I think he was honest but wrong sometimes.
I didn’t say Secretary Powell wasn’t a decent person. I said he should have known better. You said it yourself - he was a sucker.

I expect General Powell' s biggest failing is the same as President Carter.
He is a decent human being who expected those around him to be decent human beings as well.
