General Wesley Clark is an Idiot!

I'll be honest, I didn't even read it. I saw the headline floating on DRUDGE this morning and ignored it. Clark has said enough stupid things over the past years to lead me to believe he's just plain stupid.


.
 
Well, the first question to ask of Mr. Clark is............
What makes him qualified to determine who is and isn't qualified to be president?
 
I haven't read it, but I don't see how JUST being a war vet makes you any more qualified for president.

There is much more to it than that.

You're right, it doesn't. But Wesley was one to defend Kerry and his service, which compared to the girth and length of McCains, isn't on the same scale. And compared to Obama? well, he doesn't have any. 'Just' being a war vet does not make one qualified. But it surely is not a bad thing.

Which is the point. What, it's only important when it fits 'his' candidate? He insulted McCain big time, enough that even Obama is trying to back away from it.
 
Obama doesn't agree with it, which is what most on here believe as well, so why make a big deal about it? You are angry at Obama because he is saying exactly what you are.

What many on here are saying is that just because they served they are automatically qualified to be President. So what about Kerry? Shouldn't he be qualified to be President? He served?


You see my logic now?
 
NO Milehigh, I don't understand that at all. I simply stated that Clark is an idiot. He continually puts down McCain's war record as being unimportant. He continues to dismiss McCain's service to his country and his years in the Senate as unimportant. He keeps saying all sorts of crapp about how McCain hasn't been in an executive decision making position, and isn't qualified. But, the idiot won't answer a single question about what makes Obama qualified. He demeans without reason. What decision making executive role has Obama been in? What has Obama done that qualifies him to be president. Going to Harvard makes you qualified????

I say McCain's service is important. He served, therefore I believe he loves his country. He stayed in the Hanio Hilton because his comrades weren't being released, so he isn't self centered. His own son goes to Iraq to fight, but yet he still holds steadfast in his convictions. And furthermore, he doesn't parade is sons around like Obama does his grandparents pictures. He's served in the Senate, he must have learned something about governence in the last 22 years. In my opinion, the most important qualifications of a president is loving your country, and being trustworthy. Neither aspect of which Obama has actually shown.

All Obama talks about is change, and how the poor need free money, and the rich (which everyone on here is by his definition) need to be punished. Some of his Ideas are good, but they seem more calculated for votes than believable. Obama's role model for the first many years of his life was a crazy lady, by all accounts, and a runaway father, and several foreign stepfathers. The only glimmer of hope is that Obama's Grandparents instilled something meaningful within him. It's good that Obama criticized Clark for staying stupid shiet. But, he only did it after pressure.

You see my logic now?

Trying to start something are we? First of all, what most on here believe is that we know where McCain stands. We don't doubt his love of country. For one to have served as long as McCain and endured as much as he did, I would have to say gives him an abundance of experience over Obama in this arena. I have no I idea what Obama stands for nor do I care to. I have seen enough double talk from him already in this election to have made up my mind about his character.

Now for Kerry, whom you didn't vote for, for some unknown reason. His own men questioned his devotion to his service, he lied about the atrocities commited, and threw his medals away. Need I say more.

No, I don't see your logic. No one on here is "angry at Obama" about this. In fact he has nothing to do with it. The issue was Wesley.

Kerry? his service did count. Just not enough apparently. Thank God.

Actually, Clark was given talking points by Obama and his major job was to downplay McCains war record so as to remove it from the presidential race since Obama doesn't have any experience in the military.

The fact Clark was so blunt about it is not a big deal and Obama could care less, however, the backlass was so fast and sharp he distanced himself right quick.

And as to being in the military makes you more qualified, yes it does.
How??
You have no idea how to command the military if you have never been in the military. To just say, I am now the commander and cheif, follow me. Sorry, doesn't really work.
The thing that did Kerry in on his war record was he LIED about it.
 
Being in the military does not automatically qualify you to be President. Not everyone that is in the military learns how to command an entire military.

I would much rather have someone in charge that uses their tools (their Generals) at a time of war, they are the ones qualified to run a war.

Running a war and running a country are two seperate things.

Being in the military certainly doesn't hurt you in any way, but it certainly isn't the sole qualifier.


Obama does not agree with what General Clark has said:

This is one time that I agree with MHA. I believe that being in the Military will make a better president. I don’t think it’s a must. A good manager will listen to his advisors and make an educated decision. The most successful business people are ones that surround them with good people and listen to them.
 
Yes mile high, I think everyone here agrees that being in the Military doesn't make you President Proof. Your point??? After all, Jimmy Carter was in the Navy, and look how great of a president he was. He sucked.

Does his military service indicate anything to you about his character? Like not leaving behind the other men to rot?

Does his Military service and Legislative service help make him a better president? Clark can't think of one single thing that makes McCain able to lead the country. And, Clark won't mention one single thing that makes Obama able to lead the country. So, we are screwed. Therefore I postulate Clark is an idiot.

You list one thing that Obama's done for his country, and I'll list one thing McCain's done. Want to bet who can go further. I'll help you. Obama served less than one term as Senator for his country. My turn, McCain worked on the initial supercarrier project. Your turn.
 
Oh yea,
Wade your right Wesley is and Idiot. I forgot that in my first post.:D
