Title: Cheney backs Limbaugh over Powell on GOP future
Post by: Hugo Chavez on May 10, 2009, 01:34:05 PM
Vader is a dittohead...  how special...  The republicans are done for a while with stuff like this lol...


WASHINGTON – Dick Cheney made clear Sunday he'd rather follow firebrand broadcaster Rush Limbaugh than former Joint Chiefs chairman Colin Powell into political battle over the future of the Republican Party.

Even as Cheney embraced efforts to expand the party by ex-Govs. Jeb Bush of Florida and Mitt Romney of Massachusetts and the House's No. 2 Republican, Virginia Rep. Eric Cantor, the former vice president appeared to write his one-time colleague Powell out of the GOP.

Asked about recent verbal broadsides between Limbaugh and Powell, Cheney said, "If I had to choose in terms of being a Republican, I'd go with Rush Limbaugh. My take on it was Colin had already left the party. I didn't know he was still a Republican."

Powell, who was secretary of state under President George W. Bush and held the nation's top military post under President George H.W. Bush, endorsed Democrat Barack Obama for president last year. Nonetheless, since the election he has described himself as a Republican and a right-of-center conservative, though "not as right as others would like."

Cheney, citing Powell's backing of Obama over Republican nominee John McCain, said, "I assumed that that is some indication of his loyalty and his interests."

Colin Powell is a left wing liberal who voted for Obama BECAUSE OF RACE!!!Why ANY republican would allow him to have ANY say in the party is beyond me.Powell should join the democrats as ALL his views are theirs.

I dont have a clue why.Why did a guy that owes his ENTIRE career to republicans vote for Obama?One reason!!!RACE!!!!!Why did a guy pretend to be conservative when hes really a lib?Perhaps to get ahead?He knows a black man in the democratic party doesnt stand out so he pretended to be a conservative to get ahead in the republican party.Then,once he got ahead,he sold them out.Hes a real scumbag.

I have eyes.This is a man that has wanted a moderate to liberal guy as the head of the republicans.We nominated THE MOST liberal to moderate guy in the party.Instead of Powell saying "yes,thank you",he voted for Obama.There can be no other rational explanation as Powells views are MUCH more in line with McCAins then Obamas.

mccain embraced Bush's economic and war policies.

These were not liberal positions he took.  They were far right.  And they were the 2 biggest issues in the election.

powelll said he rejected those positions.  it ain't rocket science, billy.  You bring up race 50,000 times a day, so we KNOW where you stand ;)

Ummm hey nut job.McCAIN voted AGAINST the Bush tax cuts!!!!!!Thats not embracing his economic policies as THAT IS he economic policy.He was against torture!!!!!!Powell WAS FOR the Iraq war!!!He made a speech to the UN describing it.McCain was for cap and trade,Bush isnt.aGAIN,A BLIND MAN CAN SEE WHY POWELL DID WHAT HE DID!!!!Keep sticking your head in the sand and pretend Powell did it because he believed in Obamas policies.Powell is a man that LOVED Reagan and called him the greatest man he ever knew.Tell me,is Obama ANYTHING like Reagan?No he is the ANTI-Reagan.The exact opposite of Reagan.

based on race and leveling the playing field for blacks!!!

Serious question here for you my friend...

Based on your statement above, can you explain HOW that is going to happen?  I mean seriously, what is being done to progress the blacks upward in order to "level" the playing field?

My belief is that people who get ahead are the ones that work the hardest, or work the smartest, and use opportunities that are provided to everyone (college, internships, etc..) in order to excel in their field.

How can you support your statement based on the fact that the people who want to get ahead, will do it anyway?  I mean, doctors and lawyers are still going to need college education, state licenses, etc..  Business owners are still going to need plans and such to succeed.

Where does your statement come from?

Hey buddy open your eyes.Obamas health care crap already has stated that he will squeeze doctors.Whats that mean?That means HE will determine what they make,just like HE will determine what CEOs will make.Just like he will attempt to determine what everybody can make.This has already started with financial institutions.Look what he did for the UAW.They got 55% OF THE COMPANY AND THE HARD WORKING,TAX PAYING AMERICANS GOT NOTHING!!Oh,Im sorry,we got to give them another 3 billion and soon another 4 billion.

