So Powell says he is not happy with some of the bad things some Republicans have been letting other Republicans say about Obama! Makes you wonder if he has noticed what Obama supporters have been saying about Powell, Bush, Cheney and all of Powell's subordinates. There probably is a heavy intimidation going on in the "black community" as reported by Tavis Smiley and others. We now know that "transformational figure" is code for "the black guy". I am reminded that Powell was promoted to General over many senior to him by the black Secretary at the time, who said "bring me the record of a black officer". (I saw the guy say it on CSPAN, and he was very proud of it). So, Powell is just paying back the favor. After all, in some factions, race is thicker than principle. The ranking US Officer siding with the anti war crowd? I hope he knows something I don't.
