WES CLARK says Republican 'values' are only about SEX

[FrenchieCat]

Soundbytes from General Clark's speech as he stumped for Virginia Governorial Candidate, Tom "raising" Kaine, this past Tuesday.

*"Republican 'values' are only about SEX."
But Jesus said, 'Love thy neighbor as thyself,
so the Republicans are wrong,
"it's not about sex it's about LOVE."

*"Democrats have been stereotyped" for too long. We need to remind people that Gordon Gecko (from the movie "Wall Street") "epitomizes the values of the Republican Party - Greed is Good!"

*"Republicans really believe that the best government is the least possible government.
Democrats believe in equal opportunity," and that "government should do its duty to help people who can't help themselves."
*The Bush Administration's pathetic response to Hurricane Katrina epitomizes this contrast between the Democrats and Republicans.

*"The idea that you can take from the public to give to the wealthy is detracting from America."

*"We're in a real struggle now...we have to stand up for who we really are as Democrats. We've got a great record. We need to stand up and shout it out!"

1. Go Gen. Clark

I supported him in the primaries last year.

[blm]

2. That's good. I really love how they're all out there stumping away for all

the candidates.

I think they all decided last year to do everything they can to turn back this GOP cabal. None of the primary candidates take snipes at each other, and instead, all work in different yet similar ways to keep the pressure on BushInc in every way they can.

[FrenchieCat]

4. Not only are those soundbytes good....clear....and puts the GOP

on the defensive.....they are sooooo true!

"Greed is Good" is a definite Republicanism desease!
Sex as the true 'value' that the GOP are concerned about is oh soooo true!

I'm loving the reframing that's going on in Clark's many speeches! He's gonna show us what those GOP assholes really stand for!

[Crunchy Frog]

3. It really is all about SEX with the Repukes isn't it.

I would like to see that become a major Democratic talking point, that the repukes have an unhealthy obsession with sex. Point it out and ridicule it, every time they go on and on about sodomy, or about girls messing around in high school bathrooms, or about man on dog or man on turtle.

Drive home to the people that Republicans are sex obsessed perverts.

Nice to see somebody getting really agressive with these punks.

[BeFree]

21. They are obsessed with SEX

So many pukes told me they wanted to vote Kerry but homos made them vote for b**h.

So many times their arguments center around sexual matters; it's as if they want the government peeking into their bedrooms.

[FreedomAngel82]

38. Ugh

And why is that any of their business? You should've asked them if they would like the secret service peeking into their bedrooms.

[FreedomAngel82]

37. Yep

All they ever talk is abortion or gay people. What else do they have to offer people? What do they have to offer me? I'm not gay and I'm not against gay people and I'm not having sex or planning a family any soon and I'm not against choice, so what do they have to offer me? Fear? No thanks.

[BlueJac]

5. Clark 2008

[Gloria]

7. Agreed. A breath of fresh air.....

eom

[Gemini Cat]

14. Clark in 2008? YES!!

I like it very much!!

[The Donkey]

23. 2008?

Let's follow Bill Maher's suggestion and recall the Pres now! Then we can start the "Clark 2006" drumbeat.

I'd rather have him in office sooner than later.

[FrenchieCat]

6. Plus Clark is so positive about what Democrats have to offer

*"We're in a real struggle now...we have to stand up for who we really are as Democrats. We've got a great record. We need to stand up and shout it out!"

You've got to love that!

[FreedomAngel82]

39. There are other democrats hon

What else does Clark have to offer except his military record? There ar tons of other democrats out there too hon.

[otohara]

42. Hon?

offer us some names. What's with this hon business?

[FrenchieCat]

47. It's OK about the "hon" thing...since this is a "sex" thread! So do tell,

What other leading Democrat was a 4 star general who planned, led the last war that we won without losing a single US troop six years ago?

What other leading Democrat lost his job for insisting that Boots on the ground would avert civilian deaths in Kosovo?

What other leading Democrat was shot 4 times in Vietnam and almost lost his life and stayed in the military?

What other Leading Democrat is the most decorated Officer since Einsenhower?

What other leading Democrat has been all three; knighted by England and has received the Legion D'honor by the French Foreign Legion and the Presidential Medal of Honor by the U.S.?

What other leading Democrat stated that he would kick the living shit out of anyone who try to call him unpatriotic or go after his military record?

What other leading Democrat was screaming and encouraging involvment in Rwanda, when 800,000 where being machete to death?

What other leading Democrat is keeping Darfur and Haiti issues in the current news?

What other leading Democrat currently works with James Witt in the in Emergency Prepardness business due to his expertise?

What other leading Democrat recently went around the country BEFORE Katrina hit talking like this...
Today, General Wesley Clark underscored the immediate need to address these issues, "It's imperative to expand the dialogue about interoperable communications among public safety officials. It's at the very core of emergency preparedness."

