CNN: "Wesley Clark tried to Swiftboat John McCain today."

By GottaLaff

I haven't been around all day, but I cannot ignore this. I'm livid right now.

Rick Sanchez's lead-in to his next segment just now on CNN:

"Wesley Clark tried to Swiftboat John McCain today."

I'm liveblogging. He goes on to say:

"It will reverberate for weeks. Wes Clark tried to diss McCain's military record, that his service doesn't qualify him to be president."

Rick Sanchez is mad.

Now his Democratic and Republican guests are wondering why Clark said it. They're scratching their heads so hard, their scalps are falling off.

The Republican talking head is fuming, making the usual Republican fuming points.

Rick Sanchez, to the Democrat: Does this make Clark less likely to be a v.p. candidate?

The Democratic talking head just got cut off by Sanchez:

"Now you're just making the usual Democratic talking points, and that's one thing we don't tolerate on this show-- talking points."

Now he's sputtering about how:

"Obama is moving to the right! ... Even his Democratic counterparts are saying this! This is coming from liberal talk show hosts, and liberal bloggers!!! What's going on?.. Listen to what Ralph Nader said about him!... He's a politician, and I'll use a word used during the Clinton administration, 'triangulating'... Another thing, Barack Obama and Bill Clinton not speaking."

He showed a video clip: The quote from Ralph Nader was his Obama's "trying to act white" comment.

That does it. Back to nursing my very pulled, very painful shoulder. After hearing all that blatant hypocrisy and obvious ratings-inducing bias, I could use some meds.
