I am still not convinced that “Weasley” learned anything in Viet Nam. Much less that he is principled enough to have advice that is valuable.

The flaw in the muttle along approach is that the Paks have Nukes. And the Talibunnies would use them if they get them.

The Liar-in-Chief is not capable of running a Lemon-aide stand (or possibly an O-Kook-Aide stand) much less a government. A war, totally out of the question. FAILURE.

And a coming Total Train Wreck.

It does kind of make you wonder why Clark has suddenly become such a hawk with regard to Vietnam. Hope he’s cleared it with his Dem handlers. Cindy Sheehan ain’t a-gonna like it. ;-)

“Weasley” Clark is an opportunistic Traitor. And a Fraud. I can add only he's also a "perfumed prince."

Wesley Clark is one of those non-blinkers. He blinks, maybe, twice a minute. Like Marshall Applewhite, Michael Kinsley, etc.

I always wonder if these non-blinkers were told somewhere along the line that this is a non-verbal signal of tremendous personal power, and they practiced and practiced.

Personally, it repulses me. Non-blinkers also stare. They never look up or down, left or right. Their eyes look dead, like the eyes of a shark. They never appear to be thinking—they just talk. They look as though they are reciting a party line, or perhaps just channeling a spirit guide from the planet Zarkon.

Wesley Clarke told B.O. to get the tank that he loaned Janet Rino in Waco and the SWAT teams in Florida!

I never noticed the paucity of W. Clark's blinking, but Michael Kinsley has Parkinson's disease.

Eyelid movements during blinking in patients with Parkinson's disease.

Combine that with his heretical thinking about Vietnam and Cambodian and Laotian sanctuaries vis-à-vis rat orthodoxy, maybe he needs a MRI or CT and a neurologist.

I’m remembering Kinsley on TV 20-30 years ago. I think he was a non-blinker even before Parkinson’s was in the picture.

We could start to buy the opium from the farmers to defund the Taliban

That's the cover story. The real deal runs more along the lines of what Ollie North set up with cocaine and arms for the contras......and even the muhadjadeen IIRC

We prop local group up they collect the opium and funnel drugs to covert ops guys who move it along taking a cut to fund who the hell knows what (cash for clunkers?)operations that are totally off the books.

A Lt Milo Minderbender Production.

I just wonder how many guys will get hooked over there.

Getting war advice from Wes Clark is like going to Shane Stant, Jeff Gillooly, Shawn Eckardt, and Tonya Harding for knee surgery. Thanks neverdem.
