Reply #5: These are legitimate issues in which to criticize Clark

[IndianaGreen]

and are not the orgy of Clark bashing we have seen in DU recently. Clark should be pressed hard to clarify the following statement:

Clark said his views on the war resemble those of Democratic Sens. Joseph I. Lieberman (Conn.) and John F. Kerry (Mass.), both of whom voted for the war but now question President Bush's stewardship of the Iraqi occupation.

We know how popular Lieberman is among the Democratic rank and file. As to Kerry, he waffles so much in his ever-changing excuses for his Iraq war vote, that I find it difficult to believe that Clark can even say that his views are the same as Kerry's.

Keep in mind that the Washington Post has a history of distorting stories to suit its increasingly conservative ideological bend.
