CLARK CAN'T: We keep hearing

CLARK CAN'T: We keep hearing about how all the other generals who served with Wesley Clark can't stand him and don't want him to be president. Here's one reason why:
In an interview with Maxim that was published in the November issue, the General has this to say (not online, but quoted by blogger Rob Bernard):

In the 19th century, we were motivated by manifest destiny. In the 20th century, it was the idea that it was our duty to contain the spread of Communism and keep open the door for freedom. Today there is no substantial challenge to American ideals.

There's not? Excuse me? Those barbarians out there who want to kill us all, in large part because of our ideals? They're not a "substantial challenge"?
Clark just blew any chance of getting my vote; in fact, it's hard to find a Democrat in the race who hasn't blown it yet, and it's still 2003.
