Can we thank Colin Powell for making the truth irrelevant with his long career of lies?

Lies like-
"It's not a baby formula factory-. It's a chemical weapons plant!"
And Powell's classic speech before the UN-

WMDs! Take my word for it!

Still not sure if he was in on the con or just a useful idiot for Rumsfeld.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow he lied about a massacre in Vietnam, a formula factory in Iraq that the US bombed, an aspirin factory in Sudan that Powell claimed looked like a weapon stash, the Gulf War in 1991, the Iraq invasion-. It was an illustrious and long career of blatant lies

@Stopmakingsense Just saying, the best way to sell a con is to find a trusting idiot to be the face of it. I am just not sure which side of that equation he was on.

@PicturesOfABetterTomorrow then we'll never know. It's called gaslighting.
