		<description>The Republican Party may not get certain ethnic groups in great numbers but that&#039;s because certain ethnic groups, by the pushing of the &#039;piece of the pie&#039; idea by Democrats, identify first with their ethnicity before anything else.  That is not the fault of the GOP that seeks to include people based on political philosophy rather than identity politics. For all the bigot, uninclusive, racist accusations that gets leveled at the GOP, we are the biggest tent ever. 

Liberals have never been below lying to push their agenda. You can see it all around.  Think about how many so-called &#039;Republican&#039; candidates who have been elected that either started voting with the other side, jumped to the other side, or demagogue their own party?  If you feel so bad about your party&#039;s politics, why are you affiliated with them? That goes back to the first sentence, they aren&#039;t really politically right.  They are leftist infiltrating the right so as to keep their agenda from moving forward.  But look around, a Miller or a Lieberman are a major anomaly.  Their side kicks them out or goes after them with lawyers or ethics violations.  The GOP elects our traitors as a Presidential Candidate or Secretary of State and then wonders why we get slammed and made fools of constantly.  It&#039;s not because we&#039;re closed-minded and unaccepting of different points-of-view.  It&#039;s because we are often too accepting we get the sh!t kicked out of us.

I personally think that I don&#039;t care who you are based on religion, creed, or ethnicity but I do care that you&#039;re conservative.  If you aren&#039;t, start your own damn Party or join the other one.  This kind of wishy-washy BS is disingenuous.  You either agree politically with one side or the other.  If you can accept a position in a conservative administration you should have honestly agreed with it and not used it as a position to promote your own beliefs.  If you were conservative in all honesty and being honest with the American people from the get-go then how can you support a Socialist bordering on Marxist/Communist without any qualms?  They are not one in the same.</description>

		<description>Obama: Powell will have a role in adminstration

By LAURIE KELLMAN – 6 hours ago

WASHINGTON (AP) — Colin Powell will have a role as a top presidential adviser in an Obama administration, the Democratic White House hopeful said Monday.

&quot;He will have a role as one of my advisers,&quot; Barack Obama said on NBC&#039;s &quot;Today&quot; in an interview aired Monday, a day after Powell, a four-star general and President Bush&#039;s former secretary of state, endorsed him.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;he has both style and substance, he has met the standard of being a successful president, being an exceptional president.&lt;/blockquote&gt;
And what exactly is your standard for a successful president, General?  Obama couldnt even meet the standard to run a convenience store much less the United States.  No offense meant to convenience store owners.</description>

		<description>These are the money quotes from Powell?  “He has both style and substance,” Powell said.  “I think he is a transformational figure.”

Good grief!  Why not go all the way and remind us that he is clean and articulate?</description>

		<description>Here&#039;s another angle. Powell has seen nations rise and fall andknows some of the elements that lead to both. He also knows that when nations fall to communists, the safest place to be is in bed with the communists. Maybe he is just a survivor and knows things we don&#039;t yet know. 

Or maybe he is just voting for identity politics like the rest of the black race seems bent on doing this time around.</description>

		<description>From TPM:

&lt;blockquote&gt;It&#039;s quite a blow for McCain on each point. But the most galling must be what Powell said about his judgment, his steadiness in moment&#039;s of crisis. Powell and McCain are both in their early 70s. Obama is a quarter century younger. And in so many words Powell said that compared to Obama, &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;McCain simply lacks the seasoning, the maturity to be president&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. 

--Josh Marshall
&lt;/blockquote&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Prima facie&lt;/em&gt; idiocy.

Powell:  Either one of them, I think, would make a good President.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;I think you’re missing something that is quite obvious to the undecideds. Oslime-a hasn’t strengthened his foreign policy bona fides on his on efforts, he needs Powell to do that. McCain IS establishing his economic bona fides ON HIS OWN with no endorsements needed.

To the undecideds, McCain looks stronger and Oslime-a looks weaker.

csdeven on October 19, 2008 at 7:08 PM&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Obama&#039;s foreign policy position is undoubtedly influenced by Powell.  I think Powell has been in Obama&#039;s kitchen cabinet for some time.  Don&#039;t look for any sudden smarts on Obama&#039;s part -- he&#039;s already accumulated all the smarts he can get for now.</description>

		<description>Legend:

Yes, but Powell helped bring about the war. That is what is so absurd about all this. Not long ago, no one on the left could stand this guy.

Now he is one of them. But ask them what they thought of his judgment when he went in front of the UN.

I think it is all about race and self interest. Powell is looking out for himself.</description>

		<description>They are gloating, right now, on the &#039;local&#039; news that Powell, &#039;the best republican, evah!&#039; has endorsed 0bama and how he repudiates the entire Republican party.

