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.

Oops. Looks like I cut and pasted the wrong quote. This is the quote from the NY Times article:

"I find him to be a guy who's very clever at determining which way the wind's blowing," said Gen. Paul Funk, who was General Clark's boss in the early 1990's. "Who knows, maybe in the political world that's a good thing."

Bingo. Paul Funk and Hugh Shelton are both straight shooters. The anecdotal evidence to his true nature is only beginning to surface. Those who worked side by side with him during his days in uniform will come forward in increasing numbers over the next few months and continue to expose him for the Arkansas grifter that he is.

And since the POTUS is in charge of the military, folks who don't like him may leave evidence of wrongdoing laying about for the public to find...

He was probably talking about Kosovo. Clark was going public (to the media) about his disagreement with Sec. of Defense Cohen regarding ground troops. Cohen fired him.
