[...] Needless to say, though, that the left in general and Wes Clark in particular would balk at someone using their Absolute Moral Authority to advance a political agenda is an irony too enormous to be absorbed in one take. [...]

[...] From the same lovely outfit that brought you Wes Clark’s notorious “Because of Iraq” ad comes this latest exercise in absolute moral authority. Your quote of the day: “If you support escalation, you don’t support the troops.” [...]

Like “Hanoi John” Kerry, Wesley Clark suffers
from democrat “combat-foot-in-mouth” disease.

Mr Clark was never a respected military man. He was a suck-ass that crawled and sucked his way to the top. The highlight of his career was blanket bombing civilians. Now he’s trying to suck his way higher.

Worth repeating. Thanks, Griz!

He’s an idiot. What’s causing terrorism today is what our NEXT president will do in 2009.

What a piece of crap this guy is! He KNOWS DAMN WELL that Iraq is NOT the cause of terrorism, yet he looks you right in eye and tells you that it is.

If anybody knows better it would be this four star general. So, either he’s a lyin’ prick bastard or he’s so stupid that he actually believes this b.s. We have a LACK of terrorism here at home BECAUSE OF IRAQ and he knows it. Wesley, you suck.

Herels a general that libs WILL listen to, they’ll follow his every word and nod their empty heads in agreement. Pathetic.

Do good in school or get stuck in Bosnia, right General?

NAME THEORY
To amuse myself over the years I’ve developed this little First Name Theory. Examples: Most Bobs seem to be nice guys. Most Larrys seem to be flakes. Dicks — can be. Most Debbies — sluts (not a bad thing –just personal experience).

I’ve always wanted to test this out. This seems like the perfect place. Any verification? additions?

With apologies to people with this name, I have found in my life that most Dan’s and Danny’s are losers. That’s the only name I’ve come across like that.

Thank you Wes for your public service annoucement of the Dem talking points. You are so credible to me that I am now going to go out a vote Democrat…..RIGHT……WRONG Mr. Shill!!!!

I do have a question for you though, was it you who presented John Kerry with his medals for his heroic 3 months service in Viet Nam?? Just thought I would ask!

Are you talking about Michael J. Fox, or AlGore?

Clark’s a nut, you can tell by the crazy eyes…Is he about to cry at the end?!
What a loser and a girly man!
seejanemom, go for it!

Canary, girls named Lisa (also Elizabeth or Liz) are ALWAYS trouble.
Debbies may be sluts for men, but they’re also b*tches to other women.
Men named Jim or James are usually pricks and/or alcoholics.

I haven’t the words to properly express the outrage that Clark’s commercial incites.

Remember the Tehran hostage crisis, 1979-1981. (Iran)

Remember the Beirut embassy bombing, April 1983. 63 dead (17 U.S.) (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember Beirut Marines barracks, October 1983. 241 US servicemen dead. (Iran/Syria-Hezbollah)

Remember the Kuwait embassy bombing, December 1983. 5 dead (plus the truck bomber). (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember the kidnapping of CIA station cheif William Buckley, March 1984. Died in captivity. Terry Anderson, Peter Kilburn, and Benjamin Weir among 25 other westerners kidnapped by the Iran-backed Hezbollah over an 8 year period. (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember the Beirut embassy bombing, September 1984. 24 dead. (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember the hijacking of Kuwait Airways flight 221, December 1984. An attempt to get the 17 Iranians convicted of the Kuwait embassy bombing released. Two dead. (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember the hijacking of TWA flight 847 in Beirut, June 1985. Also an attempt to gain the release of the Kuwait 17. U.S.Navy Seal Robert Stethem killed, dumped from the plane onto the tarmac. (Iran-Hezbollah)

Remember the Achillie Lauro, October 1985. Leon Klinghoffer, a wheelchair-bound man, killed and tossed overboard. (PLO/PLF)

Remember the bombing of Pan Am flight 103 over Lockerbie, Scotland, December 1988. 270 killed, including all 259 aboard the plane and 11 on the ground. (Libya)

It was an Iraqi Mirage F-1 jet that fired two Exocet missiles into the USS Stark in June of 1987. It wasn’t until President Reagan threatened Iraq with dropping our tacit support in the Iran/Iraq conflict that they issued an apology, and offered some cash to the families of those killed. The Iraqis claimed that their pilot believed the U.S. Frigate was an Iranian tanker, but it was inside of 12 miles and below 3,000 feet when it fired, and no fighter pilot’s vision is that bad. 37 US Sailors killed.

All of these events are before Iraq invaded Kuwait in 1990. All of them specifically targeted Americans.
But according to the man who ordered 78 days of blanket bombing in Kosovo, it’s all because we invaded Iraq.

Clark’s terrorism against the Christian Serbs had nothing to do with Iraq.

1) Terrorism is because of US troops in Iraq.
2) US troops are in Iraq because they are poorly educated.
3) There is an “education gap” in the US, and minorities, especially black folks, aren’t educated well.

Therefore, according to Kerry/Clark…

Black people cause terrorism.

I’m outraged.

We could all sit at home and write headlines for any of the liberals this weekend. I think the DNC put all of the bumper-sticker headlines (with a time and date to release) in a hat and each talking head grabbed one and is now spouting them off one at a time. They took Kerry’s away (he is to stooopid), and Pelosi wasn’t given one. And where is Jessie, I miss him. It was Wessies turn today, tomorrow it is the NYT. Clinton, than Kennedy (if he is sober), Hollywood was told to stay away (unless you have a desease). It is going to be a great weekend.

Where are the big guns for the far left hiding? They are acting like the cowards they are, afraid to come out and explain why they have no plan, no ideas, only hate for Bush. Their politics are so extreme they can’t afford to put their faces in the public eye. Just disgraceful!

They’re wetting their underpants for the eventuality of winning or of losing.

Good reminder fogw – out of sight: Pelosi, Reid, Emmanuel, Schumer, Mrs. Clinton, all the would-be cabinet masters – all of a sudden camera shy?

They’re shaking with every slowly-passing minute, praying for miracles and the MSM’s help to fool the public.

Heh, I have more faith in the public’s sense of security and survival. Offering nothing still adds up to nothing, even when viewed by what they perceive to be dummies.

2 thoughts:

1. Is the use of these soldiers not considered “politicizing” the war?

Unfortunately, he has morphed from a respected military man to a Democrat politician.

-yeah, no kidding, he has never won an election.
