Welcome to those folks looking for the General Clark - George McClellan piece. It appeared yesterday, so please scroll down.

The Civil War military analogies continue to pepper op-ed columns. Here's a Left polemic arguing for a "Halleck Award" and an "Bragg Award," neither being for merit. The really interesting thing is that the Halleck and Bragg context is not given; the reader is expected to know enough about these generals to understand that this is no compliment being paid.

Hey Civil War reenactors: before you drink all that booze and then open fire on your neighbor's house, could you please at least take off the general's uniform? What do we need, a code of conduct or something?
