Who Says Republicans Are The Only Uncool Guys Guys?:
“THE GENERAL’S SWAN SONG: I know this may be old news, but while we’re on the subject of Wes Clark, I can’t resist passing on the story of how Clark spent the final night of his campaign Wednesday in Little Rock after he bowed out of the race and began his bid to be John Kerry’s vice president.
Semi-chilled Bud Light was the drink of choice, as it was on the Clark campaign bus. The already paper-thin wall separating the young Clark media embeds and the young Clark staffers was finally torn down, and both sides joined the general in the kitchen. There, at the top of his lungs, the former Supreme Allied Commander sang Madonna’s ‘Like a Prayer’ and Journey’s ‘Don’t Stop Believin’.’ One ex-Clarkie quipped, ‘The scariest part was that he knew all the words.'”
Yeah, yeah. I know. He’s a freakshow on wheels, a complete failure who nobody can understand how he ever came to get into West Point much less earn four stars and who should have been put away in a looney bin years ago because he’s such a hated grudgebearing egomaniac, hypocrite and phony like all those other generals who have been thrown on the ash heap of history.
But, since 2000 showed us that the most important quality in a president seems to be whether you would like to have a beer with the guy, put me down as one of those losers who would would much rather hear Wes Clark sing “Like A Prayer” over a couple of lukewarm Bud lights than hang around with a towel snapping, frat boy cheerleader asshole whose idea of fun is an evening hazing of fuzz faced freshmen followed by a hilarious late night round of cow tipping. But, that’s just me.
