The Manchurian Moonbat

The Manchurian Moonbat - For the benefit of those who thought the President did badly in his interview, Sullivan quotes the ever-less-lucid Wesley Clark, who admits Hussein was a "bad guy", but that we just don't invade nations because their leaders are "bad guys":

There simply aren't many national leaders who are also mass murderers who have used chemical weapons to commit genocide, who have invaded two countries, broken the conditions of a truce with the United States, violated any number of U.N. resolutions and tried to assassinate the president of the United States. Maybe Clark could tell me who else is in that category. No one claimed that Saddam was an "imminent threat" for the umpteenth time. And, most glaring of all, the United States did not "make" Saddam a villain, no more than the U.S. "made" Milosevic a villain. That kind of crap belongs at an ANSWER rally, not in a presidential candidate. Thank God he's losing this race badly.
No kidding.

The left thinks it has something on the President with this "misguided invasion" trope. For that trope to work, they must assume the majority of the nation is...well, as deluded as Wesley Clark (and John Kerry, for that matter).

Are they? 49% voted for Algore, which is troubling.

More tomorrow.
