From CBS.com: “I am still a Republican. I’d like to point out that in the course of my 50 years of voting for presidents, I have voted for the person i thought was best qualified at that time to lead the nation. Last year I thought it was President-now Barack Obama,” Powell said.

Powell also addressed criticism from conservative radio host Rush Limbaugh, saying his assertion that Powell only voted for President Obama because “he is black” was “unfortunate.”

Colin Powell is a liar and a coward. He sabotaged Pres. Bush whenever he could, leaked to the NYT whenever he could, kept his mouth shut while Libby was being raked over the coals, and is a DNC waterboy.

Nevertheless it’s true, Mr. Powell.

It’s only unfortunate for you, because you have been exposed as a racist that votes according to race even when it means voting for an anti-American, Kenyan Marxist, one who would not place his hand over his heart during the National Anthem, but would bow before a Moslem potentate.

Unfortunate that Rush let the cat out of the bag, he?

Powell is a RINO-in-name-only.

Cheers!
