IMO, it is the opposite. He is attacking, as a Democrat, the major Democrat in the country. That supports his credibility I think.

I would be shocked if CBS or any other network brings up Powell's comments from today........

Powell's response regarding Gore was great, but did you notice the pathetic response when questioned about the Saudi's role in payments to the families of suicide bombers? I almost fell out of my chair when he said something like, "They just felt they were helping unfortunate people." What's up with that????

Can anyone forget that disgustingly phony kiss he gave Tipper? It's like even his sex life is merely for show. Truly this guy will do anything to win. He's hollow except for his lust for power and the Presidency which is a terrifying reality. He has lied, sacrificed and sold his soul for politics, and I hope he is stopped in his tracks. He looks like a total goon, imbecile and geek.

OH, GOD, SOMEBODY PLEASE HELP ME.......

O.K. HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!!!

One really has to wonder if these people believe this bilge (and I know bilge very well after spending an hour in one today so we didn't have to get a tow back to port ;-), or is it just for sheeple consumption.

Miller said she established Ijaz's lack of credibility by contacting former Clinton administration sources.

Judith Miller is a total media whore; she shows up on every TV show under the sun. We should be lying in wait for the next time she shows up on a show that has call-ins, like Washington Journal or Larry King Live, and totally nail her on this, no matter the supposed subject of the show.

>>Clinton friendly media reporters like the New York Times' Judith Miller and NBC newswoman Andrea Mitchell have explained their own decisions not to cover Ijaz's claims by saying he lacks credibility. Miller said she established Ijaz's lack of credibility by contacting former Clinton administration sources.

Oh, THAT'S just rich! Top notch source verification if I say so myself. Here's a parallel to it:

Andrea Mitchell: Lord Satan, we have a quote from the Reverend Billy Graham that you are an evil deceiver, manipulator, and destroyer of lives in your effort to steal souls for your kingdom of Hell. Any comment?

Satan:Graham is a liar.

Mitchell:Well, Tom, there you have it. The Reverand Billy Graham is a liar. Back to you.

You are right, of course, but maybe this will be like Enron- so many fingers pointing at the Dems & the clintons that they'll go silent. One can hope...

The thing about Powell is this: He is high-threshold (he will put up with a LOT of BS), but he is also high-yield (once he has taken enough, you are burnt toast).

[mware]

I completey believe his story, not to mention he has documentation.

If I am not mistaken Ijaz has SIGNED documents to back up his story.

[Recovering_Democrat]

Nice to see Secretary Powell making some partisan, anti-Clinton remarks.

May their deaths be avenged!
The takeover of Saudi Arabia would be the thing to do.

I hope you mean Lt. Col. Bill Cowan. He is one sharp fella. The other guy people mention is not in the same league.

Here is more about Cowan: Cowan

Colin Powell seemed to be completely with the team today Why the big change?

Bill Sammon details in his book At Any Cost how Lieberman lied on the TV talk shows about what he knew about the attempt to disqualify the military ballots in Florida.

Wasn't it before a New Hampshire audience that Al Gore denied knowing about Juanita Broaddrick's charges? To judge by the way the pressies on C-SPAN deny knowing about inconvenient issues, this would appear to be a standard leftist MO.

The blood of our murdered sailors and citizens cries from the ground for justice, and it is being achieved, but not because of ANY effort by that former clueless administration.

The former administration was very far from being clueless, it was complicit.

Actually thinking of the younger guy with the dark goat. He always intertwines the specific questions of the reporter with the "big picture", while many talking heads get bogged down in the minutia, although details are needed. I just like the context and perspective he puts things.
Haven't seen much of the guy in your pic. Regards.
