Download | Play Download | Play (h/t Heather) On Race to the White House with David Gregory, the punditocracy was all aflutter at Colin Powell s interview with ABC s Good Morning America in which he refrained from endorsing any candidate but made some positive statements about Barack Obama. So naturally, the media decides that the topic should be whether Powell will endorse Obama. Even though he s said he hasn t decided on any one candidate. The Weekly Standard s Matthew Continetti opines: Continetti: It’s possible that Powell will endorse Obama, although I think it’s more likely that he’ll refuse to endorse any candidate. And one reason is that he obviously knows John McCain well and they’ve come together on the torture issue, if you recall. They’re both opponents of aggressive interrogation techniques. So I think it’s more likely that Powell just sits this one out and perhaps awaits for maybe a position in the next Democratic administration. Gregory: Do you think he’d be willing to serve? Continetti: I think so. I think if called under the right circumstances…certainly, from someone like Obama who of course represents a huge milestone historically, but also wants to show he can reach out to Republicans in some fashion, even if they’re disgruntled Republicans, like Gen. Powell. So Powell and McCain have bonded over their mutual stance against torture? Funny, that. None of the talking heads seem particularly concerned that neither Powell nor McCain actually did anything to stop torture when they had the opportunity. And while this notion that Powell is a disgruntled Republican may well be true (I know a lot of Republicans that are disgusted by what the neo-cons have done to their party), where does Continetti get this whole waiting for the next Democratic administration trial balloon? Why should any man who held up cartoon pictures of mobile WMD labs in front of the UN ever have credibility in any administration? Will Bunch thinks that Obama should reject and denounce Powell s endorsement, should it be offered. ]]> Fri, 11 Apr 2008 09:38:44 -0400 Race to the White House: Should Colin Powell Endorse Obama? 10434362 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/draft-colin-powell/10434362/

What is a sellout? Randall Kennedy says all prominent black Americans have at some time or another been called sellouts. Why? What's behind it? What do people give up in order to avoid being called a sellout by their peers? In this lecture at Town Hall Seattle, Kennedy quickly opens the floor up for questions because he says he wants to have a good discussion. He talks about how Barack Obama has been called a sellout by some and he explores the roots behind it. Kennedy's latest book is Sellout: The Politics of Racial Betrayal. He spoke on January 15th, 2008. The talk was sponsored by Town Hall Center for Civic Life with University Book Store. ]]> Fri, 22 Feb 2008 00:05:00 -0500 Randall Kennedy 6603754 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/late-edition-colin-powell-plays-coy-with-his-endorsement-slams-his-former-boss/6603754/

Download | Play Download | Play (h/t Heather) Just like the rest of the Republican talking heads, former Bush Secretary of State Colin Powell isn t willing to stand up behind John McCain just yet. Ever the dutiful soldier, he plays coy with his endorsement, a factoid from which the MSM is all ablaze. Honestly, I don t know why there s such a fuss. Obviously, the Republican slate leaves much to be desired, especially if you acknowledge how much ground has been lost during the Bush years. And THAT is the story that the MSM ignores. Listen how Colin Powell (albeit in a very removed, third person kind of way that doesn t acknowledge the role he played) says how bad things are now, how we ve lost our standing globally, how we ve been dealing with incompetent leadership that doesn t doesn t reflect America s goodness or vision: BLITZER: Who’s your candidate for President of the United States? POWELL: I am watching this race with the greatest of interest and I know all of the leading candidates now. I don’t know Mr. Huckabee as well I know Mr. McCain and senator Obama and uh and Sen. Clinton. But I’m watching this and I will ultimately vote for the person I believe brings to the American people the kind of vision the American people want to see for the next four years. A vision that reaches out to the rest of the world and starts to restore confidence in America. And starts to restore favorable ratings to America, frankly. We’ve lost a lot in recent years. I’m going to be looking for the candidate that seems to me to be leading a party that is fully in sync with the candidate and the party will also reflect America’s goodness and America’s vision. And I’ll be looking for the candidate that I think will be the most competent candidate. The one who can deal with problems and bring the government together with the Congress to solve these problems. And so I know them all. I’m a Republican but I’m keeping my options open at the moment, and I’m in touch with the candidates. And anybody wants to talk to me about an issue, I’ll do so. But sooner or later, as any other American, I will make my choice. I don t know about you, but that doesn t sound like McCain would be his candidate, does it? ]]> Mon, 11 Feb 2008 00:00:00 -0500 Late Edition: Colin Powell Plays Coy With His Endorsement; Slams His Former Boss 6569268 http://www.mefeedia.com/entry/colin-powell-to-endorse-obama/6569268/

From : NOW | PBS
On the third anniversary of former Secretary of State Colin Powell's landmark speech to the United Nations laying out the Bush Administration's case for the Iraq war, a high-level insider who helped write the address makes a startling claim. Powell's then Chief of Staff Lawrence Wilkerson says that what he later found out shocked him: that much of Powell's speech was false. "I participated in a hoax on the American people, the international community, and the United Nations Security Council," he says. NOW reports on the serious doubts that existed about the key evidence being used by the American government at the very time Powell's speech was being planned and delivered. ]]> Fri, 03 Feb 2006 10:00:00 -0500 NOW .
