Former Secretary of State Colin Powell came out in support of President Obama’s agreement to curb Iran’s nuclear program, calling it a “pretty good deal.”
Powell, a retired general who led the State Department under GOP President George W. Bush, said he had vigorously studied the deal and listened to arguments from both supporters and opponents.
“My judgment after balancing those two sets of information is that it’s a pretty good deal,” Powell declared on NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
“The great concern from the opposition is that we’re leaving open a lane for Iran to create a nuclear weapon in 10 to 15 years,” he added. “The reality is that they have been on a super highway for the last 10 years to create a nuclear weapon … with no speed limit.”
Powell's position drew praise from Obama.

If you just run to the center on every issue more people will think you are smart. No thought required.
If Obama and Kerry have no clue what is in the “deal”, how would Powell know what is in it?
who cares what Sphincter thinks. He is almost always wrong so his support means that the truth is the opposite.
I watched that interview. Some things never change. Powell was weak and foolish when Dubya made him SOS and he still is.
You’re pretty darn stupid and gullible aren’t you Colon Bowel movement?
“Powell - he covered-up the My Lai massacre;”
And was point man for the Agent Orange denial campaign in the military.
“Irritable Bowel, is another reason for “no more Bushes!”
WTF?...These people don’t even have an instinct for self preservation!
Colon Bowel speaks.
Gee Mr. Powell, if they’ve been on a “superhighway” towards a bomb for the past 10 years or so... I guess you are admitting that the “smart sanctions” you championed were in fact utterly useless? A**-hat.
I wouldn’t trust Powell’s opinion on a piece of fruit, let alone the security of our nation.
Has this photo been photoshopped? Was Powell realign with Farrakahn?
So much for Colon Bowel.
A moron who once had a knack for appearing thoughtful and intelligent.

Just one of the long line of conservative Justin Beibers conservatives pretend to have never cared for.
colon bowel is a disgrace to humanity.
So does his wife, who infamously thought he shouldn’t run for POTUS because he would be killed.
Just.....damn. Powell had spent most of his credibility with me on the Scooter Libby thing.....but this takes it below zero. What is next.....’Hands up. don’t shoot.’ or ‘fry ‘em like bacon”.
