Did anyone read this Clark speech from last week?

[ShaneGR]

Just wondering, he says some very interesting things. Check it out at:

(snip)

"The current Administration has taken our country badly off-course," General Clark said. "It is violating longstanding values and principles of American democracy - with dire consequences for our security. Its treatment of our allies; its headlong rush to war; its poor planning of post-conflict Iraq is costing America hundreds of lives and hundreds of billions of dollars. And its handling of intelligence-and its retaliation against its critics - may have been criminal.

"The possible manipulation of intelligence should be investigated by an outside body of experts with impeccable credentials and unquestioned integrity. The possible leak of the name of a covert CIA operative should be thoroughly and comprehensively investigated by an independent counsel."

General Clark also said that the country faces a crisis at home and abroad because of the Administration's irresponsible approach.

"I am running for President of the United States because I believe the country is in a crisis," he said. "We're in a crisis at home with rising poverty, dropping incomes, exploding numbers of uninsured, the worst job losses in 70 years, and the worst budget deficit in American history.

"We are in a crisis in our relations with the rest of the world," the General added. "Today at a time when we need friends and allies more than ever, resentment of America has never been higher, and that makes every American less safe at home and abroad."

1. I like the mention of the CIA

and the call for an independent councel. The more that is mentioned, the better chance we have of it actually happening.

>>>>>We must have an independent, comprehensive public investigation into the Administration's handling of intelligence leading to the war in Iraq," Clark said. "Nothing could be a more serious violation of public trust than to consciously make a war based on false claims. We need to know if we were intentionally deceived.<<<<<

Excellent! Keep it turned on General Clark!

3. Coincidentally, then the FEC claims came about...

They got the FEC story out there. Then the FEC said they had no proof that he had violated any laws. But by that time of course, the story was already out there.

4. Thanks for the post n/t

5. I threw up

after reading it. Does that jackass ever stop his platitudes and offer any solutions other than "Im not Bush?" We know what problems are facing America, Nostradamus....

6. Relax....

We know you are afraid of the threat
Clark poses to your candidate. You don't
have to keep proving it all the time.

9. Who do you support?

I would hardly agree with your generalized characterization of Clark, his positions and speeches have been anything but just "I'm not Bush." But you wouldn't know that, because you haven't bothered to read them.

Anyways, who do you support?

10. Have some Pepto Bismol

and do some homework. Clark is offering more than platitudes, not that you would be bothered to check them out.

7. Why did he release this in the middle of "Arnold" hoopla?

this story got completely lost in the noise.

Maybe that's why he got rid of the campaign manager.

REALLY bad timing. Should have been a HUGE STORY.
