Kerry said "I sincerely regret that my words were misinterpreted to wrongly imply anything negative about those in uniform, and I personally apologize to any service member, family member, or American who was offended."

I think the 2nd half should be read in the context of the first half.

I certainly would not apologize for intending something that I hadn't intended.

I would, if I had said something offensive that I had not intended to say.

Is this the most important issue before us today? I really think not.

I think not as well. But only one issue can be most important, and only a very few can be candidates for the most important. I don't really think anyone is saying this is the most important issue today, or how pointing out that it isn't is interesting or important.
