"Though he does label Wes Clark's comments "inartful," Obama offers no apologies for them at his presser today. Instead he makes the novel argument that as a candidate for the most powerful post in the world, he's got other, more important things to think about...

The McCain campaign rushed out a statement moments ago attacking Obama for the above appearance, saying: "Apparently Barack Obama now thinks that smear attacks on John McCain's military service are fair game.

The McCain campaign does indeed want an apology from Obama, as opposed to a rejection of Clark's comments. An apology would constitute a kind of admission that Obama had somehow participated in an exercise designed to demean someone's military service. This would make the subtext -- that Obama doesn't sufficiently respect military service in general -- that much easier for the GOP to keep alive. That subtext is what this is really about, of course"


Now this is the Obama I know and admire! ;-)
