Rush Limbaugh Responds To Colin Powell's Obama Endorsement- Laments Lack of Endorsement for "ineperienced, very liberal white candidates"

Well since we were already breaking the "NO posting on weekends" rule around here with our previous posts of the SNL skit where a moose bites the dust and putting up video of Colin Powell's endorsement of Barack Obama, I thought I would throw this out there for those of you who for some reason are reading and commenting on this blog on Sunday. Here is Rush Limbaugh's response to Colin Powell's Obama endorsement. From Politico.

"Secretary Powell says his endorsement is not about race," Limbaugh wrote in an e-mail. "OK, fine. I am now researching his past endorsements to see if I can find all the inexperienced, very liberal, white candidates he has endorsed. I'll let you know what I come up with." As for Powell's statement of concern this morning about the sort of Supreme Court justices a President McCain might appoint, Limbaugh wrote: "I was also unaware of his dislike for John Roberts, Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, Anthony Kennedy and Antonin Scalia. I guess he also regrets Reagan and Bush making him a four-star [general] and secretary of state and appointing his son to head the FCC. Yes, let's hear it for transformational figures."Politico

Colin Powell Endorses Barack Obama-- Is Powell Moving from Foggy Bottom to the Pentagon??

Well since I broke my weekend posting embargo to put up the SNL sketch where a poor moose meets his maker, I might as well put up some substantive news. Colin Powell just endorsed Barack Obama:

“I truly believe that at this point in Amserica’s history we need a president who will not just continue ... basically the policies we have followed in recent years,” he said. “We need a president with transformational qualities.” Colin Powell

Poor Colin Powell, his reputation and standing in the world ruined by carrying the water for an administration where he was marginalized and ostracized. Does this mean he might be headed from Foggy Bottom back to the Pentagon. How cool would that be? You can say what you want about him falling on his sword, but the last war he ran, was run competently.Y'all remember competence? That thing where people actually DO a heck of a job!
