The good news is that we don’t have to guess what Barack Obama would say. Keith Olbermann interviews Barack Obama after the SOTU. One of the best questions was whether the Kennedy endorsement stole the moment from the President and his State of the Union address. I think that the answer is clearly yes. Obama and the Kennedy’s and American University sucked the wind out of the President and his address.
In spite of all that has happened, Colin Powell remains one of my favorite people. Yes, he made some mistakes. Yes, he made it much easier for the Bush Administration to go to war. But, he still seems to try to be honest. None of the folks in the Bush administration has EVER admitted that they have made a mistake. Powell clearly states if we knew then what we know now there is no way that we go to war. Now, compare his answer to Presidential candidate Mitt Romney. There is no comparison. None. One is dancing around the problem (Mitt). The other answer is obvious to everyone watching.
Who’s surprised?
