McCain campaign gets greedy
After getting what it wanted out of the manufactured Clark story, the McCain camp goes back to an empty well.
Steve Benen [2008-07-01]

  • Media Hypocrisy

    Why is it that John Kerry's service could be and was significantly examined and attacked by the MSM after the swiftboating--and that in comparison to Bush's lack of service during the Vietnam war--but McCain's service is somehow sacred and not-to-be-questioned? Why is it that examinations of Bush's service was also never taken seriously by the MSM? I'm sick and tired of McCain being treated like a "war hero"--whose lives did he save? What heroic act did he perform? How many victories did he lead? I'm not denigrating his strength and endurance as a POW nor am I denigrating his service--both are admirable. But Clark was and is correct--where was the leadership in getting show down and imprisoned? Did he lead a prison break???

    One more thing--last night on Cafferty a commentor stated that McCain's education at the Naval Academy was proof he had been trained to be a leader--without mention, of course, that he graduated at the bottom of his class.

    Liberal media?
