Colin Powell--Republican?

Colin Powell fires back...

Labels and words no longer mean anything?
Republican, Democratic, Marriage, Straight, Gay, Patriotic, Honest, Moral, Legal, Illegal, Alien, Global Cooling, Global Warming, Rich, Poor, Black, White, Hot, Cold, Natural Born Citizen, Journalist, The Media, News, Citizen, Green, Pollution, Earmarks, Bribes, Campaign Donations, Corruption, Efficient, Economical, English, Spanish, Terrorist, Pirates, Allies, Enemy, Constituional...
With the current Campaigner in Chief track record the informed voter should not pay attention to any words uttered. We are beyond the question of "Does Character really Matter?" It is obvious it does not, therefore words do not matter either. Speeches are words put together for the "News Media" to have something to occupy their time either debating, arguing, or bringing in biased and funded supporters to pontificate about. Since The Media no longer investigates, challenges, and exposes this Administration, they must have a collection of Meaningless Words to occupy their useless time while they are growing broke blaming it on something or someone else, or the internet.

What they can't avoid is, "Do Actions still Matter?" I maintain that you can change all the definitions you want to, but in the end actions have consequences which the slick Politicians can deny and blame on their opponent through meaningless words. But actions are where they ultimately must be held accountable.

Colin Powell has the right to claim he is anything he wants to be and has (Obama and Clinton have established this precedent). The Media will continue to avoid the clarification of the Words. In the end, The Voter has the responsibility to judge all men/women on their actions.

Maybe Powell did vote for Obama. Maybe Powell doesn't care whether Obama is a Legal Office Holder or a Marxist. Maybe Powell supports an Obama Spending Plan. Maybe Powell wants to close Gitmo without a plan. Maybe Powell wants to spread the wealth. Maybe Powell didn't see the integrity of President Bush.

Maybe Powell doesn't know the difference between a Republican and a Democrat.

Do you?
