25. Gee...thanks for that link.
Although I didn't find the part where Clark denounces the PNAC plan, I did read farther down and found this gem:

Clark praises the Reagan economic policies!

(snip)

(Clark): As for Ronald Reagan, there were some things done well, some things done poorly, but one of the biggest things was it was the administration in which inflation came under control as the result of a lot of tough policies, some of them begun by Reagan's predecessor to attack the expectations that had built up in this country as a result of trying to do guns and butter during Vietnam. And it took years to drive these expectations out of the business community, out of the financial community. But as they disappeared and people began to accept core inflation rates of less than two and three percent and they didn't build cost escalators into everything, you established a much firmer sense of purpose and success in America. That's a bipartisan effort. I loved Reagan's speech at Pointe du Hoc. I was at the Pentagon, I was at the Pentagon as a colonel when he gave it on D-Day.




Golly, can we expect some of that neat "trickle down" conomics from a Clark adminstration?
