| 141. Clark did well under difficult circumstances.... |
|
Russert was loaded for bear and had all his clips and quotes ready to massacre the General. However, the General is very adept with the English language and is very quick on his feet. He did admit he made a mistake with exchanging hats with the Serb general and by taking gifts. This is probably what Hugh Shelton is referring to when he talks about the "character and integrity" of General Clark? But, as Russert has noted, General Clark is not an easy mark.
