You mean General Weasely “Precious Bodily Fluids” Clark, who almost triggered WW III, when he was stationed in Europe? The self same Weasely Clark, that wanted to *attack* soviet troops in Eastern Europe? Had started drawing up plans to engage Soviet Forces, before he got yanked up by hiws short hairs and fired, and recalled back to the U.S.? Is *that* the Weasely Clark we’re talking about? Dr Nobama’s military advisor?

I admire those who devote large parts of their lives to service in the American military (probably more than I admire any other group in America), but folks like Wesley Clark demonstrate that something is amiss in the military’s criteria for advancement. Maybe Clark should have made it to O-4 (Major), but no higher. How would you like to have been a fully qualified, full-bird colonel serving under that doofus?

So instead of a general doofus, we’d have one major doofus? I could wish he’d take it upon himself to just go home and fade away as a private doofus. What do you think?

Yep, Clark was bending over for the homo vote when running for President, so he allowed those homos at "The Advocate" to dress him up like their very own Ken doll, snapped the picture, and the rest is history.

Patton is rolling in his grave knowing that this purse swinger also sports 4 stars.

Exactly right. Something WAS amiss. It was called a Clinton.

What ever do you mean...

From Michael Moore's website, September 12th, 2003:

Michael Moore to Wesley Clark: Run!
A Citizen's Appeal to a General in a Time of War (at Home)

Dear General Wesley Clark,

I've been meaning to write to you for some time. Two days after the Oscars, when I felt very alone and somewhat frightened by the level of hatred toward me for daring to suggest that we were being led into war for "fictitious reasons," one person stuck his neck out and came to my defense on national television.

And that person was you.

From Moore's website, January 14th, 2004:

I'll Be Voting For Wesley Clark / Good-Bye Mr. Bush

Many of you have written to me in the past months asking, 'Who are you going to vote for this year?'

I have decided to cast my vote in the primary for Wesley Clark. That's right, a peacenik is voting for a general. What a country!

Michael Moore quote, also from his website...

The Iraqis who have risen up against the occupation are not "insurgents" or "terrorists" or "The Enemy." They are the REVOLUTION, the Minutemen, and their numbers will grow -- and they will win. Get it, Mr. Bush?
[actual quote from Michael Moore (2004). It still appears on his website]

This one has been up for years, although I doubt if it's actually Michael Moore saying it...

The Communist Party USA (CPUSA):
"We are a party of unity in action. We are an integral part of every struggle and movement for change to eliminate poverty and joblessness, against racism and for full equality. We are participants, initiators and leaders of every movement to make life better now and much better in a socialist future." Yeah, so they supported an oppressive dictator, like the Repubs and Democrats haven't? The CP is still around, has apologized for that whole Stalin thing, and has a quickly growing youth section.

My Vote's for Obama (if I could vote) ...by Michael Moore

Friends,

I don't get to vote for President this primary season. I live in Michigan. The party leaders (both here and in D.C.) couldn't get their act together, and thus our votes will not be counted.

So, if you live in Pennsylvania, can you do me a favor? Will you please cast my vote -- and yours -- on Tuesday for Senator Barack Obama?

Patton would hit, not slap, the SOB and then shoot him and then make it clear that he shot him with an Ivory handled pistol, not a “Pearl” handled pistol.

Clark was from Slick Willie’s home state who supported Clark. It was Willie who told the military to assign him to NATO. It was the military who decided to pull him out.

Remember that Clark is a long standing FOB, his connections with the Clintons go back a long way and Obama should be real nervous about having that guy on board.

Actually, I did work for Wesley Clark when he was an O-6. Although he treated me relatively well (I was too far down the totem pole to be either a threat or a nuisance to him), he alienated most people so much that he was known as "the P.O.D.", or "the Prince of Darkness". BTW, other mutual acquaintances of Clark have told me that Wes entered the campaign in '04 at the behest of the Clintons. Knowing that Hill was too inexperienced to get the nomination that year, the wanted Clark to create a clamor for someone with military and patriotic "bona fides", so that the Party would nominate someone the Clintons regarded as a sure loser, John Kerry. The funny thing is that Clark's only resume item was his military service, and now he's saying that's not enough.
