Colin Powell’s RINO Virus

Politics: Our former secretary of state savages as “mean-spirited” and “driven by social conservatism” the party that gave him prominence. Americans, don’t you know, really want more taxes and more government.
Seems there’s no shortage of advice these days from inside and outside the GOP on what the Republican Party needs to do to return to power. Colin Powell is no exception as he continues to snipe at the party that, thanks to appointments by Presidents Reagan, Bush and Bush, made him a national icon.
“The Republican Party is in deep trouble,” the former general and secretary of state told corporate security executives at a conference Monday in Washington, D.C.
Powell said he told 2008 GOP presidential candidate John McCain last summer that the party had developed a reputation for being mean-spirited and was driven more by social conservatism than the economic problems America faced.
Perhaps, if all you watch is MSNBC.
