huh: Salma Hayek, for example, burns with the heat of a thousand suns in comparison.
