Interesting news. Even the mighty Powell can fall ill from bad food! And those poor Iraqis who are forced to live on sub-standard living conditions where you do not even know when the next bomb may take you away? They still face the bane of Powell’s indiscretions!
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.
