Yeah, both of them have made miscues. So did alot of people who now have concerns about the direction we have gone. Zakariah interviewed his share of neocons over the years, but they were the ones in power.Obi wan liberalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04425739293622553830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1096954374118087231.post-1817077261434022112008-10-20T21:29:00.000+02:002008-10-20T21:29:00.000+02:00Maybe I'm being too cynical, but IMHO Zakaria and ...Maybe I'm being too cynical, but IMHO Zakaria and Powell have a lot to atone for. Endorsing Barack Obama <I>after he's built up a substantial lead</I> should get them nothing in exchange.<BR/><BR/>Come on, who was Fareed Zakaria's first guest on his new CNN show? Douglas Feith, that's who. Zakaria is an unrepentant neocon. <BR/><BR/>General Powell may actually be repentant, but he's expressed it in the most obscure way. On "Meet The Press" he claimed that Bush was trying to avoid going to war with Iraq. Does he expect anybody to believe that now?rmwarnickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10948594032787232166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1096954374118087231.post-32322083000657266182008-10-20T20:01:00.000+02:002008-10-20T20:01:00.000+02:00I was very pleased listening to Powell as he expre...I was very pleased listening to Powell as he expressed his disgust with the demonization of Obama, of Muslims, of taking things out of context or blowing out of proportion. It was refreshing to hear an intelligent common sense response to these things that the McCain campaign is disperately spinning to try to create an environment of fear.Bekkieannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13058996951400003081noreply@blogger.com
