4. This is exactly what his position on Iraq boiled down to
and 100% consistent with everything he said. His supporters have been spinning yarns about him being anti-war but Clark's own words in front of the House are the blueprint for everything he said and did afterwards.

I have also noted, with chagrin and amusement, that some of the biggest Clark supporters here were unapologetically pro-war and hawkish when it comes to foreign relations.

This is creepy. Same war. Same number of 'enemy deaths'. Same imperialist push but just better executed and better coordinated.

I wouldn't consider that an improvement. All it would do is make it possible for us to bury our heads in the sand and it would be even worse.

If there's one good thing Bush did, it's that he brought the horror of war front and center and into our living rooms. Clark would manage his just like Clinton did and we'd think the world was fine and peachy keen. God, that's just not good enough.

We can do so much better than that.

Thanks, I'm book-marking this.
