The Perfumed Prince perfected high altitude bombing of train bridges in Serbia for limiting strategic industrial and transportation capacity. Unfortunantly for Serbians, he bombed them with passanger trains crossing in the process.

Oliver North: “Wes clarks comments were petty and small, much live the man himself”. Ouch, that’s gonna leave a mark. Go Ollie.

Gen Wes also talked about the 9/11 phone call from sources in Canada the US and all over that claimed the White House wanted to link 9/11 to Saddam Hussein. Clark is a nut job.

Petty, small and.........wacky. From a September 30, 2003 article on Wired.com:

“During a whirlwind campaign swing Saturday through New Hampshire, Clark, the newest Democratic presidential candidate, gave supporters one of the first glimpses into his views on technology. ‘We need a vision of how we’re going to move humanity ahead, and then we need to harness science to do it,’ Clark told a group of about 50 people in New Castle attending a house party ... Then the 58-year-old Arkansas native, who retired from the military three years ago, dropped something of a bombshell on the gathering. ‘I still believe in e=mc², but I can’t believe that in all of human history, we’ll never ever be able to go beyond the speed of light to reach where we want to go,’ said Clark. ‘I happen to believe that mankind can do it ... I’ve argued with physicists about it, I’ve argued with best friends about it. I just have to believe it. It’s my only faith-based initiative.’ Clark’s comment prompted laughter and applause from the gathering.” — http://www.wired.com/politics/law/news/2003/09/60629

Cuckoo!

Correction

Oliver North: “General Clark’s comments were petty and small, much like the man himself”

I worked, although not closely, with Gen Clark while at Tradoc. Let's just say that I'll second General Shelton's view of Wes Clark:

Shelton created a minor controversy for 2004 Democratic presidential candidate Wesley Clark, a subordinate to Shelton during the 1999 Kosovo military actions, when he stated: “I will tell you the reason [Clark] came out of Europe early had to do with integrity and character issues, things that are very near and dear to my heart. […] I'll just say Wes won't get my vote,”

I knew people who served under Clark.

It is my understanding Clark was fired for gross incompetence, quietly hushed up.

Rush calls him Ashley Wilkes, lol.

Ha, ha, I like that. Ashley Wilkes with a mean streak. I never could figure out why Scarlett wanted that feminized Ashley.

Well, let’s just put it this way: Klintoon had to fire Clark, does that give you a hint......?

Yea, and FoxNews has to go and hire him....I don't get why they did that.

I know Clark is a sniveling piece of socialist garbage, I just didn’t want to trash the man in the case that he had an honorable service record.

"Don’t know, was it our boy Wes?"

And who preceeded Klintoon to Oxford and choreographed the Toon's summer Oxford vacation through East Europe during the Viet Nam War?
