1. Yes how sweet it is, but are you f#$ing with my head I caught his

fist name David a sad excuse of a reporter even for the Faux ministry of propoganda his last name is "Assman" no way.

If it is he had his Ass handed to him by Clark.

2. oh damn, Clark ripped him a new one
I have never seen a politician stand up to a sniveling media whore like that. That is the voice of liberal anger folks.

FOX has dropped to a new low, if that's even possible. Did he just get promoted from covering the latest hollywood gossip?

3. Awesome simply Awesome
I have been a solid Kucinich supporter, but as the time approaches I am moving toward Clark. Strong Southern Democrat that has the Persuading power of Clinton. I just wanta see Smirk out. (Thats a repetetive statement, considering this is DU)

5. On Of The Few........ like your name

Pink Floyd
On Of The Few

when you're one of the few to land on your feet
what do you do to make ends meet?
teach
make them mad, make them sad, make them add two and two
make them me, make them you, make them do what you want them to
make them laugh, make them cry, make them lie down and die

4. Good for Clark!
I'm glad he stood up to that idiot. Thanks for the link.

As I've said before, though Clark is not my #1 at this point, I would gladly vote for him, should he win the nomination.

27. I had a hideous time with their player too w13rd0
But was unable to download target to my PC and
watch from there. So I had to suffer thru
the player version. Sorry I can't help.

It was worth it to see the smirk disappear from
anchor asshole's face when he realized he was
actually confronting someone with backbone.

It was the best Clark appearance I've seen so far.
I hope he continues to show such backbone.

8. Anger. now that's an interview
This is the first time I've seen anybody interviewed on Fox call them on their complete spin. That Clark is a revered military man enables him to comment on Bush's policy with near complete impunity.

I love right at the end of the interview the interviewer caught himself in a slip of the tongue he said something to the effect of "Thanks general, we look forward to having you back on to explain how to get out of this mess. . . . . . that you say we are in".

10. that little corporate media whore would have been scared in person
amazing how brave a pampered chickenhawk Republican is tucked away in a remote studio behind a camera. I bet this guy never served a day and he's going to accuse Clark of belittling the troops? Is this what corporations can do on our airwaves with impunity?

11. i am sick of this shit!
Tried opening in MAC Netscape Navigator, MAC Internet Explorere, MAC Safari.

This is bloody maddening! If they want you to USE THEIR BROWSER, then why do they make it so you have to be redirected to THEIR page to find PLUG-IN that you don't know what the fuck it is or HOW TO FIND IT, much less IT'S NAME?!

Can anyone help here? Quicktime, fine. Realplayer, fine. Windows Media Player within a browser window. FUCKED!

16. No problem here on my eMac
I just ran the FOX news video on Camino with no problem whatsoever.

I clicked on the options in the FOX News Viewer that opened, chose my Broadboand speed and also checked RealPlayer. I opened RealPlayer and then pressed play in the FOX Viewer. The video played in the FOX news viewer without any problems.

Mine is an 800 MHZ eMac with 1 GB RAM.

14. Change my pitch up...
Good job, General Clark! This is another important shot in the war against the lying liars!

Check out the cocky look on the dude's face though, like he thinks the whole viewership is so brainwashed anyways it doesn't matter. Their hubris will be part of what drags them down.

23. mp3
Edited on Wed Nov-19-03 01:51 AM by RandomUser
http://www.washingtondigital.us/Troops.htm

Someone on DU made an mp3 out of it, and someone else from DU offered to host it. It's near the bottom of the page.

The most amazing thing was that after Clark wrestled control of the interview back from the the Fox guy and savaged him badly for the attempted smear, Clark was gracious. Clark gave him a nice and charming smile towards the end. He was roused and agressive and yet so in controll of his passion and poise at the same time.

This is the man we need at the top of the ticket. He can attack relentlessly and charm at the same time.

After negotiating with 19 NATO countries and face to face with Milosevic, I doubt the rightwingers can scare Clark. He's got the general's fire and a diplomat's charm.

What's most noteworthy is that he has deliberately chosen not to use this fire to bash his fellow Dems. They're making a mistake if they think that means he doesn't have it in him.

That was fantastic. I watched it twice. I thought that it was going to be a Dean/Clark ticket but now i am sure that it has to be a Clarck/Dean ticket. Finally! Someone who won't take any shit from these sniveling liars. Thank you jeezus.
