Clark Tells Truth

.
Retired General Wesley Clark spoke truth Sunday on Face the Nation, but the Vapid Vapors Media are in full handwringing mode, doubtless much to the delight of the McCain campaign. Their minions in the media are performing right on cue.

Well, here's my word on Wesley. You go, General. Keep on a-talkin'. No, being shot down and held as a prisoner of war does not qualify one to be president.

Arguably years of service in the Senate on military-related committees would be a notch of qualification, but let's face facts. The McCain campaign isn't talkin' about that, isn't tear-jerkin' about that in their teevee advertising. [Sorry, Bob Shieffer, Andrea Mitchell, Jake Tapper, Rick Sanchez...I know, facts are such troubling things when you've got a good spin cycle going.]

They're showing McCain, the p.o.w.

And that seems to be pretty much the sum total of what they're sellin'.

Nobody dishonors McCain's service except those who are exploiting it now to try to insure the Third Term of Bush. That's dishonor.
