You've got me. When you put in those terms, he's f*cked up quite a bit, actually.

However, unlike Clark, he never bombed a Chinese embassy and he never bombed a civilian convoy and lied about it. When he was caught lying about the convoy bombing, he blamed it on a US pilot, as confirmed by his staff. Then Clinton fired him. And Clark should be the last person complaining about Iraq when he led the invasion of Yugoslavia. Talk about hypocrites.
Hmm... good points. I'd forgotten about the Chinese embassy. And now I'm remembering suspecting it may have been deliberate. I was in London when this all happened and it was quite an experience weaving through the crowds of angry protestors to do some sightseeing.

Believe me, I'm not enamored of Clark. Boy, I'd sure hate to be a general, though. At times of war, no matter what, you're going to make decisions that will stick in your conscience the rest of your life. I would think. I was against bombing Yugoslavia, but as I recall that decision was made by a president who also decided to circumvent the UN. Interestingly, Clark is picking up members of the Clinton team to help him with his election bid.

If Kerry is your man, that's great. I'm glad you've made a decision. I'm still not sure whom to pick. But I know I won't vote for him. Too many questionable votes on his record and too much waffling on Iraq.
