A good counterexample might be commanding a wartime squadron during combat. However, as former NATO Supreme Allied Commander Wesley Clark recently pointed out, none of the current candidates can claim that experience. While valiant, Clark insisted on CBS’s Face the Nation, John McCain’s action in Vietnam did not demand the same type of “executive responsibility” that commanding a wartime squadron would have engendered...
...recorded four goals to lead all Crimson scorers, along with Connolly, who began his senior season with seven strong saves in net. Juniors Dan Furman and Thomas Bailey, as well as sophomores Alex Thompson, Jeff Lee, and Juan Camero all contributed to Harvard’s tally, but none could help the Crimson recover after spotting CBU a 5-0 advantage in the first quarter.

She's the creative director...
...French press, pointing to the continued steady decline in the number of practicing Catholics and the French state's commitment to godless reason, tried to prod Vingt-Trois into announcing the funeral for European Catholicism in his own backyard. But the Cardinal would have none of it, and the verbal sparks began...
