Here is video of former Secretary of State Colin Powell saying - somewhat grudgingly - that he is "concerned" about all the spending and programs being pushed by President Obama. Powell made the statement after pushed by CNN's John King, who played a video of Powell speaking at the 1996 GOP Convention where he explained why he became a Republican. Powell said then he wanted a smaller government and lower taxes with less bureaucracy. King then asked Powell how he felt about Obama's policies in light of that speech. . . . . . (Watch Video)

This coming from the same person who recently claimed Americans want bigger government and more taxes.
BO must not be paying any attention to Powell. He was used and now he knows it.
Actually, Powell’s concerned about everything, but he doesn’t have the cubes or the integrity to come out and admit his mistake in endorsing this commie clown.
Does anyone care what Colin Bowell thinks?
Is he having buyer’s remorse?
I “wonder” if he is saddened by Sarah’s resignation, but I do not “care” a fig about him or anything he thinks.
oh?
Colin helped put Hussien into office. Flippity floppity.
He just noticed???
To say he’s “concerned” clearly implies that he’s also *surprised*.While serving in the Army I attained the lofty rank of Spec 5 and have never served in a President’s cabinet and yet knew from the very start that this would happen.I’m stunned that Mr Powell,a man with a resume that’s *far* more impressive than mine,is just now figuring this out.
Now you can lie in it.
Powell had no trouble supporting Pres.Obama and getting
him in Office. They are married at the hip.
I am also “concerned” as to why the RNC expects me to give them any money so long as they retain DEMOCRATS like POWELL in their inner circle.

Powell proved he was a Black first and an American second.
Hey Colon, you’re irrelevent so f**k off.
Doesn’t it make you wonder. We were told that to be good Republicans we had to support John McCain, so we bit the bullet and did it. Now we’re the pariahs and Colin Powell who voted for the Democrat is the respected Republican. Topsy turvy world.
I thought Powell was supposed to be a genius!
Well, excuse me as I go on a brief rant, but didn’t ol’ Colin choose race over party, country and common sense?
I am really tired of the Colin Powell’s of the world, really waiting for them to just go away. Retire your mouth, retire your a$$ and just go away.
No, he proved that he put racial politics first, and America second.
