No matter how much Powell reasons against the Bush II war, it still rings false since he was a principal actor in justifying the invasion. Would Bush have dared invade Iraq if there were WMD? People trusted Powell at one time - me too. However, it’s better late than never admitting his “conduct unbecoming an officer.”

This and Powell’s interchange with Arianna Huffington reported in a posting by her to huffingtonpost.com should be in the headlines of all the MSM Talking Head shows Sunday morning.

“In between panels, I ran into Colin Powell and asked him if we are ever going to get out of Iraq. `We are,” he told me, “but we’re not going to leave behind anything we like because we are in the middle of a civil war.` Powell and Jack Murtha both talking about Civil War in Iraq—shouldn’t that be headline news?”
