Thanks!
FOX and CNN are both represented in this thread.
Now that is fair and balanced reporting

Wait, are you saying Powell is endorsing him because he is black?
That is messed up on so many levels.
Colin Powell is a genius in my book, I seriously doubt that he is going to make a decision like that based on skin color.
So I guess the rest of the nation will vote McCain if they are white and Obama if black?
Who should the other races living in this country vote for? They are out of options huh?

Yeah, Powell who WORKED FOR BUSH is only voting for Obama because of his race. Makes sense, I mean it's not like he's ever worked for a white guy before. Nope only black bosses.

Yeah, when Bush and Cheney gave him information they KNEW was false. When Bush and Cheney did every thing they could to destroy Powell's credibility. Powell thankfully got out of it before he could be completely destroyed.

Oh so it's Bush and Cheney's fault he did nothing in his role.

Thanks for the correction. Thank God for Colin Powell, he did so much when he was in the Administration and before that.

Ya .. that's the ticket.

I take it your coffee wasn't black. No matter, Obama will win this election and you'll have to live through your worst nightmare. Forced abortion, evil socialist healthcare, an all gay military, a president that uses diplomacy, a new wing on the WhiteBlackhouse for Hamas, a black in power, a ban on speaking in tongues. It's gonna be a hoot.

right back atchya. ‘they’re so sneaky’? Trying to project that I claim black people are sneaky? That’s pathetic. Even for you.

It was reported this summer that Dr. Rice said in public that she wasn’t sure who she’d be voting for. And she said that she wouldn’t make it public, but would have her say in the ballot box.

Fox News Sunday

In Dr. Rice’s words – “Look, I’m the secretary of state, and as secretary of state, I think it’s a tradition that I’ll take a nonpartisan role here.
Everybody knows that I’m a Republican. Everybody also knows that I have great respect for our — for our political system, for the choices the American people will make. And as an American, will make my choice, like all Americans, at the ballot box. “

ABC News – paraphrase – Dr. Rice says she won’t be getting outwardly involved in pulling for anyone in the race.

NY Post Rice on Obama

to say that prominent black Republicans are going to vote for Obama because of his race is ... Ugh!

Obama gets 85-90% of the black vote nationwide.
Black politicians are just like everyone else.
UGH! Right back atchya.

Powell IS a brilliant and driven man! I have always thought so.

Too bad the search button isn’t working. I’d looooooove to pull up some of the things you have said in the past about Powell and Dr. Rice.
