What did people like Powell not see before the election that the rest of us saw, besides race?

[driftdiver]

More proof that Colin Powell is a RINO and needs to resign from the board for the GOP.

[RINO] Colin Powell cautions Obama on big government [whines about debt] [BARF]

Colon, your breath stinks.

[ken21]

maybe comrade colin’s losing some of his investments!

[BobL]

Powell’s being out of character. Typically, I’d expect him to wait until everything has passed, and THEN caution Obama not to spend too much.

No doubt the Dems will shut him up shortly...he obviously jumped the gun.

Affirmative action … nuff said.

"...needs of the people must be met..."

With the exception of national defense, treaties, roads, and currency, I think the people can meet their own needs very well without government.

[DanZanRyu]

Powell said a few months ago, Americans want higher taxes for public services. So what’s his problem?

[SERKIT]

Colin has that telltale brown ring around his neck due to having his head well up his rectum. The man’s judgment is serially flawed.

[pnh102]

We need to quit calling Colin Powell a RINO. Call him a flaming liberal Democrat.

[freekitty]

Don’t tell me this jackass didn’t know who or what Obama is about?

[apillar]

The Powell political doctrine:

Stick finger in Air.

Determine which way wind is blowing.

Go that direction.

[DemforBush]

*snickers*

Anyone, and I mean ANYONE who bothered to listen to one single speech 0bama gave during the Democratic primaries ought to have known what was coming. All the post-nomination invoking of Reagan and/or the “moderate” label was just smokescreen. If Powell really thought otherwise, then he’s a fool.

[FLAMING DEATH]

Powell had a chance to speak up for what was right. He chose to sell out instead.

Now he just needs to shut up. Too little too late.

[Tublecane]

Why did Powell vote for him? Because he took Obama seriously on changing the way Washington works, going over the budget with a fine-toothed comb, throwing lobbyists out, curtailing pork-barrel spending, etc.? How gullible can you be?

I can understand Democrats criticizing the president from within. They were stuck with the guy. But Colin, until recently a reported Republican, ought to have known better.

[tophat9000]

We don't need a weather vain general to know which way the wind's blowing

[WhistlingPastTheGraveyard]

It was only a matter of time before he made a very public rightward shift. He has to stay in the Republican party, that's where he's able to inflict the most damage.

He serves no purpose as a liberal Democrat. He just fades into oblivion if he switches sides.

If I had to choose between Powell, McQueeg or Ridge for the title of Most Loathsome Republican, my head would probably explode.

[BallyBill]

Is it really necessary to put RINO along Powell's name? Powell proved that skin color is more important than political party or belief.

Typing RINO for him is a waste of keystrokes.

[Mr Ramsbotham]

Let us not judge him by the content of his skin, but by the color of his character.
