“I am not an expert in health care,”

That’s right Colon, now shut your pie hole.

His hypocrisy stains the boundaries of reason as practiced by someone who shares a common set of morals, ethics and humanity.
Is Colin Powell really from our world?

This guy worked for the government his whole life, and has a better health plan in retirement than we will ever see.

And asks, “why does this have to be?”

Hey, Colin, shut up!

A retired four-star general and former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Powell told the audience about a woman named Anne, who as his firewood supplier, faced a healthcare scare of her own. Anne asked Powell to help pay for her healthcare bills, as her insurance didn't cover an MRI she needed as a prerequisite to being treated for a growth in her brain.

Well, Colin, did you pay for the MRI for poor Anne or not?

[What? Another narcissistic semi colored fool, who thinks his opinion matters.]

That’s right. This is Colon Bowel, the poster boy for affirmative action in the military and gov’t. His entire life has been spent skarfing at the public trough.

Americans must resist the fashionable temptation to worship the military. Short term service is most honorable, but long careers tend to produce good Socialists who are addicted to taxpayers’ money. While there are notable exceptions, human nature is what it is. Our founders took a very dim view of standing armies, and they were very wise.
