Why is Hillary Clinton's mispoke statement being swept under the rug?

i am currently in the Army 1 tour Iraq, 2 tours Bosnia,1 tour kosovo and her landing in Bosnia under sniper fire was so offensive to the service men and women who are put in harms way for real yet she was trying to get the sympathy of the world or atleast the United States and also attempting to act as if she has been in some tough military situation. Then when it is her own party supporter who comes out and says thats not what happened and footage is brought fourth that she, her daughter and aide were landing in a secured region of bosnia actually a marine based compound she comes up with the B.S. remark " i mispoke" how the phuck do you mis speak? please tell me. I have heard soldiers tell tales that were exagerated to bolster image and support but what she did was just purely wrong and you can believe if she gets in office( which she wont ) there will be a whole lotta mispoken words, oh and she told a story of a woman who was denied medical care and died, that was a lie too. hmmmmmm

people can think how they want but i add this , she landed at a secured compound there was no fire, she and her daughter along with the marine staff were all smiles and no amount missed sleep will make someone mispeak. and as to the idiot who wrote that my deployments dont add up? well try joining the service any of the 5 will do and serve your country better yet join the army and get sent to a rapid deployment post and see how many countries you'll see and tours you'll get in your pathetic lil life

I too was surprised it didn't garner more attention. But at the end of the day she's going to lose the nomination anyway.

Thank you for your brave service to our fine nation.

I don't think Hillary Clinton's mispoke statement is being swept under the rug. It was dumb. But in the bigger scheme you need to consider how John McCain's vow to appoint Judges (mostly ignored by the media) who will neutralize the enforcement of laws protecting citizens while protecting large corporations will make things much worse. In many ways, fake moderate hard line conservative McCain will continue to make things worse.

I believe that people serving in the military would be upset with her remarks but I seriously doubt that any politician knowingly lies on purpose because they know every time they speak their answers are going to be scrutinized. The amount of time Presidential candidates spend traveling and getting very little sleep could make them confused about the true facts.
I'm not making excuses for her, if she knowingly lied, but I will give her the benefit of the doubt.

Keep safe over there!

Dude, I feel the same way as you man, anyone that has ever been in combat or shot at never forgets that feeling of bullets flying at you from nowhere, as your taking cover. Hilary is a disgrace.

But, the Rev. Wright hurt Obama bad, having a Racist anti-American Hate Monger for 20 years is a big deal 2. Also being friends with a DOMESTIC Terrorists Didn't help Obama either.
