Wes Clarke; bush says don't vote for bush

[LynnTheDem]

Today George W. Bush made a very compelling and thoughtful argument for why he should not be reelected. In his own words, he told the American people that “…a political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your Commander in Chief.

President Bush couldn’t be more right. He jumped to conclusions about any connection between Saddam Hussein and 911. He jumped to conclusions about weapons of mass destruction. He jumped to conclusions about the mission being accomplished. He jumped to conclusions about how we had enough troops on the ground to win the peace. And because he jumped to conclusions, terrorists and insurgents in Iraq may very well have their hands on powerful explosives to attack our troops, we are stuck in Iraq without a plan to win the peace, and Americans are less safe both at home and abroad.

By doing all these things, he broke faith with our men and women in uniform. He has let them down. George W. Bush is unfit to be our Commander in Chief.

1. brilliant

He doesn't miss a thing. I hope this one's heard loud and clear.
And those fucking freepers-Of course they're talking about it. They just can't STAND that a distinguished General (and so many others, for that matter), supports OUR man.

2. Priceless

The really sad part is I am sure Bush was working from a script.

3. lol

Sadly, I have no doubt that you're right. Before the shrub, I have never seen someone who spoke COMPLETELY in scripted slogans and soundbytes. It's weird.

4. Actually it's Wes K. Clark

But he do kick ass, don't he? :toast: :bounce:

[FrenchieCat]

5. Yea...

he sure do.....

[lady raven]

6. hmm hmmm

And I have to say it- He's very easy on the eyes! (ducking for cover)

[LynnTheDem]

7. That he be...

Very nice piece of eye candy. *drool*

You seen him in uniform???

ArrrrrOOOOOOOOOOOOOooooooooooo!!!

[LosinIt]

8. I've said from the beginning, he's TOO pretty to be president

nothing would get done, everyone would just be admiring that face all day. And it's a shame too, he would have made a damn fine CIC.

[lady raven]

11. ooooh

I have had the pleasure of seeing him in person twice, but not in uniform :-( That's OK though! He could have been wearing anything.

He has gorgeous eyes...

His son ain't chopped liver either!

I think I saw something on another thread about Wes Jr being the future Governor of CA? Is he really thinking about it, or is this just wishful thinking?

19. General Hottie comments aside...

Wes Jr is a screenwriter in California and since his appearances in the campaign for his father, many, many, many, many people have urged him to run for something. For anything.

He really is that good. Picture Wes thirty years younger, less some of the experience, but with the General's amazing charisma and ability to simplify and explain any issue in a way that ensures maximum buy in. The guy is a complete natural.

The trouble is, he doesn't really like public life. Like his father, he'll have to be drafed to the roll.

But don't let that stop you.

9. But we don't know what Bush* meant by that

until his handlers come out and tell us what he meant to say! :P

[Shae]

10. Dupe

oops

[lady raven]

12. I wonder...

If he reads this forum. :-)

[FrenchieCat]

14. If he does........

he can read this:

General Wes Clark = Secretary of kicking Ass aka SKA!

Normally with a big smile he does the SKA!

[FrenchieCat]

16. Or....

Secretary of Ass Kicking.

SAK or SKA?

Which do you prefer?

17. Wes Jr. posted here a couple of times

I think that was around the time that Kerry was about to announce the VP choice.

[radfringe]

13. saw the news clip on it

“…a political candidate who jumps to conclusions without knowing the facts is not a person you want as your Commander in Chief.

my partner snorted: Yep, and that's why we aren't voting for the Smirk-boy!

[Crunchy Frog]

15. The first part of that statement

went into my sig line today. And he is pretty easy on the eyes too.

[wolfgirl]

18. I love

that man!

[GOPBasher]

20. LOL

[liberal N proud]

21. I hope Kerry turns that around on him!

[texasmom]

22. He's just brilliant!

Thanks for posting this. I hadn't seen that he'd said it, though I did watch a clip of Bush making his statement.
The General always says the perfect thing, succinctly, and so on target.
I just love him.
