All Clark is saying

is give peace a chance.

Some people around here seem to have forgotten the true meaning of the word "liberal," so here it is.

"I am a liberal. We live in a liberal democracy.... You know, this country was founded on the principals of the Enlightenment.... It was the idea that people could talk, reason, have dialogue, discuss the issues. It wasn't founded on the idea that someone would get stuck by a divine inspiration and know everything right from wrong. I mean, people who founded this country had religion, they had strong beliefs, but they believed in reason, in dialogue, in civil discourse. We can’t lose that in this country. We've got to get it back." -Wes Clark on Bill Maher

We can't lose that in our world, either. We've got to get it back.

That is all.
