What strange bedfellows ... Clinton's and Bush's Secretary of State ...
Poster Comment: ASPEN, Colorado (AP) -- Former Secretary of State Colin Powell was briefly hospitalized early Friday after he fell ill at a restaurant where he was dining with former President Clinton and others, police said. Aspen police Sgt. Bill Linn said the four-star general told him it appeared to be a combination of altitude sickness and something he ate. "He is conscious and in very good spirits," Linn said shortly before Powell was released from Aspen Valley Hospital at 1:45 a.m. Linn said Powell asked him to speak with reporters. Powell's Alexandria, Virginia-based secretary, Peggy Cifrino, did not immediately return a phone call left at her office. A nursing supervisor at the hospital, where former Enron CEO Kenneth Lay was rushed to and pronounced dead early Wednesday, refused to comment. Powell, 69, was in Colorado for the Aspen Ideas Festival, a conference in its second year that invites some of the world's leading thinkers. The former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff and chief strategist of the 1991 Persian Gulf War against Iraq served as President Bush's secretary of state from 2001 until January 2005, when he was replaced by Condoleezza Rice.

This is really funny !
If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude greater than the animating contest for freedom, go home from us in peace. We seek not your counsel, nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds (smites) you; and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen. Samuel Adams ... and I concur !
I wonder what he ate. Does any story give the name of the restaurant?
An "ill wind" is blowing in Colorado ping.
I wonder if Kenneth Lay ate out in a restaurant while he was in Aspen.
If so, they have quite a menu.
Guess he choked on the baloney.
"I woke up in the CRAZY HOUSE."
Maybe they served him some of Ken Lay's special guacamole. Powell is another one of those guys with too much inside information. Richard W.
The 2 worst restaurant meals I've ever had in my life were at Aspen, CO and Estes Park, CO. Guess Shrub's annointed illegal mezkin kitchen help must've gone outside to s**t and piss and wiped their ass with their hands [normal behavior for them] prior to prepping the food/

Inspired Thinking in an Idyllic Setting Aspen, Colorado (Aspen Meadows Conference Center) For more than 50 years, the Aspen Institute has been the nation’s premier gathering place for leaders from around the globe and across many disciplines to engage in deep and inquisitive discussion of the ideas and issues that both shape our lives and challenge our times. In a groundbreaking extension of its mandate to create opportunities for deep dialogue, the Aspen Institute now seeks to engage a broader audience in a discussion of some of the significant ideas and issues that touch all parts of our society through the arts, science, culture, religion, philosophy, economics, and politics.

R. James Woolsey, Vice president, Booz Allen Hamilton, Inc.; former director, Central Intelligence Agency Booz Allen Hamilton: This is where (RABBI) Dov Zakheim went after he fled the Pentagon as comptroller after he financially raped it to the tune of 2.3 TRILLION DOLLARS ... Zakheim was also the CEO of Systems Planning Corp. ... an international company that develops remote control devices for large aircraft. Wonder why he went to Booz Allen Hamilton after he resigned from the Pentagon after 9-11 ???

I'm guessing some of that low skilled, 3rd world kitchen help forgot to wash their hands. Have I told you eating out has become far less appealing to me lately?
Bingo! My wife is a great cook, and we have two more in our close circle of friends. We decided to start cooking meals as a group every weekend, and have shunned restaurants as a result. You know who is preparing your food; you know the cook isn't going to spit in your food if one makes a comment about the food; the company is great; and you SAVE a fortune; especially on the tip. Eat out? Why risk your health?
Just goes to show...democrats, republicans, the media, big business...they are ALL in bed together, and we know who they are screwing. (Anyone else been walking funny lately?)

I'm so disappointed in Michael York.
