Drudge Suggests Hillary Is 'Holding A Walker' On People Magazine Cover

CATHERINE THOMPSON – JUNE 4, 2014, 12:51 PM EDT

The Drudge Report tried to stir up more wild speculation about Hillary Clinton's health on Wednesday by suggesting the former secretary of state was pictured pushing a walker in her People Magazine appearance.

The conservative news site tweeted a link to Clinton's forthcoming People cover, in which she is standing in front of a pool and holding onto what appears to be a patio chair:

DRUDGE REPORT @DRUDGE_REPORT

PHOTO: IS CLINTON HOLDING A WALKER? http://drudge.tw/1oaGcpY

12:16 PM - 4 Jun 2014


Dennis Brack, the former White House photographer who snapped Clinton's photo, wanted to capture her leaning forward in a "more active type of pose" and said "a chair was handy," according to the Wall Street Journal. The Journal also confirmed with People's editorial director that Clinton was indeed photographed next to a patio chair.

The Drudge Report has recently run similar items suggesting that Clinton is aging, including photoshopping the former secretary of state's head onto an oil painting of a wrinkly woman.

I may be old and half-blind some days, but even I can tell the difference between a walker and the back of a chair.


Desperation really does make some people stupid, doesn't it?

I've never been a mother, but that looks more like a stroller handle than a walker handle.

Drudge just throws spaghetti against the wall to see what sticks. And when I say spaghetti in conjunction with Drudge, I mean shit.

Maybe he should give up his lucrative career in lying and go find out a few things.

Nah, not the Republican way. Ignorance is their greatest virtue, followed quickly by greed.

(BTW, that looks like painted wrought iron patio furniture to me)
