I thought Colin Powell was Jamaican-American.
Powell endorsed Obama because he is black and for no other reason. There I said and I stand by it.
Rush has it right.
Powell was just accepting his pre-employment bonus from the Obombme administration.
Everybody wants to be apart fo a historic event.
The shame is , it will lead to an even more historic event if Obama wins,, the dissolution of the Republic and all it once stood for.
The Left will cheer that event and look who now stands with them.
Give ‘em hell, Rush.
We’ll just have to save America without General Powell’s help.
Rush is the best. Brilliantly put.
“Because he is black”...
Yes but i waited a long time,2 weeks before election day...?!
Powell couldn’t even muster the energy to attend the 2004 convention. I am wondering if Powell even voted for Bush.
Rush is right. This just makes African-Americans, at best, look cliquish.
Hey powell! We see right through you! Now we know you’re not just a dem, but you’re also no MLK, because you’re acting based on the color of your preferred candidate’s skin, not the content of his character.
I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed.George W. Bush.
NOTHING HERE, FOLKS. LOL. KEEP GETTING FRIENDS TO GO OUT AND VOTE - WE HAVE THE REAL NUMBERS TO DEFEAT THE SOCIALIST EMPTY SUIT!
What people don’t understand is that there isn’t just a difference in the way whites and blacks look at race - there is a CHASM.
I work in a mixed workplace environment in every way, white scientists and black scientists, scientists alongside the cleaning crews, etc., and we all talk politics. The whites nearly all think that worrying about race is an artefact from the not-so-good old days. The blacks, on the other hand, are consumed with race. Concerning Cynthia McKinney’s claim that the government up and shot thousands of people in New Orleans during Ike, and buried them in mass graves, the whites think this is ludicrous nonsense, while the blacks think it is entirely plausible. The level of paranoia that runs through the black community is unbelievably high.
It doesn’t surprise me at all that Powell would endorse Obama solely for the reason that he is black. It doesn’t surprise me a bit.
Ninety plus percent of black voters are voting for the black candidate.
I guess Colin Powell is no different.
SKIN FIRST COUNTRY SECOND....Thats IT
Read this interview at the link for more insight on Powell.
My fault with General Powell goes back to Desert Storm. Dick Cheney was SoD I believe and they had opposing views then. Powell joins the GW Bush Adm. and Cheney is VP. Powell feels he was hung out to dry by the Bush adm. when no WMD were found in Iraq after Powell’s UN speech. My impression Powell got his pride and feelings hurt.
Read the article and make comments if you disagree with my thinking. I’m often wrong.

Rush is right!
And if Bill Clinton is the first black president then Obama will be the first Muslim president.
Rush nails it.
