It's always interesting to me that the more liberal a person is, the more intolerant of others they are. Colin Powell has made choices that Belafonte doesn't like. That's fine. Yet he feels it necessary to make derogatory remarks about his friend in a public forum that were unnecessarily cruel and ugly. It's always about being a "victim" with Belafonte.

Belafonte "admires" the actor Paul Robeson. Robeson was a devout communist and supporter of Joe Stalin who went to live in Russia while his hero was murdering millions and never said one word of criticism of STalin or his policies. What would one think of some washed-up entertainer who openly "admired" Leni Reifenstahl, Hitler's favorite moviemaker?
