Who's Wesley Clark?

Is he one of the California Governor candidates?

"widely disliked in the Army" would be one way of putting it. When he was Supremem Commander, NATO, he was sarcastically referred ot as the Supreme Being. A notion of himself which he no doubt sincerely holds.

Lessee: Serious character issues, relieved of command, tried to attack Russian troops and now he's talking about time travel in New Hampshire...Let's hope he does get the Dempcratic nomination.

I can't help but think that someone should see if Weasley Clark spent a few unaccounted for months in his youth in the Soviet Union (ala his former commander in heat) before starting his sudden climb up the military ranks.

In the last Dem debate, the first question was to Clark to explain why he became a Democrat. Well, he went on and on why he did. According to a thread last week, somebody checked after the debate and he still wasn't a Democrat !!!

I dislike candidates who mislead, those whose resumes and experiences don't make sense with their views, and those who don't have a track record of actually voting on these tough issues.

It's easy for Clark to say he would've opposed the war, yet his track record seems to be to come in shooting. He obviously has no passion for the views he espouses today.

The other one is Dean. He's disclaimed many of his previous views about pulling out of Iraq and Social Security age. He has no track record in voting for things that would apply to the whole country. He's delusional enough to think that supervising the state of tree-huggers, gentleman farmers, lunatics of all ilks (and not that many) somehow qualifies him to run the world. Nothing in his resume suggests he would feel the pain of those whom he pretends to represent.

They're both stealth candidates. We'd all be better off with someone who has a voting track record.

The war began after a chorus of charges that the Serbians were unleashing genocidal holocaust upon Kosovars, Albanians, and other largely Muslim minorities....

There were about 500,000 refugees on the Albanian and Macedonian boarders. It was only then that the international community decided to do something, because nobody wanted to take those people in.

People that decide if a war is justified based on if thier party is for it are dangerous.

People that think that those refugees should have been left to die, because they were Muslim or brown people, sicken me.

If you've got good criticism of how some administration administered some war, it's all good. Just don't use Milosovic's talking points; they're a bit tainted.

We have to remember that Clark Bar only has the views that the Clintons tell him he has. This twit is nothing more than a Clinton sock puppet and, if he were ever to be somehow elected President (not in a gazillion years), every move he made, every word he said would be orchestrated and dictated by the Clintons. Pulling the curtin back will reveal the two of them pulling his strings.

I've heard liberals say similar things:
"Clark may have voted for Reagan and Bush's dad."
"Look at Republicans for Dean, look at his fiscally conservative record as govenor."

Both of these guys apposed the war when it was popular, and now benifit from it being unpopular. And because they seem to be "out siders", liberals think the DLC has sold them out. Though Clark is charged as being a DLC steal

He has no track record in voting for things that would apply to the whole country.
How were the last two guys from Texas and Arkansas any different?

At least they had a publicly recorded history of policy advocacy/initiative and political effectiveness. But, this is the least of Clark's problems in my mind.

General Shelton is not alone in his opinion. General Clark is widely disliked in the Army.

Of course, to 'Rat voters, this is a positive. If those baby-killing war-mongers in the Pentagon don't like Weasely Clark, he must be their kind of guy! All that talk about character and integrity from the baby killers is just code-talk for covering one another's butts, isn't it?
