"We forgot to mention Colin Powell, seems he is trying to get back in the good graces of the Republican party. Challenging Rush Limbaugh. I still cannot believe that anyone could consider Rush Limbaugh as leader of the party."
Colin Powell's most enduring legacy is standing in front of those maps of Iraq and pointing to all the places Saddam Hussain was supposed to have hidden weapons of mass destruction. He did that with appropriate glee and loyalty to the Bush Administration, in which he served as Secretary of State and Security Advisor. All his seemingly futile efforts are in order to distance himself from the President he pledged alligence to but had no trouble to stab in the back, when the opportunity was ripe to support a charismatic punk for nothing but (half) race.
Then the unthinkable happened: a charismatic half-breed punk who chose to be black in spite that anything black in his life dropped him like yesterday's garbage, became the nomineee of the Presidency. He knew what he was doing: if you are black you are immune to criticism, because all those who dare to criticize you are RACISTS.
As one half-breed to another what else could Powell do?
What else? Give up principles as weak-spined and calculating people usually do.
Rush Limbaugh has ten times the character, the strength and the integrity of Powell.
