[Vision2020] Powell Resigns as Sec. of State

[Donovan Arnold]

This is the third resignation of a cabinet member since the election 
(Ashcroft, Evans). This was not surprising. I remember an article about 
Powell resigning if Bush gets a second term and Powell denying it. Now we 
see the truth in the article.

I am not happy about Powell's resignation. I think he is the most moderate 
and open minded member of the Bush cabinet. Although I have lost most my 
respect for the guy as he knowingly lied to the UN on behalf of the Bush 
Administration to go to war in Iraq.

It is not uncommon for administrations in their second terms to have a 75% 
or higher turnover in top level cabinet positions. I would look for lots 
more resignations in the near future. I am keeping my fingers crossed for 
the resignations of Rumsfeld, Rice, and Cheney.

Take Care,
