"I agree" posts suck. To answer your question - you can find the team name hidden in this phrase: useless loser scrubs
like having everyone call you a republican, having praised dubya and Rumsfeld, etc? In the Democratic party, that's a serious knock, I think
You missed a couple of things about Clark: "His reputation as a "gadfly, with an independence streak-some say arrogance-inappropriate for an Army officer" Being photographed exchanging caps with a general indicted on war crimes charges. Persisting in "seeking a ground campaign to go with bombing long after he was told no (by superiors)" in Kosovo That the Army "planned to end Clark's career, nominating someone else...But Def. Sec. Perry and Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Shalikashvilli intervened." "...but despite the victory (Yugoslav capitulation), bad feeling toward Clark lingered- even into the current administration and Pentagon leadership." (so he pissed of both parties)
Not this crapola again. This is rather equivalent to bashing Churchill for entreating with Hitler in 1939. The general in question was not even indicted at that point in time... But, I thought the knock on him was he wasn't willing to commit ground troops? Gosh, keeping up with the lie du jour that's supposed to be taken as gospel truth is getting so ... confusing. And - I swear to some god almighty - if anybody brings up that stupid "he tried to start WWIII by attacking the Russians" crap again they are going straight on my ignore list. Trying to occupy an airfield before someone else can get there - ie, not rolling over to their aggressiveness - is not trying to start WWIII.
You know this thread started with a title about Clark releasing his military records but ignored the negatives which were in an article in a national newspaper. I simply produced the rest of this story which is ignored by liberals. I apologise for presenting facts without spin.
No he wasn't, but he know what was going on and we knew he knew. Besides, we keep seeing that pic of Rummy with Saddam so what's the difference between the two?
That is the problem with Clark. He might do well with the mainstream democrat, but not with the extreme liberals that dominate the primary season, who are motivated more by their hatred of Republicans than by anything positive that Clark may have to offer. And even mainstream democrats can understandably question Clark's motivations for joining their party at the last moment. This kind of last minute conversion is like a 'Paris is worth a mass' sort of thing.
BAHAHAHAHA! hasn't every website that hosts this picture blown it's bandwith due to left wing cronies continually using it to inflate their points on BS?
Well thanks for informing us that the Palestinians are officially our enemy. We can always count on you.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Wesley Clark releases military file I'm talking about SpecOps units. It's been known that a few were operating in the area during the confict. Obvious more should've been sent. Better to do that than waste ammo on targets found on a 50 cent Esso Road Map.
There you go, speaking for your head lice again. You think it's just BARELY possible I might have been referring to Arafat smiling next to an Israeli? How about this one? I'm surprised Sharon didn't stick a knife in him then and there:
Saturday, Oct. 18, 2003 About Face Another videotape has emerged in the Wesley K. Clark collection of kind words for the Bush administration. By MICHAEL WEISSKOPF From Day One as a Democratic presidential candidate, Wesley K. Clark, the retired general, has had to defend his past praise of the president's national security advisers—some of those compliments coming in a speech Clark gave at a GOP fundraising dinner in Little Rock in May, 2001. At that event, he singled out top officials from Vice President Cheney to Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld, calling them a "great team" and saying that "we need them there." Those remarks raised the hackles of Clark's rivals for the party's nomination, veteran Democrats who questioned whether Clark—who says he voted for Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan—is a closet Republican who changed political stripes out of opportunism. Clark says at the time of that speech he had quiet doubts about Bush's team, but wanted it to succeed. "I still could have hope in early 2001 that this administration would learn its lessons," he said at a recent Democratic candidate debate in Phoenix, Arizona. But another Clark speech recorded by videotape suggests that his hope wasn't snuffed out too quickly. Eight months later, even as some administration officials were making the case for war against Iraq, Clark still applauded the U.S. mission in Afghanistan as he addressed a large audience at Harding University, in Searcy, Arkansas. "I tremendously admire, and I think we all should, the great work done by our commander-in-chief, our president, George Bush," he said in the January 22, 2002 speech. The university provided TIME a videotape of his remarks.
Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Wesley Clark releases military file read something on it...ground troops were made at much higher levels of government. apparently you like the military ignoring the commands of its civilian leadership?
Well "accidentally" bombing the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade was pretty cool. Clark might be on the receiving end of less right-wing vitriol were he not going all "John Anderson" on us.
That was Clark? Oh, cool! I seriously, honest to God love that we did that. "Oh, that was yours? Gosh, we're sorry. It's just that, we've got all these bombs, and sometimes, well, they just happen to hit the wrong target, you understand what I'm saying? Do give our regards to your lovely family."
