GENERAL COLIN POWELL

TONIGHT I HEARD SOME COMMENTS MADE BY THE GENERAL ON THE MARK LEVIN
TALK SHOW. MR LEVIN PLAYED SOME SOUND BITES OF GENERAL POWELL THAT I DID
NOT LIKE. FOR 20 YRS THE GENERAL WAS ONE OF THE FEW BLACKS IN HIGH POSITION
IN THE US GOVERNMENT.I'M NOT CERTAIN BUT I THINK MR POWELL WAS THE ONLY BLACK MAN ON THE JOINT CHIEFS OF STAFF. I LOOKED UP TO MR POWELL, RESPECTED HIM AND HIS SERVICE TO THE COUNTRY.
REPUBLICAN PRESIDENT RONALD REGEAN ELEVATED GENERAL POWELL TO THE
POSITION IN HIS 2ND TERM I BELIEVE. MR POWELL CLAIMED TO BE REPUBLICAN AND
HE SERVED UNDER 4 PRESIDENTS. 20 YRS OF FAME AND FORTUNE. IT WAS DURING THE
IRAQ WAR THAT GENERAL POWELL TURNED AGAINST PRESIDENT BUSH AND THE
REPUBLICAN PARTY; AND EMBRACED THE DEMOCRAT PARTY.
SO, THE GENERAL IS ON MSNBC, LEFT WING CENTRAL; CLAIMING THAT CERTAIN
"ELEMENTS" OF THE REPUBLICAN PARTY;
( MEANING THE TEA PARTY AND CONSERVATIVES ) ARE RACIST BECAUSE THEY DON'T
WANT TO GIVE AMNESTY TO ILLEGAL ALIENS. I THINK THAT MR POWELL FORGOT
THAT HIS BOSS PRESIDENT REGEAN SIGNED AN AMNESTY BILL FOR 3 MILLION
ILLEGALS BACK IN THE 80'S... AND HERE WE ARE NOW WITH 12-30 MILLION ILLEGALS TRYINGTO GET OVER.
I WONDER, HOW MANY PIECES OF SILVER DID IT TAKE TO TURN HIM? WAS HE EVER A
REPUBLICAN OR WAS HE JUST PLAYIN THEM?
THE GENERAL SUPPORTED OBAMA HE SAYS, BECAUSE OF HIS IDEAS ON ECONOMIC
POLICY ( HE-HE-HE ) NO, HE SUPPORTED HIM BECAUSE HE WAS BLACK......IT IS A
STUPID REASON TO ELECT A PRESIDENT. I THOUGHT THAT MR POWELL WAS SMARTER
THAN THAT.
BUT MR POWELLS ARGUMENTS ARE SO WEAK, SO TRANSPARENT. IT'S OBVIOUS THAT
HE'S BEING USED AS A FOIL TO EMBARRASS THE CONSERVATIVES. THE BLACK MAN THAT THEY ELEVATED FROM OBSCURITY TURNS AND BITES THE HAND THAT FED HIM.
I THINK THAT HE IS PATHETIC NOW AND HAS NO CREDIBILITY..............
