Troll.

Ok Steph..He pretty much destroyed you. I think this calls for you to delete your account here..Suggestion: You'd prolly fit in with the Hannity trolls -->>Sean Hannity Discussion

Just who the fuck do you think you are? You've been here 5 fucking minutes and you think you can suggest other people delete their accounts. Ass.
 
I like Powell. Always have, probably always will. I wish he'd run for POTUS.

He lost my respect when there were no WMDs. And I believe that will ALWAYS be held against him and he would never win an election now.

Sometimes, we don't know what we don't know. I respect Powell. I'd probably vote for him. It is naive and stupid to think that he's never made a bad call.... we really need to stop expecting perfect people. I'd take Powell over every single member of congress - left or right - any day of the week and twice on Sundays.

I like Powell. But I think most of us think he knew he was lying.
 
I still can't fault him for the things he's saying now.

The truth is you are doing one of the things that makes our nation dysfunctional.

You absolve a piece of shit because NOW he's saying what you want to hear.

No, Xon, some of us accept that we will never find a perfect man or woman. I, for one, would not want a perfect one. I like my heroes to have feet of clay, human beings - warts and all.

A bad call that cost millions of lives.

There is feet of clay and then there are lying POS.

He's a lying POS.

He's less of a POS than any of the current crop of shit. I like him.
 
LOL, when Powell served with President Bush the left couldn't stand him, but today he is the sweetheart of the Left.:lol:

that's actually an out-and-out lie.

every time people were polled, they said they wanted him to be president....on both sides of the aisle.

he just shouldn't have let them use him to lie to the U.N. and people were legitimately angry with him for that because it helped legitimize a pretend war of choice.

but you really need to stop making stuff up.

Do you ever tell the truth? Ever? You know, midvar sheker tirchok and all that? You know that fealty to the Democratic Party is not among the 613, right?

The Right never had much use for Powell, who would have been forced into retirement long before he ever became a general had he not been Black. He certainly proved his incompetence at State.
The only reason the Left loves him now is he endorsed Obama.
 
The left was disappointed that CP got hooked in by the neo-cons and thrilled when he unhooked himself.

I would love him to run for the GOP nomination. He and Romney would make a ticket that 60% of us would vote for.
 
Powell endorsed Barak Hussein Obama.

Obviously, he still has political ambitions.
 
General, no matter when in history, I've always considered you to be a very intelligent man. Thank you for shoring up my beliefs.
 
Its to bad people like Dogbert really don't have a say about US policy since he is not a US citizen....

Am I only one who thinks he should worry more about the policies of his own country instead of ours.

Did I hear Bush done away with waterboarding?

I can see why he left the Bush Administration. He has a mind of his own.

You mean the assclown that lied to the world and then bailed on Chimp when things didn't go well in the war he fully supported and helped bring about, that Colin Powell?

Colin Powell is and was a great soldier. He didn't lie. He told what he thought was the truth. He was given a lie by people he trusted.

Remember, after 9/11, Bush had the highest approval rating of any president in recorded history. Who knew that he could be so misled by those around him. Of course, he was responsible because he was president, but he was in way over his head.

Bush and Powell were both terribly used in very different ways. But if anyone thinks Bush was bad, Palin would be a forest fire next to a "match". Unless she quit after two years. Then she would only be "half" as bad.

I don't know why everyone hangs on every word this man says about politics. I know he sounds nice and pushes out a commanding personality but anyone can do that so I wonder why is public presentation of oneself (aka acting) matter so much.

He is like a political baseball bat that gets swung by both sides. Personally, I don't see what this man has done that was so great other than have a appropriate personality for his job.

I think what most folks don't understand is that Powell is by nature a military man. His Commander in Chief asked him to make that case, so he made it. Period.

A person with a more civilian outlook might have balked at going to the UN and trying to make that case. Powell didn't. He had a job to do and he did it. He followed orders.

That's a mark on his career, but in my mind it is an excusible one. I'd still vote for him as a nominee for President should he want the job.
