Another great quote from Collin Powell

[jlmiracle 7]

It's become almost routine for members of the American press to throw dumb or leading questions at members of the Bush administration. Maybe that's one of the reasons why Secretary of State Colin Powell seemed so well prepared for the shifty question recently hurled at him by an Iraqi reporter. According to the New York Post, one of Saddam's newshounds asked Powell, "Isn't it true that only 13 percent of young Americans can locate Iraq on a map?"

"That may be true," Powell countered. "You're probably right. But unfortunately for you, all 13 percent are Marines."

Be kinder than necessary because everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Did you know "gullible" is not in the dictionary?

Are you waiting to see who is the first to come back and say it is or are you just wondering who is gullible enough to take it at face value?
