"Former NATO Commander Clark Rips Bush at Frankfort event"


http://www.lex18.com/Global/story.asp?S=5453110&nav=menu203_1_22

"Former NATO commander and Democratic presidential candidate Wesley Clark blasted President Bush on Sunday, saying he has been "derelict in his duty as commander in chief."

Clark, speaking at the Kentucky Democratic Party's second annual "family day" event in Frankfort, Bush ignored a warning from former President Bill Clinton about Osama bin Laden.

"For eight months, Bush did nothing - nothing. No plan. No action. No diplomacy. No intelligence. No meetings," said Clark, who is scheduled to make campaign stops Monday in Campbellsville, Hopkinsville, Paducah, Owensboro and Brandenburg.

..."The truth is, the Republicans have got us stuck in a mess and they don't have a way out," said Clark, who sought the Democratic nomination for president in 2004.

7. Not quite on their hands. Busy with their "energy" plan aka WAR ON IRAQ
Divying up anticipated booty very time consuming.

9. Au contraire -- Deadeye Dick formed the "Dabhol Working Group"
In the NSC -- to get Ken Lay paid for the underperforming Dabhol power plant in India. So Dick turned the highest national security body in the land into a collection agency for Enron.

8. Clark rocks
Notice how many from the military are turning with a vengeance against BushCo. I know you can't do that until you leave the military, but I can only guess how many more would be speaking up if they could without getting courmartialed.
