17. It's called "framing" the story
Clark was not trashing McCain for his duty and pow status during VN, this was so clear. He was simply saying that wasn't a qualifier for presidency. Kerry got trashed and the truth barely broke the surface of MSM. Hell, bush was in the guard having a damned good drunken time and that was not reported?!

Back down, hell no, and Obama seems to have answered it enough and should leave it there, ignore the media's insistence that this is a BIG issue on Clark's part. This story has the repubs truly scared. If the media can just make Clark look like the bad guy, like they did Kerry, they win. In fact, Obama should tell some heroics of Clark's, who is a hero also.

Has McCain mentioned Clark's accomplishments?
