Transitions - Colin Powell
 
Secretary of State Colin Powell is resigning to return to private life. He’ll be missed.

Hope he takes his son with him. :rolleyes:

osuche 11-15-2004 04:01 PM

Damn straight he will be missed. We woulda gone to hell in a handbasket without his tireless work behind the scenes. I'm a bit worried about who might fill his shoes......Condi????? PLEASE. :p

He is a great man and I hope he goes on to do more great things.

osuche,

No way! That would be a uncomfortable development indeed.

Galatea 11-15-2004 06:14 PM

Actually, I've heard that is IS going to be Condi.


edit: I lied....she's going to be secretary of defence is what I heard.

Galatea,

Well, crazier things have happened before, but I would be less surprised to see her heading up State than DOD.

All we have to do is wait to find out...

Galatea 11-15-2004 06:31 PM

I heard it on talk radio a few days back. Said something about her taking over either the defense or maybe it was homeland security.....but its definately one of the two

Scarecrow 11-15-2004 07:55 PM

Condi will be the new Sec. of State, just heard it on MSNBC

Galatea 11-15-2004 07:57 PM

ok now we just have to wait on someone to assasinate bush and cheney to have that heart attack and we have our first african american and/or female president and it won't be Hillary Clinton!

jseal 11-15-2004 08:08 PM

...but we'll still have a Bush in the White House!

Galatea 11-15-2004 08:10 PM

I said it in another thread.....I would think bush in politics would always be a good thing at pixies....

jseal 11-15-2004 08:17 PM

Now that you mention it...how does that old saying go?


"A new bush sweeps clean."


...or something like that.

Galatea 11-15-2004 08:21 PM

um....sorry but I think that may be broom...."A new broom sweeps cleanest"

jseal 11-15-2004 08:24 PM

Galatea,

I meant well...

Galatea 11-15-2004 08:26 PM

I had a principal in high school whose name was Broom....that didn't work out well so maybe that saying isn't all correct. The year after I graduated he got fired for sleeping with one of the Sophomores...
