Then when there was talk about him being the best candidate in 2000 to run I was wondering what qualified him to make all these Republicans like him. Since I learned the difference between beltway Republicans and fly-over-country Republicans.
Then all my suspicions about him were confirmed in 2008 when he endorsed Obama. When he endorsed him again for 2012, i didn't even bat an eyelash because i knew who he was. So when saw these I had to write something up about him.
I guess the whole world makes sense once again, and I can continue trusting my gut instinct that I know comes from God. He always ties my stomach in knots about certain individuals, and I don't have a reason until some time later, but in time God always pulls the mask off those he tells me to stay clear from, and Colin Powell has always been one of those individuals.
Check out Colin Powell hanging with Calypso Louie in Jamaica during their 50 Independence Day celebration. I guess his endorsing Obama in "08" and now in 2012 makes perfect sense now.

Yes, but as I said I lost respect back in during the Gulf War one when he talked daddy Bush out of going to Baghdad.
Absolutely disgusting!
Its amazing isnt it. i too trust in my instincts. God almost always guides me. i am almost always right in the end. i can SEE evil. its scary.
you feel it but not sure why. Works the other way too. i get this amazing feeling when in the presence of good.
I'm wracking my brain to think of a single issue that is in tune with the republican party.
I could guess gay marriage, but Powell is probably on the democrat side on THAT, too.
Yet another Bush appointee..
The Klu Klux Klan was & is the Terrorist wing of the Democrat Party. The Republican Party freed the slaves from the Democrats. OBTW: Martin Luther King was a Republican & murdered by the Democrats. Wilkerson seems to be amazingly ignorant.
I had the same feeling about Powell when Bush 41 appointed him head of the Joint Chiefs in 1989. I was in Texas at the time visiting my aunt and I turned to her and my mother saying, “well, he’s an ‘affirmative action appointee.’” They both agreed. I was 23 then, half a lifetime ago for me. B-) Still like you, I get gut feelings about some people who I would not really trust.
Powell's Family Crest.
His father was Jamaican.
Amen by brother, Amen.
It’s called the Holy Spirit, and He promised to send it to protect and guide us.
When I get those feelings, I follow them, and I know that in time I will be shown the truth.
I felt the same way about Rick Warren and his book, “A Purpose Driven Life”. Many of my Christian brothers and sisters said I was being way too critical. But I had a big problem with his book when I heard Christians having Bible studies, but instead of the Bible, they were using Rick Warren’s book.
A big part of it had to do with his seeker friendly church models. For 2000 years Christians reached those lost in the dark the same way, why should we change just because men are more evil?
Well, eventually many others came to the same conclusion I had back in 2002 and 2003. Then 6 years later I was completely justified with my feelings when he did all he could to get the Christian community to accept him as a true Christian when he was anything but a Christian. Now most true Christians who have the light agree with me, 10 years late, but I trusted His Holy Spirit, and it did not lead me astray.
I give credit to God, and I always will. I am sure you do the same. We can just continue following His Spirit that guides us and we will not be led astray.
He knows His and His knows those who are also His and we know those who are not His.
Thanks for the ping!
Just as I told Donnafrflorida, we who belong to Him, are given a special sense to alert us to evil.
We need it, because as Paul said, Satan will disguise himself as an angel of light. He also tells us that in the end times God will send a strong delusion, that they should believe the lie, that they all may be condemned who did not believe the truth but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
We have the light, so we will be able to distinguish between good and evil, even when others whom we have respect for cannot.
So - it isn’t just about the skin color... Colon Bowel is a Farrakhan fool too...
Powell should be stripped of his military “honors”. Traitors don’t deserve them.
Compassionate idiot, semisolid on national defense, 1 for 2 on SCOTUS appointments. Mom loves him..I tolerated him.
Daddy Bush and Jr(shrub), neither had any real famaily jewels to pass along...RR’s unfortunate legacy of opening the door for Mooks!
Colin pile driver...he's in no shape or form a conservative. He's a plant!
Think! How would we explain to friends, to family and to the world we are what we are not? Could you anymore profess your liberalism, contradictingly professing to back conservatives, stand/sit before a national audience and tell/say the opposite?
Not me, I am who I am. FUCP! Honor something once in your life, besides your politics, creep!
