[Clark Can WIN]

That is a great quote, and it illustrates what the willfully blind will not see. It's a very lucky thing that their numbers are so minute among the general voting public as to render them insignificant.

In particular........"I hate war as only a soldier who has lived it can, only as one who has seen its brutality, its futility, its stupidity."

Who better to address the misuse and perversion of the military than a liberal from within that system? Who better to promote diplomacy than someone who has agonized over the needless deaths of so many not from afar through numbers, stories and photographs but there with the stench and blood and the agony?

If Wesley Clarks education and intellect are threatening or emasculating to bags of steaming crap & renowned Democrat haters like Col. Hackworth, then I take that as a good sign.

On the heels of 9/11 is there anyone so naive as to believe that we can or even should put forth a candidate who would gut the military to pieces or even toss it aside altogether? If you do, you my friend your train is screaming away from reality with no brakes, and you had better jump now while you still can. A return to sane foreign policy and a more discreet military presence in the world will not come in that manner, and certainly not now.

Wesley Clark is our best chance to take the White House back decisively and restore sanity and respect to our foreign policy. Once he declares there will be more opportunity for him to speak to the domestic issues that concern him as well such as the environment and education, but that's a whole other topic.
