Nobody has called Colin Powell a Republican for at least 14 years.

More to the point, nobody has called Colin Powell relevant over a decade so I am not sure anyone actually cares who or what Colin Powell calls himself.

Powell's entire career was based based on being a Bush Family designated African American and his job performance in the positions the Bushes was not exceptionally impressive.

Unlike others, he never went on to distinguish himself in the private sector where performance and talent are more important than being the “historic first African American” at what ever position the Bush family wanted to make a historic appointment.

Colin Powell made a career out of being Colin Powell and for the most part, the people who gave him positions both in and out of government eventually discovered that was his primary skill set. He had an impressive reputation but for the most part, he never lived up to a reputation that was mostly hype.

That said, he was in no way an incompetent or a buffoon. He was more like a solid but undistinguished, fence sitting yes man who had difficulty making hard decisions on critical, major world issues .

Sad, but true.

Don’t worry Colin. We haven’t thought of you being a Republican for well over a decade.

Colon Bowel drops the same load of fecal matter he has dropped for years. The only difference is it stinks more every time.

Even democrats will be saying

“What?!? We always thought you were a liberal, judging by your record and anti-republican votes and anti-republican rhetoric”.

One’s true colors always shine through. You phony!!!
