Satirical dialogue referencing Colin Powell and Dick Cheney with no concrete allegations

In his new book, Bob Woodward writes about Colin Powell’ s status as an adviser to you. Referring to his previous book, Plan of Attack, the New York Times then reported that “Secretary of State Colin Powell disputed Woodward’ s account....He said that he had an excellent relationship with Vice President Dick Cheney, and that he did not recall referring to officials at the Pentagon loyal to Cheney as the ‘Gestapo office.’ " Who among us would be unable to recall uttering such an epithet? Powell later apologized for it. He has also changed his mind about gays in the military. In my capacity as a stand-up satirist, | used to conduct an imaginary dialogue with Powell. “General Powell, you’ re the first African-American to be head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and you come from the tradition of a military family. So you know that blacks were once segregated in the Army because the other soldiers might feel uncomfortable if blacks slept in the same barracks. And now that’ s what they say about gays, that other soldiers might feel uncomfortable about gays sleeping in the same barracks.” “Well, you have to understand, we never fto/d anybody we were black.” HOUSE_OVERSIGHT_015326
