33. In posts too numerous to count here, I read many times
one DU-er or another say they couldn't consider voting for Clark because he was "in the military". How many e-mails do you think Wes has recieved to that effect? He reads the blogs... how many times do you think he read that very remark? Given the frequency and the repeated sentiment, here and elsewhere, among those on the far Left, I don't think it's fair to charcterize this as "buying a myth".

Candidates make speeches to get their point across. To do that, they ALL generalize broadly and emphasize to make their point. If Wes said this, that is why. If he even said something similar, that is why.
