1. Thanks for posting this

It was wonderful to see Clark call that Faux guy on his misrepresentation of his statement.

[BlueEyedSon]

2. The Faux guy has an such an idiotic grin. nt

[robbedvoter]

26. His name is Asman - really. One "S" is out - for spinning.

[drfemoe]

3. Clark was right about this

how can that 'reporter' lie so blatantly? He DID exactly what Clark saw right through. and so patronizing
.. come back 'when you're not so upset' .. my ex m-i-l used that one on me once! B*tches ..

[robbedvoter]

4. The best Faux smackdown since Al Franken!

I promise you - no matter whom you support, you'll enjoy this. Faux tried to accuse Clark of trivializing the sacrifices of the soldiers in Iraq by calling the war in Iraq a sideshow to the war on terrorism (yesterday, Meet the Tim). I can only say - this is the last time they'll try something like this on Clark!
We call him general Smackdown now.

[Dr Fate]

6. Bush/media keeps forgetting that Clark is a scholar & strategist

and he could probably beat any of Bush/media's "journalist" at any form of Chess- be it debate or the actual game itself.

Chickenhawk Bush-loving journalist trying to spar with a scholar and expert strategist- I almost feel sorry for them!!!

[Kahuna]

13. That was the silliest thing I've ever seen in my life...

Clark kicked so much GOP butt with their talking points on MTP yesterday, they have nothing left. I love it.

[Kahuna]

10. If that's the best the repukes can glean from Clark's MTP

appearance, then Clark certainly did hit a grand slam home run yesterday. This crap was weak as hell.

Asshole commentator:

So General Clark.. You made a mistake when you said Iraq was a sideshow... How can you attack the president while men and women are dying in Iraq.

Clark: :wtf: I'll drive over to that studio right now and put my foot so far up your ass, it will take a doctor to get it out..

[Lefta Dissenter]

5. what the heck

I've tried several times, and all I get is the first two seconds of the into, then it switches to an ad for O'Leilly hosting two sluts... I mean Bond girls, to give the inside scoop on making bond movies.

Does someone have the Clark video saved someplace else that I can go to try to watch it? I'm SOOOOooo frustrated!!!!! :argh:

Thanks!

[Stuckinthebush]

7. Oh my god!

I love that guy!

He kicked Fox's ass!

What kind of BS question was that anyway? Good for Clark!

[jayfish]

8. Absolutely Fantastic And It Hasn't Been Just Clark.

I've just recently seen Carl Levin and Ted Kennedy do the same. The best part is the the General was smiling the whole time. He knew he was hammering'em These examples send a strong message to other Democrats: Leave the pink tutu’s at home.

9. General SMACKDOWN at ur service!

[RamboLiberal]

11. Beautiful - what a smackdown of that Faux media whore

trying to play the game that to criticize AWOL's war is to demean the troops. I loved it.

Who was the the Faux whore? David ?

That was great - and they say Dean has a temper! Whew, about time we have some Dems who have shed the pink tutus.

I noted Talking Points by JMM has it up on his site.

Before they take it down, go to this page on the Fox News website. Then scroll down to the link with Wes Clark's picture and the caption "Setting the Record Straight."

It's a six or seven minute clip. But it's worth watching through. The Fox host tries the same old mumbo-jumbo on Clark and Clark goes ballistic and doesn't back down. Good for him.

12. That was awesome

Clark finally showed some fire in his speech. The best thing for Clark would be to know when to 'unleash the Beast' on Bush when its debate time.

[Lefta Dissenter]

14. WILL SOMEONE HELP ME!?!?!?!

I can't get the video, and I'm going to scream. Of course, I have a 56k slodem, but I get the stupid O'Leilly commercial just fine, just not the Clark interview!!! HHHHEEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPP

:argh:

[TacticalPeek]

16. My cable cnxn was also 'chunky'.

It comes to your browser cache in 4 or 5 big chunks, 20 or so meg; its very start/stop until they are all there, then starts over more smoothly.

But, boy, is it WORTH it.

I can see why poor Dave does not choose to "go through that territory again".

:evilgrin:

[Mika]

17. Just let it play - the O'really part is a promo

After the promo it switches to the interview.

[Lefta Dissenter]

18. I've left it connected for an hour now

and it still won't play! The little 'slide' just goes back to the beginning, the play button lights back up, and if I hit it, it plays the g.d. commercial again for O'Leilly and his sluts.

21. Try this, thanks to Bleachers7...

[MidwestTransplant]

15. Nice!

[childslibrarian]

19. Wow!

That was great! I guess he can really stand up to the faux guys!!

[dobak]

20. Wow!

He attacked the Faux reporter who tried to use his words against him

go Clark!

[rumguy]

22. WHAT WAS SAID??

I can't get the video to come up on my mac and I have windows media player....

So what were the highlights, etc???

[robbedvoter]

25. Asman (real name) tryed to entrap Clark with the "support the troops"

thingy. They zeroed on a sentence from MTP: "Iraq war is a side show to the war on terrorism" (Clark said).
They tried to spin it as Clark's contempt for the dying troops.
He smacked him down essentially shaming him "how dare you say that to me" and saying: "The troops did their duty" and the responsibility for the mess belongs to bush. He yelled the assman down! In the end Assman was panting like a puppy trying to make nice.

[frank frankly]

23. awesome awesome awesome

way to go, Wes!!!

those Faux bastards are going hear from us now!

[robbedvoter]

24. Josh Marshall liked it too

[grubstreet]

27. I'm still smiling!

That was great! Finally someone who can call those idiots on this foolishness. Between that and Meet the Press, Clark has had a great couple of days. Look for this to hit blogland hard, too.

