Dandelion Salad points to this video of former Secretary of State Colin Powell speaking about the war as a “predictable” conflict that could have been avoided. I’m less inclined to believe that the actual substance of Powell’s arguments is all that different from McCain’s statements – though clearly only one of them is trying to win an election.
