I never GOT Clark--he seemed like some extremely tightly-wound desk jockey who liked to "toss a few back with the boys" once a year to prove he was a man's man. He was one of the least-interesting military commentators, and to this day I recall his prediction of "5000 US dead, minimum" if we attempted to take Baghdad, which would lead one to think he wouldn't bitch and moan about our total losses there so far in the war.

To this civilian he always seems like one of Ralph Peters's "perfumed princes".

Clark is easy to figure out. He started out as a repub - but suddenly made a course change. Clinton fired him as head of NATO - and there were no details as to why he was fired - but there there rumors of misconduct of some kind. I have always believed that Hillary reminded Clark that she knew why Bill fired him and he better do things her way or else. And .. Hillary knowing that info proves to me that Bill told her everything - even stuff she didn't need to know.

I don't get it either. And what is stranger than Clark is the way the ultra libs idolize him. A man who never expressed a Democratic thought in his whole life until he saw a chance to run for president on the Dem ticket. A career military man and a rather heavy handed one at that. The Waco misadventure. Kosovo. Hard to fathom how they can be taken in by such an obvious fraud, yet the libs rave and drool over him.
