[ErinBerin84]

heads up.

[cbc5g]

1. He's lookin good..I still like Clark for VP

[Sensitivity]

21. Probably the BEST CHOICE, but many don't want any emphasis on Military Strength

[Donna Zen]

2. Watching him now

The General is looking good.

[Adelante]

5. What is he talking about, Donna? nt

[ErinBerin84]

3. god!

That Washington Times woman is positively vile!

(I mean, I know I should expect it from Washington Times, but what a fucking hack!)

4. I wish Obama would choose him for VP.

He is pretty awesome.

[indie_voter]

[ErinBerin84]

[Sparkly]

18. Me four.

:hi:

[Adelante]

8. What is he saying?

Thanks.

[Raine]

11. Press coverage

and how things are taken out of context, saying that it's the RW press that does it to Obama. Basically that McStain is a whining crybaby about boo hoo his lack of press coverage while Obama is on his trip.

[Adelante]

15. Haha

That's great :D

I also hear he said the CiC doesn't have to listen to the commander on the ground. That's a good answer, too.

[ErinBerin84]

12. The Washington Times wench is trying to say that it is SHOCKING

that Obama said he would not listen to commanders on the ground. Dan corrected her that he didn't say he wouldn't listen, but would cast the commander's perspective into a broader range of objectives, Clark enchoing the clarification. The Wench got really annoying and challenged Clark "As a general, don't you think that if you went to the commander in chief with a strategy that he thought would work, it should be taken into consideration?" Clark defended Obama's position and reiterated the difference between commanders in the field and the commander in chief in who gets to set the agenda. Clark seemed kind of low key, not really agressive as he usually is, though he is always good. He just seemed a bit more soft spoken tonight...


And then the Washington Times wench said that Obama "stumbled and mumbled his way through the press conference" and started spouting the "Israel will remain a friend to Israel's" slip up that Obama made at his presser (during a segment about the McCain camp whining about the media), and Dan said "I think I know what you're talking about..." and played a montage of McCain's many gaffes through the campaign set to the Chariots of Fire theme. I turned it off after that, because the Washington Times woman really was awful.

[Adelante]

16. What a horror she sounds like

:wow:

[Cha]

9. Is Wes saying something about

Obama being over there in Foreign Policy territory?:)

[Adelante]

10. I don't get the channel

He may be on about Karadzic.

[World Citizen]

13. the same old RW media three step

take it out of context
distort
personal attack

In other words, attempt to willfully mislead people.
In other words, lie.

[indie_voter]

14. I loved the last part where he talked about the right wing 3 step

He was taken out of context and they personally attacked him.

It makes me sick. He would have been a formidable VP, I hope he still is in the running but considering the stupid MSM, I doubt he is.

[Cha]

17. That shit's blown over..it's

a whole new ball game now and mcsurge better head for the hills.

[indie_voter]

19. I hope so. Clark is, mho, a fantastic choice for VP. n/t

[alydar]

20. I thought he was more laid back, calm, collected than usual

He's usually more animated on Abrams' show. Almost looked like he knows he's being vetted. Maybe just wishful thinking, though.
