1. Once again, Clark shows how he is . . .

an officer, a scholar, and a gentleman!

Love how he intertwines historical perspective with his current view of the arts, taxes, etc.

Run WES Run. . .but, of course, when YOU are ready!

I didn't know Reg interviewed Wes. She was great, just great.

Finally, somebody interviewed him on something other than foreign policy. GO REG!!

Did you notice how he credited Kerry with having talked about a topic? We hear Wes (ie "surge in diplomacy") everywhere and nobody says, "Wes Clark talks about this." He's a jewel. And he's taken up the violin. Actually, fiddler on the roof is kind of fitting. Is ANYBODY hearing?

Edit: I'm an ass.

9. I did notice him giving props to Kerry.

It was about corporate welfare.

And I agree -- people are suddenly using policy points, even EXACT phrases verbatim, that the General has been saying for years, without a single mention of him. (And he took all the heat when he first said them years ago.) Good for him for giving credit to Kerry for being another person who spoke about corporate welfare. :thumbsup:

8. I loved it!!

I LOVED hearing him talk about the arts, and his violin!!

Of course, the other topics were important too, and a nice change of pace (and as always, The General's answers were clear and insightful), but that one's dear to my heart.

Very fun, informative interview! :D
