Absolutely. In Powell's case I feel it is sour grapes over Iraq but I feel sad as he has served his country over many years and I wish he had dealt with his differences in private and probably resigned during the first Bush administration rather than what has transpired since.

A man who was once respected by a broad church now is looked upon by many a traitor (MSM will still of course try to paint him a hero for dissension - dissension is OK but in the correct way).

Exactly reflect my & most others sentiments snugs, thanks.

I think what is more likely is that we have more information about him. He can work to redeem himself, but at this point it's hard to see that he thinks that he did anything that would undermine his credibility, honor and reputation.

Regardless of his or Armitage's political views about the Iraqi war, they allowed a monstrous lie to grow for years.

Their silence subverted Truth and was/is dishonorable and immoral.

Public disclosure and humiliation is not enough punishment for undermining the Administration's effort to protect all of us. This behavior used to be called treason.

Re: Colin Powell...

I seem to remember a couple of pictures on the DOSE thread of President and Mrs. Bush entering Colin Powell's home for dinner...and that was very long ago...

How could Powell invite them to his home, after betraying President Bush like he did?
