Gen. Colin Powell dead at 84.

The Colin Powell I remember is the Secretary of State Colin Powell who under GHWB talked him OUT OF PURSUING the beat-back of Iraq into Baghdad and ending that regime after it was driven out of Kuwait and suffered a terrific loss on the Highway of Death out of Kuwait by a couple of F-15E Eagles. Reports were that Powell "didn't think the optics of going further after that would look good to the UN." Had Baghdad been taken back then under a real UN coalition, who can say that the 4,287 Iraq War US deaths that occurred much later under GWB and Obama would have been necessary at all.

Secondly, the next thing I remember about Colin Powell, normal retired 'Republican,' Spoke at the Democrat National Convention ENDORSING Joe Biden for President 2020.

That's the Colin Powell I remember...
