How long 'til someone here calls Powell a libby dem muzzie luver?

But he did weigh in with his take on Obama’s foreign policy performance so
far.
“I think he’s done rather well, in fact. I mean, we are out of Iraq, which is
a timetable that President Bush had established, and I think we are slowly
turning over in Afghanistan in a sensible way,” Powell said. “Sooner or
later, the two countries, the two peoples – the Afghanistan population and the
Iraqi population – have to take responsibility for their own destiny and their
own future. So I think he's handled that well. He hasn’t gotten us in any new
conflicts.”
“I think he has been vicious on terrorists with drone attacks, getting rid of
Bin Laden, and things like that. I think he’s protected the country rather
well,” Powell added.

  WELL, BIG NEWS;
 
    So a far left liberal endorses Obama's foreign policy!    To quote Gomer Pyle.."Surprise....surprise!"
 
   Who here has not known for years, that Colin Powell is a leftie?  Hard to give a good score to "foreign policy" when there is a bloody war..often crossing our border..with the administration furnishing many of the weapons..
 
  Somehow, Powell does occasionally (accidently?) do the right thing..

   Problem is, few of the truly informed are listening to Powell anymore..

Ummmm, except Powell is not alone...there are significant numbers of GOPers and conservative that support Obama, maybe moreso than 2008, given the return of the GOP to extremism, lack of virtue, and uncompromising economic extremism.

   ANYBODY can set up a website, and confirmed Democrats can register as Republicans if they want to.  i see no real conservatives on that list,  In fact i see no recognizable names on their lists.

  Something else going on here..maybe a Soros buy out?  The article says Christie's (mild) speech at the convention was so hateful..that he changed his vote.     How was his speech more hateful than an obama co-conspirator calling Romney a "felon", or one of Obama's mouthpieces saying Romney "murdered" an old man's wife...and how many other hateful attacks by democrats...  Nope; something else going on here..

  This of course is an old article..written ..PRIOR TO our  suffering through the past 4 Obama mismanagement years.  THey had a list of about 15 Reps who drank the Obama Koolaid..  suppose we gathered the millions of Dems who have abandoned Obama.
Like puppies..eventually their eyes were opened..some of them anyway.

  So why should a far-leftie writing in favor of Obama surprise us?  Just look at his website..eco-freak, vegan-nut and anti-Israel smut being advertised and sold all through it!  ...And you are trying to pass him off as a conservative ??  You've GOT to be kidding!

Well golly-gee-whiz! I am truly shocked that Powell would say that about the Obamanation. Powell is "a left leaning Republican liberal" that ENDORSED Obama when he ran the first time. 
As far as that "drug war", I happen to know a great deal about that war, being a "20 year drug war veteran" of that so called war. I came to the conclusion thru the EXPERIENCE, that were it not for so many "dope fiends" in the United States wanting the "dope", there wouldn't be a "drug war" or any "drug cartels". Just an invasion of illegal aliens stealing jobs, and social services.

As far as foreign policy, did not hear Powell mention anything about the current situation in the Middle East! That really shows how " Great" OB`S foreign policy is working!!

[oldandslow]

Powell showed his true colors ( and that isn't racist) years ago. He's a liberal.

[SHOOTALL]

I happen to agree with him . I base it on what I have seen. As far as their FP well it looks like it ain't working .

Colin Powell is a liberal. Always has been, always will be. I think he voted on color this last time, as did many others. We have a "novelty president" plain and simple. America has a guilt complex, and has had for the last 150 years, so this was their way of easing their conscience.
Obama, hasn't a clue what it takes to be president, and is instead trying to punish what he thinks is a "colonialist nation". Powell on the other hand has been a whinnier since he left the Bush band.
Who cares what Powell thinks other than other liberals.
