Yeah, well, too little to late from Powell. Had such great hopes for him. Where has he been since he left the Administration? He should have spoken up sooner. Some of this is on his hands, too, since he didn't.
Saw him on the Daily Show several months ago defending the same actions he's claiming to be pained about now. Heard rumors he might be tapped to head FEMA.