Which Leading Democrat spoke out BEFORE Wes Clark against George Bush's handling of Katrina?

What other leading Democrat received a masters from Oxford in Economics, Politics and Ethics.

What other leading Democrat predicted exactly how Iraq would turn out if we invaded back in 2002 and testified to such in front of both houses of congress and was quoted by Wellstone in his Iraq Senate floor speech prior to voting NAY?

What other leading Democrat offered a tax plan reminiscent of an old fashion Democrat opting out of the Dem Corporatist "Tax Credit" weak solutions normally offered by today's Democrats?

What other Leading Democrat speaks Spanish, Russian, German and English?

What other Democrat moved 31 times while serving his country?

What other Democrat made under $82,000 until he retired at the age of 55?

What other leading Democrat was stating 3 days after 9/11 that....
For the United States, the weapons of this war should be information, law enforcement and, on rare occasions, active military
forces.

No vast military deployments should be anticipated.

Our objective should be neither revenge nor retaliation...

The aim should be to attack not buildings and facilities but the people who have masterminded, coordinated, supported and executed these and other terrorist attacks.

Our methods should rely first on domestic and international law, and the support and active participation of our friends and allies around the globe.

Evidence must be collected, networks uncovered and a faceless threat given shape and identity.

In some cases, astute police work will win the day, here and abroad. In other cases, international intelligence collaboration may be necessary. Special military forces may be called on to operate in states that are uncooperative or simply unable to control their own territory.

In exceptional cases, targets will be developed that may be handled by conventional military strikes.

But in the main, this will be arduous, detailed and often covert work to track, detain or otherwise engage and "take down" our adversaries, rolling them up cell by cell and headquarters by headquarters.

Some will call for full disclosure and near-legal standards of evidence before acting. Others will arm a hair trigger, seeking to use the most readily available information, even if scant. But we must not pose legality and expediency as opposite extremes.

To be expedient, we must act within the bounds of international law and consistent with consensus among the allied coalition that is emerging. And maintaining this consensus will be one of the prime challenges we face.

We must strengthen our protective measures at airports, at utilities and other public service facilities such as communications networks, and prepare necessary public health and disease control capabilities http://wesleyclark.h1.ru/usa_attack1.htm

Please tell me which other Leading Democrat?

I have more....but I'm out of breath. :hi:

[abluelady]

8. Short Soundbites Are What We Need

We don't have to get involved with dirty politics like they do. But we do need an answer for every lie--just a short soundbite can do it every time.

[FrenchieCat]

9. Yes....I agree that the "Senate Speak"....just ain't gettin' it

for us Democrats!

Need a little bit of Shoutin' going round!

[FreedomAngel82]

40. Sad but true

People have been used to sound bites for the last few years which really gets on my nerves personally. I like to be challenged and educated. I want someone who is smart representing me. Not someone "I can have a beer with". I would like to have a drink with someone who I can talk to and truly understands and knows how to fix a problem without poll numbers.

[MissMarple]

45. Well, all they seem to talk about is sex and money.

And power, there is the more power for George thing going on. Republicans, what are they good for? Sex, money, power and oh, yes, tax cuts. And, there we are directly back to money. And did I mention the gay sex? That really drives them crazy. :crazy:

[bluedawg12]

10. Great point from the General!

Someone's star is rising??? :)

[faithnotgreed]

11. cant argue with that truth

[FrenchieCat]

12. Kick!

for the "sexier" night crowd!

[snowbear]

13. Frenchie... Frenchie.... Frenchie....

You know better than putting "General Clark" and "Sex" in the same sentence!



LOL! ~~ :P :P :P :P

[FrenchieCat]

15. oops! I forgot......

Doggone it! What Have I gone and Done?

So shoot me! :rofl:

[Jade Fox]

16. Yup. And they're agin it.

George is moral cause he doesn't screw around. Anymore.

[imperial jedi]

17. Clark in 2008? emphatically yes!!

n/t

[ladylibertee]

18. YEAH, what he said

[Bassic]

19. This guy really looks like a good presidential candidate

IMO at least.

[truebrit71]

20. This man just keeps getting better and better...He's the ONLY Democrat...

..to call it like it is....

I supported him in 2004, and will re-double my efforts in 2008, America NEEDS General Clark...

[phylla]

22. And I will re-double your re-double! Open your eyes Democrats!

[Adelante]

24. Frenchie, you sure do know how to write a headline

:D

[BootinUp]

25. The truth will hurt!!!

Awesome thread Frenchie!!! :hi:

[Cha]

26. We Do have a Good Record..

And if the country's airwaves weren't filled with lying hate mongers like oxyrush limpbaugh and lying toad heads like woof blitzer.. that seem to suck Americans' brains from them..we wouldn't have to run from the word "Liberal".

