NOT terribly worried about Powell endorsing Obama. Powell endorsing anybody is similar to WJC campaigning on behalf of someone. Guaranteed they lose.
Powell agrees with Obama about abortion.
SHAME ON COLIN POWELL!
God Bless The Other Jesse!
Well, he needs to be repudiated, time everyone needs to be held accountable! I'm sick of it.
I love the taste of irony in the morning.
Four years ago, I was flamed off FR as a racist and bigot for daring to declare Colon Bowell an affirmative-action appointee who lost his nerve on the Highway of Death.
Four years later, I am proven right.
DOUBLE SHAME ON HIM!
By “other Jesse” I hope you are referring to the RIGHT Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson. LOL
Old Sarge...you were not flamed by me I’m sure! Glad you are back........
“Powell agrees with Obama about abortion.”
They deserve each other then; together they can make the world safe for women who want to kill their own children.
That says a lot about both men.
Some in the military thought he was a “tool”, independents liked his seeming objective analysis. I suspect he's somewhere in between. He's just a guy. He's complicated.
No one in the campaign is having fits over him, and it's McCain's campaign. I doubt Gov. Powell will be on the short list for Republicans in the future. He's a Democrat now whether he considers himself one or not. He's always been pro-choice (as is Condi Rice). Can't be a true conservative and hope to get far with that “philosophy”.
I had lunch with a lady who is a lifelong moderate Democrat. She is for McCain but might have voted Hillary. She said the GOP should have nothing to do with Powell after this and that it was a serious betrayal of the GOP. I was pretty shocked she said it and I obviously agree.
She is listening to Glen Beck and Rush all the time now. I think we may get more moderate Dems voting Repub this year.
Oh and she is frightened by Biden’s comments and she thinks he is nuts.
LOL
Make that "Colon Bowel" and you've got it right!
I meant to say, “Gen. Powell,” not “Gov. Powell”
interesting election....we now have dems voting for McCain....four years of listening to Rush and Beck and it will be lots easier for them to vote pubbie a second time and a third....great news for conservativism.
I wouldn’t have flamed ya, Sarge. Though I would question whether or not Powell ever even had “nerve”.
Powell has always been a weak sister, which makes him a poor soldier, as well as a crummy diplomat.
