Powell calls out Hannity over obsession with Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright | The Raw Story
Retired Gen. Colin Powell is encouraging Fox News host Sean Hannity to give up his obsession about President Barack ObamaÂ’s former relationships with Bill Ayers and Rev. Jeremiah Wright.
“I find him one of the most divisive figures in — that I’ve witnessed in politics today,” Hannity told Powell during an interview on Tuesday.
“[T]hat’s a term that’s being used rather freely,” Powell noted. “I don’t think he’s that divisive an issue. … What could have been more divisive than, when President Obama was inaugurated, for a number of Republicans, friends of mine, and a number of commentators to say, ‘We’re going to destroy him. We’re going to destroy him’?”
“I wasn’t out to destroy him,” Hannity insisted. “I was critical about Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright.”
“Bill Ayers and Rev. Wright are just passing things,” Powell pointed out.
