Negative ads?

Well now, I had understood that McCain did not want to hit Obama on Rev wright because of Powel, well the gloves should really come off.

Gen. Powell has earned the right to his opinion. He’s spent most of his adult life in service to his country. His decision to support a candidate with whom we disagree does not change the fact that Gen. Powell served his country with honor and distinction.

Absolutely right! Without Powell the war would have been a lot harder to sell.

An Old liberal classmate of mind paid for a full page ad in the New York Times after Powell's UN speech.

Jim Walter Jr.

With the Military expertize Powell had, I guess Jim Walter prove today he had Powell pegged right.

I really don't know what Powell thinks he can achieve by this.

A cabinet post.

If McCain attack Rev Wright, Powell would have called him a racis, instead he attacks Sarah Palin.

If Obama get elected, the USA will suffer greatly.

Say a President Obama leads our nation to destruction as many fear. At that point can we speak ill of Powell?

We knew Powell was a slithering snake when he and Armitage hung Scooter Libby out to dry in the Valerie Plame lie. Powell is a gutless wonder and always has been. I say good ridance.

A man who fought Communists in Vietnam is now supporting and endorsing a Communist. Amazing.

It is clear now that Colin Powell was NEVER honest with the American people or the Bush Administration as to who he really is.

Colin Powell is a Socialist/Marxist, and has just evaporated any admiration or respect I could have mustered for him.

A huge mistake appointing Powell to head our military. Even greater one as Sec. of State.

It makes him look like an idiot - He was going to vote for McCain, but he ran too many negative ads. Yeah we believe that one.
LoL.

I never viewed Powell as a conservative, even closely. I honor his war service, but since retirement, has been nothing but an opportunist. This is nothing but political posturing for 2012 or 2016, allowing his options to be open in both parties.

Another racist for Obama.

Way to go POS Powell.

If blacks are willing to sell our country out to socialism for skin color then the hell with all of them.

Some weaklings are unable to take the media character assassination that comes with being a Republican or Republican leaning. They are incapable of dealing with the barrage of attacks and they just want to be part of the ‘crowd’ and they cave. Powell has shown his true self in this. We all know he was always a more liberal type, but I also think Obama’s race is a large part of this because there really is no there there for such an endorsement. This is an indictment on Powell’s character and, as I’ve said, America’s blood will be on Powell’s hands if this antichrist gets the presidency because he is a danger not only domestically but it will be fatal internationally to this country. Powell is dead to me as far as I’m concerned and this will not be forgotten if this comes to fruition.

Is this ANOTHER VANITY?

Why do people think they have something so important that they deserve a thread. Yea Powell endorsed Obama...

Now lets let him have it.

I am getting sick of small minded Freepers. I never question the problems or the direction of America is heading after spending 20 minutes reading the "new" F.R.. So many fools. Small minded, boxed in thinkers.

Enjoy your Marxist future. Both Parties are now serving in the dining room downstairs.

It truly is 1984. There is no place to hide; no place to fight.
