WASHINGTON, May 23 (UPI) -- Former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell is set to answer his Republican Party critics in a television appearance, associates say.
Citing unnamed sources, The Washington Post reported Saturday that Powell has told associates he will use Sunday's appearance on CBS Television's "Face the Nation" program to respond to such GOP detractors as former Vice President Dick Cheney and talk show host Rush Limbaugh, who have ridiculed Powell's calls for the party to move to the middle of the political spectrum.
