Gen. Clark's only talents are those important for someone wishing to become a General. Tell people what they wish to hear, flatter their intelligence by never contradicting superiors openly, and have a protective mentor more powerful then your competition and their mentors.
Clark was a nobody, going nowhere until he assisted at Waco. He made a powerful friend, and the rest is history. His smarts are the same as Bill Clintons. He can think a lot, but he cant DO anything.
You took the words out of my mouth. How did he make general? He sucked up to Bill clinton and did any dirty work the boss wanted done--such as helping incincerate the children at Waco.
Wasn't Clark already a 3 Star Gen. when Clinton came to office?
