Wes Clark "quotes" from Hannity and Colmes (his Faux debut)

[Rowdyboy]

He would not let the slimy bastard Hannity use him or box him in....

Hannity leads off demanding Clark apologize for Durbin's remarks....

"I'm not gonna condemn him, Sean. I think we have a real issue here and the issue is how we are perceived to have treated those people down in Guantanamo. On top of everything that happened at Abu Graib, on top of the bad press we've gotten throughout the Arab world-all of that puts our soldiers at risk. Now I'd fight anybody that compared our soldiers to Nazis because that's simply not the case. I know the men and the women in the United States army, a lot of'em, and I know how they've been trained. We do respect the Geneva Convention and we do understand what it means. But I'll tell you what we have here, we have a real policy issue for our country.

"We've gotta get buy-in from other nations around the world onhow to deal with these terrorists and other people we've captured."

Sean rants the typical shit again about Durbin and includes Dean's remarks....

"Sean, I think we gotta focus on whats really at issue here. This shouldn't be a political issue. What it is, is a policy issue. This is where the people of the United States, our government, we have to pull together, we have to get a solution to what's really happening down there in Guantanamo.

"We've gotta get buy-in from people around the world. Bring 'em over, let 'em see how they're being treated, let 'em look and evaluate the evidence, figure out what's the best way to deal. Some of these people, if they were released, would attack us again. We can't let them go. Some of them, maybe they should be charged.

"We need a process that the world understands and has legitimacy in their eyes. That's what's really an issue here."

Alan Colmes brings up the fact that Santorum compared Democrats to Nazi's during the judicial filibuster debate. Clark's response:

""Alan, I think you bring up two very good points. But I think the real issue is to get the politics past the name calling. There's an old rule in politics and I seen it many times; whoever uses the "Nazi" word first loses. We oughta get past this name calling, past the politics and the partisan politics on this because we have a national security issue here, and the country needs to focus on it, our leadership needs to focus on it and we can't if we're just calling names back and forth at each other".

Hannity takes a few more cheap shots and the debut is over....

I'm prouder of General Clark every day. He was masterful here, didn't give an inch, didn't allow himself to fall into any traps, and dominated the conversation. His career on Fox is gonna make Brit Hume's head explode. Bank it!
