“Ive always thought Colin Powell a good and decent man. That he left the Bush Administration (was invited to leave, actually) because he disagreed with Bush on the handling of the Iraq war was unfortunate, but the man stood his ground. He might see it necessary to get back into the political arena if it means for the good of his country.”
I think it was Powell who told Bush re: Iraq...”you break it, you own it”.
He’d be able to stab Republicans in general, Americans in particular, in the back again with official standing.
The over-reaching hubris of this woman is absolutely stunning. Have you ever noticed that every sentence out of her mouth has 3 or 4 "I's" in it? That's all I can say right now without popping a blood vessel in my head...
Tap, Tap, Tap, Just tap it in. Just tap it in. Give it a little tappy tap tap taparoo...
Restore our image? Sheesh. Winning in Iraq will do the trick.
Oh, rolling eyes! Not CP again. He was dreadful the first time around.
Im not usually a tinfoil type, but this whole thing screams of some Clinton-Bush dynasty alliance sort of thing.The Bush family does exhibit a depressing propensity to suck up to liberals. Poppa Bush was practically down on his knees to the Fat Swimmer a few years back at the opening of the Poppa Library.
No way she could be stupid enough to mention Powells name at a campaign event without having previously cleared it with him. Powell is too big a name to just drop haphazard.
Powell has apparently turned to the dark side - officially. Expect to see him being used as the antidote to ‘not enough experience in foreign policy’ from the Hillary squad.
I think it was Powell who told Bush re: Iraq...you break it, you own it.
Right. And wise counsel it was. In other words - no withdrawal until the job is done.
Just more Clintonspeak. It all depends on what the meaning of the word “like” is. Like what? A man? A Black? etc.
But I also must comment on the whole “restore America’s image” thing. There was a thread the other day that was saying it: the world doesn’t hate us; it’s the world’s lefties that hate us...
Powell should publicly say he would not work with her.
The Colin Powell thing has always escaped me.
Good riddance to the guy.
She must be running out of qualified, UGLY women to fill posts.
The pandering NEVER stops with her!!
I don’t believe ANYTHING that comes out of her mouth!
“The last black guy the Clintons tapped ended up dead in an airplane crash.”
...with a bullet in his head and they closed and sealed the autopsy report on Ron Brown faster than a speeding bullet!
Colin Powell let a man be destroyed when he KNEW the truth....Scooter Libby was NOT the leak, the lefty Armitage, Colin’s Deputy, was and he let Scooter spend MILLIONS. Powell is a PATHETIC man who was NEVER pro-Bush.
Let's also review his Supreme Court appointee.
He sure did and when Powell did that he might as well painted a sign on his chest what he truly was and is.
Disgusting!
