I don't know whether to be infuriated or justified. Found this article on Newsmax about an upcoming interview on Turners Obama boot licking news station and took a few quotes from it.
"Colin Powell blames Rush Limbaugh and conservative talk radio for Republican electoral woes."
"Powell ... still considers himself a Republican but said his party should quit listening to Limbaugh for advice. Instead, it needs to look more to minority groups if it wants to win elections in the 21st century."
"Powell, the first African-American to hold the secretary of state position, made it clear that race had played a role in his decision to back Obama,"
"Ironically, conservatives like Limbaugh had strongly opposed John McCain during his presidential campaign, while Powell donated $2,300 to McCain during his primary effort."
If the Republican Party would stop listening to the centrists and get back to its core beliefs we will win the next election. Lower taxes, less spending, smaller government.
There was a time I would have voted for Powell had he run for President. But, when he deserted his own party to endorse Obama I was disappointed. I knew he did it, not based on political views, but because he wanted to support "a brother". It shows the American people what kind of man Powell is. A racist turncoat who can no more be trusted than his brother, Obama.
The Republican Party doesn't need to cater to one race or the other, it needs to cater to Americans and abide by The Constitution. Why cater to people who apparently are not willing or intelligent enough to educate themselves, at least a little bit, on the subject of politics and who vote on the basis of race. When those people that voted for Obama don't receive the free rent or free gasoline that they think they are going to get they won't be out there voting in the next election. Just like they didn't vote in previous elections. This election was an anomally that won't happen again anytime in the near future. Actually, I should call it like it is - a fraud. With ACORN committing widespread voter fraud, with MSM being bought off by the libs, and news anchors making statements like "Vote early. Vote often".
John McCain was not the person the RNC should have nominated. He is too centrist. The RNC needs to go through and "out" those in the party that are actually dyed in wool liberals . The only thing good that came out of this election was a little known Governor from Alaska came into public view. She has more balls, more common sense, and the ability to handle the job of POTUS more than anyone in in either party.
Back on subject. Powell needs to go crawl back in his hole. He has ruined his political career. He has shown he cannot be trusted. I don't see Obama giving him any of those precious cabinet positions for his endorsement. And I don't see to Republican Party welcoming him back with open arms. He screwed himself because he chose race over country. Same as the people that voted for Obama screwed themselves and all Americans when they chose to vote based on race.
NO! We are sick and tired of catering to the blacks! How about let's cater to the American People. Aren't we a country of Americans, afterall?
