So how does CNN characterize this tête-à-tête? That Wesley Clark was SWIFTBOATING John McCain!

Rick Sanchez’s lead-in to his next segment just now on CNN:

“Wesley Clark tried to Swiftboat John McCain today.”

I’m liveblogging. He goes on to say:

“It will reverberate for weeks. Wes Clark tried to diss McCain’s military record, that his service doesn’t qualify him to be president.”

Rick Sanchez is mad.

No, not mad…just a huge partisan hack. Now that “swift-boating” has entered the vernacular, let us remember that the original SwiftBoat Veterans for “Truth” were for the most part neither in their hope to take down Kerry’s candidacy. Has Wesley Clark in some way made any untrue allegations in saying that being a POW and a non-combat era fighter pilot does not necessarily qualify you for the highest elected office in the land?

Wow! That is bizarre.

Clark is telling it like it is, thats all.

And of course Obama can't let Clark tell the truth...It ain't politically expedient...Aaaargh.
