The Lighter Side of Max Cleland

|

Former Senator Max Cleland, the triple-amputee Vietnam Veteran impugned by "Saxby Chambliss" for lack of patriotism, gets an interesting profile in The Washington Post. "It was the second big grenade in my life,'' he says of his defeat in last year's election. "It blew me up. It happened very quickly and very intensely, and I was left with virtually nothing but my life." He also had his handicapable Cadillac totaled by a befuddled parking attendant. On the plus side, he's getting married.
