Powell just spent what little political capital he had left. Alas, he was NEVER a true Reoublican and will NEVER AGAIN be accepted as a Republican.

Sadly, he lost me after being simply a political hack with his
nearly substance-free presentation before the United Nations
before we rolled into Iraq.

Don't paint me as anti-war. Saddam was like an ugly wound that
needed lanced OR walled off.
Where I'm going is how disappointed I was when Powell later said
he basically didn't believe in what he said during that presentation.

If he'd simply said "We don't have the goods on Saddam. And I'm
now resigning as Sec. of State." I'd have some level of respect
for him.

Now Powell has totally "Jumped The Shark" like Fonzi.
It's a disgraceful to a fairly good career.

“will never again be accepted as a Republican”
-——I like the idea of a website which enumerates
, takes to task, and proves just who “deserves to have
their medals stripped”, as in the time-honored military
way, done in a public ceremony. These days it would be
a cyber-ceremony, but would have to go further than what
we have now, which is just flinging around the word “RINO”. Notice how many RINOs there are, and maybe one
“DINO” , who I guess would have to be Joe Leiberman.
