Reply #90: "at least with that particular paragraph"

[Sparkly]

May I suggest you read the whole thing and consider that paragraph not only in the context of the whole, but also in the context of TIME and political purpose and possible influence?

I mean, Clark-bashers are the first to say "He's not a politician!!" Yet every citation that shows how careful he is in being measured in his words and influence (yet still far more strong and direct than your average politician thank you!) he's criticized for not stating it more strongly...?

Please read the totality of what he said in its CONTEXT IN TIME. None of these people were mindreaders!! What he said was absolutely appropriate, pointed, tactful, and yet powerful exactly how and when he said it.
