I almost embarrassed to admit that General Wesley Clark and I served in the same branch of the US Military, crossing paths while I was assigned to the Protective Service Unit assigned to the Supreme Allied Commander in Europe. My embarrassment stems from the inappropriate comments Clark made about Senator John McCain, a fellow Vietnam Vet, during an appearance on “Face the Nation:”
Mr. Clark has every right to question Senator McCain’s policies and Presidential plans if elected, but to call into question his honorable military service is hard to fathom. Senator McCain’s devotion to his country and commitment to duty is well established, and beyond approach. The fact that a former military commander of Mr. Clark’s esteem would stoop to such a level call into question Clark’s integrity. Clark’s statement reeks of a political hit job, it is clear he learned a lot from the Clinton’s.
Finally, Iraq Veteran and Vets for Freedom Chairman Pete Hegseth provide the perfect response to Mr. Clark’s statements:
