[dfitzsim]

It's about six minutes long, but OH so enjoyable:

1. Who was doing the "brow-beating"?

It seems to me the General was sticking up for himself when an asshole "journalist" was trying to get smart with him...

[dfitzsim]

2. You're right -- poor word choice

It's absolutely incredulous that anoyone, even Fox, would try to make it sound like Clark is somehow disloyal to the U.S. armed forces. Good for Clark for instantly recognizing the bullshit for what it was and refusing to play Fox's reindeer games.

3. WOW!....I guess that's an example of Clark's "temper"...Go Clark!

The more I see that man, the more I admire him....He's so straight forward and he KNOWS WHAT HE'S TALKING ABOUT!....I'm not American, but Im putting in my 2 cents anyway....He would make a great president!....:)

4. That is EXACTLY how these people need to be handled... and EVERY TIME!

By "these people", I mean right wing-nuts who toe the party line and constantly try to twist words, distract, and distort, and in general do anything to avoid discussing the real issues. If Gore had handled the criticism of him in 2000 in this way, he would have won in a landslide.

5. Clark was ready for the sack of shite

He has set the standard - he won't be screwed with by the media. The question now will be will they take him on or soft peddle him? Great that this happened on an issue where Clark was so right.

on eidt - and Brother John (above) you are so right!

6. that was great

kick

7. Wow ! Clark will eat bush alive in a debate. The truth is one wicked

weapon & this lying pond scum of an administration has forgotten just how powerful the Truth is.

Go Clark. Personal to Karl spruce up your resume dip shit your days in the oval office are near an end. The General is coming for you with Dean riding shotgun!

8. Every Democratic prez candidate's campaign should get the Clark interview

If I were a campaign manager, I'd

1) get a copy of Clark smacking down the obnoxious little Ailes acolyte

2) make multiple quick-and-dirty DVD copies

3) send a copy of the DVD along with a gift-wrapped fish à la The Godfather to every member of the FOX News DC bureau (and the Meet the Press staff) along with an approproate note card reading: "We're not going to take your shit anymore. We will make you the issue. Send our love to the RNC."

9. Who's weak now....

Wow... this should be required viewing for anyone who votes next year. He hits one of the major points that most republicans seem to miss...

We let Bin Laden get away. He wasn't in Iraq. He was in Afganistan. We knew there were now WMDs in Iraq, yet we invaded anyway. Was Bush hoping some would just appear? And when we invaded, and pulled the bulk of our special forces out of Afganistan, we let Bin Laden get away.

Bush let the most dangerous terrorist in the world get away. And noone should let him forget that.

[ramapo]

10. Which candidate has the guts to expose Bush?

How about Clark exposing the Bush family ties to the bin Ladens? The special treatment post-9/11. The investments in Bush businesses...the ties to Saudi Arabia...and so on and so on and so on...

14. Frustrating

I've tried to watch that clip seven times now. Each time it cuts off right after Assman reads the quote, before Clark can respond.
