“No it would not be, probably be a disaster IMHO but since when has that ever been a deterrent to Obama?”
With Stroker, the pattern is that if it’s harmful to the country, he’ll run with it. SecDef Powell would be as huge a disaster as Robert McNamara in my humble but honest opinion.
Thus, he’ll do it.
He’s got to energize his base, too.
“*sigh*”

I was thinking the same thing, Clark is just the kind of a$$hole Obama would love to have there.
I would have thought of him as a good choice, experienced as he is, but since the Scooter Libby episode where he and Armitage lent themselves to Fitzgerald’s game (and let an innocent man take the fall knowingly) I’ve lost what respect I still had for him. The Libby episode was a character test that he and Armitage failed. At least Armitage spoke out in the end, after it was too late to help Libby. Powell never did.
For the best description yet of Colon Bowel, see the excellent post at #10.

Well said and exactly right. I've said it before and I'll say it again, Powell is a man without honor.
