McCain/GOP aren't having their way with Ret. Gen. Clark's comment

Just listening on POTUS'08 on XM, what I view as a centrist to right-leaning station (though they do air some progressive shows).

They first played Gen. Clark's comments in full context. Then they stated that most MSM 'news' casters are quoting this out of context and playing just a 5-second sound-bite. Then they brought on a RW pundit who said he knew Clark's comments would stir controversy as soon as he heard them.

"Why" asked the POTUS caster?
RW pundit: "Because, the comment goes beyond the pale" (Hannity's favorite faux-outrage term)
POTUS: "But don't you admit the quote is being taken out of context"
RW pundit: "Oh, certainly."

He had nothing to add. Again the POTUS caster asked shouldn't they be taken in context in all fairness? "Yes" said the RW pundit, he even added, "Most certainly".

It was definitely an odd interview that completely exposed, for *anyone* listening, the extent of the faux outrage.

I believe this is how it's going to play out over all. It will backfire on McCain trying to express the faux outrage over this statement, when it is 100% completely valid.

McCain was a POW 40-years ago. That does not make him an expert on foreign policy in the 21st century. I guess it is just to much to ask the MSM to stop acting like a bunch of junior high schoolers and grow the fuck up. They are making me sick. And Obama didn't need to kiss their asses. That pissed me off too.

MSNBC and the rest of the SCLM is fighting the good fight on their behalf.
