Abraham Lincoln might not have agreed.

#3 Remember when Powell said that Cuba's Castro had "done some good things". Uh, yeah, o.k., Colin.

#5 FrankG is right, Trump has really shown these too up (and Hillary of course) as empty suits.

#8 ...Powell, who served in the George W. Bush administration,...

This morning Woodrow submitted the Mediaite take on this story, which describes the former secretary of state as a Republican. But Mr. Powell endorsed and voted for Barack Obama in both 2008 and 2012, suggesting that his heart has not belonged to the Republicans for a very long time.

#9 The Progs are in serious need of new material.>

Not to mention new people. The progs are nothing more than a cabal of elderly marxist loving losers followed by the snowflake sheeple of academia.

Colin Powell is one of the biggest disappointments I've seen in politics and there have been quite a few.

#11 Colin Powell is one of the biggest disappointments I've seen in politics and there have been quite a few.
Perfumed Prince of the Pentagon first, last and always. To get from Colonel to the lofty Land of the Generals requires strong backing -- mostly it confirms that the person is a political animal. I was underwhelmed when I saw his appointment to SecState and have become progressively disenchanted with him as the years roll by.

#13 IIRC it was he who convinced Bush I to end the war on the 100th hour rather than finishing off Saddam's army. Something the people of Iraq paid for in the next ten years.
