Will Michael Steele please publicly TAKE AWAY this mans Republican membership card? For Pete’s sake already!  Full story from Newsmax HERE

“What we can’t continue to have is to have somebody like a Judge Sotomayor … called a racist, a reverse racist and she ought to withdraw her nomination because we’re mad at her,” Powell said in an interview broadcast Sunday on “State of the Union” on CNN.

Powell said Sotomayor has “an open and liberal bent of mind, but that’s not disqualifying. But she seems to have a judicial record that seems to be balanced and tries to follow the law.”

Tries – what a nice word – how about tries and fails to follow the law?  Ricci case is Exhibit A, Four out of Six of her decisions that have come before the SCOTUS have been Overturned.

Powell, a Republican who supported Obama, said his party still is not sensitive enough toward minorities.

The MSM will continue to leverage his “Republican” credentials against us until we kick him out of the party!  What the heck does “Sensitivity” mean?  Different rule of law for minorities?  guess what – Caucasians will be a minority as soon as 2042!  So will Republicans become insensitive to themselves?  This is an issue of Principles and Values folks, not Race or ethnicity.

He noted that Obama had a significant advantage with Hispanics and African-Americans in the November elections. He criticized Republicans who are not elected to office and “immediately shout racism” against Sotomayor, while accusing Powell of supporting Obama because both men are black.

“We still have a problem,” he said.

Radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh has called Powell “just another liberal,” said he should become a Democrat and charged that Powell endorsed Obama based on race. Powell said Sunday that Limbaugh “doesn’t decide who I am or what I am no more than I decide who he is or what he is.

Gee – I think I’ll start calling myself a Democrat and we’ll see how far that gets me…….

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.”
