Well, that's the only way to get quoted by the presstitutes nowadays.
More proof that Liberalism is a mental disorder, which, among other symptoms, manifests a loss of will for self-preservation.
With Powell, everything is always about him...how policy affected him, his job, his stature, blah, blah, blah. He has an ego to match Hillary's.
Never forget that Colin Powell is on the payroll of the Saudis and other Arabs!
Fact! He became an overnight millionaire after leaving the Clinton administration and becoming a paid advisor to the Arabs.
Check also the wealth accumulated by former Centcom Generals (ie Zinni (Powell's budy), McCaffrey, and others).
I wonder how much of the Nato Generalship has been corrupted by Saudi money. Many of them seem to be at the forefront of bootlicking the Muslims, as well.
