Colin Powell fesses up, calls U.N. speech on Iraqi WMDs a “blot ... on his record.”
Bush’s international water-carrier flunky admits he was wrong, and how appropriately, he does it to Barbara Walters.
“I’m the one who presented it to the world, and (it) will always be a part of my record. It was painful. It is painful now,” Powell said in an interview with Barbara Walters on ABC-News.
However, showing he did learn the Bush buck-passing game well, he immediately shifts blame to then-CIA Director George Tenet.
A couple of questions, Colin:
1. Did you know this was a “blot” before or after the 2004 election?
2. As a sworn officer of the U.S. Army before you ever became a political appointee, do you consider your loyalty to first be to the President (and other higher-ups) or to America as constituted in the American people? (Answer honestly, and remember that people like me know your connection to My Lai.)
