Retired General Colin Powell was interviewed by CNN and the interview will air on Sunday, July 5th. Powell elaborates how he is concerned with Obama's spending. He feels the government spending is out of control and we need to reverse what is happening. He feels Obama needs to take a hard look at the cost of all this spending.
Really? Powell was and still is, supposedly a Republican. He broke party ranks and endorsed Obama for president. Now, If you had read my works at all, you know I have no love for the party system, and anyone is free to endorse anyone he or she chooses. But didn't Powell realize Obama's spending plans back when he endorsed him? Obama never made a secret about how he wanted to increase government, spending and entitlements.
That's a main reason I did not vote for him. I believe in smaller government. Why did Powell endorse Obama then? If he truly felt as he said when he endorsed Obama, that the Republican party abandoned their ideals, then why endorse someone he KNEW would increase government if he never believed in that?
