Well , maybe YOU liked him, but remember Jessee Jackson calling him basiclly an Uncle Tom along with Harry Belefonte? Or How about the DNC calling Powell UN speech the lowpoint of his career?
Lol - when something IS a lowpoint, that is what you call it! Poor man musta felt like the organ grinder's monkey after presenting that passel of already discredited bumpf.
Damn - a more moderate voice gone from that administration. I hope the loss of voices like that (however disregarded by the inner circle) does not mean a total loss of integrity, and anchor to some reality.
I understand the difficulties of being in an administration, and the realities of politics, and the need to stick publicly to cabinet and presidential decisions. But it musta been very hard.
Does anyone think he may be distancing himself - as well as plain tired of it - and might go for president himself next time, or a bit later?
