WHO DOES THIS MAKE LESS SENSE FOR?:
McGovern Endorses Clark (NewsMax, Jan. 18, 2004)
Losing 1972 peacenik presidential candidate George McGovern endorsed Gen. Wesley Clark for president at a New Hampshire pancake breakfast Sunday morning. [...]Ironically, McGovern's endorsement came just days after Clark adopted the most hawkish stance of any presidential candidate, saying that he would use a NATO strike force to invade Pakistan in a bid to get Osama bin Laden.
"I will send that strike force into the border areas of Pakistan and Afghanistan, where most believe bin Laden is holed up and where he and his deputies continue to order terrorist attacks," the retired general told reporters on Thursday.
Never mind Mr. McGovern endorsing a guy who wants to unilaterally invade Pakistan, what's amazing here is that the General has said he voted for Richard Nixon in 1972 because Mr. McGovern's anti-war campaign tried to turn the country against the military. Now he accepts his endorsement? Posted by Orrin Judd at January 19, 2004 7:03 PM
He seems to have no judgment on these matters, if his warm embrace of Michael Moore is any indicator.
