Comments on: Wesley Clark: Barack Obama Has No Command Experience, and Is Not Fit for the Presidency http://moorethoughts.com/2008/06/30/wesley-clark-barack-obama-has-no-command-experience-and-is-not-fit-for-the-presidency/ Conservatism, Freedom, Capitalism Tue, 07 Oct 2008 10:08:14 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Jimmy http://moorethoughts.com/2008/06/30/wesley-clark-barack-obama-has-no-command-experience-and-is-not-fit-for-the-presidency/#comment-249990 Jimmy Wed, 02 Jul 2008 14:15:22 +0000 http://moorethoughts.com/?p=4092#comment-249990 It's a special form of the straw-man that they are pulling where they simply say the opponent is guilty of something that's half-way believable then shift into a full-blown criticism. The sound-bytes get played repeatedly without any context so the unfounded attack stands. That combined with the whole victim posture makes for a formidable opponent in this Oprah generation. Carter II could become a reality if McCain just stays on the defensive.

I hope they pull more of this. Attempting to impugn McCain's military service is, without mincing word or thought, absolutely stupid. Obama is unqualified to be an United States Senator. much less president. The case for him is stretched to begin with. What I have found peculiar is the lack of perception on the Left regarding military service. John Kerry and John McCain's service are not equal. The SBV4T were right in 2004 - but there is no doubting John McCain's dedication to his country. What irritates me more than anything is the continued insistance in the last few days that McCain is unfairly touting his military record. In fact, it is the Democrats bringing it up, for the sole and immoral purpose of tearing it down. Shame is a kind word. Wow, you got me!

Coincidence? I think not! Yes, Obama at age 7 was working with John Kerry on a CIA Special Ops. Mission to Cambodia on Christmas Day of 1968. How dare you criticize Obama’s patriotisms and Love of Country! It’s because he’s black, isn’t it!
