It actually amazes me Clark has supporters.
The man has flip flopped on so many issues, so many times that it's almost comical. Almost.

For example?

You do know that Drudge was incredibly dishonest in his reporting, don't you?

Drudge is using the ellipse as a weapon, with malice aforethought.
Clark's statement that \"Saddam Hussein is a threat\" came from his opening remarks to the committee. An ellipse then carries the reader more than 11,500 words later into the transcript to a second quotation. Finally, Drudge uses the next ellipse to jump way back to the beginning of Clark's testimony. The effect is to make Clark's testimony sound more frantic than it really is and to incorrectly suggest that Clark had endorsed the war.

You can find Clark's entire testimony here. If you read it, the difference between what he said and what Drudge says he said is petty clear.

I'l be honest, it's too late for me to read the 40 pages in your second link but as far as your first link..
Can't each and every candidate, including GW, claim that their true intentions were erroneously reported to suit someones agenda?

That is modern day politics, that's the game.

I'm sure everyone's had their words distorted. Doesn't make it right.

Cause they've only been online 4 days, possibly.

Bush won me over when he highlighted his major platforms for his next term:

1. Getting rid of steroids in baseball.
2. Keeping married couples together.

I think those are the 2 biggest issues our country is dealing with today. He's got me vote.

[Flock of Moosen]

I'm not sure who I'm backing yet, but I will say I find it an extremely sad state of affairs that a lot of people are only backing Kerry because they think he's the only one with a shot to beat Bush. This is the criteria now for choosing a President?
Whatever happened to picking who you think is best suited to lead your country?

And come November people will start saying "I'm voting for ________ because he is the 'lesser of two evils'" That makes me want to punch someone in the face. You voted for the guy because you liked him better. Admit it.
