Bitter? Tastes a bit nutty…
Looks like it’s now official—Powell endorses Obama for President.
You can vote for who you want for in this country and you don’t have to give reasons—that’s part of the beauty! But when you do give reasons for political purposes be prepared to standby them and take heat for them.
Example of Powell’s reasoning:
“I don’t believe [Palin] is ready to be president of the United States,” Powell said flatly. By contrast, Obama’s running mate, Sen. Joe Biden of Delaware, “is ready to be president on day one.”
But he has no problem with Obama’s lack of experience… And he cleverly compares Joe Biden’s experience to Palin, because if he compares Palin to Obama it doesn’t work—after all Powell is a military man and strategy is important.
The most ironic part (is coming) will be that the people who demonized Powell for his part in the Iraq war will put all kinds of weight and faith in Powell’s judgment and endorsement of Obama. Watch, you’ll see. Hypocrites where are you??? There will be hypocrites on both sides because there will be republicans that will demonize Powell for his Obama endorsement
It’s all about seeing what you believe…
Present!

PS
As far as speculation, I wonder why, Powell, a lifetime Republican is endorsing a very socialist minded Obama.

The pictures are so good! Powell as Tony Manero in Saturday Night Fever!
