3. Powell was so close to making The Clinton Body Count.Ha,ha,loser.

And Cheney has knocked him so far down in the BFEE hierarchy that he might end his life as Bush's butler or driving miss Laura.

7. Powell had no neon sign saying "I'm with Bill Clinton". He went to plan B.

Colin will try anything and everything to revive his standing in the world community.

8. The guy got sick at a dinner. I don't see why this is news, y'know?

ie, Read this as a minor rant on infotainment as political reporting. Much ado about nothing. They should relegate this to the E channel and get on with it.

Just my 2 cents.

13. He was brought to the same Hospital as Lay.

Aspen, CO (AHN) - Former Secretary of State Colin Powell was briefly hospitalized when he got ill at a restaurant dining with former President Clinton among others. Aspen police Sgt. Bill Linn said that the four-star general told him that it was a combination of altitude sickness and something he ate.

Linn told Wired magazine, "He is conscious and in very good spirits." Linn said that Powell had asked him to speak to reporters.

Powell was released from the hospital at 1:45 a.m. Linn.

A nursing supervisor at the Aspen Valley Hospital, where Enron CEO, Ken Lay was brought to and pronounced dead on Wednesday, refused to comment on the issue.
