When it suits the slimes, they actually do describe the enemy accurately...
"There's no uniformed enemy force, no headquarters, no central command complex for U.S. troops to occupy and win. At the end, there will be no surrender."
But they do so with the express purpose of demoralizing Americans and the troops.
Remember, General Clark had a distinguished career in the military, and the fact that he sucked as a political candidate doesn't negate that. Military leaders follow orders and they don't make policy. I'd feel fairly comfortable with a guy like Clark in an advisory role to the administration. The fact that a fish can't ride a bicycle doesn't make it a bad swimmer!
