Damn you Colin.

You're such an incredibly smart guy with a wide-open world view. But I can't ever forgive you for knowingly lying to the American citizens, and the UN.

Some things can be forgiven, but lying your country into an illegal invasion that resulted in hundreds of thousands of dead innocent people, is something that can never be forgiven.

That's a "slam" against Sarah Palin?
"Governor Palin, to some extent pushed the party more to the right, and I think she had something of a polarising effect..."

That's a slam? Come on. That's just expressing a moderate opinion. You have to be quite right-wing to think that's a slam...or...
you're exaggerating just to get more video views and more upvotes... I think the latter.

I agree with Volumptuous. He sold his credibility away with me on the Iraq war.

^ Republicans do what Republicans do. Can't blame him - blame yourself for believing him. Blame others too for believing him. Or credit yourself for changing opinions and supporting change.
There's still time.
You guys are still over there, "fighting" (or whatever you call it).

I agree with Vol and Geo, but you have to admit that his words still carry a lot of weight.

The Bush administration used him, then abused him, then tossed him out of a moving (stolen) car.

I hate to say it, but I'd love to see some paybacks come around in the next few years.

Gen. Powell is still redeemable, if he wants to be.

^Isn't that what Scott McClellan doing?

If Powell held a press conference stating that Tenet, Cheney, Rummy and Bush were pressuring him to lie to the UN, therefore he is resigning his post, there's a distinct possibility "we" (coalition forces, not just the US) wouldn't have gone into Iraq.

It would've killed him politically, but then again, maybe not. He would've had to switch parties that's for certain, but he could have been regarded as a hero by many.
