Colin Powell is Black Again

The only reason Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama is because he’s a racist, or, at the very least, because they’re both soul brothers. After all, even though Powell served in the administration of someone who was totally inexperienced, he had never before endorsed an inexperienced liberal.

Colin Powell woke up this morning as someone that was reviled by the left and most of the world for his phony WMD presentation before the United Nations on February 5th, 2003. He goes to sleep tonight, reviled on the right as a racist who puts racial solidarity over principle. Colin Powell was respected by the Washington elite and much of the right. Now he’s no better than Al Sharpton and Cynthia McKinney. I’m sure Powell knew this would happen. That’s why I’m fairly certain he’s sincere in thinking McCain-Palin will be a disaster for this country. If he didn’t think that, why would he subject himself to this abuse?
