It's time now for another look at who's talking -- this morning we're hearing from a former secretary of state also making headlines recently.

Colin Powell.

He made news when he was once again critical of the Republican Party.

So what's the reason behind his comments that's what Bill O'Reilly wanted to find out last night on the factor.

Now this is a rude question and I'm sorry to have to ask it.

You ready.

This is the scuttlebutt.

In Washington.

It's on the Republican side effects.

They said.

There's this edited by more than one.

That -- angry.

With the Republicans.

Be cost.

The major look bad and the weapons of mass destruction deals during the Iraq War.

I don't believe that I have to -- on record -- I don't believe that that's -- motivating you I think here.

Genuinely sincere guy and American who sees it that the way you see it I disagree in some areas I agree and others.

But this is -- round.

That Cheney in these guys didn't like them he had no use for Cheney had no use for this war he did what they asked you to do.

It turned out there were no weapons of mass instructions and held that.

You want to comment on.

As a bunch of nonsense I presented the information that we all had from the intelligence community.

-- when I went to the UN.

It was with the assurance of the CIA that the information I had to course correct.

Mr.

Cheney is that same -- -- the president did all of our commanders thought it was correct.

And we all we're saying so the congress voted dirt on the basis of that it's amazing and I did two more months earlier right.

Before I spoke and so I made a choice based on the information I had and I don't have to sit and answer idiotic questions like that.

Powell went on to say they voted for President Obama twice because he -- recently been frustrated with the Republican Party.

And also because he thought president Obama's economic policies were fast.

For the state of our country.
