Original Title:Hillary, the Fighter: Hillary Clinton Fought Secret Service Agent to Fly Into Blizzard
During her campaign for president in 2008, then-Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton was involved in a profanity-laced argument with one of her Secret Service agents, according to Glenn Thrush a reporter for THE POLITICO.
Thrush witnessed Clinton being cursed at by an agent in an argument over her demand to fly the campaign plane, a Boeing 737, into a roiling Wisconsin blizzard.
I remember watching a usually stoic Secret Service agent cursing Clinton on the tarmac in Milwaukee when she ordered the campaigns rattletrap 737 to fly up into a blizzard, knowing wed have to turn back, just so she could say shed attempted to fly to a rally in Madison.
The gesture was meaningless. She lost Wisconsin by 17 points a few days later.
It is unknown why this event was not reported at the time.
However, it is now known that for purely political appearances, Clinton, campaigning to be the Commander-in-Chief of the United States Armed Forces, wanted to lead her campaign jet, packed with the souls of numerous press, campaign staff, and federal agents, into unsafe flying conditions

What difference does it make? ;)
“It is unknown why this event was not reported at the time.”
If the “Washington Free Beacon Staff” doesn’t know the
answer to that then they must not be to bright.

Did you mean FATUSS? LOL!
I seem to recall, when she was "running" for her Senate seat, she and her caravan nearly ran over a local cop in upstate New York. His life was spared by a fellow officer who pulled him out of the way as Hillary! sped by.

BTW:Thanks for the distinction, though. I am most appreciative.
“wanted to lead her campaign jet, packed with the souls of numerous press, campaign staff, and federal agents, into unsafe flying conditions...”
I would be a lot less conflicted if it was not for the federal agents and crew. They might actually be worthy of the oxygen they breath each day, as opposed to the rest. And it would be a shame to destroy a perfectly good 737.
I was told a story a few years back about her commute to the Senate everyday. I am sure you are aware they have a special lane for all of the important people that allows them to speed past the little people on their way to the House and Senate. This lane closes down late morning and is given back to the little people. The Senator was famous for sleeping in and leaving late,she would scream at the driver and demand he speed and would scream loudly at the little people for being IN HER LANE.
Two days after this attack, said Rep. Adam Kinzinger, we were in a briefing with Hillary Clinton and she screamed at a member of Congress whod dare suggest that this was a terrorist attack.

An acquaintance of mine actually was assigned to the 2008 Hillary campaign detail. He was rather tight-lipped regarding the assignment... most of his “commentary” on the subject of Hillary was through eyerolling, ordering another drink at the bar, smirks, and other non-verbal cues.
None-the-less, he still has a job working for the Secret Service.
You hit the nail on the head.
They're now like the old joke about accountants that says the best accountant is the one who when asked how something will effect the company books asks, "how do you want it to effect the books".
