Confirming Democrat Idiocy:Attacks on McCain’s Military Service Coming From Obama Camp, Not Just Clark

We see by way of Ben Smith this monring that Idiot Wes Clark still can’t keep his mouth shut, [1] apparently referring to bury himself by what comes out of it. That’s bad enough. But now, by way of Q&O [2] and ABC news, we see that Clark isn’t the only one:

There was a time, and not too long ago, that some criticisms were so beyond the pale, that no politician would dream of using them to denigrate a political opponent. To do so would invite such a negative backlash that voters would reject in disgust the candidate who did so.

Those times, apparently, are past, at least for the candidate’s supporters.

After General Wesley Clark’s dismissal of John McCain’s POW experience in Vietnam, yet another Obama supporter has stepped in with the same criticism [3].

While Barack Obama was urging supporters not to devalue the military service of rival John McCain, an informal Obama adviser argued Monday that the former POW’s isolation during the Vietnam War has hobbled the Arizona senator’s capacity as a war-time leader.

“Sadly, Sen. McCain was not available during those times, and I say that with all due respect to him,” said informal Obama adviser Rand Beers. “I think that the notion that the members of the Senate who were in the ground forces or who were ashore in Vietnam have a very different view of Vietnam and the cost that you described than John McCain does because he was in isolation essentially for many of those years and did not experience the turmoil here or the challenges that were involved for those of us who served in Vietnam during the Vietnam war.”

“So I think,” he continued, “to some extent his national security experience in that regard is sadly limited and I think it is reflected in some of the ways that he thinks about how U.S. forces might be committed to conflicts around the world.”

So much for the concept that the attacks on McCain’s military service didn’t come from Obama’s camp, but rather came from Confirmed Idiot Wes Clark. With this note, all that illusion is gone.

Here it is, people…When the Obama supporters all start mouthing exactly the same nonsense… when clearly, Clark, for one, hasn’t the wit to come up with this stuff by himself, what we have here is an organized effort by the Obama camp. Obama’s been doing this all along; Surrogates end up saying the smears and other trash talk the campaign needs to spread, and when things get too hot because of what gets said, Obama simply tosses the speaker under the bus, and claims he’s running a ‘clean campaign’, and he’s shocked…. shocked… that any of his people would come up with such a comment.

 

Addendum:(Bit)

And now, we see where Obama supoprters are charging that John McCain is guilty of war crimes. [4]

Such idiocy is the staple of leftism, today.

Addendum II:  (David L)

BO was not content to slime just Captain McCain.   BO has done a Kerry and slimed all American Fighting Men, oddy enough to include Kerry, Bob Kerrey, John Murtha and Al Gore.   BO has made it personal.  This slime will not be allowed to stand.

If you extend the logic, BO just impugned all who ever wore the uniform to include, George McGovern, John Kennedy and Harry Truman.
