I think that the McCain campaign's statement that this is an attack on their candidate's military experience is a joke. If you watch the interview, Clark even said something along the lines of praising him for serving his country. As has been pointed out above, military experience and foreign policy experience are two very different things.
Funny enough, the Republicans are using the same argument with McCain that they ripped apart when John Kerry was the Democratic nominee in 2004. Apparently, military experience only matters to the GOP when their candidate has it.
