Retired U.S. general takes swipe at McCain's military service

Gen. Wesley Clark, acting as a surrogate for Barack Obama’s campaign, invoked John McCain’s military service against him in one of the more personal attacks on the Republican presidential nominee this election cycle. ADVERTISEMENT

Clark said that McCain lacked the executive experience necessary to be president, calling him “untested and untried” on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” And in saying so, he took a few swipes at McCain’s military service.

“He has been a voice on the Senate Armed Services Committee. And he has traveled all over the world. But he hasn't held executive responsibility. That large squadron in the Navy that he commanded — that wasn't a wartime squadron,” Clark said.

An Arkancide, political general.

(Rather like Colin Powell, sans the Arkancide.)

And who takes money from George Soros...

Weasely Clark—the cluster bomber of innocents in Serbia during Easter at the behest of the great fornicator in the WH - the madman who almost started WWIII.

What a miserable POS.

Oh he's "brave" when ordering others to drop cluster bomsb on innocents - former allies - all right.

Oh Happy days establishing another muslim statelet in Europe - here Herr Clark pictured with Snake Thaci and Agim Ceku - KLA terrorist butcher of innocent Christians

Obama doesn’t have to register for the selective service because he wasn’t born in the US and isn’t a citizen.

I’d love to get this guy on the record, in regards to his role in training known Islamic terrorists and radicals, some of whom have been linked to known terrorist attacks around the globe.

Of course, he also commited perjury on the stand at the Hague during the Miloševic trials.

Clark is a despicable Piece of Shiite... Scumbag, always has been

I wouldn’t be surprised that Clark is getting some of it too...

[PhilDragoo]

Clark murdered dozens of children at Waco and 2,000 civilians in Serbia. He is a war criminal.

[Grampa Dave]

Rxcllent.

This serial killer of innocent civilians in America and Serbia will be the perfect Sec of Def for our American Mugabe, Hussein Obama.

My apologies to Bob Schieffer, he DID ask that question to Weasely Clark. Of course, Clark didn’t answer it and went on with his rehearsed response. Bob did not follow up.

Lately, there are few things McCain does that cause me to want to vote for him, (actually I would be voting against Obabarama).

However, hearing Weasely talk moves my trembling hand yet closer to the McCain lever.

And no, I don't think Weasley is acting as an independent agent, he was directed to say what he said.

And yes, I think McCain better get a clue pretty soon of what he is up against with the American left.

...the one unassailable aspect of a light-weight opponent.

LOL! Nail on the head!

“untested and untried”—True statement but the pot calling the kettle black reaches the height of hypocrisy.

That's racist! ;)

[lilylangtree]

I debated with myself to add the words “no pun intended!” :)

[Paul Ross]

Nice summary of his basic positions!

[HereInTheHeartland]

These people show again how stupid they think the voters are.

Obama was something like a dog catcher in Chicago, before getting in the Senate.
He has never done anything significant.

Compared to McCain who served his country honorably.

And they are stupid enough to attack McCain's service as not being enough?
