"We" refers to the members of this community. I guess the word was too general for those who see conspiracy everywhere.
And now that your distracting question is answered one has to ask themselves why does it matter? So pretend I'm the head of the DU because you probably do anyway. Get back to the message, not the messenger. Focus on the issue, not the person bringing it up.
By the way, the original post that I was referring to only has about 40 replies at this point in time. Where do you get 200+? Did you follow the hyperlink to the other Free Republic discussion that I posted here? Maybe that is the source of your confusion as to where I stand.
Yeah facts were certainly presented in the form of actual quotes. The Weekly Standard article was supposed to be fact. But when I was forced to dig deeper I realized all these facts were taken out of context. Its like reading the Bible and saying the whole thing is violent and horrible because of one chapter out of the book of Joshua.
And you still aren't addressing the issues. Its still all about me and distracting questions. Don't worry I will soon be gone as I cannot get what I need here and I grow tired of wasting my time completely off of the issue at hand, which is whether this guy essentially contradicted himself or not.
I do not see a conspiracy everywhere, hermes509. However, I did see (and hear) the original interview by Russert with Clark. I know what I heard him say. While you may be correct in stating that he did not specifically say "I got a call on 9/11/01 from the White House asking me to connect the attack to Saddam Hussein," he did give that distinct impression. Perhaps someone should ask
Tim Russert what
he thought Clark was saying.
You assume I thought you to be among the deep thinkers at DU when that is not the case at all. I don't waste my time worrying about what DUers will think about what we post here. Perhaps you'll not be able to find, as you said, what you need here, if that need is to confirm your extreme parsing of words issued by one General Wesley Clark. FreeRepublic is, as founder Jim Robinson has stated many times, a conservative forum. Every single one of your posts to-date has been to a thread involving Wesley Clark. If you're truly a conservative individual, why do you choose to sign up only to defend a man who is not?
