What he doesn't want the world to know, is that he had his doubts, but played along anyway.
I wonder if he’s reflecting on ‘hubris’ right now...
If Colin Powell was white, he might have been a reasonably successful manager at a Wal-Mart store.
Colon likes being a house black rather than a field black. Food is better. I respect the field blacks, they works for their food, Colon does a Monica on everyone in the house.
Why does anyone listen to the racist Colon? He said that he voted for B.O. because of his race (twice)!
Powell was just the ORIGINAL AFFIRMATIVE ACTION GENERAL, he just stuck with it long enough to become the first AFFIRMATIVE ACTION CoJCS.
The guy is an affirmative-action racist political hack LIB loser kiss-up. His career should have ended right after My Lai.
the one thing this election cycle has taught me is how much elitist have manipulated me over the years. I am embarrassed that I defended in public what the bush family did while in office, I am embarrassed that I was impressed by Powell when he was a general. I now realize he was a perfumed peacock. at this point the trust factor for me of anyone in the republican party is about 30 percent and 5 percent for the democrats. I think that any politician that has strong links to the bohemian grove should be ignored.
An affirmative action hire and nothing more.When the rubber met the road his true colors shown thru.
So glad to read other ppl saying the same kinds of things about Powell. I called him a whiny bitch earlier, a malicious gossip, due in part to reading his own words, where he talks to another guy about having to have a tantrum to get some attention from Clinton’s minions; crybabies about not being able to charge a high enough fee; calls white people poor white trash; etc etc.
I keep thinking about how Americans trust a man like him to be better than the rest, because he’s responsible for so many lives, and leading from a position of strength—to find out what he’s really like, makes his military leadership very suspect, and his character lacking.
Calling him Colon Bowel is so childish & immature...made me laugh! Right on.
co-sign!
BTTT.
not transformational?
Powell must think socialism is not enough.
Agreed, there is something too convenient about this. Would he like to be President, if Hill keels over?
Powell got his big boost from RWR and promotions from
the Bushes. That explains why he became a Republican.
He had almost no identify with the philosophy of any
wing of the party. He was befriended by powerful
Republicans, that’s all. If you think about it the
same is true for weakling Arnold Swartzenegger.
Yes why Colin emails, very strange indeed.
Let me be blunt. Colin Powell has proved himself to be a “dick”. His word, not mine.
A few outed emails and he has burned all the bridges he has spent years trying to cultivate.Good.Go back to the Grove and worship the trees CP.
Exactly correct, and is why we can't have career politicians. That type of system attracts and concentrates people like this.
More’s the pity.
