Hillary Clinton In 1975: I Almost Joined The Marines Or Was It The Army?
The Nazi news media exploded Friday morning when Politico published a outstanding hit piece on Ben Carson that stated the presidential candidate had utterly lied about applying and being accepted into West Point.
The site also pushed the claim that the Carson campaign identified they had been caught in a lie and that they had slipped the story.
The post erupted almost immediately and even many conservatives were geared up and should have written off the whole campaign and announce his White House expectations as DOA.
Currently it seems that Politico posted a report and after they took another look at it, conservatives have again bounced back around Carson and turned this day into a positive one for the doctor who now appears to be on the attack against the Nazi news media.
It happens to be very obvious that the Nazi news media is going to do everything it can to watch the Carson campaign destroy itself but that begs the question why they have not gone after Hillary Clinton for some questionable words of her own relating to a fascination of military service.
From The Daily Caller:
Hillary Clinton once claimed that she tried to join the Marines in 1975, shortly before marrying her draft-dodging boyfriend, future president Bill Clinton. Or did Hillary Diane Rodham attempt to join the Army, as Clinton suggested in 2008? Or did she indeed try to sign up for the Marine Corps as part of an experiment to see how receptive the military was to female volunteers, as her friends have suggested?
Questions over whether presidential candidates have fudged their youthful interests in the military came to the forefront on Friday when Politico reported that Republican presidential candidate Ben Carson fabricated a story about being offered a scholarship to West Point. Carson’s campaign disputed the story, and Politico came under heavy scrutiny. (RELATED: Team Carson: Politico Story ‘Is An Outright Lie’)
But Clinton has a military story of her own that once came under question but has since taken a back seat to numerous other Clintonworld scandals. In June 1994, the then-first lady spoke at a luncheon for female military veterans where she told a story about her attempt to sign up for the Marines in 1975.
“You’re too old, you can’t see and you’re a woman,” Clinton recalled a young military recruiter telling her. “Maybe the dogs would take you,” he added, referring to the Army.
“It was not a very encouraging conversation,” Clinton added. “I decided maybe I’ll look for another way to serve my country.”
But many were skeptical of the claim at the time. And in more recent years – in April 2008, to be exact – Bill Clinton said that his wife had attempted to sign up for the Army, not the Marines.
“I remember when we were young, right out of law school, she went down and tried to join the Army and they said ‘Your eyes are so bad, nobody will take you,’” Clinton said at a campaign event, according to Jake Tapper, then a reporter with ABC News.
Clinton had also recently moved to Arkansas in order to be with her future husband, she told friends. The couple was married on Oct. 11, 1975.
“So, if she was talking to a Marine recruiter in 1975 before the marriage, was she briefly considering joining the few, the proud and the brave of the corps as an alternative to life with Mr. Clinton, who was already being widely touted as a sure thing for Arkansas Attorney General?” Dowd asked.
A spokesman for Clinton in 1994 told Dowd that “maybe she was thinking about the J.A.G. Corps,” a reference to Marine lawyers.
Turns out that Hillary was spinning some pretty tall tales about wanting to join the military back in the day.
If Hillary was without a doubt utilizing the military as a brace to make herself appear better, honestly, that is drastically wrong.
It is also incorrect if that is actually what Ben Carson did.
Nevertheless, it is turning out to be generously clear that Ben Carson did in fact lie about his fascination in the military to boost his own self confidence.
In Hillary’s circumstance she appears to have applied a feigned fascination in joining the military as a scheme to gain support from the common individual.
She could not even make up her mind as to which section of the military she was allegedly fascinated in joining.
The level of providing Hillary’s case to the headlines is this: the Nazi news media has respectfully sifted through Ben Carson’s past, just like any other candidate, in order to substantiate one’s character.
The solution whenever they are called out on it is, “we are just vetting him like all presidential candidates should be vetted because that’s our job.”
The difficulty with that is as a journalist you have to kinda pick and choose when to do our jobs.
The competition is fierce these days.
In the case of Barack Obama, they bombarded us with story after story about Bill Ayers, Jeremiah Wright, and the time he invested in college.
They simply could not stop reporting it. Likewise, they turn around and charge full steam ahead at Carson.
It’s a bizarre double standard.
Democratic Senator Richard Blumenthal ridiculously lied about serving in Vietnam and the storyline broke while he was running for a position in the senate.
The sheeple gave him a total pass and he won his election. Can you visualize what would have occurred to Carson if he had said he served in Vietnam but did not?
It is unsatisfactory for the sheeple to fall asleep at the wheel when it comes to checking out liberal politicians who make promises about their military involvement but also try really hard to check out and impugn Republicans at the same time.
How much do you want to wager that Hillary is not questioned about her past statements in the next debate?
You sheeple need to wake up!.
