along with a lot of other people. Something tells me Colin isn't gonna get too many Christmas cards this year. Of course, a lot of the people Colin says nasty things about are very nasty people who deserve it...and he also calls the Benghazi hearings a stupid witch hunt. That's good. But I am surprised how few people Mr. Powell says anything nice about. Oh well...Maybe in the next batch of hacked emails. I think the way Powell speaks about his "friend" Hillary,says much more about his (disappointing) character than it does about hers.

whereas he had no desire to be President or even Secretary of State, he did it out of foolish loyalty to overly ambitious people.
