Edited on Wed Mar-24-04 03:45 PM by buycitgo
Clarke got him AGAIN!


EDIT for cubists

fatboy tried to hang up clarke AGAIN on the fox backgrounder, this time by asking him to justify the contradiction between what he said in praise of dumbscumbo then, and what he's saying now

realize, a BACKGROUNDER is an UNATTARIBUTED interview, that pols give. he was DIRECTED to do so, and said that, of course, nobody doing one of those is going to CRITCIZE his boss.

Thompson, then, really stepped on his tiny, but fat, ween, by huffing about the "question of morality" in saying two such different things

Clarke, then, said that HE saw it, not as a question of morality, but as a QUESTION of POLITICS"

to HUGE applause!

but it gets almost better

6. Clarke was asked by Thompson why his 2002 media report was so much
different from his book. Clarke said that he could not very well attack an administration that he was working in and that he was asked to highlight the positives.

7. Then Thompson tries to underplay it
"I'm just a boy from the midwest, I ain't a washington insider, I wouldn't know much about that." Ya right.

8. He's one of the stupidest lawyers I've ever
seen. And I know, because I'm a lawyer.

9. I loved the look
After finishing one of his answers, Clarke just let it hang there and glared at Thompson, while presumably Thompson was peeing in his pants. You could have heard a pin drop for a few seconds there.
I sat there mesmorized by the look Clarke was giving him, and couldn't help but think, 'Damn, I wouldn't want to fuck with Clarke'.

There are VERY few republicans I have any respect for, but Clarke just catapulted right to the top of my list. He is what a true American Patriot looks like.

There is nothing quite so compelling as someone with the guts to speak truth to power.