They gave this 90 seconds, right after giving Palin all of fifteen seconds, despite her actually campaigning here today.

Thanks a lot Colon. (&lt;em&gt;spelling intentional)&lt;/em&gt;</description>

I think a SecState who is former military is a negative message for those that fear us but really don&#039;t need to. What we need is one secatate who is former military to deal with the terrorist states and another civilian as secstate for everyone else. That may be why Powell was replaced.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;This ridiculous assertion is not helping.

Totally agree! (as usual)

These kind of accusations remind me of the mentality of the Krazy Kos Kiddies and the rest of the moonbats. We need to stick to the stuff that is verifiable or at lest have a very high confidence of veracity.</description>

Context Shelby, context. The polls don&#039;t matter. Only the ignorant follow the polls.

McCain is forwarding his plan without the need of some financial guru endorsing him as a way to give him credibility. The effectiveness and basic conservatism of it can be debated, but no one has their hand up McCain&#039;s back working his mouth.

Oslime-a is Charlie McCarthy and his advisers are collective embodied as Edgar Bergen. And after spending hundreds of millions on his coveting of the presidency, they still cannot seal the deal for him/themselves. So they trot out Powell and tries to ride his coattails into office.

If I remember correctly, you supported a different guy for the nomination. I understand that your guy didn&#039;t get the nomination. Neither did mine. But unlike you, I have put it behind me because the constant spumescence about it is unbecoming because it shows a person as shallow and shrill. 

You are starting to remind me of a slug covered with salt. You sit there in your agony frothing away. I suspect that many people realize this about you and have their salt shakers on the ready...because lets face it, torturing snails is an acceptable practice.</description>

		<description>Wish anyone who has a clue about what&#039;s going on with Obama and his completely ridiculous foreign policy &quot;positions&quot;, this just sounds like another black guy wishing to see a black guy in the White House so bad he&#039;d sell his soul to the devil.</description>

		<description>Come on Ed tell me you&#039;re kidding. Here are 2 quotes. First, Powell is a liberal, always has been. This is what we get for being friggin &quot;inclusive&quot;:

&lt;blockquote&gt;As a key reason, Powell said: &quot;I would have difficulty with two more conservative appointments to the Supreme Court, but that&#039;s what we&#039;d be looking at in a McCain administration.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

So he is concerned about Roe v. Wade but not about Obama plugging in 2 more whackjob Liberals that would legislate from the bench.

&lt;blockquote&gt;&quot;And I come to the conclusion that because of his ability to inspire, because of the inclusive nature of his campaign, because he is reaching out all across America, because of who he is and his rhetorical abilities — and you have to take that into account — as well as his substance — he has both style and substance, he has met the standard of being a successful president, being an exceptional president.&quot;&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Does that not sound like the basic talking points of any run of the mill Obama-bot supporter? I mean are you kidding me? He has a paragraph about his style and throws in &quot;and his substanc, he has substance&quot;. Kind of like he realized he forgot to throw that in.

Like Ace says:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Colin Powell was never a Republican. He was a military officer who knew how to play the political game during a period dominated by Republicans. Of course he kissed Republican ass. Just as he kissed Bob Woodward&#039;s ass to make sure he always came out smelling like roses in his books. 

But he&#039;s never been on our side. He&#039;s always been a liberal, and, moreover, he&#039;s always been on Colin Powell&#039;s side.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

And I will let the ex-military folks over at BlackFive say it perfectly:

&lt;blockquote&gt;Really, there&#039;s only one reason why a retired Army General, former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, former National Security Adviser and Former Secretary of State put his support behind without-a-doubt the least-experienced and the most naive foreign policy candidate for President the nation has ever seen. 

Job security.&lt;/blockquote&gt;</description>

		<description>I still believe that any Obama leaning voter was going to vote Obama no matter what. People will see the Powell endorsement for what it really is - one black man who is conventionally politically liberal endorsing another black man who is very liberal. Colin Powell was a false God for too many otherwise intelligent Republicans.

Everyone already made up their minds long ago who they were going to vote for. Endorsements ain&#039;t going to change anything. All we can do is hope for a great turnout for our side.</description>

		<description>&lt;blockquote&gt;And my thanks also to Hilts and ManlyRash. I didn’t expect that many responses when I checked back. I had always thought the Jews would/should vote Repub because of the Pub’s support of Israel. Your responses explain a lot.

You are right, Jews should support conservatives not only  because of Israel but for other factors as well such as opposition to affirmative discrimination, law and order on the streets, low taxes, and a variety of reasons, but as progressoverpeace states, the role of guilt is very germane to many Jews psyche -- after all how can we vote against the Black man?</description>
