1) I'll discuss what and whom I choose because really, this isn't about Clark. This is about why you feel it's necessary to single out a military veteran for criticism, when the civilians who do worse get a pass. What you took as a personal attack was only questioning why you may actually be harder on Clark than most of us would be on a convicted criminal.

2) If you'd ever been shot, perhaps you'd appreciate the difference between getting shot and getting shot at.

3) There is no UN "position" on DU or cluster bombs. You have cited one UN document, produced by a single UN agency, that speaks to those weapons and "urges all States to be guided in their national policies by the need to curb the production and the spread of ... cluster bombs... and weaponry containing depleted uranium." Then you linked to the opinions of a non-UN organization as to why DU and cluster bombs should be covered by existing law. But the question remains, are they illegal? They are not.

4) You will not answer the counter-questions I pose, but instead shift to different questions altogether. It shows you are not really interested in debate or discussion, but only playing word games.

5) Ok, so I get that you will never vote for Clark. Who gives a fuck?
