[in_cog_ni_to]

1. He's there!

He has his Patriots sweat shirt on. He is SO personable!

[robbedvoter]

2. Problems in Kosovo- no US leadership to help

talking to people on his way in

[robbedvoter]

3. This party practices their faith. GOP-ers just preach - first comment

Good contrast to the freeper on the phone before ranting about "the party of God"

[Renew Deal]

4. Kosovo should have independence.

That's a huge comment.

[robbedvoter]

5. Has an apron on: VOTE FOR THE COOK - will flip pancakes!!

[robbedvoter]

6. Love a guy who knows his way around the kitchen (got one too)

"If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen? I'm in the kitchen!

[maddezmom]

7. speaking about public service

acknowledging the Veterans.

[LoneStarDem]

8. Hehehe

He just did his Rangel impression!

[robbedvoter]

9. Repemtant Repoblican asks him why is he running - mentions draft

impersonates Rangel "This is Sgt Rangel, want my general" and the state of the country - best days ahead of us not behind us. Unlock the potential of Amrica

[laruemtt]

10. that Gert

is one lucky lady!

[Renew Deal]

11. Have you seen the video?

The Biopic. She is in that. She seems to be a very bright intense woman.

[laruemtt]

21. haven't seen it -

do you know where i can get a copy of it?

[Ilsa]

59. Here you go, Laruemtt...

http://www.clark04.com/americanson/

Will take you directly to the download for the 18 minute biopic on Clark.

I've seen it. It's a great piece. Very inspiring.

[robbedvoter]

12. Story about Haitian dreaming to go to America.

The American dream - get it back!

[robbedvoter]

13. Who would you pick: Hillary or McCain (hypotetical race senate)

Like them both - vote for Hillary

[Renew Deal]

14. That's a tough question

Esspecially in NH. I wonder if Lieberman would have said McCain. He probably would have.

[robbedvoter]

15. After cold war , understood that a more visionary leadership was needed -

started voting Dem. Before - National Security determined his vote.

[robbedvoter]

16. Great response re: drug benefit - costs etc

mental health - question

[robbedvoter]

17. Jails - to many - discriminatory - we have to change.

[maddezmom]

19. 25% of African Amer. males end up in prison

wow, is that accurate?

[robbedvoter]

20. Patriot act - no accountability - Ashcroft failed to report to Congress

suspend search& seasures. We'll call FORMER AG Ashcroft to testify on the implementation of Patriot act..

[robbedvoter]

26. Computer voting - Diebold guy letter to W - scared people

Earlier machines - no paper voting. We 'll put in place paper trial. We need to be vigilent- demand paper trail.
media consolidation issue - I am a former CNN commentator. ANy CNN? Only Fox? That's OK, I've been there - I love to argue with those guys. Bring back equal time - against consolidation - we need independent media.

[Tom Rinaldo]

18. Public Service Announcement

All Clark supporters please read the new rules for political discussion for this forum found in a new Administrative thread towards the top of the Forum.

We must now always refer to ourselves and supporters of other candidates with terms like "Ckark Spporters" or Clark opponents", "Dean Supporters" or "Dean opponents" or something to that effect. No more "nicknames". I actually need to reread the rule myself. Just went into effect at 10:00 AM.

[maddezmom]

22. easy for me, like the rule!

Thanks for the PSA. :)

[Lefta Dissenter]

23. Oh crap, crap, crap

I started my tape to record this and sat down to enjoy a cup of coffee and last minute Christmas planning time with my husband, and now come up to see that MY TAPE RAN OUT!!! GRRRRRR....

Anyone know if this will be re-played on CPAN again?

edited to say, what the hell is CPAN??? I meant C-SPAN. oops

[parasim]

27. C-SPAN 's website...

... usually posts the video soon after the event:

http://www.c-span.org/

[in_cog_ni_to]

29. C-SPAN "usually" has the video

online. :) Check them later today or tomorrow.

[maddezmom]

24. talking about Diebold, he's a Ranger for bush*

[graham67]

28. Good Job!

I'm glad he mentioned Diebold. :D

[Jackhammer Jesus]

25. On voting machines

He's pushing for paper trails in electronic voting machines.

He says there MUST be a printout, not just that you voted, but who you voted for.

[in_cog_ni_to]

30. Diebold..

He has learned the issues...FAST and is able to speak to them in an indepth way. He is amazing. Such a smart man.

Just listen to him talk about Russia!

[robbedvoter]

31. Russian Chechnic conflic? He explains the background.

Talked to both sides of the conflict. Russians responded badly to quest for independence."If you are looking for a fight, you'll find one" Resistance movement drew support - islamic extremists joined. Needs legitimate mediation. I would offer my offices to help that US - or other countries..

[robbedvoter]

32. Outsourcing jobs - eliminate tax incentives, loopholes for corps

to do that, keep jobs here, review H-1 visas.

[in_cog_ni_to]

33. Outsourcing

Remove incentives for companies who are taking their biz overseas. Give incentives to companies who keep jobs here. We are going to protect American employment. Make USA buy USA.

