WESLEY CLARK, OBAMA'S WEASEL

By now just about everyone has heard or at least caught comments about the ridiculous comments made by former General Wesley Clark belittling John McCain's war record especially his duties as a fighter pilot during the Vietnam War.

First let me state that this Weasel, Wesley Clark has been using this type of attack ever since he stepped onto the political scene during the 2004 Presidential election. Adding to this the fact that Clark a former military commander using a blatant attack against an opposing political candidate belittling a well documented and heroic war record places this Weasel among the lowest of the low.

John McCain's war record and his plight as a POW are beyond reproach and for Clark to belittle and state that McCain's, "riding as a fighter pilot and getting shot down, " is not, " a qualification to be President," is even beneath the low antics of Wesley Clark the Weasel.

This is also the same Wesley Clark who in 2004 after dropping out of the Presidential race against John Kerry for the Democrat nomination praised the military service of Kerry and touting that Kerry's service qualified him to be Commander in Chief.

Kerry's military career compared to that of John McCain's and the command responsibilities of both are nearly as different as night and day. McCain commanded the largest squadron in The United States Navy prior to his being shot down and captured. Kerry commanded a Swift Boat for a short time and that command has been a source of major questions concerning his military service.

McCain's service is unquestionable and beyond reproach, yet Clark sees fit to belittle a heroes service, attack a fellow soldier and claim that his service does not qualify him for the Presidency. Yet Clark praised Kerry's service as a qualification for the Presidency in 2004 and in 2008 deems McCain as unqualified because of his military service. Not only a ridiculous statement but and outright fabrication of the truth and an insult to the heroic service of a stall worth commander like John McCain.

Clark was also using this insult to try and portray that McCain's military service does not qualify him to be President anymore than Barack Obama's lack of service. I beg to differ in this assumption by Clark especially since Clark not only touted Kerry's service as a qualification but his own when he was running for President.

While military service may not be a necessary component to the qualifications of the Presidency it is certainly a greater assistance in the understanding of a President's duty as Commander in Chief especially in the complicated makeup of today's military and in a time of war.

Clark went on further in a follow - up MSNBC interview to stand by his comments while stumbling over his own comments to try and make it appear that he honors McCain rather than insulting him as he did.

To belittle the service and sacrifice of a military hero like John McCain in order to attempt to build up the inexperience of Barack Obama by making McCain's experience seem insignificant to the Presidency is a blatant political hack job that is not only worthy of most harsh condemnation from both Obama and the DNC in general but also questions the intelligence of Wesley Clark.
