165. what obnoxious hyperbole
Edited on Sun Oct-14-07 10:19 PM by Jim4Wes
Many times in the past someone like you has claimed Clark supporters are awed by the stars of a General and of course there is no really good reason to support him or listen to his advice.

The thing is the last time I heard much of those kind of attacks against Clark supporters was back 4 years ago. You would think that some of the work he has done since then in helping Democrats win the house in '06 and being on the committee of vote vets, speaking out against Bush's policies, Liebermans Iran rants etc, soliciting supporting for stopiranwar.com would be enough so you could at least acknowledge we don't back an empty suit with 4 stars.

Clark is one of the hardest working people supporting Democrats and a saner foreign policy for this country, I wonder what more he would have to do to have you acknowledge it?

So he decided Hillary was the right person for him to support, you disagree, you charge it is for personal political gain. I think we need someone in the Administration with Clarks knowledge and record of accomplishment. So I sure do hope Hillary listens to his advice and that he has some impact on her decisions. Just like Zinni, Clark spoke out in 2002 warning against unilateral action in Iraq, and that is the reason you were treated a little rough below, because you won't even acknowledge that apparently. You read from some other "book on Clark" than the rest of us and the a whole lot of other Democrats thats for sure.

You attack Clark, McGovern, and anyone else that supports Hillary, no matter their creds or their record. As I said below it is you who are the political animal that spins for Hillary, its just that the product of your spin is negative unreasonable crap against anyone who backs her.
