10. I thought I was hearing things!

Good, my hearing is intact.

BTW....I was impressed by Clark today. I'm still loyal to my candidate of choice but Clark was very, very good. I would campaign for him very seriously if he wins the nomination with zero hard feelings.

[aQuArius]

11. Yes, Clark was very well spoken....

However, when Russert asked what would be happening a year from now, I was hoping he would say, "The President's impeachment trial will be starting..."

[Inspired]

12. True!

He could have hit harder but he was very good.

13. Transcript is up from Russert's Interview with the Generals

This the transcript and I read Tim's responses and DID NOT find him talking about Iran. Maybe I missed something but I was REALLY careful to make sure he didn't start talking about INVADING IRAN.

Mr. Tim Russert: Our issues this Sunday: Iraq, political violence and deaths surge. This morning, an announcement of a draft constitution, but will all sides accept the document? And a majority of Americans now say the war was a mistake as demonstrations build at home. With us, the U.S. ambassador to Iraq, Zalmay Khalilzad.

Then insights and analysis from four retired military generals: General Wesley Clark, former NATO Supreme Allied commander, Europe; General Wayne Downing, former commander in chief of the U.S. Special Operations Command; General Barry McCaffrey, former commander in chief of the U.S. Southern Command; and General Montgomery Meigs, former commander of the NATO Stabilization Force. The war in Iraq, where do we go from here?
