Reply #59: There 's a logic to their actions which even Clark would have appreciated [View All]

Furthermore, I think everyone appreciates that it's easy to criticize people when you weren't in the position they were in. For the same reason you think it's wrong for me to speculate what Clark would have done, Clark's criticism of Kerry and Edwards carries little weight: he wasn't in the position they were in, so it's easy to criticize.

If Clark can crticize others in a position he wasn't in, it's perfectly legitimate for me to speculate about what Clark would have done.

Clark can't have it both ways. Either we're both wrong, or we're both allowed to, as you say, 'spin.'

As for GI lives, you do know that Clark's big problem with Yugoslavia was that he wanted to risk GI lives to end that conflict sooner to save civilian lives.

I'm not sure that counting GI lives ALONE is the best argument to make about the war being wrong if you're a Clark-supporter.
