Here We Go Again. Trot out the Darkies to Explain away the torture.
Everytime this administration screws brown people, out comes Colin Powell to provide cover. The torture scandal is so bad, that even Condi Rice is being called out.

Why is she doing the appologizing? She don't run the military. The guy who should do the appologizing, refused to do so when specifically questioned about it at his "press conference." (Dumsfeld)

I guess it's easy for her to appologize for something not her fault, but refuse to do so when it is her fault. (Like totally missing 9-11)

Even Colin doesn't run the military, but there he is providing cover.

You'd think these guys would be embarassed at how they are used. Now we see why Bush keeps Powell even when the rest of them, Cheney, Rumsfeld, etc., always dis the guy. He's the fuckup insurance policy for Bush. And Rice as always, is jusy window dressing.

2. Noticed that too
This is the most cynical group of a**holes that ever lived.

I don't expect Condi to rebel, but I always thought Powell had enough self-respect to keep himself from being used/abused by Bushco.

Guess I was wrong.

3. I thought CONdi was the "Unsticker."
Didn't Chimpy turn Iraq over to her last year?

4. Now that you mention it, I vaguely remember this too. They change
shit so much, you can't keep up. Maybe she IS responsible then.
