I have always thought Powell was the best of the Bush cabinet. Now it becomes obvious he is.

Amen Dave, and just think this one actually served in the military too!! I read another article on this subject where Powell is quoted saying to Bush (my recollection, not word for word) "After this war you will own Iraq and all of its people, Ownership brings problems." Very true words - the banner on my News Tribune this morning says 99 GI's dead in April. It is such a comfort that GW feels no doubt in his actions. I'm sure that will help the families of those GI's sleep better tonight.

CP......YOU'RE FIRED!!!

I always thought it is important for a president to have people from other parties and viewpoints in his admin. Powell is a moderate at best and I have trouble with several of his positions. I do think he brings balance to the thought process. It was clear we were beating our head against the wall with the UN.

Well Aunty, that still leaves you-know-who (Ralph Nader) and you-know-what (Jesse Ventura)

I purposely left out Lynden LaRouche and Pat Paulson. (is he even still alive?)

More lies to sell books

I thought it was interesting today to hear Powell in his own words refute most of what the rabid dogs on the left have latched onto. He also said it was the president who instructing him and others in the administration to cooperate with Woodward by answering his questions. Looks like Woodward may have embellished things alot...perhaps to create scandal and sell books? YA THINK?

Entrepreneurialism and capitalism by using his freedoms guaranteed through the Bill of Rights. Ain't that the American way?

Gramps,

As a youthful conservative, that's probably what you thought when Woodward and Bernstein broke the Watergate story too... huh?

Not so 4Salt....When Woodward and Bernstein wrote about Watergate I was much too concerned with bangin beaver and poundin beers than worrying about tricky Dick and the gang.