Obama will "level the playing field" by things like card check,raising taxes on the "wealthy"[what he determines as wealth],more social programs,government controlling just about everything,federalising education to push more diversity training,forced community service[guess where our kids will be serving?In Obamas black communities].Hate crime legislation[and soon to follow thought crime legislation].All of this is intended to push down those who work hard and do well.He doesnt want to lift people from poverty,he wants to push more into poverty.Its forced reperations from "crimes and sins from the past".He will make right what he sees as the rich stepping on his people to get their wealth.

Sorry, but in 2007 he REVERSED his positions on the bush tax cut.   There are many youtube clips showing him trashing the shit out of the Bush tax plan for 7 years, then suddenly embracing it in 2007 when politically convenient.

I await your response :)

Wait - so Powell - knowing a TON about the military - STILl chose the newbie to the war vet.

Speaks volumes.

So his health care system won't affect black doctors?  Only white ones?
Card check won't affect any black businessmen at all?  Only white ones?
He will only raise taxes on the wealthy whites and not any wealthy blacks?
Forced community service will only be required of white kids?  Not black kids too?

Is that what you are saying?  Because otherwise, your entire rant is completely irrelevant and without a single valid point.

So far you have not listed a single thing that will hinder only whites or benefit only blacks.

YES,THATS WHAT IM SAYING.You watch when cap and trade passes.THE ONLY people who will pay higher bills will be white tax paying Americans.The fools in Obamas communities will get a pass.Guaranteed.Wealthy blacks are such a small percentage ,its like saying short basketball players.Yes,the tax cuts are aimed at wealthy whites,there will be some residual damage to the few wealthy blacks,that Obama doesnt really consider black at all[see his comments to Steele at the dinner the other night].

Guaranteed,forced community service WIL NOT extend to certain communities.They will get a pass.You watch and see.Blacks in the inner city will not be forced to do it.Its just like hate crimes.ONLY whites will EVER be charged with a hate crime,NO BLACKS.36,000 BLACK ON WHITE RAPES NOT ONE BLACK charged with a hate crime.

Obama will take the damage to a few well off blacks,in order to punnish wealthy whites.Much like Tim McVeigh killed a few kids and called them "causualties of war".His plans are to level the playing field and right the wrongs of the past.Its forced reperations.

He revised them AFTER seeing they worked.Revenues to the government INCREASED because of the tax cuts.He was still VERY opposed to the unhinged spending by Bush.He was for cap and trade Bush was against it.He was against "torture" Bush was for it.There is no way in the world you can say McCain is like Bush,its a silly statement.By the way,FOR YEARS Powell was for tax cuts and praised Reagan.Now he is for tax increases and actually lies to us and says "Americans want to pay more taxes"?The guy is a sell out plain and simple.He put Race above the country.

Its amazing how once people become rich and get their fortune that they then support higher taxes on the rest of us.

I hate John McCain,and have stated that many times.I despise him and wish he would GET OUT of the GOP.This thread was about why Limbaugh is a better republican then Powell and why Cheney backed Rush over Powell.Powell is a sell out,he supported THE MOST liberal politician in this country.You say it wasnt because of race.I dont see how a guy who calls himself a republican can vote for the most radical ,left wing politician in the country and it not be 100% based on race.They agree on almost no issues at all.

powell and obama agreed on the war and the economy.  Along with most Americans.

In the final 2 months before the election...
Mccain said 100 years of war, and the economy is strong fundamentally, and i've always supported the Bush tax cuts.

Powell agreed on the war?THE FUCKING GUY MADE THE CASE TO THE UN FOR WMDs.What are you talking about.Revisionist history!!!By the way,has Obama brought back one troop from Iraq?He has said hes leaving 50,000 in there.So,it looks like he is following the Bush plan.He is doing the same in Afghanastan.The economy is strong fundamentally.Obama said THE EXACT same thing a couple of months ago.Revisionist history again.
