A little balance, please
[Read the article: It's 3 a.m. Who do you want answering the phone?]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There is a very big assumption in this article, along with a slant, and that is that Obama will be the nominee. Clinton is dismissed by one political scientist as not having "really a good presidential temperament." References are made to three retired military commanders who support Obama, and Clinton's military support is limited to "the retired general supporting Clinton."
Well, sir, she has considerably more support than that from men who know a tad bit about the military and "presidential temperaments." Consider the following:
Flag Officers Endorsing Hillary Clinton for President and Commander-in-Chief:
General Wesley Clark
General John M. Shalikashvili
General Johnnie E. Wilson
Admiral William Owens
Lt. Gen. Joe Ballard
Lt. Gen. Robert Gard
Lt. Gen. Claudia J. Kennedy
Lt. Gen. Donald L. Kerrick
Lt. Gen. Frederick E. Vollrath
Vice Admiral Joseph A. Sestak
Major General Roger R. Blunt
Major General George A. Buskirk, Jr.
Major General Edward L. Correa, Jr.
Major General Paul D. Eaton
Major General Paul D. Monroe, Jr.
Major General Antonio M. Taguba
Rear Admiral Connie Mariano
Rear Admiral Alan M. Steinman
Rear Admiral David Stone
Brigadier General Michael Dunn
Brigadier General Belisario Flores
Brigadier General Evelyn "Pat" Foote
Brigadier General Keith H. Kerr
Brigadier General Virgil A. Richard
Brigadier General Preston Taylor
Brigadier General John M. Watkins, Jr.
Brigadier General Jack Yeager
Lt. General Joe Ballard
Rear Admiral David Stone
Brigadier General John M. Watkins, Jr.

General Clark -- get thee under the bus!
[Read the article: Media mischaracterizes Clark comments, Obama backs away]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]By the time we get to November, the highway is going to be littered by those Candidate Obama has thrown under the bus. It is unfortunate that we have developed a party that is craven and spineless.

Fair and Square -- Phooey!
[Read the article: Crying Wolfson]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]There was nothing, repeat: NOTHING, fair and square about the shameful cheating at every level -- local, state and national that took place this primary season in the Democratic Party. I attended the Texas precinct caucus, the county convention (rigged), presented unchallenged evidence of violations of the state party rules before the state credentials committee (Obama reps outnumbered Clinton reps -- again rigged), and watched that debacle of the RBC of the DNC. A national shame when one awards delegates not based on the actual vote of the PEOPLE but upon exit polls. When did we take "demo" out of Democracy?

Karma Cometh
[Read the article: New heights of stupidity]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]So Mr. Obama is getting back some cynical manipulation just like that which he dished out against both Clintons. Karma is tough duty.
