Lately, quite a lot of talking heads have been noting McCain plays the pity card frequently, which he has conflated with the how-dare-you-question-a-war-hero card. Rachel Maddow did almost a monologue on it on Keith Olbermann the other night.

When people don't accord Senator Clinton the same respect, it irks me. And she has also gone on to do good work for her constituants and for America. And so I take umbrage at the personal and disgustingly disrespectful insult.
People are free to express that opinion, and I'd like to be free to express my displeasure at the rudeness that I find out of line.

What's a insult is both how Sen. Clinton has played the weak sister card and how it worked.