--grub

[DemNoir]

28. Clark is rising

After yesterdays Meet the Press and this thing on Fox, I may be ready to jump on the Clark bandwagon. I have been waiting years for a Dem that can handle the media.

[frank frankly]

29. kick

:kick:

[R3dD0g]

30. Been Trying All Night

I still can't get it and I have cable broadband with the best cpu / memory combination you can buy.

It keeps running back to the faux promos. I think that is faux' default when their connection is full. I can't stand to sit through hours of their promos to listen to Clark kick the crap out of faux.

Does anyone have the clip?

[mikehiggins]

31. Clip is gone

Unless somebody managed to clip it themselves, the clip dealing with Asnan and Clark is gone from view.

FAUX News (the WWE of journalism) apparently didn't like seeing themselves made fools of. You'd think they'd be used to it by now.

Britt Hume and his collection of whores did discuss it, and seemed shocked and puzzled at Clark's response. Go figure!

Does anyone have a bootleg copy of this classic confrontation?

[Repocrat]

32. Still there

Here's a direct link http://www.foxnews.com/video2/player.html?4908&FOX_News_Live&Setting%20the%20Record%20Straight&wvx-300

[newyawker99]

37. Hi Repocrat!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[0007]

39. Thank you my friend -

I enjoyed watched Clark kick that guy's butt.

I hate FOX news.

[Kat45]

45. I can't get the clip.

It tells me I need a plug-in, but when it goes to the download page, all they have are whole versions of Windows Media Player (which I have), so I have no idea what 'plug-in' they are talking about. I wanna see the video, and I can't. :-(

[VolcanoJen]

53. Thanks for the working link, Repocrat!!!

Just finished watching, and I'm more in love with the Clark candidacy today than at any other time.

It's taken far, far too long for us to have a Democrat who isn't about to put up with the pro-right hyperbole. Clark truly showed them the man he is, with the credentials to back it up.

"Don't you DARE equate my criticism of the mission with a hatred of the troops! I have dedicated 37 (?) years of my life to those brave men and women."

Simply perfection. Clark kicks ass!!!!

[L.A.dweller]

33. Clip isn't working

hopefully some computer wiz can pull through.
:kick:

[L.A.dweller]

35. Nevermind.

The link provided above is working.
Damn, the General is straight to the point no chaser needed.

[newyawker99]

36. Hi pmn!!

Welcome to DU!! :toast:

[PBinOregon]

34. Well Done, General!

I am an avid Dean supporter, and I have to say that watching that clip was delightful.

It is so great to see candidates speaking out! Go after these Fox guys, call them on what they are doing, it's fantastic.

Great job, Wesley Clark.

I believe Dean will be our nominee, and I believe Clark will be part of the administration--as well as the effort to bring us to victory.

Heck, I can even imagine Dick Gephardt as Sec. of Labor...

[0007]

38. Waaaaaaaaaaaa

Couldn't find the Clark interview on video - Did I over look it or is it gone?

[PapaClay]

40. 'Bout damn time...

somebody fired on Faux. I don't imagine ol' bully-boy O'Reilly will be telling the General to shut up.

:evilgrin:

[Pale_Rider]

41. OUTSTANDING!

... Clark ripping the little peckerwood's nuts right off.

On edit: I would love to see Clark go after the other peckerwood's (Bush's) nuts on a debate.

[ithacan]

42. OMFG!!!

I never watch fox so this was amazing to me.

What a f***ing a**hole that fox guy was.

This is a perfect example of fascist "journalism"!!!

Clark did great. I'm not one to be "patriotic" but his response actually brought tears to my eyes.

This was excellent. We need more people to stand up to the fascist bullies at the Fox propaganda network!!

[RetroLounge]

43. That was amazing!

Clark kicked so GOP Repug Faux News ass!

He was great!

Now EVERY Democrat that goes on Faux has to do the same thing. Smackdown on every show, every day...

[ethimtemp]

44. Clark put his boot up that quasi-reporters butt!

I loved every second of that clip!

Clark basically put his muddy army boot up Asman's ass! It's
about time someone besides Dean started spitting fire and
venom at the opposition !

[Nlighten1]

46. "You are playing politics with the men and women in uniform!"

huuuuuu-fucking-waaaaah General Clark.

Fix bayonets!

[Myra]

47. Dammit! I get a different video on that link!

It looks like they switched videos.
I get one about police sloppynes...

Does anyone have the link where I can still
see the General kick some media whore ass?

I *really* want to see it.
Please...

[neuvocat]

49. Its up.

I'm watching it right now. Again.

:D

[Myra]

50. Ok, I'm gonna try this again. Would someone supply a working link?1

Please and thank you.

When I click on http://www.foxnews.com/access/video.html
I get an (ick) Faux news(peak) page with video links,
but none to the General Clark interview.

[drfemoe]

51. Direct feed

wear your slime protective gear.

[drfemoe]

52. that's the commercial ..

.n/t

[David Zephyr]

48. Wow! This Interview is Quantum. It is a Watershed Event.

Wow!

[VolcanoJen]

54. Not LBN... locking.

I'm sure Clark-fans and non-Clark-fans alike have enjoyed watching this video. However, as earth-shattering as the video was (Democrat Lays the Smack Down on Fox News!!) it never really qualified for the LBN Forum.

There's a boisterous, and lengthy, discussion about Clark's Fox News appearence raging in the General Discussion Forum; please continue the discussion here:
