I think he represents the Republicans perfectly at this point.

Republican does not equal conservative. For reference see John McCain

Mr. Powell represents Republicans as Hitler did Jews.

"I think I am still a Republican."

And Madonna still thinks she's a young, beautiful, headlining singer. But that ain't so either.

“Colin Powell Says “I think I am Still a Republican”

Well, General, until you:

1. Spit out the Kool-Aid,
2. Apologize for the massive brain fart you experienced when you endorsed 0bama, and
3. Actually adopt conservative values,

you’re a turncoat and a liberal democrat. Have you collected your 30 pieces of silver, yet?

“We’ve got to learn a lesson from this election.”

This is rich. Powell turned on the Republican party to take them to school? Nah, he turned on the Republicans to support a black candidate and he doesn’t have the balls to say so.

A duck can think he’s an eagle, too.

That doesn’t mean he is.

Powell chose melanin over values. The GOP does not need that kind of immaturity. Go away, Powell.

“I THINK I AM STILL A REPUBLICAN” (????????) If he is a republican, then break down and destroy the Republican party and build it again from scratch, because it means nothing anymore. It is a party of gutless cowards. We need another Reagan to emerge from the ashes if the Republican party is to have a furure.

Colin Powell “I think I am still a Republican”

............................................

So General Powell, let me explain something. The fact is Republicans did not listen to me. They listened to you. They have not been listening to me for years. The Republican Party nominated your ideal candidate. They nominated your guy, a moderate, who’s willing to buy into an endless array of liberal causes, from global warming — ...As long as you are a Republican but you buy into an endless array of liberal causes, global warming to amnesty for illegals, and somebody who has the same fetish for compromising principles that you do, then they are going to love you. Then you turn around and you stab this person in the back by endorsing the most liberal Democrat candidate ever nominated days before the election, General Powell?

Rush Limbaugh

Colin Powell reached his Peters Principle limit as a Captain in Vietnam. It was all downhill brown nosing from there on.
