Because he's one of the fall guys for this illegal war

7. Not a shred of credibility between the two of them.
Pseudo-journalist chews the fat with pseudo-diplomat.

I think I'll watch cartoons. It seems more real ...

15. Me too.
I bet he deeply regrets getting caught up with the Bush cronies. At least he had the decency to resign from the administration. I'm hoping he gave lots of info to Fitzgerald that will indict the Bush criminals. If anyone would want to right a wrong I think it'd be him. (he has a conscience, unlike the rest of them).

18. Still buying that "good soldier" crap?
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 09:41 PM by FlemingsGhost
Colin has been on board since Poppy Bush laid out his vision of a "New World Order." His son heading the FCC was a regretful coincidence?

Oh, well ... there are some who think OJ is innocent, too.

23. Without people like Powell in the administration their would be no chance
of anyone leaking info. Powell knows what guilt is. (Bush Co. does not). A guilty conscience will start the confessions coming. (hopefully to Fitzgerald).

24. You give Powell far too much credit
He's lived with a guilty conscience since his Vietnam days.

10. I knew better than Colin Powell the intelligence on Iraq?
Imagine that!! Me, a schmo in Georgia was more informed than the Sec of State by reading, of all things, newspapers!!! I actually read past the first page onto page 10 and got the truth, wow, poor ole Powell was just fooled. Hope he sleeps well at night.

13. Colin's a disgrace. Instead of trying to talk his way back into society,
he should just buy a farm somewhere and disappear.

20. He should say "I'm ready to stand before the Hague w/ all of Bush Inc"
otherwise, he should shut the fuck up and stop wasting our time with his bullshit mea culpas....No absolution for him.

25. No military option for IRAN!
That's interesting that he said that. Maybe the reason why he is out of the * admin?

26. After the good Doctor's tirade against Cheney yesterday, I'm inspired to
say "Go fuck yourself, John Stossel......go fuck yourself."


Oh yea...I should mention that I'm a bit behind everyone watching on my DVR. I'll fast forward and catch up!
