MWO Whore of the Year 2001 Howard Fineman writes:
WORD WAS THAT Karl Rove, the president’s political mastermind, had blocked the idea. Clark was furious. Last January, at a conference in Switzerland, he happened to chat with two prominent Republicans, Colorado Gov. Bill Owens and Marc Holtzman, now president of the University of Denver. “I would have been a Republican,” Clark told them, “if Karl Rove had returned my phone calls.” Soon thereafter, in fact, Clark quit his day job and began seriously planning to enter the presidential race—as a Democrat. Messaging NEWSWEEK by BlackBerry, Clark late last week insisted the remark was a “humorous tweak.” The two others said it was anything but. “He went into detail about his grievances,” Holtzman said. “Clark wasn’t joking. We were really shocked.”
So was four-star General Clark humorously tweaking or not?
The Weekly Standard's Matthew Continetti unwittingly answers the question:
In the current issue of Newsweek, Howard Fineman reports Clark told Colorado Gov. Bill Owens and University of Denver president Mark Holtzman that "I would have been a Republican if Karl Rove had returned my phone calls."
"Howard Fineman reports" should be one's first clue to disregard the information in the article. That his sources were two Republicans should be one's second clue.
Unfortunately for Clark, the White House has logged every incoming phone call since the beginning of the Bush administration in January 2001. At the request of THE DAILY STANDARD, White House staffers went through the logs to check whether Clark had ever called White House political adviser Karl Rove. The general hadn't. What's more, Rove says he doesn't remember ever talking to Clark, either.
Now, if General Clark's comment, which he did not deny making, were not "schtick," why would he make such a remark to two people if he never made calls to be returned, and thus would not be expecting "returned calls"?
It must be because Wesley Clark is a deeply disturbed and delusional man, just like Al Gore.
Poor Wingnuts. They're in a state of utter panic and it isn't becoming. Why can't they be a little more gracious in the face of impending defeat?
