Republican strategist Karl Rove and former Obama aide Robert Gibbs were guest speakers at a high priced private conference in Los Angeles on Thursday. According to the New York Post's Emily Smith, Karl Rove said Hillary Clinton's health problems in 2012 might have bearing on a future presidential run by the former first lady.
"Thirty days in the hospital? And when she reappears, she's wearing glasses that are only for people who have traumatic brain injury? We need to know what's up with that." Rove told the audience.
No recording of the conference has surfaced, and in an interview on Fox News, Rove denied he ever said Clinton has "brain damage" as the New York Post's lede indicated.
Nevertheless, Rove's alleged comments have returned the issue of Hillary Clinton's health to front page news, so here's a recap of the event in question.
In December 2012 Hillary Clinton became dehydrated while suffering from a stomach flu and fainted. She fell and sustained a concussion. At first, some claimed she was faking illness to avoid testifying on the attack on the American embassy in Benghazi. But when it was revealed that Clinton stayed in hospital for three days while doctors removed a blood clot from a vein in her brain, that conspiracy theory mostly disappeared.
Clinton suffered from residual double vision for a short time after the fall, requiring her to wear a corrective lens. A temporary plastic adhesive Fresnel prism was stuck to Clinton's glasses, correcting her double vision. She was wearing the corrective lens when she eventually gave testimony on Benghazi before Congress.
Clinton's staff has responded to Rove's assertions by saying that her health is quote, "100 percent."
