Is Colin Powell Ready To Endorse?

Today Colin Powell endorsed Barack Obama for the following reasons ...

A small part of a clip on Yahoo news. If it's a lie, they told it.

"Powell said he was cognizant of the racial aspect of his endorsement, but said that was not the dominant factor in his decision."

Now I gotta ask, should his race not only not have been a "dominant factor", but actually not a factor at all?????? Wonder how it would go over if someone said "Obama's race is not the dominant reason I'm not voting for him."

powell would not have convicted OJ.
why would this be any differnt!
you know it works, us "blogers" have to stick together.

I have neither the desire, nor time to watch all of your videos, and read all of your cartoon postings. I'm just asking a question here. Should race be a factor on who someone votes for? If you feel that by asking that question I'm this or that, then so be it. If you think race should be a factor, then so be that as well. I, myself do not think it should. However, in my prior post I didn't state my opinion on the matter. I simple asked a question. I guess just having an opinion you don't like is more than enough required for your "come backs" now. Now it seems just asking a question you don't like will do the trick.

"MORE RED STATE LOGIC"

So I guess my whole State is wrong by me asking an opinion question. My state can at least figure out how to work a voting booth.

Don't get all 'uptight and funny' now BM.
I was only 'enhancing' your post.

I wasn't offering any personal opinion or asking
any questions in that post.
But I will now.

You seem concerned that Powell stated his race position as he did.

Just why does that concern you?

Hahaha. Good one.

It should concern anyone that someone would allow race to be a factor at all in who they vote for.

By the way, thanks for the offer, but my post did't need "enhancing".

You were not offering an opinion in that post????????????????? I guess calling my question "Red State Logic" is not an opinion?

Now I've answered your questions. Are you going to answer mine?

He doesn't need to entertain me, VN.

You're doing a great job.

Again bugboy, can you answer my question? I want to hear your wonderful wisdom on the subject. Oh (yawn) how I long for thy knowledge.