I thank Wes Clark for getting this message out!

OT..Is Clark still on fauxsux?

[Adelante]

29. Tomorrow night 10PM, zidzi nt

[FrenchieCat]

30. Apparently so....although they are now totally scared to ask him anything.

Notice that although he works with Witt and just gave a Communications Emergency Preparedness speech not too long before Katrina struck, is part of Clinton's Global Warming Initiative, and has been very vocal on alternative plans to correct the course in Iraq....they ain't had him on SINCE the Hurricane.

They must be shaking in their ChickenHawk boots that Clark might lower those Bush approval numbers even lower than they are.

Fox doesn't want to have to deal with such an additional "complication" to mess up their current rehabilitation of Bush the Disaster.

[Cha]

31. Never has fascist news corp

ANYWHERE At ANY time in History had to cover up so much Shite from one regime.

I don't see fauxsux, either, asking Clark about Katrina recovery efforts under James Lee Witt!

How can it not be obvious that the grownups have to be in Charge, NOW?!!

[FreedomAngel82]

43. I remember one time

hearing how Clark was talking to O'Reilly about something dealing with the military and O'Reilly tried to tell Clark, a four star general, he was wrong. :eyes: Wasn't Clark involved with Kosovo?

[FreedomAngel82]

41. Yep

We ruled most of the twentith century. What political party sent a man to outer space? What political party got us through WW2? What political party got us through the Great Depression? What political party helped bring electricity to the south (TVA)? What political party created the greatest surplus in our countries history? Howard Dean pointed this out when he was inuagurated in as DNC chairman. He said that only twice in our countries history has there been a surplus in the budget. Andrew Jackson and Bill Clinton: two democrats. We should remind people of who knows how to govern nationally and who sucks at it.

[dchill]

27. Clark is right -

The political power is just an aphrodisiac.

[Dinger]

28. Understatement: It's A Real Goddamn Shame he Isn't Our President

The whole world would be a different place. I still drool at the thought of him debating against the giggling murderer.

[nvliberal]

32. The GOP has nothing to do with sex

or any of those other phony "moral issues."

As anybody knows, those are ways to get the middle and working classes to support a party which is against their economic interests by diverting their attention.

The radical right of the GOP is all about greed as the highest virtue and anything and anybody standing in the way of that pursuit is to be dismantled and destroyed.

[FreedomAngel82]

44. Exactly

If you haven't there is this great documentary that shows how Karl Rove has used the religion factor to gain votes. I think it was "With God on Our Side" and it shows how Bush once told how he became a Christian and Rove saw the reaction(s) and from then on he used it as a least resort to gain votes. They will never get rid of Roe V Wade nor do anything about or for gay marriage because what else would they have to talk about? In the movie the "Architect" this also shows that. If you haven't seen the film go to http://www.pbs.org and you can see it there.
It shows how they used the gay marriage ordeal with Ann Richards and John McCain and then John Kerry. But all the while he has a vice president who has a gay daughter. :eyes: Remember that phony stunt they did after the third debate but yet when Edwards said something in the vp debate they didn't do anything? It's all just for PR and to win votes.

[Independent_Liberal]

33. Right on Clark!

You're on the money once again!

[xkenx]

34. NOT SINCE BOBBY KENNEDY

have I been so inspired by a public figure as I have been by Wes Clark. Dems. who haven't discovered this national treasure should look around and read up. Then go to work.

[faithfulcitizen]

35. God, I love this guy...So true.

[FreedomAngel82]

36. So true

If people don't realize that now they never will. The republican controlled government only got out to help when they saw their poll numbers. All the other days was Bush out having fun and Cheney mansion shopping.

[babsbunny]

46. Can I get an Amen????????

:headbang:

[Texas_Kat]

49. I'll give you an AMEN!

And a Hallelujah! and a little :applause:

[FrenchieCat]

50. Makes me want to stand up and shout!

[Serial Mom]

48. I could vote for him ....

Any Dem really, but at least somebody who can speak out in a strong, sensible, honest manner.

There are other good Dems, but we have to shout out what we believe!

Congressiional Dems have got to stop worrying about how the repuke base will portray them - they lie no matter what, so SPEAK UP FOR WHAT YOU BELIEVE!

[Larkspur]

51. Took clark long enough to figure that out.

Good of him to start paying attention to Repuke rhetoric.

[Schema Thing]

52. wtf?

Please use the restroom to take your dump.

[Adelante]

53. Nonsense

As usual.

[OnionPatch]

54. He is so right!

He comes out and says it like it is. I love this guy! I hope he ends up pres or vice pres in 08.
