8. I don't watch Faux, and won't, even for a real Dem like Clark .......
That said, the clips I've seen here all seen to have him speaking about foreign policy and military issues. And that's fine. He does a terrific job of slapping down the shills, jesters, clowns, asshats, and assorted hangers on and wannabes that people the anchor chairs at Faux. (The clip of chickenshit/chickenhawk Hannity lecturing him on military tactics was a hoot!)

But I've never seen him turn a conversation to domestic or populist issues. I know what his positions were during the 04 primaries and I know he was as far to the left as any of the serious and credible candidates, except maybe Kucinich. I hope he doesn't allow himself to be percieved as a one trick pony. In my view, he's not. In my view he is at least as good as anyone says he is. But it is a matter of perception, and as I see it, he's being percieved as a former general. And while that's an excellent credential, I think he's much more than that. I hope the clowns who watch Faux regularly see that. I fear they don't.
