Jesus wept.

Shelton was a Ranger. Something about Wes jumping up the chain of command due to string pulling by the White House must have pissed him off.

The Pristina Airport incident must have told him something. Shelton has some dirt on Clark. I think you'll see him supporting Bush.

Be Seeing You,

Chris

When did Clark graduate from West Point? Wasn't there a BIG scandal at West Point in the 70s with a hundred or so cadets cheating on an engineering exam? (just curious since you bring up - "telling the truth")

Clark graduated at the top of his class at West Point. Hmmmmmm.... coincidence?

In the back of my mind, I'm saying to myself "West Point has an honor code for a reason. The honor code is supposed to identify early those who cheat, lie, or steal, as well as those who tolerate the same. One of the qualities necessary for a successful leader in the military is integrity. You have to be able to trust the guy on the ground saying "drop bombs 100 yards north of yellow smoke"

or the guy who says, "Lt. PokeyJoe moved south in error and cut off the flank, allowing the enemy to engage and kill 25 soldiers before we could bring reserves into the scrap. It's his fault"

Or the guy who orders a British General to parachute onto an airfield controlled by Russians - and he wonders why his order is disobeyed.

Integrity and Character issues.

Clinton and Clark.

Both related in some way to the other. No wonder Clinton wants Clark as her running mate. She has "goods" on him and she thinks that she can control him.
