Huh. And it seems like only one election ago when the Democratic presidential candidate told us he was "reporting for duty", and how important "real" as aopposed to W’s fake military service was.
The importance of military service now? Not so much. |

Charles Krauthammer used that exact word — inartful — last night on Brit Hume’s program. He used it in reference to something about Obama, but I don’t recall the precise context.
Obama’s handlers seem to be avid borrowers. |

I can only guess that the Democrats are trying to avenge John Kerry.
Why anyone would want to do that is beyond my comprehension, but it is the only possible reason I can come up with for why they would decide to pick this particular fight. |

Sort of has some of the buzz of inoperative"This is the operative statement. The others are inoperative." |

Why doesn’t someone from the McCain campaign make the obvious point that McCain isn’t running on his military record (which is unquestionably bad ass and dwarfs any accomplishment Barry could achieve in ten lifetimes)? He is running on his record in the Senate, which is why I will have trouble voting for him in November. |

I can start to believe the claim that this is about taking swipes at McCain in hopes he goes off the handle and their have their ’ho7-head’ photo-op. |

BTW, I can’t believe ’h.o.t.-h.e.a.d’ is banned. Perhaps it was the proximity of the two words. |

Yes, perhaps even dumber than "He’s too old." I hope the Democrats keep this up.

Perhaps Barack is thinking of himself as Jack Hawkins, the "Artful Dodger" in Oliver Twist. His tax plans do resemble the work of a master pickpocket. |

Inartful, presuming we assume it’s the opposite of artful, would imply there was a GOOD way of questioning McCain’s service. So is Obama claiming Clark merely chose his words badly? |

...presuming we assume it’s the opposite of artful, would imply there was a GOOD way of questioning McCain’s service. So is Obama claiming Clark merely chose his words badly? You beat me to it. I was thinking that as I walked the dogs today. Apparently there IS an artful way to say it. At least according to the Obama there is... |

Inartful is hardly a new word. I even found a defintion for it at the dictionarist.com: "adj. performed without art or skill, lack of art or skill; artless; unskillful or not wise in achieving an end; not inventive or creative; unimaginative; not adroit"
I first saw it used on a right-wing blog in 2006, describing the left.
And I agree, Clark chose his words badly. He didn’t put down McCains service at all. He said being shot down doesn’t qualify one to be president. If that were so, why isn’t my cousin, who was also shot down in Vietnam, qualified to be president?
You guys are making a mountain out of an anthill. |

He didn’t put down McCains service at all. He said being shot down doesn’t qualify one to be president. It was an obvious attempt to minimize (20 years of service in the Navy boiled down to one "ride" in a "jet fighter" and being "shot down"), and denigrate (his command of the largest squadron in the Navy wasn’t "executive experience" because it wasn’t during wartime) his service.
If you don’t understand that, Michelle, then perhaps it does seem like an "anthill" to you. |
