Colin Powell: GOP Holds 'Dark Vein Of Intolerance'

[Lakhota]

President Obama will likely secure a third term in the White House.

How would he do that?

"shuckin' and jivin" isn't that a sports term used primarily for football running backs.

You can't be that dumb. Can you?

He's being wilfully obtuse.

2014 will be a WASHOUT of epic proportions if the Republicans keep this crap up.

I can't WAIT!!

you said that about 2010, didn't you? Didn't you also predict that the Democrats would end up with a super majority in the Senate and the House this year?

Pretty good record so far.

I find it amusing that the brain dead on this site continue to try to say that the party that elected a black man as the most powerful man in the world and the top man in their party is racist. Projection is clearly a huge component of ODS.

I looked over the sea of white faces at the Republican National Convention and wondered how they every get racial minorities to vote for them. Talk about the party of Old White Men. Romney's ". . . binders full of women" comment was just the cherry on the top of the ice-cream sundae that was Mittens entire campaign. How has a 50 something Wall Street Business executive never met any capable, competent women in all of his working life? Not one - he had to get binders full of women to help him with his appointments. It boggles the mind.

i look over the sea of old white mean in Obama's new cabinet and wonder why he isn't asking Romney to borrow those binders.

"Designing Woman", really? More like pathetic dupe. Do you really think limiting a search to fill highly responsible positions in Government should be limited to just people your familiar with? Only a freaking idiot would do that and the method used to compile the files on possible candidates is really immaterial. The point is to cast the widest net possible to find the best and the brightest to surround yourself with, a concept your dear leader has yet to learn. You might want to take a management course or two before you try to disparage the management style of successful people.

Please spare me the business 101 lectures. I'm qualified to teach the course. I know exactly what I'm talking about. It was Mitt's entire language and discussion around working women and women's issues, that was the issue. There are multiple reasons why 60% of women, overall, voted for Obama, and one of them was Romney's utter and abject lack of knowledge regarding women's issues.

The whole GOP treated women's issues in the campaign as unimportant compared to manly things like the economy. Most of women's rights issues are economic issues: access to birth control is an economic issue for women. That's why the only female demographic to vote for Romney in large numbers is married white women.

84% of the people who voted for Romney were white. When the party runs ads that say that Obama doesn't understand "traditional American values", that's code for "Obama isn't white" and that phrase was heard time and time again throughout the Republican campaign. The minorities certainly took it mean this is the white people's party and they have no interest in us. And they're probably right.

You got duped, and you are upset. That is perfectly normal, I suggest you stop trying to blame everyone else and admit you were wrong.

So do you do anything but rambling idiocy with nothing backing up your assertions and just boring nonsensical rhetoric or is this it?

Yeah conservatives and republicans aren't racist.

It's amazing how these idiots have no self awareness.

The fact that you can find some conservative Republicans that are racist does not change the fact that most of them are not. If you had an ounce of honesty in your racist psyche you would admit that upfront.

Blah blah blah, that is some nonsensical logic you have there. And you have poor reading comprehension as I never said all conservative Republicans are racist. Care to try to attack me again?

Yep, and the guy in your avatar is a champion of Negro rights to get the crap beat out of them, which is why he supported gun control.

You expect an amendment to pass Congress and get approved by 3 out of 4 states in less than two years?

They elected him to prove how they aren't racist, some of us aren't fooled.

Do you actually think before you type or do you think you're winning arguments because you're spamming threads with your nonsensical rambling?

From the man who claims that Obama getting elected proves people aren't racist when he argues that everyone who voted against him is.

With absolutely no evidence, nonsensical logic, fuzzy thinking and a rambling idiocy that doesn't connect thoughts or points. Yeah okay, when you get close to something tangible or credible, we'll be sure to let you now. Right now you're just coming across like a moronic pill head spamming this thread with nonsense.

Powell's character is a simple thing to sum up.

He is a Disgrace to the Oath he took when he joined the military.
You know....it includes...to Protect and Defend the Constitution.

That oath has no expiration date.

Since obama and minions treat the Constitution like it's cage lining, for Powell to endorse obama not once, but twice....
Powell is a disgrace to the Oath he took.
He should be Ashamed.

He should switch to the socialist dimocrat party.

 

[squeeze berry]

Why don't you have this level of vitriol for the people in your party who perpetuate the racist stereotypes?

Instead you DEFEND them, but bash and attack those that call your party out.

When will you folks put down the shovels and stop digging?

Who is defending racism? I'm not. But I'm sick to death of these blanket condemnations.

If Powell truly feels that his party is full of racists he should cross the floor and become a Democrat.

Because Sununu criticized Obama's performance in the first debate as lazy, Powell sees it as racist.

He's nuts.

Then you simply weren't listening...you're just reacting...as usual.

General Powell sited specifics. He cited the quotes that many people deem racist, he cited quotes from specific people in the party that spewed incindiary things.

It was no blanket...he's attacking the racism...and those that are attempting to use racism to get a certain base riled up.

That is what you should be riling against. Not those, like General Powell, who's fighting the more radical element in your party.

If you really had any sense or credibility at all, you'd be JOINING General Powell, not FIGHTING him.

Seriously.

calling Obama lazy is racist?

WOW

what a stretch
