Palin moved the party to the right? How could the vp pick of McCain have had all that power?The reality is that Palin was able to connect with the voters and gave them a reason to hold their noses and vote for MCLAME. Powell is pissed, because a relative unknown came on the scene and welded popularity within the GOP that Powell never had. The role of VP is to be the main candidates ATTACK DOG. Powell is such a putz, become a democrat already.
He didn't support his lifelong friend and democrat John McCain who was a center left candidate..he supported a 1/2 black radical liberal with no experience. Give me a fukin break loser libb. Republicans appeal to people who think for themselves reguardless of color!!! Americans period"" thats why you're a perfect democrat colin!~
If the Republican party appeals to people of color, then were McCain's votes 95% white and 5% non-white? Republicans can't just go around and say socialism this socialism that. Pull yourself up by your boot straps, small town values. Powell was right that Palin (I liked Palin even though I didn't vote for her) she is too polarizing. She prided herself with say terms like "Hockey Mom" Minorties do not play hockey in large numbers, so she was appealing to whites.
Powell lied to the World in order to sell us into WAR. He lied repeatedly and knew it. He has no credibility to me. I do not care if he supports Obama now, that only proves Obama is just like the rest of those elite politicians. Sarah Palin was a GIMIC. When they picked her, the republicans proved just what they think of the voters. They think voters are stupid enough to fall for tricks like "Joe the Plumber" and Sara Palin. Those Gimics and sideshows only fool their base. Stupid republicans.
Ok, maybe he forced to lie or lose his career if that was the case. I'm sure Cheney and Bush and Rove twisted his arm before he went before the United Nations.
The country LOVES Obama's CABINET picks. Even Fox (aka Faux) News gave him an 80% approval rating compared to W's 19%, because even they realize W's a HUGE Dumb-shit!
Scarah Failin was asked about her selection of a CABINET if she became President, and she stated "She couldn't decide between Maple, Oak or Pine"....an even Dumber-shit!
I'd love to see W & Failin go head to head in an IQ Test. It would prove to be a tie as BOTH have PROVEN to be "Dumb & Dumber" dumb-shits!
The RepubliCON Party is becoming more instinct by the day. With a new President extending himself to them, they make BIGGER assholes of themselves. What do you think MOST Americans think? The R"s are into losing MORE than the 55 Senate & House Seats lost in 2 years? How do they fix things? Hire a Black American to head the RNC! What HUGE dumb-shits. LOL!
I know you miss me terribly; but it's much MORE fun posting on Bulimic Drag-Queen Ban Coulter & Fat-Ass Drug Addict Flush Dimbaugh YT sites.
all the MEN in power over the last 50 years are all evil. Kissinger, Rumsfell, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Bushes, Nixon, Powell, etc. All of them are tempted by easy power and so they have corrupted themselves for that power. Now israel is killing off civilians and Obama's silence only saying he's for Isreal's action. Remember what got us out of the 1930 depression? now I'm afraid the stage is set once again and I'm afraid this time around we can not get out of this depression.
What a DOUCHE BAG. It is a shame he turned out to be such a Democrat. If the Republicans want to do well in the future they would be wise to ignore most everything he said and do the opposite. He says Palin would not be the way to go, so that means Palin is probably one of our greatest assets.
His wifey wouldn't let him run for President, he didn't, what a puss.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Listen to this affirmative action hire big mouth racist, who stabbed his republican helpers in the back and mouths off about conservatives. Powell, you would be nobody except for the kindness of the very party who promoted you. Go to hell. By jumping ship, he is hoping to catch another wave to keep his $250,000 cost per speaking engagements coming in.
You ought to go to hell yourself. People like you ignore the fact that what he is saying is true and will contribute to more Democratic wins in the near future. Republicans need to stop being traditional and start accepting the changes in socialism and new and better ideas to embrace it.
McCain lost the election simply because the Republicans didn't tap into the 'youth' and inabailiy to understand the middle class which mkaes up the majority of this nation. Keep it up! More Dems eras await!
This guy is very respected and frankly was seen as a contender for President! What hurt this guy MOST was his loyalty to Bush regarding the Iraq war. He resigned as a result of conscience towards what Bush was doing. If it is a problem for the GOP he put good sense and rational prudent action above ignorant idelology and dogma and people appreciate and admire that then so be it.
Sarah Palin must also be an affirmative action beneficiary to, because there is no way someone that dense could have got that far without some king of quota . And if you,ve done your home work you'll have established the fact that the top benefeciaries of affirmative action are whtie females but your probably to dense to gather facts.
Your too stupid. Sarah got elected by her debate skills and currently has an 80% approval rating. She got elected by voters dipshit, not govt policy. Powell did NOT get elected by voters, but by govt policy.
ectohmpson, A 263-page report released 10-10-08 by lawmakers in Alaska found that Ms. Palin, the Republican vice-presidential nominee, had herself exerted pressure to get Trooper Michael Wooten dismissed, as well as allowed her husband and subordinates to press for his firing, largely as a result of his temperament and past disciplinary problems. He had threatened the family also and termination was justifiable. The spirit of the law is what got him not her tampering as you apparently feel.
General Powell earned his position by serving his country honorably and earning his stripes . He was appointed head of joint chief of staff by recomendation from other millitary personnel in high places. It was he who lead the army into battle successfully in the gulf war. Like i said earlier go and gather your facts.I hope you conservatives nominate Palin in 2012 so you guys lose again
Tell me what's right about General Powell statement. He talked about 'don't ask don't tell' policy and today's world changes. Name one of today's military promoting full gayness in their uniform. How about his welfare statement? Didn't former president Clinton try to reform it? You might want to check the fact of how many Americans that is on welfare for decades and still are on it. When is it right that some work so others don't have to?
As Stanley Laurel used to say to Oliver Hardy, "He most certainly is." With every word and every well rationed thought he utters the disgrace of the policies and ideas of the past 8 years are illuminated. The Republican party needs to let those stinking constipated ideas pass, flush them away, and consume more heathly ideas in the future.
