Weaselly Clark, on his record, is a putz, a prissy-ass superduper micromanager ala Jimmuh, and widely disliked throughout the military, but the 'Rats only care about the 4 stars formerly on his shoulder as a diversion from the too-obvious and too-accurate perception of the public that their party doesn't give warm spit for the defense of the nation.
Besides, haven't you noticed that the media, who would collectively cream their jeans if Hitlery were to run, have JUST creamed their jeans when this bozo tossed his hat in? If you think that Weaselly is anything other than a stalking horse for PIAPS, think again.
