Just wondering about Powell
He hasn't been much of a loyal team player lately. Maybe he has seen the light and is staying on rather than jumping ship so he can sabotage the administration from within.

1. the only light Powell has seen is the one that leads him to his own
survival after Bush goes down. It is the light of making a killing in consultations, speeches, and perhaps a book, after Bush is uncerimoniously ousted, perhaps by a landslide. Powell recognizes that Bush is toast and is sinking fast.

No way can I muster up much respect for this immoral opportunist.

2. I second that.
He's not the moralist people make him out to be.

4. yup -- third that
he is a loyal republican -- and he is most loyal to his own cause.
but ultimately bush did nothing that powell doesn't basically agree with.
powell is a moral void.

3. I agree.
I wanted to like Powell but he has made that impossible.
