..WOOLSEY on FoX = "CLARKE doesn't listen to others"..
FoX News Channel 'On the Record' with Gretta VanSustren ^ | 3/24/2004 | JAMES WOOLSEY

Posted on 03/24/2004 8:08:37 PM PST by ALOHA RONNIE

NEVER FORGET

...Former CIA Director JAMES WOOLSEY was just on the FoX News Channel's 'On the Record' Show with GRETTA VanSUSTREN.

2 outstanding quotes re 911 Commission Hearings:

"Understanding the Past is a piece of understanding the Future"

"CLARKE does not listen to others once he locks onto a single point of view. Case in point would be the case for state-sponsored terrorism that CIA Director TENANT laid out before the 911 Commission today that CLARKE disagreed with"

...WOOLSEY = A man on a mission for CLARITY. ...CLARKE = A man on a mission for CONFUSION.

NEVER FORGET

I have to say, I feel for those who don't have FNC on their cable systems in this country. I've been watching the other news outlets this evening for a change, and one without FNC would get the impression Clarke fell on the sword in the White House and is being heralded as the wounded hero, rather than the incompetant former government employee he is.

Doesn't matter to me. He asked a question so I answered it. If he's a troll, he'll be zotted in good time.

clarke served three republican presidents and was last registered as a republican. Is nothing he says valid?

Well like Kerry it all depends on which version you believe. Like Kerry, Clarke has two stories for every subject.

Yes, nothing he says is valid, when provided with historical references he's attached to, dating back to the start of the Bush administration. His book is a pack of lies, and he knows it.

I saw this guy on CNBC tonight. He is one bitter person. How do such unbalanced people get jobs in the government?

"But really isn't it at least the tinest bit troubling when two major figures like Paul o'neil and clarke start saying things that corroborate eachother?"

They've both given conflicting statements publicly, under oath, and in writing, prior to coming out against Bush. One has to question why these individuals have flip-flopped. Hell, Condi Rice said she had lunch with Clarke several weeks after he'd resigned his post. Was the sneaky bastard trying to get some new dirt out of her? Pretend he's a friend and then stab her in the back? Why have lunch with someone you hate? Frankly, I'd be more willing to believe them if they hadn't been so supportive of the Bush White House before they penned their books. Consistency means alot to me. It goes along with credibility and O'Neill and Clarke have neither.

Thanks. Forgot to add that they all have that same predatory look about them as well.

I understand you all like Bush and all. Your option off course. Help me understand though how everyone just simply discounts information from people who disagree with the administration.

Some of Clarke's "facts" are not real. He doesn't tell you what a person has said that's damning, he tells you what he thinks they were thinking that was damning.

For instance, let's say Condi turned and said "nice day". Most folks would take her words at face value and assume she meant "nice day". Clark would ignore the words, look at her expression or her eyebrows, or whatever and "read" bizarre false meaning into her comment. Clark might say, "she said "nice day" but I could tell she wanted to tell me she didn't understand her job". Or that she wanted to fly or whatever. In other words, Clark doesn't tell us about Condi, he tells us about his own twisted projections.

This guy Cressy is tied to so many terror failures he should be investigated. It seem they are trying to ease their failures by trying shift the blame to others. Both Cressy and Clarke are the common factor in the ten to twelve years of failure to deal with the terror threat. They and not the past administrations are the ones at fault for not doing a more effective job in procting the USA.

IMHO It's easy to discount a true narcissist -- because whatever they say -- it's always about them.

o.k. I see I am not going to get anywhere by debating this whole deal with clarke. But I did recieve about two decent replys that made me pause for half a sec or so but I came to my senses. I guess my real question is "is there any legitmate complaint by anyone on the left against Bush or is he really just that perfect?" I can admitt to at least one or two legitmate complaints aginst some of my lefty, commie, hypiee dippie, tree hugging types that I love and admire by some of the necon types on the right. Surly there must be something about Bush? Any fair and balanced types out there on the right?
