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

Why is that?

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

Powell is a good example of someone who was "goosed" to greatness. He owes the bulk of his high profile success to Reagan, to HW Bush and to GWB. Not to mention that GWB appointed his son as Administrator of the FCC.

If nothing else, this latest outburst by him today, is evidence of his poor judgement. He criticizes Palin re her middle America value comments and says nothing about obama and his "clinger" commentary regarding middle America during his San Francisco fund raiser.

Bottom line: General Powell is an ass who got lucky and won't admit it.
