Former Secretary of State Colin Powell’s leaked emails are proving to be a real embarrassment for the retired four-star general, but none top the remark he made in one about former President Bill Clinton’s sexual behavior.
In a 2014 email to major Democratic donor Jeffrey Leeds, the former Bush administration official wrote that even though he considers Hillary Clinton a friend, he would rather not have to vote for her.
Among the reasons he gave was a colorful suggestion that husband Bill was STILL “d*cking bimbos” — meaning Bubba is still on the prowl.
“I would rather not have to vote for her, although she is a friend I respect,” Powell wrote. “A 70-year-old person with a long track record, unbridled ambition, greedy, not transformational, with a husband still d*cking bimbos at home (according to the NYP).”
CNS News managing editor Will Rahn shared the email on Twitter:

Powell’s personal email account was apparently hacked and some of the content was published online by DCLeaks. The candor on display in some of these emails is now playing havoc with Powell’s carefully crafted reputation in political circles.
As you can image, social media had lots of fun with the slam against Bill Clinton… here’s a sampling of responses from Twitter:
It’s real, and it’s spectacular. https://t.co/4cIilI2qK4
