For me anyway,he redeemed that respect when he crossed party lines and endorsed the man who,in his opinion,was better suited for the Oval Office.

This wasn't the first time Colin Powell sold his soul, he was a part of the My Lai "whitewash" as it was referred to by the Judge Advocate Generals office. People have defended his actions because he was "young" he was a fucking Major in the US Army, the earliest you can make Major (pay grade O-4) is TEN years in service. If he was 22 when he was commissioned from college that would have made him minimum 32 years old, when he participated in the "whitewash". Colin Powell hopefully will rot in some foul "psycho-spiritual" place for all eternity, because of his actions. Judgmentally, Some Knucklehead in NJ

mnottertail -> RE: Impeachment? (3/24/2011 1:54:37 PM)
He was 31, not directly involved in Mai Lai, but as an investigator after the fact, turned in a typical army investigative report which is by definition 'whitewash'. I dunno if I find that so uniquely reprehensible. But that is just me.

Moonhead -> RE: Impeachment? (3/24/2011 1:58:21 PM)
I'm with ron on that one, pogo: the whole point of army investigations is to exonerate the wrong doers under investigation unless there's a political reason to tell the truth, after all. That's how these things work, sadly.

mnottertail -> RE: Impeachment? (3/24/2011 2:06:06 PM)
The actual aftermath of it, was the army didnt want him busted anywhoo in the first place, but he was fuckin caught....... they did alot of shadow pictures with their hands for the gullible viewing public (who I assume now watch Faux Nuze) and he did house arrest for a couple years and they sort of let him off the base leash after that, he was free to move about the cabin, in any cartesian coordinate direction his little heart desired.

I think the civilian term for that is "covering your arses"...

In the government we call it bad intel on WMD. Don't know what you blokes do, sell off a bleedin' forest, or summitch.

quote: ORIGINAL: Moonhead I think the civilian term for that is "covering your arses"... Whatever one calls it..it does seem to be a prevalent and pervasive instinct within institutions.The knee jerk reaction to protect those within the structure from those forces that might threaten from without. The Blue Wall of any Police force is as good an example as any.

Moonhead -> RE: Impeachment? (3/24/2011 2:35:54 PM)
Oh, don't even get me started on the rozzers doing that: we've had some pretty rotten cases of that one over the last few years here...

slvemike4u -> RE: Impeachment? (3/24/2011 3:28:12 PM)
The level of resistance to outside pressures is often directly proportionate to the perceived insulation from the greater community at large. Just sayin....

Do you know what it is now? This is the second time Ive tried to explain it to you. quote: ORIGINAL: rulemylife I'm never sure what most of those smiley things mean.
