Democrat rivals pounce on Wesley Clark's political history

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Retired Gen. Wesley Clark's rivals for the Democratic presidential nomination are accusing him of switching parties out of political convenience.

They're pointing to the positive comments Clark made about the Bush administration at a Republican fund-raiser two years ago.

Howard Dean is questioning Clark's judgment in praising Vice President Dick Cheney and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld in the speech.

Senator Joseph Lieberman says he was fighting what Clark has called President Bush's "reckless economic strategy" while Clark was raising money for Republicans.

And John Kerry's campaign argues Clark was more specific in his praise of the Bush administration two years ago than he is in explaining why he's a newly minted Democrat.

Self serving bastards are going to keep Bush in office if they do not watch it.

i think it's evidence that none of the 11 or 12 deserve to be elected. they've made outright fool's of themselves, and i doubt that the american people want any of these ignorant fuck's in the white house for 4 years.

They haven't even scratched the surface of the fools Bush and his cabinet have made of themselves and most of the sheepish American public.

seriously laughable. the 11 dwarf's have made some of the most dis-tasteful comment's i have ever heard coming from such high-ranking political figures. i have already lost all respect from each and everyone of them; well, except for lieberman. i have to say i have respect for the guy. he atleast keep's the bush bashing to a minimum, if even that. and he tell's the american people what he can do for the country, not what dubya has not done.
