GENERAL CLARK PRAISED CONDI, POWELL, RUMSFELD AND BUSH: 'WE NEED THEM THERE'
**World Exclusive**
Democratic presidential hopeful General Wesley Clark offered lavish praise for the Bush Administration and its key players in a speech to Republicans -- just two years ago, the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal!

During extended remarks delivered at the Pulaski County GOP Lincoln Day Dinner in Little Rock, Arkansas on May 11, 2001, General Clark declared: "And I'm very glad we've got the great team in office, men like Colin Powell, Don Rumsfeld, Dick Cheney, Condoleezza Rice... people I know very well - our president George W. Bush. We need them there."
A video of Clark making the comments has surfaced, DRUDGE can reveal.

Clark praised Reagan for improving the military:
"We were really helped when President Ronald Reagan came in. I remember non-commissioned officers who were going to retire and they re-enlisted because they believed in President Reagan."
Clark continued: "That's the kind of President Ronald Reagan was. He helped our country win the Cold War. He put it behind us in a way no one ever believed would be possible. He was truly a great American leader. And those of us in the Armed Forces loved him, respected him, and tremendously admired him for his great leadership."
Clark on President George Bush: "President George Bush had the courage and the vision... and we will always be grateful to President George Bush for that tremendous leadership and statesmanship."
Clark on American military involvement overseas:
"Do you ever ask why it is that these people in these other countries can't solve their own problems without the United States sending its troops over there? And do you ever ask why it is the Europeans, the people that make the Mercedes and the BMW's that got so much money can't put some of that money in their own defense programs and they need us to do their defense for them?"
"And I'll tell you what I've learned from Europe is that are a lot of people out in the world who really, really love and admire the United States. Don't you ever believe it when you hear foreign leaders making nasty comments about us. That's them playing to their domestic politics as they misread it. Because when you talk to the people out there, they love us. They love our values. They love what we stand for in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and the Bill of Rights."

"the DRUDGE REPORT can reveal!"

kind of an odd thing to say, that you CAN reveal something. not 'will' or 'are', but CAN. but whatever. thats the Drudge report for you.

he supports Colin Powell? wow, there's a shocker. wonder why he would say that? and reagan? yep, id have to agree with him there. reagan did some great things, including building up the military. whats your point? oh right, you subscribe to the ethos that its "one party or the other forever, now pick!". how very closed-minded of you. by the way, he stated later that his political view has changed over time. people do that, you know. well, intelligent people.

so is your post mean you are SUPPORTING clark, since he complimented your boys in the past? if so, we FINALLY agree that CLark will make a great prez!

VOTE CLARK!
