Maybe this will wake up the “other race” and they’ll get into “block” voting.

Mr Ayer’s group was planning to bomb a military ball?

Mr. Ayer is claimed to help author Obama’s book?

Mr. Ayer is unrepentant and Obama lies about what he knows about him?

Mr. Ayer steps on the flag of The United States of America?

General Powell endorses these associations and misrepresentations when he backs Obama.

Why, it was Martin Luther King who said he longed for the day when “men would not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”

The job of President is much like a football coach or a managing general partner of a major league baseball team. The ability to select people based on their talent and abilities for a job is paramount. In that area, Mr Bush seems to be lacking.

His success as Texas Governor compared to his Presidency is baffling.

No one is surprised.

The only people who care about Powell’s Obama endorsement is the media.

There is no surprise here. If you've seen interviews with Powell be it on 60 minutes or Larry King, you know he's "center-left" and supports abortion, dove international policy and more. Obama is a good fit for Colin's stated views. All that said, he's clearly disloyal to Reagan and the Bushes who did so much to advance his career because they believed he had talent. He's a sniping opportunist who lacks the guts to run for office himself. I'm pleased as punch. I never ever liked him and couldn't believe so many were delusional enough to think he'd be a good president Republican or otherwise.

Powells reasoning is even more of a joke. He thought Obama was better suited to handle the economic caos because he is smoother and calmer...

Powell is an AA case, sorry to say.
