Thank you.  Thank you, thank you, thank you.

As a White Male(tm), I'd like to apologize on behalf of those of us
who tend to whine when their "rights" are exposed as mere privileges.
Not of all us behave like spoiled children though.

Both amply maintain the trait required to make it in the Dubya White
House: blind obedience to authority.  Just ask Mr. Powell's father.

And I'm not impressed with Powell Jr.  If anything, he treats his post
like a sinecure..
