I’m getting sick of these people. “So what?” is the proper response as far as I’m concerned. ‘Stick it in your ear!’
“Dark vein?”
That’s racist!
Second time I saw this posted today.
Earlier I was going to post what you posted - that he should name names, specific examples etc...
But, this seems all a bunch of hype. Dog for and against both sides and all.
Here is what he actually said according to the interview.
“I still see it in the Republican Party and I still see it in other parts of our country. You don’t have to be a Republican to be touched by this dark vein,”
He actually didn’t single out Republicans.
Still, it’s empty blather, from the MSM.
People who use racism as a tool to gain power are always going to claim to see it lurking in the shadows, and under beds.
“There’s secret, hidden racism out there...better give me more of your liberty to squash it! If you don’t agree, you’re racist!”
Thanks to Barry, Uncle Sam has AIDS (Always In Deep Sh*t).
What does Powell know about racism? If there was all this racism, how did he rise so high in the military and in politics?
I used to like him, but he’s turned into another race pimp and socialist. Or maybe he always was and I didn’t notice it.
I think America has finally gotten over their revulsion at being called “racist”.
Obama, Holder, Powell, these people have a reverse racism, which is increasingly obvious.
America is so over racism. End affirmative action. End all forms of reverse racism, and let us live as equals.
Well -Of course- there are, and he’s 100% correct. There are republicans that are an embarrassment. But they are not the animating force of the party.
Furthermore, I choose not to play his game, where repubs need to be utterly pure of all human weaknesses and shortcomings,,,,, while the democrat party is a Bacchanal cesspool of sodomy, baby murder, treason, islamist adoration, and other evils that would literally horrify the average Roman citizen. And as they merrily do so, they despise Jews, Christians, whites, and Texans.
Pure Alinski, we must be perfect, they believe in no rules and so anything they want is allowed for them.
F off Colin.
There must be an Election coming up ,Colin Powell has crawled out from under his rock or maybe Obama is running for a third term
As a long time GOP insider I have to admit there is large segment of us who are intolerant to Powell and his kind — liberal Republicans.
“...he still sees a “dark vein” of intolerance in the Republican Party, echoing comments that he made in 2013.”
I see that statement as typical of an affirmative action beneficiary.
Melanin uber alles
Colon Bowel strikes again.
Colon either overlooks, or is ignorant to, the fact that the abolition of slavery was a central plank in the platform of the early Republican Party.
None so blind . . .
Just like there is a bright vein of intolerance in many Democrats and liberals. Expresses itself daily. Just listen to what they say or write. Those two groups are despicable.
Just another case of Liberal Projection
Blacks are the most racists group in America, including Colon Bowel.
“Colin Powell Still Sees ‘Dark Vein’ of Intolerance “
He’s apparently blinded by the lily white ass of affirmative action.
