    Colin Powell is an immoral opportunist? Walk me through why you think that is.

    Come on heck you remember it was your buddies calling him the house n***** when he worked for George Bush.

    Sold out to sit at the White Man's table.

    Lied for the Bush administration so they could steal Iraq's oil.

    If he were so morally upset he might have....

    Or not.

    You guys hated him before and then when it didn't matter anymore he changed his tune and now you love him.

    Oh Jesus. Try it again. Walk me through why you think he's a immoral opportunist. This was directed at someone somewhere else.

    It was your party heck.

    So besides the racist garbage that your guys threw what do you think?

    Did Dick Cheney trick him, or force him to shill?

  • No, i'm talking about what you said: "He is an opportunist and has been known to make his morality secondary to his advancement." You said that.

    How do you figure?

    You mean I got my facts wrong from listening to your party?

    How can that be true?

  • Not based particularly at anything in this thread but I find it amazing how some of you don't notice the irony in a lot of things you say when based against other things you've said.

  • Yes, not your finest hour here, Steve.

    So do you think that about the man or not? I don't. I think that's wildly unfair and unsupportable. But hey, give it a try.

  • Fair enough.

    Woody you were a child but Heck's guys called Powell some terrible names when on behalf of the Bush administration he went to the UN with proof that Saddam had weapons.

    He may well have been right which meant the invasion was perfectly acceptable.

    Or he may have given testimony he knew to be incorrect in order to keep and secure his position in that administration.

    That, Woody, would be setting aside one's morals for gain.

    I realisze you were too young to remember and so this is just a tribute to Heck.

  • Who are "my guys" who called Colin Powell terrible names, someone on the internet? Who are you talking about? I didn't call him horrible names. Talk to me. I'm right over here!

    And of course your ridiculous either/or formulation leaves out the accepted reality that everyone already acknowledges, including Powell himself: that they had a lot of the intelligence wrong. He wasn't up there lying "in order to keep and secure his position in that administration." His case was also full of things that weren't true. Also some that were true.

    Or as Powell said, "I, of course, regret the U.N. speech that I gave, which became the prominent presentation of our case. But we thought it was correct at the time. The President thought it was correct. Congress thought it was correct.”

    Or try this one:

    The former secretary of state, Colin L. Powell, says in a television interview to be broadcast Friday that his 2003 speech to the United Nations, in which he gave a detailed description of Iraqi weapons programs that turned out not to exist, was "painful" for him personally and would be a permanent "blot" on his record.

    "I'm the one who presented it on behalf of the United States to the world," Mr. Powell told Barbara Walters of ABC News, adding that the presentation "will always be a part of my record."

    Asked by Ms. Walters how painful this was for him, Mr. Powell replied: "It was painful. It's painful now." Asked further how he felt upon learning that he had been misled about the accuracy of intelligence on which he relied, Mr. Powell said, "Terrible." He added that it was "devastating" to learn later that some intelligence agents knew the information he had was unreliable but did not speak up.

    ...Seriously, where have you been?

  • Yes, you did, Heck. You and your little fleabag mz the pussy the pussy, and your one super fan guy, Sheply.

    Actually, what's even worse, and I'll bet Steve remembers this, too...

    was when you and your two "buddies" ridiculed Tony Snow in nasty fashion....

    right after he died.

    Not classy at all.

    but, heckbunker always thinks he can just leave the board, and then

    he gets a clean slate when he comes back.

    The evil heckbunkers do live after them.

  • Havent heard Colin Powells endorsement ..... Oprah is nowhere to be found.....

    november does count!

  • So your example is ... Al Sharpton.

    I thought it'd be something like that. Al Sharpton = all Democrats = my guys.

    Solid work, my friend.

  • Heckbunker does have a problem. He's totally, completely all wet in Egypt. @@

  • HE and the rest of the republican base better get Ron Paul on board. Kiss his feet if they need to.

    You really don't know me at all, do you? This stuff just makes me laugh.

  • None the less, it's an example of what they are saying and you claiming didn't happen.

    A good rule of debate is when you get stuck on a topic, don't keep trying to defend a lost point, move on to the next.

    Just trying to help.

    Actually Heck I'm just asking you to answer for some of the crazies in your party.

    The same way as you often ask me to.

    I wouldn't think for a minute that you had been part of that garbage, but it was out there.

    The anti war fervor was pretty damn ugly back then, as you should recall.

    Always felt that Powell got left hanging out to dry, by the Bush administration. Before and after the Iraq war started.
