1. Has he been on yet?
Edited on Wed Jun-30-04 08:11 AM by Vote_Clark_In_WI
how long to I have to watch these morAns while I'm waiting??? What a bunch of dopes! The Three Stooges Do the News

on edit: as of 8:10 central, he hasn't been on yet. I've had it muted most of the time, but just heard the tail end of "We'll have General Wesley Clark on Live" - I think talking about Saddam's trial.

3. on what show ? i really hope it's o'reilly
i would love to see him kick o'reilly's ass. but i'm guessing it's one of those news shows with rotating hosts earlier in the day rather than o'reilly, hannity or one of those types .

5. Just on
The morning news show. He was talking about Saddam and the upcoming trial. He was asked about VP and took the opportunity to promote Kerry and the need for better leadership in view of conditions in the Middle East. Got a great last line in. The host said, to be fair, these situations existed before this administration. Wes said, "To be fair, this administration brought it all to a head." (wording close)

7. Well, there were some multiple clause, cross-talk etc.
But there was a 'yes' there that does indeed seem like a teeniney change in the diplomatic wall of even-handed answers we've had heretofore.

But I definitely heard it as yes, he would do it if asked, not that he had been picked. He said that was confidential, or course.

Transcript!

9. Upon additional coffee calibration,
he's said that in the past, that there were circusdances under which he would accept VP.

Anyway, he is SO good on tv!

8. Um...well...
Not sure on that. Ice will have it up and we can dissect the words. There was a yes, but I'm not sure he meant what you're bouncing on.

But I will join you :bounce:

11. I missed the whole thing but
even if he didn't say it, I know he'd take it if offered and the fact that he's on TV so much lately is enough reason for me to join you in the bounce! :bounce:

12. No question
Even if he didn't want to do it, and I don't know if he does or he doesn't, he would do it if Kerry asked. He would move the earth if Kerry asked. Wes Clark does not know how not to serve his country.

13. OK, not yes that he's the guy
Edited on Wed Jun-30-04 09:02 AM by Vote_Clark_In_WI
but he didn't say, "That's not what I'm interested in" or whatever that line has been...

Edited to say that that (the line above) was what has always been there whenever I've heard him answer the question, and that was not there today! (back to bouncing :bounce:)

..."there is speculation out there that you might be a vp candidate. Do you want to address that?"

"Well John Kerry has a confidential process and I haven't said anything about that process, so what I've said is, Yes, I believe the country has been headed in the wrong direction, and I'm going to do everything I can to help John Kerry get elected because I think, John, when you look at this situation in Iraq right now, step back for a second and look at the region and ask are we really better off than we were...

"I think we really need strong leadership to pull us through."

"What we did in Iraq really brought these to a head."

so I'm stickin' with my bouncin'!!! :bounce:

10. The Clark media blitz continues
This is awesome, is there any doubt who Kerry wants to represent the dems on national security/Iraq issues?

21. Hey, did you "downgrade" to Windows Media 7.O? Because,
this clip is actually loading for me (slowly, but it's loading)...
Windows 9.0 was a no go on my system....

Thanks....Real Player and WM 7.0+ works for all of us less than
technologically advanced types.........
