re: Huh? You all have short memories. Powell is the guy that sold us down the river. He used his credibility to get people behind Bush's invasion of Iraq even after the Brits told him the stuff he was presenting to the UN....the crap about truck trailers shown in satellite shots being used to brew up chemicals.....was all horseshit. I would never vote for anyone who worked for Bush during his first term.......no one!

Probably not... but Powell is first and always the "good soldier". That creates a different mindset; he may argue in the background, but he will always be on the side of his commander in public. Always. It's in the code of ethics.


I have the highest repect for your opinion but I would never vote for someone who sold us down the river either because he is a "good soldier", or because he "will always be on the side of his commander in public". IMO those are not admirable qualities when an Iraq presents itself. I much prefer to vote for someone who knew like you and I from the get go that Iraq was a sham and said so.
