Ramsey Clark Endorses John Kerry
Accuracy In Media ^ | March 1, 2004 | Cliff Kincaid

Posted on 03/01/2004 11:07:18 AM PST by demlosers

One of the leading “America bashers” on the political scene today has endorsed John Kerry for president. Speaking to reporters after a February 27 Washington press conference to rally support for Haiti’s Marxist President Jean-Bertrand Aristide, Ramsey Clark said he’s voting for Kerry because he would take U.S. foreign policy in a new direction.

This is certainly the case. Kerry told the New York Daily News editorial board that he would have intervened “unilaterally” with U.S. troops if necessary to save Aristide’s corrupt regime from a popular rebellion. Aristide, who developed a reputation for brutalizing and killing his political opponents, was encouraged by the Bush administration to leave the country.

“I think John Kerry is a great human being,” Clark told this reporter. “I knew him when he was—I call a youngster—in his 20s. I saw him as an extremely caring person, an extremely courageous person, and a person who was deeply concerned for peace and the well-being of other people.”

Clark has been labeled a “traitor” for his habit of showing up in countries hostile to the U.S. A lawyer, he has represented accused terrorists and war criminals.

Then Ramsey Clark is a huge hypocrite, for in backing Kerry he's backing a supporter of Clintoon's bombing of the Serbs (IIRC) -- a war Clark deplored (and the one time he's been right in 50+ years).

I just hope Ramsey somehow shows up on the campaign trail. A photo of Ramsey and Kerry together would make a nice addition to the collection.

That's what I was thinking- Kerry can now kiss a lot of moderates goodbye.

Quelle surprise! Ooh, la, la, ces enfants terribles!

(I can't remember how to say "kiss of death" in French, but I suspect it is something like "Gore d'morte", LOL!)

And Li'l Kim's Dad Kim Jong-Il who is still officially the North Korean President, although he's been dead for over 8 years (but that won't stop him from voting for Kerry anyway ;) )

"I'll give you $50 if you can EXPLAIN what he said."

Kerry said he is for Aristide and then against him. Then he said he is against the rebels and then for them.

You can pay me in corned beef from the Stage deli.
