Bush administration continues its spiral downward: Colin Powell asks Condoleeza Rice the same question that John Kerry asked…

Libby Quaid, Associated Press Writer, reports, “Just back from Baghdad and eager to discuss promising developments, Secretary of State, Condoleeza Rice found herself knocked off message Sunday, forced to defend prewar planning and troop levels against an unlikely critic, Colin Powel, her predecessor at the State Department.” Powell asked Rice “whether the U.S. had a large enough force to oust Saddam Hussein and then secure the peace.”

It wasn’t long ago that John Kerry asked the same question: "The president rushed our nation to war without a plan to win the peace."
