Luckily, the Republicans have a friend like Colin Powell to prevent the destructive influence of conservatives and their beliefs. Powell is the ultimate moderate. When his party nominated a squishy moderate for president last year that the base had to hold its nose to vote for, he still voted for the other party. Now that is a moderate we can all learn from. He knows exactly what the American people want: two parties virtually indistinguishable from each other. That way if people ever begin to dislike one party, they can just vote for the other as a protest without having to worry about it differing from their values.
Eventually, people are going to dislike the Democrats — maybe thinking they’re going too far on spending (or not far enough) — and then Powell’s Republican Party will be waiting there as a completely innocuous alternative.
Conservatives could not see this simple wisdom, though. Rush Limbaugh (or “Fatty Fat Fat Stupid Druggy Fat Fat,” as I like to call him) had to pick a fight with Powell. His firm stances on issues scare away moderates like light startles cockroaches (cockroaches who often vote, mind you). All Rush did was point out the differences conservatives have with Powell — like how he supported Obama, is pro-choice, and is for bigger government.

Where’s the BARF Alert!
I almost posted this earlier, but didn’t want to deal with the few people who won’t recognize the tongue-in-cheek humor.
You’re a braver man than I. ;o)
LOL BUMP.
Maybe you should read it first.
This guy spells his name wrong. Should be Frankly Phlegming.
Frank J. is great.
He’s just a bit more subtle than most.
oops, I saw the fatty part and didn’t realize the sarcasm.
Some people need to develop their satire skills. Don’t let them get you down. Thanks for posting.
I see he was just being sarcastic. There is a lot of that going on today! LOL
He’s actually quite good.

Jack Johnson: "Now, I respect my opponent. I think he's a good man. But quite frankly, I agree with everything he just said."
John Jackson: "I say your three cent titanium tax goes too far!"
Jack Johnson: "And I say your three cent titanium tax doesn't go too far enough!"
Stopped reading.
RINOs/moderates are a plague on the Republican Party. CONSERVATISM is based on our founding principles. RINOs/moderates sabotage the fight for our individual liberties.
Right!
Powell is a centrist ... Democrat. He wears the Republican skin to gain something, what I really don’t know. He is like so many other RINO’s.
I’m really not impressed with his ‘Republican’ credentials.
Is the author related to Barney FRANK, the banking queen?
Boy, the thickness of some FReepers is unbelievable! This whole article is statire! It is a slam against the RINOs like Powell.
So tightly sarcastic most people won’t get it. OTOH his D.C. invites will soar.
Shows that a lot of people don’t read much of the articles.
