The loudest applause during Wesley Clark’s speech last night came at the end of this:
- Under John Kerry we will attack and destroy the terrorist threats to America. He’ll join the pantheon of great wartime Democrats.
Great Democrats like Woodrow Wilson, who led us to victory in World War 1. Great Democrats like Franklin Roosevelt and Harry Truman, who turned back the tide of fascism to win World War II. Great Democrats like John Kennedy, who stood firm and steered us safely through the Cuban Missile Crisis. And great Democrats like Bill Clinton, who confronted ethnic cleansing in Yugoslavia, and with diplomacy — backed by force — brought peace to a shattered land.
Read the whole putrid thing.
