Good. At least one liberal has chided Belafonte, then.

Powell may already have done what Belafonte so passionately demands of him. .... After a string of policy-debate losses that had some of us urging principled resignation -- an interim state for Palestine, reengagement with North Korea, a containment approach to Iraq -- I'm thinking that Powell may finally have won one by getting the president to work through the United Nations. The irony. Powell has been the major moderating influence in the Bush administration and has been criticized by conservative voices on those policy issues. Yet it's the conservatives which come to his defense when liberals attack his character.