[maddezmom]

34. cute lady : "I'm a Jets fan but won't hold it against you"

did you just hear the salty language? LOL

[OKNancy]

35. LOL he said "shit"

Said he'd beat the shit out of them if they come after him like they did McCain.( with slurs and slander etc)

[eleny]

42. Amazing! He can be so blunt!

Won't be taking any of the slurs and slander and going back on military promises. "I'll beat the *shit* out of them." I'd like to see a shrub response to that. Seemed like he didn't only mean that he'd beat them in a campaign. Sounded like he'd like the beat the shit out of shrubs campaign people for their tactics and I love it.

[Myra]

60. He's very blunt. Doesn't sound at all like a pol.

I think people even said that to him at this event.

[HFishbine]

54. Ruh Roh!

Personally, I love that kind of shit. I'd like to see a debate where candidates are required to cuss. But is Clark now in for the same kind of pretentious moralizing Kerry got for saying "fuck?"

[in_cog_ni_to]

36. He needs our support!

He's got it! :loveya: He's incredible. I love listening to him scmooze with the people before and after these things.

OMG! He just said he would "Beat the Shit out of the republicans and other Dems" if they attack him on his military rise to the top and smear him as they did to McCain and other candidates!

:bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce::bounce:

[maddezmom]

39. He's got mine n/t

[TexasPatriot]

37. "I'm going to beat the shit out of them"

when asked how he would react if anyone attacked veterans, veterans issues, or the patriotism of the military that was his quote...

hehehehehe

[Jackhammer Jesus]

38. "Of course I will, I'll beat the shit out of 'em!"

Anybody else hear his response to the question about not letting himself be trashed the way McCain was by Dubya?

Friggin' great!

[Cornus]

40. Then the sound was cut

Right after that comment the sound went dead for a short time. Think someone cut it?

[RebelOne]

43. No, the sound was cut after some lady

asked him if he supported Israel, and he said yes, his father was Jewish. I didn't know that.

[in_cog_ni_to]

47. His dad died when he was 4 years old

and his mom remarried a Protestant. Then, he married Gert who is Catholic. He converted to Catholicism when he was serving in Nam.

[robbedvoter]

41. McCain 2000 - attacked by W - will you be active and not allow

W, other dems come with the Mladic hat nonsense, officers who dislike you ? "I'll beat the s* out of them!" He made my day!!!

[in_cog_ni_to]

44. A man....."My mom said...

All I want for Christmas is a donation to the Clark campaign."
Clark just wrote to her..."Thanks for the Christmas gift"...Cute!

[Clark4Prez]

45. I keep being more impressed with Clark

I was able to be on a conferance call with the General this week (I am not trying to be uppity, there were 12,000 of us on the call).

The depth of his ability to understand and explain issues, never fails to amaze me. When you compare Clark to *, what a difference! You wonder how anyone in there right mind could vote for any one but Clark.

(/Gushing off)

[rasputin1952]

46. When asked about the bush/McCain debacle in NH...

and the possible repeat from the bush camp, Clark's reply: "we're gonna beat the shit out of him"!

Gotta love the guy!

:bounce:

[robbedvoter]

48. Lybia- success of the old doctrine - diplomacy rather than war

Doctrine thayt Bushco threw away but now proved successful; Foreign funding of the campaign? - didn't do it - it shows W is taking my candidacy very seriously and should because I am the best qualified to oppose him.

[in_cog_ni_to]

49. Is the Patriot game on tonight?

I will have to watch it so I can see his commercial.

On the Bush accusation of his campaigning while testifying at The Hague.

"I was not campaigning while there and it just goes to show you how nervous the WH is of my campaign and they SHOULD be because I am the best candidate for being president. " :bounce:

[maddezmom]

50. The Ads

"He speaks 4 languages but his actions speak louder than words" is that the quote?

[Tom Rinaldo]

51. Clark has fully hit his stride

Three months and he's figured out how to play politics on the Presidential level. This is one smart man. Let him at the economy, I say. He does campaigning now better than most who have been at it for over twenty years. Clark has a very sharp learning curve.

[Jerseycoa]

52. Scheduled to replay 6:30 PM C-Span1

56. GENERALLY SPEAKING

as far as his response to what happened to McCain... Its what they (****** bushco) did to McCain in SC that made me become a DEMOCRAT What a great person The General is, I will be donating to his campaign for his birthday on tues. I am a Clark supporter

[in_cog_ni_to]

58. Welcome to DU, Ivote!

:hi: Nice to have another Clark supporter on board! :bounce:

[robbedvoter]

57. My favorite comment on that is:

The best thing about Clark is that he can use words like S*** and "plebiscite" with equal aplomb.
CatM

[TacticalPeek]

61. Ambivoxtrous?

:silly:

[Myra]

62. General Clark's exact words on Big Pharma from rerun on CSPAN

Q-Why should I have to go to Canada to afford drugs?

A-"We're gonna go to Canada and get the drugs until we can break the back of big pharma."
- General Wesley Clark, Nashua, New Hampshire, 12/20/2003

Because:

"A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on."
- Winston Churchill
