The Rise Of The Barracks Emporer?(Snippets Regarding Candidate General Wesley Clark. My Own Title.)

The Washington Times ^ | 18 Aug 03 | By Greg Pierce

[.cnI redruM]

Former NATO commander Gen. Wesley Clark said yesterday that he is being drawn into politics and would decide in two to three weeks whether to seek the Democratic presidential nomination.

Mr. Clark, interviewed on CNN's "Late Edition," said he had found an "enormous hunger for leadership" as he toured the country.

redruM's musings.

1)Clark Vs. Dean -- Worth popping microwave popcorn and cracking open a brew when these two debate foreign policy.

2)Can a former general really turn out the Democratic base? hmmm....

Not another guy from Arkansas, please.

Wesley Pruden's Editorial yesterday...food for thought:

http://www.washtimes.com/national/pruden.htm

"......The seven dwarfs (plus Dennis Kucinich and Carol Moseley Braun) will be lying in a large pool of their collective blood, having slain each other en route to Boston and the Democratic National Convention, with the French-looking John Kerry and the tired-looking Dick Gephardt having gone down in Iowa and New Hampshire and the evil Dr. Doom having come a cropper in the Confederate primaries. Hillary will have secured New York and Bill will have pocketed California, and from there the convention should be easy pickings.

Wesley Clark, the retired general from Little Rock, will be waiting in the wings as Hillary's veep, standing by to give her cover for the mean and malicious things she and the mister have been saying (and thinking) about anyone in the uniform for lo, these many years. When you're married to the world's most famous draft dodger, you'll need all the brass courage a distinguished four-star general can bring. That's the plan, anyway. "

[D. Brian Carter]

I figure it's gonna take about five votes per state to win the Democratic nomination, especially since there are a few more folks poised to jump into the fray right behind Clark.

[nuffsenuff]

He'll never get the Dem nomination...

They obviously don't know who he really is, and I'm sure that if he becomes a serious contender, the REAL Wesley Clark will be exposed and the Dems won't nominate him.

[Rhetorical pi2]

Geez!! I hadn't thought of the Hitlery connection.

What a Byzantine swamp these Democrats slosh through!!

[DTA]

My solution for terrorism?
I salute it !

WESLEY KLArk for President

[Honorary Serb]

That's all we need--the Serbophobic Wesley KLArk as a presidential candidate. He says that the occupation of Iraq has made America vulnerable. Well--what about the occupation of Kosovo and Bosnia, which are now sinkholes of islamofascist terorism and criminality?

The only thing worse than a KLArk candidacy would be a double-Serbophobe/islamist shill ticket of Hillary Rodham Izetbegovic Khomeini and Wesley "Perfumed Prince" KLArk!!!!

[Honorary Serb]

Good morning, DTA! You just beat me to the punch with the "KLArk" angle!

[DTA]

"I do solemnly swear that I will faithfully execute
the office of President of the United States,
and will to the best of my ability, preserve,
protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

Like I did in Ft. Hood , Tx

WESLEY KLArk for President

[DTA]

I have guts
I almost started WW III

WESLEY KLArk for President

[YaYa123]

and I hope no one forgets Wesley Clark's employer after he retired was Little Rock's The Stephens Group, Inc. Clinton (both of them), connections to The Stephens Group Investment Bank, are legion.

[.cnI redruM]

According to Congressman Emanual (D - Clintonville), The Balkans Campaign, conducted under BILL CLINTON (Rahm's empahsis, not mine) puts anything Patton ever did to shame.

[RussianConservative]

So if you elect Clark, should Russia expect beginning of WW3?

[Servant of the Nine]

Former NATO commander Gen. Wesley Clark said yesterday that he is being drawn into politics....

With so many things he could be drawn into, perversion, drug addiction, loonie religiosity, alcoholism, healing with crystals, collecting baseball cards, why did it have to be politics?

So9

[.cnI redruM]

If we elect Clark, Russia should colonize a space station. That man is spring-loaded in the dumb position.

RE: "Barracks Emperor"

Wesley Clark??? LOLOL!!!

First, one needs a successful fighting general, not a bureaucrat.

[.cnI redruM]

How else do ugly nerds become celebrities?

[.cnI redruM]

He's like the guy in HMS Pinafore. "He polished up the door knob so carefully. SO now he's ruler of The Queen's Navy!"

2)Can a former general really turn out the Democratic base? hmmm....

A "General" who committed mass murder of Christians on the behalf of Muslim terrorists? Absolutely.
Didn't you see the post-9/11 protests on C-SPAN? He would be their hero.
