Tripe, .@ThreeJacques. Human beings have free will. Powell was seeking to reignite a stalled career, and poisoned the wells of debate for half a century to do it. Powell was a learned man, and had no excuse for this cheap action. — PolitiTweet.org

But then, .@AlisonH73216123, the word 'sulk' is *your* pejorative verb (verbs are always the slickest way if sliding in the blade). I'd say I was complaining, and with good reason. But it's my hardback, and I'll sulk if I want to. Wait till you write a book, then see. — PolitiTweet.org
