Former Secretary of State Colin Powell came out in support of President Obamas agreement to curb Irans 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.

LOL. Hey, libs, is this the same Colin Powell who you blasted for LYING TO THE UNITED NATIONS?
There are not “photo-shopped” either!https://images.search.yahoo.com/yhs/search;_ylt=A0LEVjW.2.xV.mMA7lUnnIlQ;_ylu=X3oDMTByMjB0aG5zBGNvbG8DYmYxBHBvcwMxBHZ0aWQDBHNlYwNzYw—?p=Powell+Farrakhan&fr=yhs-mozilla-002&hspart=mozilla&hsimp=yhs-002
And this guy was a general and SOS? Wow. What a disappointment.
Powell impressed me during the initial Iraq war with all his knowledge during his press briefers.
Since then I am absolutely convinced that this guy is as dumb as a box of dog waste.
