I'm tired of Powell. What has he contributed the last 10 years? Just worried about his "legacy" in the Washington press circles.

Amen to that! As I recall it was him getting concerned about all the killing along the highway out of Kuwait that put the stop to destroying Iraq's military after the first Desert Storm.

As far as I'm concerned his stint at Sec. of State did nothing good for our country.

He's an international "statesman". Sees a bigger picture than the rest of us. Now prefers "diplomacy" to conflict. If he disagreed with Murtha's statements, then why didn't he diplomatically, for the record, say so? He's just more hot air. Murtha wouldn't even vote for his own suggestion. Why isn't Powell more worried about the feelings of the troops in Iraq than a lose lipped former marine who should have thought before he spoke?

You speak the truth.

When Murtha speaks surrender, he needs to be called on it.

I don't remember the Dems or Powell crying about the attacks on Dole when he was running for Pres. No one said his words were all to be accepted because of his heroic service did they?

I'm so sick of these RINO's. I wish they would just go to the Dems side of the isle so we can target and beat them as well.
