Colin Powell----------OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!! - The Firearms Forum

ibtrukn · 04-09-2004, 08:13 AM

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."
