There is a lot of bad blood between Powell and the Bush administration.

Why is that?


Recall the whole Plame affair, and the huge beating that Bush, Cheney, Rove and Libbey took over it. The investigation, and in Libbey's case a perjury trial and conviction. All over who leaked Valerie Plame's name to the press, when Fitzpatrick and Powell knew from the start it was Powell's good buddy Richard Armitage. Powell protected Armitage and let the Bush administration take terrific damage for a charge he knew they were innocent of.
