Newsmax Pretends Clark's joke about Delay (on Maher) was serious!!! [View All]

[Sparkly]

When General Clark joked that Delay shouldn't be allowed to play golf, I actually SAID "they'll add this to the list -- like Al Gore's lullabye and Clark registering Democrat because Rove didn't return his phone calls. They'll now say Clark wants to ban Delay from playing golf."

I was half kidding. But sure enough, they're doing it. From newsmax:

Gen. Clark Urges Golf Ban for DeLay

The campaign against House Majority Leader Tom DeLay reached new heights of hysteria last week, with former Democratic presidential candidate Gen. Wesley Clark urging that the top Republican be banned from playing golf.

"I like golf," Clark told HBO's "Real Time" host Bill Maher. "And I'm sorry that Tom DeLay plays golf." Then the one-time top military man went off the deep end.

"I think that people who are charged with ethics violations in Congress should be prohibited from playing golf," he told Maher.

Why?

"Because if you can't trust them in Congress, how can you trust their score on a golf course?" Clark explained.
