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% 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% are Marines."

he is truly a gifted communicator! he says things that a lot of other folks are thinking.

He is a great American! Thank God he is Secretary of State.
