And Obama does and from what that Palin hasn’t eclipsed? Would have been my followup, but I’m not surprised. He’s been a thorn in our efforts since before the 2004 election when all those surprising anonymous “tip” flowed from the State Department to embarssass the Administration. His “insurrection” led to Andy Card asking for his resignation.
Note also Powell’s words match verbatim the Obama campaign’s talking points on the “standing in the world” and the “economy”.
You’ll remember that in February he had told a group of students that electing a black president would be “electrifying“? That led to preliminary talks with campaign officials who - yes - offered him a position in the coming administration.
Side note, Powell appeared at Senator Ted Stevens corruption trial as a character witness and gave testimony that he trust Stevens completely and “As we say in the infantry, this is a guy you take on a long patrol”
Yeah, on a bridge to nowhere. Tells you everything you want to know about his endorsement of Obama.

Google Americal Division. Americal not American :)
Maybe this will wake up the “other race” and they’ll get into “block” voting.
Mr Ayer’s group was planning to bomb a military ball?
Mr. Ayer is claimed to help author Obama’s book?
Mr. Ayer is unrepentant and Obama lies about what he knows about him?
Mr. Ayer steps on the flag of The United States of America?
General Powell endorses these associations and misrepresentations when he backs Obama.
Why, it was Martin Luther King who said he longed for the day when “men would not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.”
The job of President is much like a football coach or a managing general partner of a major league baseball team. The ability to select people based on their talent and abilities for a job is paramount. In that area, Mr Bush seems to be lacking.
His success as Texas Governor compared to his Presidency is baffling.
No one is surprised.
The only people who care about Powell’s Obama endorsement is the media.
Powell is an AA case, sorry to say.
