"I will tell you the reason he came out of Europe early had to do with integrity and character issues, things that are very near and dear to my heart. I'm not going to say whether I'm a Republican or a Democrat. I'll just say Wes won't get my vote."

Integrity and Character issues! That explains why he's the favorite of the Clintons.

Well, well, well. I bet there is more to the story of his firing than his getting too much face time on TV!

I am hoping that the military doesn't close ranks on Clark, and speaks the truth.

From this NY Times article:

"I've known Wes for a long time. I will tell you the reason he came out of Europe early had to do with integrity and character issues, things that are very near and dear to my heart. I'm not going to say whether I'm a Republican or a Democrat. I'll just say Wes won't get my vote."

Funk was CO of III Corps and Ft. Hood from 1993 to 1995. I think he was talking about Waco. Looks like those who know Weasely Clark best like him least.

Wasn't there a scandal over there concerning forced prostitution? I thought I heard clark's name mentioned. Was the UN involved?

So much has happened since then it is hard to remember

[milemark]

Wow. That's tough talk from General Shelton. Most former military seem to have nothing to say about Clark or else something bad. Interestingly, liberal dems seem to dislike Clark as well, even calling him a war criminal for civilian deaths in the Kosovo war.

Good for General Shelton - I highly applaud him.

When U.S. planes in the Iraq no-fly zone were attacked, a member of Congress suggested that perhaps "we" could fly a U-2 spy plane so low over Iraq that it could easily get hit. Then we'd have a reason "to kick Saddam out of Iraq." After Shelton responded that he would order that "just as soon as you are qualified to fly (it)," he was not asked again to compromise his office. "Sometimes people in a position of power lose perspective on right and wrong," Shelton said.

This is very disturbing. I want to know what jackass suggested using pilots as bait to start a war. this is the kind of crap the LW conspiracy fruitloops drool over.

What does Clinton have on Clark? Must be big...

...Shelton. "I've known Wes for a long time. I will tell you the reason he came out of Europe early had to do with integrity and character issues, things that are very near and dear to my heart. I'm not going to say whether I'm a Republican or a Democrat. I'll just say Wes won't get my vote."

I searched for this story with the correct headline:

Gen. Shelton shocks Celebrity Forum, says he won't support Clark for president

Would you please use the correct title in the future so those of us that use search can find if it has been posted and not spend time posting it again!

Thanks!

This dovetails beautifully with his views on religious values influencing government.

Bah-humbug Mr.Clark, your roller coaster ride has almost ended.

"That question makes me wish it were vodka," said Shelton. "I've known Wes for a long time.

I'm not going to say whether I'm a Republican or a Democrat. I'll just say Wes won't get my vote."...

GEEZ!! That's a mouthfull!!!

Oh, man, this is just too rich. What a great man. This shows the difference between loosers like KlintonButtKisser Klark and General Shelton. Great comments.
