My mom had cancer. Chemo, radiation, they destroy the immune system, apparently.

And I’m sick of everyone attributing General Powell’s death to Covid. He was 85, for goodness sakes, and had underlying co-morbidities.

He served the country well, though he did vote for Obama and apparently Hillary. ?

But he lived a long and very brave life; from what I understand, he served in Vietnam.

He was a good man. RIP, Gen. Powell. And condolences to his family.

Was it Mark Twain that said I never killed anyone but read many an obituary with great satisfaction?

We didn’t attribute his death to COVID. The hospital did! Stop being such a science denier.

“He was a good man. RIP, “

He let Scotty Libby be wrongly convicted in the Plame affair, he knew Armitage was the leaker but did not tell Bush.

He was a good man.

No he wasn't, and I refuse to auto-mourn. That good guy stuff ended when he shook that little bottle of faux "yellow cake" and told the worked Saddam had it and was going to kill us all. It was a lie that killed millions. Tonight he's where he belongs.
