General Wesley Clark is getting reamed all over the media for his statement on Face the Nation Sunday, questioning John W. McCain’s commander-in-chief qualifications.  Basically put, he said what I’ve been saying for a long time now:

Being a POW doesn’t necessarily make you a good president.  In fact, one might question mental fitness of someone tortured for five years in a bamboo cage.

Look, the guy graduated in the bottom 1% of his class, wrecked more than a couple planes, and is a tantrum-throwing little man pathetically trying to live up daddy’s and grandpa’s legacy… holy shit, HE IS the third Bush term!

If Obama’s campaign thought to put Clark out there to play some Rove-jitsu and turn McCain’s biggest strength into his biggest weakness, then well played, sir, well played!  I truly think that these thoughts have been rumbling in the heads of many an American, but not voiced by anyone in the timid traditional media.  The outrage is more that we questioned their narrative of their war hero, not that the statements by Clark were out of line.
