Circa 2003

Circa 2003

Remember when...

Powell demonstrated in 2003 that his loyalty for Bush superseded his duty to "bear true faith and allegiance" to the US Constitution as Secretary of State.

And now, Robert Scheer reports that

"former Secretary of State Colin Powell told me that he and his department's top experts never believed that Iraq posed an imminent nuclear threat, but that the president followed the misleading advice of Vice President Dick Cheney and the CIA in making the claim."

Powell had his opportunity to speak out against the invasion of Iraq, but he chose to sing and dance to the tune of the Bush administration.
