TACOMA -- Wesley K. Clark yesterday hammered President Bush as ''incompetent" and ''indecisive," as he kicked off a raucous outdoor rally for John F. Kerry before the Democratic presidential nominee ceded the political spotlight for the Republican National Convention this week.
.....''Where was George Bush when young men from Arkansas and Texas and Massachusetts were called to serve their country and went to Vietnam?" Clark shouted as Kerry stood next to him before thousands gathered in a parking lot outside the Tacoma Dome. ''Where was George Bush? He wasn't there. I think it's outrageous that the president of the United States can question the medals and the service and the valor of American veterans who have served."
....While Kerry refused to speak to reporters last week, ostensibly because his staff did not want him to perpetuate the story, he has raised the issue every day in one form or another as polls indicate voters beginning to blame Bush for the attacks.
Yesterday's speech by Clark, who departed the stage and left the rally immediately after his remarks, guaranteed more coverage as the Republicans convened for their quadrennial convention in New York and Kerry left for a working vacation on Nantucket.
Kerry was then introduced by Jim Rassmann, the former Army Green Beret he rescued during one of the battles now questioned by the anti-Kerry veterans.
Afterward, Kerry spokesman David Wade said of Clark: ''Obviously, he's very angry about these attacks. He does not speak for us, though.".....

Bump!
As I recall, Clark was not considered competent for the position Clinton had him promoted to, according to his superiors and peers. Bird of a feather with Kerry; both are UNFIT FOR COMMAND.
I just pinged you.
Go take a look at Kerry's sister.
ROTFLOL!
The merry band of frauds.
Reminds me of Eddie Haskel.
These guys are caricatures of themselves. Even after the historically effective Swiftee's attack, they're still running on Kerry's vaunted Vietnam service. Beyond rabid ABBs, no way this continues to fool America.
This story on Clark defending Kerry is a perfect example of Rush Limbaugh explaining that Liberals have to mask and camouflage themselves as someone or something they aren't.
No president is perfect, and Kerry sure won't be either. The "mistakes" President Bush makes often err on the proper side of an issue. Kerry's have been anywhere else.
Wesley Clark's role at WACO was what exactly? What did his imaginary friend tell him to do?
DK
Wesley's role at Waco was to give the command to "charge".
Waco will forever be remembered as Wesley Clark's "Tear Down That Wall" moment, as he commanded the stormtroopers to fan out around the compound and order the tank to stab it's turret into the west wall of the compound.
Moral foundation? That just confuses anarchists, leftists, and many Democrats.
Kamp Kerry is fanning the flames of defeat.
...who butchered hundreds in Kosovo when there wasn't even the slightest hint of a threat to this Republic.
..and who also was in command of the military base where Abrams tanks were used in a police action against US civilians, which resulted in 80+ deaths. Remember WACO!
Clark HAD to give the OK for the tanks to leave the military base. He's a Tyrant and Murderer of the highest order, IMHO.
.....''Where was George Bush when young men from Arkansas and Texas and Massachusetts were called to serve their country and went to Vietnam?"
Honorably serving in the National Guard. Got a problem with that?
Clark shouted as Kerry stood next to him before thousands gathered in a parking lot outside the Tacoma Dome. ''Where was George Bush? He wasn't there.
So what?
I think it's outrageous that the president of the United States can question the medals and the service and the valor of American veterans who have served.
Uh, he hasn't Wesley. You're a f-----g liar, Wesley!
While Kerry refused to speak to reporters last week, ostensibly because his staff did not want him to perpetuate the story, he has raised the issue every day in one form or another as polls indicate voters beginning to blame Bush for the attacks.
Thanks to a relentless MSM propaganda campaign...
Yesterday's speech by Clark, who departed the stage and left the rally immediately after his remarks, guaranteed more coverage as the Republicans convened for their quadrennial convention in New York and Kerry left for a working vacation on Nantucket.
Anyone who is brave enough to read "Unfit For Command" will learn the truth about the transparent, lying opportunist named John Kerry.
Kerry was then introduced by Jim Rassmann, the former Army Green Beret he rescued during one of the battles now questioned by the anti-Kerry veterans.
Rassman is one of the distinct minority of veterans and military peers who supports Kerry. Kerry plucked him out of the water. Coincidence? Such an act does not, per se, qualify Kerry for the Presidency. And Kerry's other acts DISQUALIFY him! If Kerry is elected, he will be the most MARXIST President the US ever had.
Kerry will make FDR look like a freakin' conservative, IMHO, with his desire to nationalize an additional 10-20% of the GDP (health care.) Not to mention attacking the Second Amendment under the guise of "gun safety."
Afterward, Kerry spokesman David Wade said of Clark: "Obviously, he's very angry about these attacks. He does not speak for us, though."
...although Kerry invited him to speak and undoubtedly knew what he was going to say. Talk about surrogates!
The hypocrisy is just breathtaking, and many swing voters will see right through it, IMHO.
He was traveling around the country denigrating their service, dividing the country both spiritually and morally, attending meetings to plan assassinations of Senators, and plotting his future role in politics.
The mellow crowd, right?! What a joke.
And check out this nonsense:
Afterward, Kerry spokesman David Wade said of Clark: ''Obviously, he's very angry about these attacks. He does not speak for us, though."
Um, he's speaking at the same campaign event as Kerry, on behalf of Kerry. Who was he speaking for?
