11. Bush chased the inspectors out, Gen. Powell. Some of us...

have not forgotten!!

[K-W]

14. Because its a breaking scandal.

And he wanted to diffuse it.

[Hissyspit]

18. He tried to undermine its importance.

Very misleading. He's still watching out for his future reputation. Not doing it very well.

[FreedomAngel82]

38. He has to frame the debate first

So he can spin, spin, spin.

[Singular73]

42. Nah, you guys are off on this...

Just him mentioning it gives it legs.

[Hissyspit]

7. He's spewing bullshit and rationalization.

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

9. Powell is a frigging liar. Stewart asking about skewed intelligence!!!!!

[Rick Myers]

15. Clinton???

What is wrong with this man?

[FreedomAngel82]

39. My guess

he's in love with him and jealous of his good looks and charm. :shrug:

[IChing]

16. good statement by John

the disconnect, on wmds and make democracy in Iraq.

[chalky]

17. BULL SHIT! BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT!

OH. MY. GOD!
My head is exploding...Congress had the same intelligence that Bush had, my ass.

[samdogmom]

19. What A Waste!!!

Jon is trying but give him a break. What can you do with these "Lying liars"? Don't give Colin anymore passes. He's done!

[Rick Myers]

21. DONE!!!

He is Dubya's Lawn Jockey!!! I had GREAT respect for this man, but that is ALL GONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :grr:

[IChing]

20. spin, spin, spin

lies, and freedom fries

[Stand and Fight]

22. Glossed over the DSM.

Now glossing over the WMD NON-issue. Stewart is confronting him on the fact that many other world governments and people in the intelligence community felt the intelligence was being skewed.

Pointing out the fallacy that the objection for going into Iraq has changed several times. Powell saying President Clinton's bombing Iraq in 1998 was based on the same kind of intelligence, but "intelligence is never perfect" and you do the best you can with what you have.

Paraphrase -- "What I presented to the United Nations was what I believed to be true at that time." Colin Powell saying his presentation was largely based on WMD and that he ended his presentation on the need for freedom in Iraq.

"What we have to do is defeat this insurgency."

"John, there was a lot of open debate. Congress debated it..." Stewart cuts in with wit, "I don't know how much debating went on, but I know they debated freedom fries a lot."

Cut to commercial...

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

27. And Jon didn't not continue to challenge him on it. He's as worthless

as he thinks the people on Crossfire are. Sorry, but here he has a prime chance to flush out these liars, and he's laying down, belly up.

[Stand and Fight]

29. I must sadly concur. Back on now... n/t

[Hissyspit]

28. Stewart: "They were debating about Freedom Fries..."

Good comeback.

[99Pancakes]

23. ****

[Hissyspit]

24. Question for Gen. Powell:

What's it like to give Satan head?

[Tesla]

30. I love this!!

Hahahaha
I thought that while I was watching!!!

[Hissyspit]

32. Well, I'm ripping it off from Bill Hicks.

He's who makes me think of it. Brilliant guy.

[Idioteque]

25. I hope Jon will bring up Bolton.

Force Powell to take a stand on John Bolton. We know he's been calling Chafee and Hagel asking them to vote no. A public statement by Colin Powell could do wonders.

[kentuck]

26. Yeah, they gave him "intelligence" from some college student paper...

s I recall.. He has no embarrassment.

[noamnety]

31. hahaha

Clearly, Powell fits better on a comedy show than a news show. Fake news is a good spot for him

[OmmmSweetOmmm]

34. hehehehehehehehehe! Excellent point! n/t

[chalky]

33. No, Jon. Do NOT invite that asshole back. n/t

[Stand and Fight]

35. Now Jon Stewart is joking with the bastard....

About having dinner with Bush last week (Powell did) and rather or not he can relax with Bush. Does Kim Jong il --sp?- fit in his pocket? "Yeah, so long as he's not waring his high heels."

:eyes:


Jon, you've failed us man.

[Singular73]

37. Heh, what do you expect?

That Jon grills the guy on a comedy show?

He went as far as it was apropo to go.

[chalky]

36. The only saving grace for this would be if the moment of Zen

was Powell's little YMCA shimmy.

eta: But of course it's not.

[orleans]

40. i rarely tune in the daily show anymore

couple months back i got the feeling jon was siding with the enemy too often--or he wasn't as cutting edge as he had been

and i watched last night with newt???

yeah, jon--plug his f*cking book for him why don't you??

[misanthrope]

46. "Follow the money"...

...who signs Stewart's paychecks?

[Julius Civitatus]

41. He will play the "good soldier," no matter how many times the bushies kick

him in the teeth.

It's truly surreal how servile Colin can be. Even in light of the disdain with which the Bush administration treated him, he still comes to their rescue when they ask him.

So here you have Colin Powell doing damage control on Jon Stewart's show, lying his ass off, telling us how bad Saddam was, once again. And to make matters worse, he had the disgraceful taste to blame the bad intelligence on Clinton.

Very sad. And very disgusting.

:puke:

[Singular73]

43. Other alternative?

Implicating himself in High Crimes.

Yeah, big suprise.

[Skittles]

44. I don't get it, Julius

what could POSSIBLY be his motive NOW ?????

[Singular73]

45. Easy.

Not to implicate himself.

What else?

He was part of it all. HE presented the "evidence" *coughyellowcakecough* to the UN.

He is as guilty as the rest and he knows it.
