I recently did a search for Norman Schwarzkopf to see what he was up to, and discovered he turned 78 in August. I turned 65 in August too, but it's hard to believe so much time has passed since we first heard his name.
This “honorable” man left “Scooter” Libby twisting in the wind to suffer for a “crime” he was not responsible for. It’s the same kind of person who would vote for someone like 0bama, and still call himself a Republican. The man is a disgrace.
Powell is an affirmative action opportunist who will always allow race to trump reason. As Norman Schwarzkopf is quoted as telling a staff member in Riyadh in "The Generals' War", "Powell is a political genius ... but he lacks the stomach for war."
Also, lest we forget, Powell dropped the ball when he failed to support commanders requests for heavy armor and AC-130s in Somalia.

Well stated.
As a Desert Storm vet, I agree with Schwarzkopf 100%. Powell does not have "the stomach for war" and IMHO, we had to fight Gulf War II" with a smaller Army because of it. We should have been allowed to finish off the Iraqi army during Desert Storm.
GHWB, actually.
It is only natural that African communists are going to support each other.
I wouldn’t let it bother me. Try to chill.

You are correct, but he was Bush’s boy.
Powell’s endorsement was as a Republican, that is now long gone.
Colon Bowel is all over Discovery Channel and TVLand...about the only channels I watch nowadays.
I have to turn the channel every time I see his face.
