A Clark Promotional Question
Someone asked in another post if Bush would now qualify as a person who had been in a combat area.

That prompted a question in my mind. Has there been any combat zone on earth that Wesley Clark has not visited in almost 40 years? I mean here is the chimp smirking about 2 secret hours in a mess hall that could have been anywhere on earth for all we really know and as his potential opponent we have a fellow who has been in very war zone in almost the past half century, and I don't mean just for lunch or an overnighter either.

How dare the chimp to once again try to use the military backdrop to his political ends? How dare he!

Thom

God bless Robert Byrd

1. I get sick to my stomach every time I see him in armed service apparel
It's like walking into a hospital and putting on surgeons scrubbs when in reality you had to duck out of anatomy in High School because you fainted durring disection.

Gives me the red ass.

2. exactly
I've never been in the military, but most of my family has, so I find it disgusting that he would use their reputation and popularity among Americans as a prop for his political image.

4. I've been to more places where we're blowing people up than you...

yeah there's a powerful campaign. Maybe Clark can have a slide show of pictures of him standing on mangled bodies and smoking rubble from every place American imperialism has left its mark over the last 30 years.

Way to win the base.

5. Maybe you should take your pacifist view...
and apply it to the candidate you so stronger support. When are you going to get it thru your head that we are at war. We will be at war for some time. We need to stay there and straighten out the mess Bush created.

Dean has ZERO experience in such matters. Clark will do everything possible to speed the process up with the least amount of harm to our troops.

I understand you are making this your talking point to help bolster the credibility of Dean for his own lack of leadership. The rest of America doesn't buy what you are trying to sell. I suggest you try to convince them of this made up, spit out trash you are creating.
