I called him a POS 17 years ago!

Puh-leazze
Does "Colon" Powell approve of Sarah Palin as Obama's VP selection?


Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama was a surprise to absolutely nobody, well not me anyway.  I will not be surprised to learn at some future date that it was choreographed by Obama himself  for maximum impact, and it does have that, because a lot of people see Powell as a brilliant warrior, and a Republican. 

He is no  Norman Schwarzkopf, and his instincts were often dangerously wrong. But, he was/is a ruthless bureaucratic infighter which is what it takes, alas.  As Sec/State he was also, well, disloyal.  He was, and is, a pussy.  A  disloyal pussy.  Powell's stated  reason for supporting Obama?   Well, pretty much the same reason  those Harlem folks so eloquently expressed.  He sees Obama as a "transitional figure."  That's it.  Boy, he would be that.  I wonder if Colon  approves of Obama's choice of Sarah Palin as Vice President?

Durring extended times of peace, polititions and bureaucrats rise into the upper ranks in the millitary. When war breaks out, they are swept away and replaced with warriors. We have seen the cycle through out our history. And I wouldnt rule out 'Affirmative Action' in his case either.

*uck Powell. He undermined Bush at State, leaked damaging info and fought against Bush's policies. He also advocated to stop before we had Saddam out in the first Gulf War-it gave Bush 41 the excuse he needed to desist operations and it of course necessitated the invasion in 2003 and the subsequent loss of over 4,000 Americans. Better to have 1,000s of Iraqis die on the "Highway of Death"(thank you *ucking media) then our guys having to clean up after this asshole.

Look for him to figure in Obama's administration if he wins. Lord help us.

OTOH McCain was pretty good on FOX-You'd have to duct tape me to a chair and put toothpicks in my eyelids to watch Brokow-who was the more pompous on MTP?
