Wesley Clark best Line

Roger Ailes (the good blogger, not the bad FoxNews Svengali) reminds us that Wesley Clark had a very good quote in a speech that was probably the best Clark ever gave:

Franklin Roosevelt said it best: "Repetition does not transform a lie into a truth."


And while I am at it, let me steal one more thing from Roger. Last night the punditry stated quoting GOP talking points. Included was the supposedly traitorous fact that Kerry didn't mention he was Lt. Governor under Michael Dukakis in his biographical video. Wow, what a tepid body blow -- what is that the equivalent of GOP "slugbug"? Lame, but as Ailes reminds us, Chimpy McFlightsuit has a pretty long (and this isn't complete) list of failures. A few lowlights that he will likely not mention:

Let's see how many of these career highlights make the Bush video:

Failed to appear for flight physical
Failed to appear for duty, Alabama National Guard (or, alternatively, read magazines in lieu of actual military service)
Failed sobriety test
Failed businessman (Arbusto)
Failed candidate (U.S. Congress)
Member of failed G.H.W. Bush reelection committee
Failed governor (education, environment, etc.)
Failed to win popular vote
Failed to win necessary electoral college votes
Failed to prevent terrorist attacks on America
Failed to tell the truth about war with Iraq
"Mission Failed"
Failed to find WMDs
Failed economy
Osama who?
