The Republican corporate media is parroting Repubican talking points...
once again.

The Repubs rushed out this morning with their talking points of the day. The Obama campaign is attacking John McCain's service record. That is totally false. Nobody attacked his service record. General Wesley Clark simply said that John McCain had never been in a wartime command position. That is absolutely true. Also, he said that McCain's experience in the military did not qualify him for the job of the President. That also is true. His judgment in the military as well his judgment afterwards would lead one to believe he does not have the temperament or the judgment to be President. His close ties to the S&L scandal as part of the Keating Five was a testament to his lack of judgment. If that was not enough, his cheerleading for the invasion of Iraq was another prime example of the lack of judgment of someone running for President. He should be called on it and we will call him on it. We will not overlook it this time around.

2. You are correct.
Have your written your letters to the media today?

Because if we wait for the media to do what it does, without the people commenting on the media's take.
