The Dishonorable Colin Powell

The American Spectator ^ | 25 Oct 2012 | Quinn Hillyer

[Sir Napsalot]

Dishonorable means you say one thing but actually doing the opposite.

Let's just say Powell is a man without principle nor integrity.

[dragonblustar]

Putin, Chavez and the Muslim Brotherhood have also support Obama’s re-election.

[Portcall24]

He’s a disgrace to the uniform he once wore as well as the memory of those that followed him because they thought he was a man of principles and ethics.

[MarineBrat]

He obviously doesn’t believe that all men are CREATED equal, or else he wouldn’t vote based on skin color.

[scooby321]

I am sure Mr. Powell was taught to leave his men behind in a Mission

[mia]

So much for all his promises to “uphold our Constitution.” Liberalism is more important than the present and future of our country. Obviously Powell approves the policies that are crippling our nation.

“Dishonorable means you say one thing but actually doing the opposite.”

I think pretending to be a Republican for decades in order to get ahead while being a secret Democrat meets that definition. I also think he is black first and an American second.

[ryan71]

Because his skin is dark.

[arthurus]

Colin Powell made flag rank as a bureaucrat. He has the attitudes of a bureaucrat.

[mass55th]

For someone who claimed years ago, that he was a fiscal conservative, he’s sold his soul to the devil twice now. Guess he was just shuckin’ and jivin’ back then.

[Psalm 144]

Precisely. He is a Parlor Marshal.

[Maryhere]

I agree, Powell is just voting for Obama because of his color. In other words, Powell would rather vote for a black man than a competent one.

[CatOwner]

Given what Obama has done to the military, you would think that at a minimum Powell would just keep his mouth shut.

[Attention Surplus Disorder]

There’s part of me that dislikes Powell even more than I dislike Pelosi, Reid, 0bama, and Schumer. At least those people have no pretense about their leftist intentions for the country. Powell is a stealth figure. He’s not useful enough, nor smart enough to be a useful idiot, and he isn’t even trustworthy. Truly a pathetic figure.

[rjones42]

With blacks its all about race (90%). This is not going to change for years until such time as their culture changes.

[apillar]

What's amazing to be is how the left just loves Powell now that he supports their “messiah”. It wasn't very long ago that they were calling him a George W. Bush “house n*gger” and demanding he be brought up on treason charges for his UN Speech claiming Iraq had WMD’s. But as soon as he endorsed Obama in 2008, all was forgiven and he was again the elder statesman.

[Twinkie]

Color, color, color - first, last and always. There is no way that anyone with a fig’s worth of intellectual integrity could doggedly continue to support Obama and his ongoing affirmative action Presidency. - Nothing Powell says at this point is going to cut any ice with me.

[Eric in the Ozarks]

Colin who ?

[MrB]

“Black Code” : never side with a non-black against a black, no matter what the issue.

Besides, Colin’s wife wants to be in the black social circles in DC.
