“Many who knew him respected him greatly”

When he was made Chairman of the JCS it was discussed around my Government Contractor office whether he was qualified or just an affirmative action selection.

A retired Colonel in the office served with him and had nothing but respect for Powell.

So we concluded yes he was qualified, however him being black was a reason for his selection.

Powell was the epitome of the affirmative action Jackson

And then when he voted for Barack Obama imagine a man of the military voting for the communist Obama he showed us that he was a racist rather than a patriotic American

Good riddance. These bastards can’t die fast enough
