Reply #50: A she, and a military veteran

[IndianaGreen]

with a long association with the military, which is why I am not easily mesmerized by the brass, or generals with Presidential ambitions whose military record can come into question.

Believe me, there are issues about Douglas McArthur own military record, even George Patton. Wesley Clark is no exception!

The man's military record, his command of troops in the field, his tactics, and even the missions that he led, are as legitimate areas of inquiry as a regular politician's voting record. In Clark's case, one also has to consider his business associations after he retired from active duty.

As to my remark about Clark's wife, had any of you served in the military, you would have known exactly were I was coming from because you would have known about, or experienced, how some of the wives of high ranking officers abuse the system having GIs carry grocery bags for them, chauffer them to every conceivable errand, including watching them get their hair done (usually something ghastly), etc.
