On tuesday, just saw the crawler on CNN, what does this mean?
OK the CNN crawler is saying SHe will release here delegates on Tuesday and ask them to vote for Obama. Major blunder by McCain running that ad.Here are some of my favorite quotes about Wes Clark that I accumulated during the 04 campaign. I don't have citations for them but google should point you in the right direction.
"Major Clark is one of the most outstanding officers of his grade in the U.S. Army...an officer of impeccable character with a rare blend of personal qualities and professional attributes which uniquely qualify him as a soldier-scholar. While he has the intellectual grasp of world affairs attained only by the top scholars in the field, he projects soldierly qualities of strength, character, leadership, and above all an unyielding sense of personal responsibility. It is this sense of responsibility which clearly sets him apart from his contemporaries. [He] has the intellectual, moral and physical stamina, coupled with an unrelenting quest for excellence, which insures the completion of every task to near perfection. Major Clark's earnestness, sincerity of purpose and absolute dedication convey a moral force in his work which gives him a significant voice in this headquarters..."-General Alexander M. Haig, Jr., July 19, 1978
"[Clark] seems to be preoccupied, and I'm quoting now, with building legitimacy, with exhausting all diplomatic remedies... So I think General Clark simply doesn't want to see us use military force and he has thrown out as many reasons as he can develop to that but the bottom line is he just doesn't want to take action. He wants to wait."Richard Perle, Iraq war-mongerer, before congress Sept. 26, 2002
"Just when the world is being dragged into the death spiral of an unending cycle of violence by a vision-less, coldblooded collection of think-tank warriors goose-stepping their way into the new millennium with a stunning lack of respect for human rights, the environment, or international law, along comes a man with the proven credentials of intelligence, integrity, and courage singularly equipped by his spirit and experience to lead us out of this mess. Don't listen to what the lying liars say about him; listen to what he says. Wesley Clark is a prayer answered."Peace,
Kris Kristofferson
"There are two stars in the Democratic Party -- Hillary and Wes Clark."Bill Clinton
My favorite:
"Nothing is more American; nothing is more patriotic than speaking out, questioning authority and holding your leaders accountable."Wes Clark
"You will determine whether rage or reason guides the United States in the struggle to come. You will choose whether we are known for revenge or compassion. You will choose whether we, too, will kill in the name of God, or whether in His name, we can find a higher civilization and a better means of settling our differences"Wes Clark
Looks like Clinton is ahead in a new NC poll.
