The Republican Party, says former Secretary of State Gen. Colin Powell, suffers from a “dark vein of intolerance.” We salute Powell’s service. He is a heavily decorated vet who served two tours of duty in Vietnam when things were hot and heavy over there.
But General, care to name names? Who are these “intolerant” Republicans? Why engage in accusation by innuendo? By all means, name them, shame them – make them famous.
In the meantime, while Powell composes his list, we compile some questions to some possible left-leaning “dark veins of intolerance”:
What color was Rep. Maxine Waters’, D-Calif., “vein” when she said, “The tea party can go straight to hell”?
What color was Tavis Smiley’s “vein” when he said former President Ronald Reagan “tortured” blacks?
What color was Spike Lee’s “vein” when he said, “I’m convinced AIDS is a government-engineered disease”?
What color was Rep. Charlie Rangel’s, D-N.Y., “vein” when he said, “George W. Bush is our Bull Connor”?
What color was Harry Belafonte’s “vein” when asked whether the number and prominence of blacks in the Bush administration suggested a lack of racism, said, “Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich”?
What color was Danny Glover’s “vein” when he called America “one of the main purveyors of violence in this world”?
What color was Bill Cosby’s “vein” when he said AIDS “was started by human beings to get after certain people they don’t like”?
What color was Will Smith’s “vein” when he said, “AIDS was created as a result of biological-warfare testing”?
What color was Harry Belafonte’s “vein” when he said, “We are living in terrorism as black people in America. And it has been that way since the dawning of slavery”?
What color was then-NAACP chairman Julian Bond’s “vein”

FUCP!
I do believe the Honorable(?) Gen. Powell was gazing into a mirror when he made that statement about “dark veins of racism.”
The general’s race card has taken a bodacious obama on his military service card.
FUGP.
Sorry, Colon. If you supported 0bama for president, you have no grounds to call yourself a Republican. You’re stinkin’ up the tent.
It’s time to go away Gen. Powell. You’ve destroyed any respect we had for you. Racism is now your legacy, and you’ve brought it on all by yourself.
God bless the Sage of south central.
And yet these same racist republicans like, love or at least highly respect: Allen West, Clarence Thomas, Thomas Sowell, Walter Williams, Herman Cain, Larry Elder, Ken Hamblin, , Star Parker, J.C.Watts and a whole bunch of others....
Hell, we even liked you Colon, Condoleeza Rice, Michael Steele and Alan Keyes until you/they showed your/their true colors (and I don’t mean your epidermal melanin content) or otherwise went somewhat insane.
It isn’t your race we hate, Colon; It is your politics.
HA! I didn’t even realize that Larry Elder was the author.
I’ve been sad since every radio station that I can receive clearly dropped his radio show, to which I was a daily listener.
(they have also dropped Mark Levin more recently :-( )
He is a phony traitor, an insidious lying snake who probably screwed up Bush’s second year foreign policy in Iraq.
Whenever I see the Republicans trying to ‘out-negro’ the Dems...I point out Gen Powell.
How did he work out for you?
Powell is Black Moslem proTerrorist like his King.
General Powell seems to forget that many Republicans wanted him to run for President.
Powell said he declined to run for Prez because his wife told him there was so much racism in America that he would surely be assassinated on the campaign trail.
He’s gone full Belafonte now.
Pretty cynical on Powell’s part, considering that republican white people in positions of power assigned and promoted him all the way to CJCS. So, he took full advantage of being black and exploiting white guilt via minority promotion quotas, and now starts flinging race cards against the very people who nurtured his rise to success.
Go away, Colin.
You’ve had your day in the sun.
