Don't tell me "no," John. I heard Janine Garofalo make that exact argument on Fox and Friends yesterday. What an intellectual heavyweight. The commentators or whatever they are called are airheads, too, but what do you expect from early morning happy talk?
Oh well, if she said it then it must be true. After all everyone knows she speaks for "the left." Guess I missed that meeting. Better check my schedule.
Maybe you didn't notice the "included." There are plenty of reasons for being opposed to the war, but some people don't trust Powell or anybody else in the administration. Some of them post on this thread.
Well, "trust" is not ever an easy word to apply to those in power, except perhaps as a relative term. If I were asked whether I "trusted" Powell more than Bush, I would, obviously say yes. If I were asked if I "trusted" the statements of this administration, I would have to ask which ones you had in mind. If you were to ask me about Powell's presentation before the UN, his first presentation, you could check back to my contemporaneous response, that I had a problem with his attempt to link Al Q to Saddam, I thought his evidence was weak at best, but his discussion of the biological and chemical stuff seemed persuasive. |
