1. Remember

Clark sat out Vietnam, he claimed "back problems" which were miraculously cured right after we withdrew. Only then, did he decide to enter the service. As much as we dislike Bush, at least he wore a uniform during the war. So, he was in the National Guard, he could have been called up. Yeah, it was kind of a duck of service, but not a total duck of service.

2. Also, don't forget, Bush wore the uniform all the way through

the war, up to the point in which they started having him pee in the cup.

3. I hope you're being sarcastic....

Clark served with distinction in Vietnam, and was wounded in combat there.

If you're not being sarcastic, then you really need to educate yourself.

Yup, it was sarcasm...glad you caught it.

5. Clark may be a 4-star general, but Dean is a 6-term governor

when we're talking about running for political office, the latter accomplishment counts for more in my book.
