What a shame - General Clark endorses Hillary

well, well, well...



honest to god, i thought he had more smarts than this...

Dear General Clark,

You have made a very serious mistake and I am sorely disappointed in your judgment. Hillary Clinton is about as compromised a candidate as they come and I thought that you, of all people, would be smart enough to recognize that. The only difference between Hillary Clinton and the Bush administration is the difference between covert and overt. Hillary will take us right down the same road we're traveling right now, just as her husband did, only we will feel better along the way about what an "enlightened" choice we made in getting rid of the current band of criminals.

Unfortunately, General Clark, your choice tells me more about you than it does about Hillary Clinton.

In disgust,

Correction and apology

commenter scarletwoman rightfully upbraided me for posting this excerpt from prison planet unchecked...

Wesley Clark appeared on Keith Olbermann's Countdown last night and stated that "the orders came from the very top" to murder Tillman as he was a political symbol and his opposition to the war in Iraq would have rallied the population around supporting immediate withdrawal.

she said this, in part...

The new AP revelations DO raise the possibility that Tillman's death may have been a deliberate act of fragging, rather than a friendly fire accident.

To take a leap from there to wild speculations about it being "ordered" from on high is somewhat excuseable, if a bit over the top.

But to put words in General Clark's mouth that he DID NOT SAY to support your theorizing is absolutely INexcuseable -- it is irresponsible and mendacious.

i checked the segment on keith olbermann's program and found that, indeed, general clark's comment referred to the orders for the COVER-UP, not the MURDER as coming from the top... i try not to get suckered into posting on unverifiable stories, but i did on this one... here's the olbermann clip... general clark's actual comment can be verified at the point of 1:45 time remaining on the 6:32 clip...

If true, the Tillman story will be the smoking gun that brings down the Bush administration

besides the excerpt below (prison planet), you can read other sources here (casey), here (daily kos), and here (wcbs tv)...

Wesley Clark appeared on Keith Olbermann's Countdown last night and stated that "the orders came from the very top" to murder Tillman as he was a political symbol and his opposition to the war in Iraq would have rallied the population around supporting immediate withdrawal.

this may or may not be the smoking gun i've been waiting for, but, if it isn't, it's goddam close... i've been feeling very strongly that something's about to break... maybe this is it, and, then again, maybe not...
