Powell airs doubts on Obama agenda

Saturday, July 4, 2009
Colin Powell, one of President Obama’s most prominent Republican supporters, expressed concern Friday that the president’s ambitious blitz of costly initiatives may be enlarging the size of government and the federal debt too much.
“I’m concerned at the number of programs that are being presented, the bills associated with these programs and the additional government that will be needed to execute them,” Mr. Powell said in an excerpt of an interview with CNN’s John King, released by the network Friday morning.
Mr. Powell, a retired U.S. army general who rose to political prominence after a long and accomplished military career, said that health care reform and many of Mr. Obama’s other initiatives are “important” to Americans.

But, he said, “one of the cautions that has to be given to the president — and I’ve talked to some of his people about this — is that you can’t have so many things on the table that you can’t absorb it all.”
“And we can’t pay for it all,” said Mr. Powell, who was the first African-American to serve as secretary of state, under former President George W. Bush. He was also national security adviser to President Reagan, and was chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under President George H.W. Bush from 1989 to 1993.

Most brainwashed tool on this entire website reconmary, eat some more ISraeli anus. Powell willingly bullshitted the world with his WMD fairy tales(you still believe buddy? Awww, how cute.) so calling him truthful is kind of laughable, but not unexpected from an ass kisser and elite cock smoker like you. And Obama is just the latest tool, you fall for the whole sideshow im sure, but hes a puppet at best. the elites want you to focus your uninformed anger on him though. Mission Accomplished(you liked that guy more right Mary?) you dim bulb.

Ah – maybe old Colin is starting to come to his senses. After he slapped McCain in the face by supporting this Marxist we now have in the white house. A little buyers remorse maybe?

Maybe we can’t afford to pay Powells retirement benifits, wasn’t he the one going in front of the U.N. with cartoonish drawings of “mast destruction weapons’ in Iraq? It sure must be nice being a career mooch with the goverment and not have to worry about being a liar that cost thousands and thousands of lives.
Maybe the American people are tired of paying for his fancy house in Mclean, Virginia. The one two blocks from the c.i.a. (creeps in america)

I will always remember Colon holding up the vial of supposed anthrax in front of the U.N. regurgitating Neo-Con lies.
And all the death of women and children that were and are resultant of that very moment.
He should die a thousand times over in the most painful and gruesome ways.

Collin now sees that when his favourite new black president, he chose him because he was black btw, not because he was qualified, began to take over banks, car companies, tax on
so called energy carbon tax, new so called free medical for all including illegals, open borders,
Powel is a RHINO and now wants off the fence, he is no conservative, but a sell out to all freedom loving people.
