You havent "debunked" a thing. Clark is an opportunist. Read what Toad's quote he flip flopped all over whetehr he would have voted for the resolution authorizing President Bush to use force in Iraq. Shelton may or may not be a Bush Supporter but he would know more then you.
Clark isnt a threat to Bush, he wont even get the nomination. The Clintons pushed him out there to get him out of the way in 2008.
Hes lied about the "came from the white house" crap and already has known "character and integrity" issues. He lied about Bush trying to get him fired from CNN. Feel free to hitch your wagon to that horse. Sounds like you know how to pick a winner.
Retired Colonel David Hackworth says Clark didnt get what he deserved over Kosovo
Your own link says he wanted a more "vigorous military campaign" against the Serbs. They also say thats why Cohen fired him. Then you say he should be credited with the "less vigorus" air campaign.
Retired Colonel Dan Smith - a West Point classmate of
General Clark - says the NATO Commander believes the
only way you can achieve success militarily, is to
have troops on the ground.
/// CLARK ACT ///
He is of the school which in the United States
is generally attributed to General Colin Powell:
if you are going to fight, you go in with both
feet and you go in fast and you go in hard with
overwhelming force - and I think that was what
Wes was trying to push NATO into.
/// END ACT ///
During the 11-week air campaign, there were signs of
friction between General Clark and senior Pentagon
officials - especially over the use of ground forces.
That option was essentially rejected by the Clinton
administration, putting General Clark in direct
opposition to current US policy.
Paul Beaver - senior analyst with the British
publication "Jane's Defense Weekly" - says General
Clark disagreed with another senior NATO officer about
the use of ground troops in the Kosovo campaign.
/// BEAVER ACT ///
Certainly he wanted to be more robust in the
Kosovo landing operation. He wanted to go and
confront the Russians at Pristina airfield. And
that was actually a matter of some debate
between him and the ground force commander
(British General) Sir Mike Jackson in which Sir
Mike Jackson won, because in his words it would
have started World War Three and we weren't
quite ready for that.
/// END ACT ///
Sounds like it was Pentagon that should recieve the credit for Kosovo.
Sounds like you would make a fine dem candidate, are you from Arkansas?
