Colin Powell: Conservative Quisling
Quisling Colin Powell continues to pretend he is a conservative and a Republican. In an Washington Post story today about a CNN interview, Powell suggest he an advisor to Obama, and DOES NOT actually object to the policy and programs Obama is trying to undertake, rather that he is trying too many AT ONE TIME. Read his words carefully my friends – he is working as a stooge – allowing the media to suggest that Obama’s policies are actually favored by some Conservatives, and that it’s merely a matter of approach to completing them.
We need to revoke this man’s Republican card, or do as I suggested HERE and start a new Party – the FREEDOM Party.
Someone please tell me what is the opposite of a “hard line fiscal fiscal conservative.” The vocabulary of the political discourse in our country if fascinating to me, and I have truly struggled with how the media would describe a free spending, uncontrolled liberal, because I am not convinced they can.
The below quote from the article sums up the BS that is Colin Powell – Democrat in Republican clothing.
Mr. Powell said he has been in touch with Mr. Obama regularly and recently.
“I don’t insert myself, but we stay in touch,” he said.
Mr. King prompted Mr. Powell’s comments by showing him footage of the former general’s comments at the 1996 Republican Convention in San Diego, where Mr. Powell talked about his opposition to big government.
“The federal government has become too large and too intrusive in our lives,” Mr. Powell said then. “We can no longer afford solutions to our problems that result in more entitlements, higher taxes to pay for them, more bureaucracy to run them and fewer results to show for it.”
Mr. Powell said that he still believes what he said then, but that he would put it in different terms now.
“I don’t like slogans anymore like ‘limited government.’ That’s not the right answer. The right answer is: Give me a government that works,” he said. “Keep it as small as possible. Keep the tax burden on the American people as small as possible. But at the same time, have government that is solving the problems of the people.”
