The Bigot Vs. The General: Powell Wins in a Landslide
From CNN
As Colin Powell fires back against Dick Cheney and Rush Limbaugh in the latest skirmish in the battle over the future of the Republican Party, a new national poll indicates that Americans have a much more favorable opinion of Powell than Cheney or Limbaugh.
The CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey, released Monday, suggests that 70 percent have a favorable opinion of Powell, who was Secretary of State during President George W. Bush’s first term, and who served as Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff during the Persian Gulf War.
Only 30 percent of those polled have a favorable view of Limbaugh, the popular conservative radio talk show host, with 53 percent saying they hold an unfavorable opinion.
In poll numbers released Thursday, 37 percent say they have a favorable opinion of Dick Cheney, with 55 percent indicating they hold an unfavorable view of the former vice president.

I never hated on Gen. Powell I am an Army Vet. I respect him a lot. Rush Limbaugh is a damn junkie… So why give him the time or day? Dick Cheney had 8 years to come out and clear shh up, why come out now when Obama is in office? Oh yea thats right you and Bush did something DIRTY while in office and Obama is going to find out. Have fun in prison Cheney!!
no nobody thought he was a house nigga, if they did they were probably misinformed like you. even when he was a general and served as sec/state he had intelligent independent ideas that didnt always serve bush and republicans interests. u sound ignorant and condescending
isn’t funny now the negroes have sided with Collin Powell. But when he was serving Bush and the Republicans ya’ll niggas called him an sell out an Uncle Tom, House Nigga. Look how quick the negro people change sides.
Not a surprise there.
