Correction: He’s a “little concerned.” This from a guy who, not two months ago, declared that “Americans are looking for more government in their life, not less” and who even here responds to a clip of him speaking at the 1996 GOP convention by announcing, “I don’t like slogans anymore like ‘limited government’” — before proceeding to voice his worries about “additional government.”
Exit question: How seriously should we take someone who makes Mark Sanford sound coherent?

I have zero respect for this man any longer. He is a toadie for Obama, and a racist of the first order.

Colin Powell, Megan McCain, and David Frum should be reverse cloned into one completely irrelevant being that nobody gives a crap about. That’s my idea for reducing carbon emissions.

No offense meant, but Powell is a dumb ass. He should just STFU from now on.

I lost a lot of my respect for him when he endorsed Obama and have to admit I haven’t gotten it back.

Of course Powell is “confused”. Powell was a “lifer”. He spent 35 years in a dictatorial, oligarchical organization in which free market principles and the constitution do not apply. As an officer, and then a general officer, he was bestowed with privilege and perquisites that to not apply to the private soldier or private citizen. Although I respect their service, sacrifices, and accomplishments in the military I am hard pressed to find examples where that extends into civilian life.

I lost a lot of my respect for him when he endorsed Obama and have to admit I haven’t gotten it back. Me too. Whatever principles he had were overruled by racism.
