1. Still a potentially great man
if he can find a starship and get a few lightyears from his tenure as SOS.

2. Let's hope he spends the day...
... contemplating all the things he did to get ahead which cost others (and the truth) dearly.

3. it also cost him this image of being a great statesman that in his head he
thought he was, or wanted us all to think he was.

4. Responsible for too many "deathdays"
of American soldiers and innocent Iraqis to have a "happy" birthday. I don't know how he sleeps at night. Oh I remember, he said he and the administration takes "lots of Ambien".

6. What a shame
I lost a lot of respect for him when he decided to carry water for Shrub.

8. Nothing but contempt for you, Colin Powell.
You could have derailed that train, but you chose to get on board.

Shame, shame, everlasting shame.
