Wes Clark to respond to Bush tonight on Special Report w/Brit Hume on Fox
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 04:52 PM by ClarkUSA
From WesPAC staff:

***Media Alert***

We have just booked General Clark to respond to the Presidential Address tonight on Special Report with Brit Hume on FOX. We don't have an exact time, we just know he will be on sometime shortly after.

Also--We have rescheduled General Clark with Bill O'Reilly for tomorrow night (Wednesday, June 29th) and he will also appear on FOX News Live tomorrow at 2:20pm EDT.

........

The Fox audience will get some facts for once! Should be fun.

1. Ewww - Brit Hume
that is one Frankenstein son-of-a-gun. He is a mad, mad conservative. Permanently gloomy visage.

6. It would be grand...
Should Gen. Clark be rudely interrupted by Hume or one of the other squawking heads, that he slip into "Drill Instructor" mode and give them the ass reaming they so richly deserve.

I am sure The General, having spent a lifetime in The Army, knows a thing or two about reaming asses and squaring away the boorish.

7. Brit has to hurry and make damn sure he has the usual "stacked deck"
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 05:10 PM by OneTwentyoNine
Of Bush licker pundits that will talk over Clark at every go. I really doubt that Brit"droopy"Hume will be going it alone.

Wes makes them do some push ups after they talk their trash!

There will probably be a small army of chickenhawks ready for a defensive move...and to "interpret" what the * "dimson" was really trying to say....doh!

Better yet....Wes should order them all to have a pie fight....the biggest liar gets the most cream on his face! LOL!

12. I suspect they'll limit Clark's time
And then follow him up with a half-dozen neocon assholes to tell everybody how wrong he is.

Not many of 'em are willing to tell him to his face.

16. May Clark last until the 2006 elections so he can help w/crossover vote
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 07:19 PM by ClarkUSA
We need to get back some seats in Congress with Diebold/ES&S-proof margins of victory and I know Wes Clark will try his damndest to help the Democratic Party accomplish this goal.

18. thanks for the heads up
Should be interesting. As a cable-less one, I'll have to count on some online commentary somewhere for details.

God bless Wes...the man doesn't take the easy way, does he?

21. Oy..I had to suffer from ten minutes of pro-Bush propaganda to see Wes
come onafter the commercial break. What the hell drugs are these people on, expecting some sort of sea-change of public opinion because of the chimp's speech?

<<What the hell drugs are these people on, expecting some sort of sea-change of public opinion because of the chimp's speech?>>

26. To each their own - some of us can spare a few minutes to hear the truth
And I don't have a Nielsen's box sitting on my TV, so what the hell? :shrug:

Here's an alternative to watching...

28. Well then, is John Kerry enough reason to listen to Larry King show?
Kerry was just on there (clearly a last-minute surprise) for about 10 minutes. He was strong and great!

He's on at the "top" of the show. It should replay in 2 or 3 hours.

25. Exactly the right balance
Edited on Tue Jun-28-05 08:08 PM by Larry in KC
Strongly for the men and women in uniform... in a way that truly conveys that it's sincere, not the Bush puppet show of respect.

Knows his audience, is not rash or aggressive, just frank in his statements about Bush's "elective" war, which had nothing to do with 9/11. Gives the Fox audience some truth to think about without alienating them.

Articulate, cordial, able not simply to read from a teleprompter, but to analyze the question, and answer not just in complete sentences, but in complete, well-constructed and well-thought-out paragraphs.

Is, in a word, presidential.

The contrast could not be more clear.

My Clark '08 bumper stickers should arrive any day, now, by the way. I can't wait!
