The contrast between Powell and Cheneys was stark.
I disagree with Powell on many issues. But he exuded competence and mastery of the subject. He would have been annointed our first Black president and been competent at it...if only his wife hadn’t vetoed the anointment.
Cheneys repeated the same cliches. Just as they did not know how to play a chess game in 2003 they didn’t know how to advance more than one move in the TV interview game.
We need to learn that competence is as important as being right on the issues.
Colin Powell shows up on a lazy Labor day weekend, Newt Gingrich, Sarah Palin show up too for old time’s sake. Debbie Wasserman Schultz is voting FOR the Iran treaty….who knew?
