In any event, I was highly supportive of C. Powell, and admired the
way he chose not to run for president...saying bluntly that he would
not put his family through the trivial and anal "exposé's" of the
press. Yet, this man - whose scruples I admired - seems to have lost
them (scruples) while serving in the Bush administration. Or do you
think that he 'served' and did his 'duty' regardless of the morals of
his superiors?


I think Colin Powell's speech in front of the UN was the low
point of an otherwise distinguished career. When you lay down
with swine, you can't help but smell bad yourself.

That speech ruined Powell's reputation, and he's ****ed. A recent Powell
quote is revealing: "History is a dish best served cold." Substitute
"revenge" for "history".

His former chief of staff, Lawrence Wilkerson, has been criticizing the
lies that got us into the Iraq debacle, obviously with Powell's blessing.
