he (Powell) said. "It doesn't bother me. But it's okay; I'm free."

What does he mean by "I'm free?"

“...He will still support the battleaxe in the election....”

Yeah, he wants his share of the globalist/elitist pie.

Powell made a huge mistake with his Obama vote. He voted for his color. He joined so many others who thought it was high time to vote for anyone who was different from a WASP. No matter what else was part of the package.

I hope he is now getting a good taste of the poison that he has endorsed. And, I hope he will see that Obama was a mistake, and that Hillary truly is a corrupt liar. Now that he is a target, I am sure he is giving a lot of thought to what a Clinton presidency would be like.

How has he assessed Benghazi? How does he like the immigrant problem...the Muslim terror, the Obamacare fail...?

Tell us, Colin. Do you really back this administration's decisions? Do you really believe that Hillary will be good for your country, your military, your grandchildren’s future?

New Email Scandal Excuses Tested

Faced with the difficulty of persuading a skeptical public that the “extraordinarily careless” characterization of her email practices by FBI Director James Comey is significantly different from the legally culpable “gross negligence” standard, the Clinton campaign is field testing a couple of new excuses.

First out of the block was the disclosure that neither Secretary Clinton nor any of her many aides (including Cheryl Mills, Huma Abedin, Jake Sullivan, Dennis Cheng, Anne Marie Slaughter, Phillippe Reines, Caitlin Klevorick, and Kris Bladerston) embroiled in the scandal completed the mandatory ethics training required for federal employees.

Clinton Campaign Manager Robbie Mook pointed out that “any confusion, missteps, or technical violations of the law can’t be held against Secretary Clinton or her staff if they were never given the proper training. You can hardly blame the Secretary’s loyal staffers for following her wishes regarding her off-site email server. Neither can we blame Hillary who previously had very limited exposure to classified communications.”

The real culprit according to Mook was “former Secretary of State Colin Powell. It was this Bush appointee who advised incoming Secretary of State Hillary Clinton to use her own private email for all her important communications. It was Powell who told her that the only way she could ensure control over access to her email was to take it off-site. Otherwise it would be out of her hands. And as we have seen from the fuss made over the emails Hillary did turn over to the State Department, we can only wonder how much worse it could’ve been if she hadn’t had the opportunity to delete 30,000 personal emails.”

I used to think Colin was a smart man. He really should have known better than to buddy up to democrats and Hillary Clinton. I hope he goes down with her. And he can kiss my ass.
