"How did it come to pass that an opposition's measure of a president's foreign policy was all or nothing, success or "failure"? The answer is that the political absolutism now normal in Washington arrived at the moment--Nov. 7, 2000--that our politics subordinated even a war against terror to seizing the office of the presidency." - Daniel Henninger - WSJ 11/18/05

The Wesley Clark Challenge

Italics of the twist (not necessary for those with even slight intelligence) from a former soldier and former presidential wannabe. In my opinion the general is fitting in just fine.

From one at the Huffer:

"Last week, Rush Limbaugh labeled any American soldier who supports an end to the war in Iraq as "phony." We challenged Limbaugh through an email campaign to invite VoteVets.org's Jon Soltz to his show and repeat these same insults to an Iraq war veteran's face. Over 10,000 people responded and emailed Rush -- but to our disappointment, he has refused to respond to our request."
Oh the disappointment. How does one repeat that which they didn't actually say or connote?

What does it mean when a former general sees things this way...hmmm, how's the war going?
