Colin Powell bares it all?
Saw a promotional tape on ABC where Baba Wawa will interview Colin Powell. I don't have the stomach to listen to a single word by her but, no doubt, the important exerpts will be broadcasted again and again.

(On the other hand, can't wait to hear CNN's Miles O'Brien on the Daily Show tonight)

1. I don't have the stomach to listen to a single word by HIM
He walked in lockstep despite all that he knows. I used to really like Colin Powell, but that's when I thought he had courage.

11. Here's the link

# This Friday, Sept. 9, at 10 p.m. ET

# EXCLUSIVE: Barbara Walters talks with former Secretary of State Colin Powell about being the president's point man, making the case for invading Iraq. Now, out of office, he talks freely about being wrong, being loyal -- and his next move.

4. Oh please
Colin Powell, who sold his soul years ago for less than a bowl of pottage, isn't about to "bare all" on ABC or anywhere he can still invoke his Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination.

6. Waste of time on a waste of a human being.
Powell was in a position to stop, or at least cause a pause, in the looming Iraq debacle. Instead he did his masters bidding and lied through his teeth. He has no integrity or honor.
