This morning on Fox News, Brian Kilmead brought up the question of Wesley Clark's credibility. Seems as though Gen. Clark made some outrageous statements while he was the sitting arm chair General on CCN regarding the Iraq war. Bottom line, Gen. Clark lies.....another "liar" from Arkansas.

Critical as the military has been of President Clinton's sense of propriety, their own faces should have been a little red when the army's Lt. Gen. Wesley Clark-director of strategy for the Joint Chiefs of Staff-had one of those heart-warming military-to-military exchanges with Serbian Gen. Ratko Mladic. That's the same Mladic who was nominated in 1992 by then-Secretary of State Lawrence Eagleburger as a prime candidate for a war-crimes trial for his vigorous "ethnic cleansing." According to State Department officials, Clark was asked twice to keep away from Mladic, but "he went anyway" according to the Washington Times (September 2, 1994). Clark's tête-à-tête with Mladic may be tame by Jane Fonda-visits-Hanoi standards, but, according to one U.S. official, "It's like cavorting with Hermann Goering." To further the embarrassment, a photo of Clark and Mladic, wearing each other's hats, appeared in several European newspapers (Washington Post, September 1, 1994).

That's interesting. . . if you take a clip of what Clark predicted would happen (negative) and then when actually happened (positive) in any phase of the Iraq war, you will see that he was almost always wrong. Do we want a guy who is always wrong as president? NO (that's why Jimmy Carter got the boot).
