3. I will not trust Clark until I know where he stands...
Edited on Wed Sep-17-03 09:35 AM by Paulie
...on which side of the fence:

From: Col. John Boyd

"One day you will come to a fork in the road. And you're going to have to make a decision about what direction you want to go." raised his hand and pointed. "If you go that way you can be somebody. You will have to make compromises and you will have to turn your back on your friends. But you will be a member of the club and you will get promoted and you will get good assignments." Then Boyd raised the other hand and pointed another direction. "Or you can go that way and you can do something - something for your country and for your Air Force and for yourself. If you decide to do something, you may not get promoted and you may not get the good assignments and you certainly will not be a favorite of your superiors. But you won't have to compromise yourself. You will be true to your friends and to yourself. And your work might make a difference." He paused and stared. "To be somebody or to do something. In life there is often a roll call. That's when you will have to make a decision. To be or to do? Which way will you go?"


I want to know how he played the game at the Pentagon. You don't get that many stars on your shoulder unless you are on the wrong side. Colin Powel played the game correctly, that's why he made it to JCS.

WHICH SIDE WHERE YOU ON MR. CLARK? MY SUPPORT DEPENDS ON YOUR ANSWER!!!
