Gen. Clark was absolutely right in his praise and valid criticism of Sen. McCain.

Bob Schieffer has an opportunity here to show himself to be a responsible journalist by putting the comments back in their proper context, i.e. when he makes his closing comments on Face the Nation. But I'm not holding my breath on that one!

Brandon, can you get the vets in your "Veterans Respond to General Clark's Comments" on video? YouTube would be a great vehicle for this.

Thanks for the posts.


for the last four years, so I am not acclimatized to the US media anymore. WTF happened to my country?????

No one has bothered to look at McCains voting record on vet issues for the last twenty years. He's voted no on practically every piece of legislation benefiting the VA. If he used his "military/vet/pow" creds to boost the VA, then I and many of my younger brothers and sisters from Iraq and Afghanistan would probably not have the serious problems they have getting their benefits.

*[new] John Roberts, American Morning, CNN does a decent (4.00 / 2)
interview-discussion of the 'fragging' [that's for you Jim] of Clark this morn.
Not a full-blown apology, but better than naught. CNN must be getting some pressure.

I know that I e-mailed them.

In the very fine print on the right is 'contact us', follow the link to 'report errors seen on CNN' . You can also get to Headline news [Glenn Beck] to report errors.
on the far left is a transcript link. American Morning will be up later today.

The manufacturing of news content on parade.. It's why I get my news on the internet.

My BIL is a retired Marine, 22 years of service. He agrees completely with Clark. My husband is ex-Navy (5 years) and also agrees.
