28. He DID.
Damnit to hell.

NOW do you understand why Clarkies are constantly saying the news media ignored him? Do you fucking get it, yet?

Clark talked about this in 2001, in 2002, in 2003 and was either ignored or called insane for bringing it up.

He DID talk to reporters about this.

He DID try to get coverage.

But, THEY failed - derelict in their duty - to report on it - and when they DID report on it, they called him insane.

Clark has made his charge a central plank of his presidential campaign. Clark writes in his book, "Winning Modern Wars," that in November 2001, during a visit to the Pentagon, he spoke with "a man with three stars who used to work for me," who told him a "five-year plan" existed for military action against not only Afghanistan and Iraq, but also "Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia, and Sudan." Clark has embellished this story on the campaign trail, going so far as to say, "There's a list of countries."

Clark's proof? None. He never saw the list. But, the general recently told the Arkansas Democrat-Gazette, "You only have to listen to the gossip around Washington and to hear what the neoconservatives are saying, and you will get the flavor of this."

You probably get the flavor of what Wesley Clark is saying, too. It tastes, as THE SCRAPBOOK pointed out three weeks ago, like baloney. And sometimes, as in the case of yesterday's interview with Blitzer, it tastes like three-week-old baloney.

Is November 2001 not fucking early enough for you people?
