Clinton: Matt Drudge, Karl Rove Planting ‘False Information’
CBS News DC ^ | Friday, June 13, 2014

NPR host Terry Gross posed the question: “So I have to ask you about the kerfuffle over the People magazine cover that you were on. You were standing with your hands resting on the back of a chair, apparently a patio chair. But the photo was cropped, so all we saw of the chair was the bar across the top of the chair. And your good friend, Matt Drudge, tweeted, is Clinton holding a walker? Now, you know, obviously it wasn’t a walker but – and he didn’t lie. He didn’t say you were holding a walker. He just asked a question in the tweet. Is that a technique that you’ve become used to, like…”

Clinton responded: “They are trying constantly to, you know, raise false canards, you know, plant, you know, false information, and that’s what they do.”

“Yeah, Karl Rove tried that with my health and got totally, you know, shot down. I am so used to these people. They’re like a bunch of, you know, gamers,” said Clinton.

Clinton added that she believes Rove and Drudge pose such questions simply to avoid a “real debate” of important issues affecting the American people, saying it’s business-as-usual for conservatives to attack her on matters that are “totally off subject.”

“And it is, unfortunately, too common in today’s political environment that people want to play games that divert attention from the real issues that affect our country and its future.”........................................... Really, and who would that be? If you ask me there is a plethora of diversions going on with members of THIS administration. And if she wins we can expect even more, as she laughs all the way to the bank.

Didn't the tax payer funded DOS lose BILLIONS of dollars on her watch? Wonder how much made it to her war chest?

I don't know, but I do know this: these people are all about money. Their hypertrophied "concern for the little guy" is nothing but compensation for their own insane greed.

And I assure of this: they believe they deserve it, "because of all the good we do." If anything, they think they are "sacrificing."

Her idiotic "aide," Kiki McLean, pretty much said as much with her (now famous) "The Clintons have a life and their expectations are different" explanation of last week.

I wonder if she put her bubble gum behind her ear before the interview?

ROFLOL. People Magazine put that picture on that cover on purpose. My first thought upon seeing it is that it looks like Hillary is holding onto a walker. I had not seen that anyone else had said the same. I concluded that someone somewhere does not want Hillary anywhere near the presidency. But I guess it is no big deal if RAT fundraisers and the Clinton’s spend a lot of money trying to get her elected. She is dying to be the first female president. Bless her heart.

The Democrats are totally over the top. Their truth is stuff like “I didn’t have sex with that women”, “you can keep your doctor and healthcare”, “we’re investigating the IRS”, “Obama has made the world safer”, “the most transparent president in history”, “the economy is recovering”, “the borders have never been more secure”... I could go on all day.

Hillary Clinton is 2 years older than me. My face does not look like that. My mothers face looked like that when she was Hillary Clinton’s age. My mother was a raging alcoholic.

After a quarter of century of the constant turmoil and drama from the
grifters from Hope, the American people have had it with the House of Clinton. She’s an old hag and he’s a limp corndog.

False Information according to Clinton is the truth that doesn’t fit THEIR narrative!

H. “Benghazi” Clinton would know all about planted information, videos and such.

Good one waryone... You're right - that is her specialty.

Liberals & socialism die when they run out of money..

LBJ allowing Government to use social security funds for general budgetary spending kept the Liberal spending hopes alive

All those “you knows” shows a stunted thought pattern.

Hillary’s mind was racing to fashion a response——but she was caught flat-footed trying to defend herself from what must be an accurate appraisal of the health issue.

None of this will fly w/ the electorate.
