Hi DU, I don't usually post but thanks to mntsnake post: (Link) I decided to peck out a post (I'm no typist!) I came into this election cycle a major Clarkie. General Clark's testimony to congress in the run up to the Iraq war inspired me to the draft Clark movement. I was disappointed he decided not to attempt a second run.

There is a moral equation here which history, morality and human decency requires that we look at. What gives the United States of ...

I am a lurker since Oct '03. I don't post to much cause I tend to be long winded on what I feel passionate about. Then the thread is gone! But your post spoke to me .
