Colin v. Dick and Tom v. Rush and Rush v. Colin and Colin v. Rush and......



I can't tell you how much I have been enjoying this in-party fighting between the repubs for the soul (And I use that word loosely. Republicans have no souls) of their party. In one corner is the two tons of evil, also known as Rush & Dick. And in the other corner, the voices of moderation and reason, also known as Colin & Tom. (On this Memorial Day it's important to note that both Tom and Colin served their country honorably in war and Dick and Rush did not. Just thought I would throw that out there) Dick started it all when he lashed out at Colin and declared that he didn't even think that he[Colin] was a republican anymore. Then Tom said that Dick was in essence lying when he said that the country is less safe under Obama. And then Rush agreed with Dick, and Tom agreed with Colin and.....oh lawd this is all too much, but you get the idea.

“Rush will not get his wish and Mr. Cheney was misinformed – I am still a Republican..,”“Neither [Cheney] nor Rush Limbaugh are members of the membership committee of the Republican Party...”

Yu tell dem yawdie! That's what I like to see; that good old Jamaican fighting spirit coming out of you. You must be drinking plenty Irish Moss and Linseed these days. But wait, Tom Ridge wants to jump in here as well:

“I think Rush articulates his point of view in ways that offend very many...”

That's what I am talking about; two military guys fighting for their party on Memorial Day. Way to go boys. I am pretty sure that most A-merry-cans have your back. Most. Unfortunately there are still some among us who would put party over country. We call them "wingnuts", and there are plenty of them.

Now as a person of color I always listen for the African American voices in these debates. So where are the conservative or republican, African Americans? Why so silent on this issue? Whose side are you folks going to come down on? Inquiring minds want to know. I know that a few of you like to come out to the fields from time to time, so can you tell us please? We are trying to understand the debate and I am sure that you all will be able to help us out a little.

"I don't want to pick a fight with Dick Cheney, but the fact is, the Republican party has to be a broad party that appeals across the country..."

Fight Colin fight. The field Negroes have your back. Even if the Negroes in your own party do not.

    thank you field, it's good to see COLIN POWELL step up, he can say what the president would like to say, so POWELL has come forth and challenged rush and cheney, and he doe's it with class, you can count the time's he crack's a smile, I looked up his BIO and I had to stop reading at a certain point, this man has so many award's until it will make your head swim, read his BIO when you have time.

  2. I think I disagree with you in that I've seen a number of Black conservative house negroes on CNN and Fox, including the head house negro in charge, Michael Steele. Of course they aren't defending Powell and they won't as long as it makes Limbaugh and the dark lord of the sith angry. Their melanin makes their conservative credentials shakey, so they can't come out against the real bosses of the party.

    peace,

    I can't say that I really dislike Colin Powel, but I daisagree with him sometimes.And sometimes it turns out that he was more correct than me. It's too bad there's not more people like TJ Watts. And Field, don't stress too much about the Rebub's soul, in 18 months we see.

    After sending wreaths to memorials for Confederate soldiers is Obama a house negro or is that something field negros do??

    Colin is nothing but back ground noise to most Republicans inculding myself.He had his shot in 1995 but he blew it.

    Colin voted for this this nation's first trillion dollar deficit,higher taxes,and a over all empty suit.That can never be forgiven.

    Tom?? Who dat???

    Cheney and Rush are true Americans who don't pal around with terrorist and they don't hate America.

    Speaking of no soul i see Obama is outsourcing kidnapping,harsh interrogations,and torture to Middle East regimes.Change we can believe in!!!

    Brother Field.. Memorial Day is truly a time for honoring the fallen combatants. This day touch each in a different way. I know your family's loss makes this day more heartfelt now. My prayers and thanks to the family. Having been a medic in war, this day always brought feelings of not having done enough, being a survivor. Its getting better, there is Veterans Day, //// Tom and Brother Colin have had the opportunity to live(in military) with others at "gut level" lending tbe abilty to have compassion for people. Not a trait I see in Rush and Trick.

  14. Fact is. General Powell is the only person the Repugs got who has anything approximating presidential stature. & he's not uncritical of the Obama administration, but he knows better than to try make it look weak to the rest of world. The man's so patriotic to the core he probably salutes the flag when he gets out of bed in the morning, like he did every day he was in the Army.

    ReplyDelete
  15. Colin Powell is running for president.

    Perhaps not in 2012. Perhaps not until Obama leaves the presidential stage.

    But he is running.

    He knows that the Republican base as it is now constituted can barely get a dogcatcher elected.

    He knows that all the emphasis on "conservative principles" is narrowing the base more.

    He knows that all the current attacks on Obama is causing some defections within the ranks.

    He knows that the likes of Rush Limbaugh, and Dick Cheney have distorted the party's message and are alienating a large number of potential voters.

    He knows that the party, as it is currently constituted, is not so much inclusive as it is exclusive.

    He knows that to be elected president, party appeal has to cut a broad swath across a large part of the country, not just south of the Mason-Dixon line.

    He knows that Americans have shown a willingness to overlook race when it comes to the selection and election of a president.

    He knows that Obama managed it without being assassinated, and by appealing to all Americans, regardless of their party affiliation, whether they were from blue states or red states, whether they were black or white, and whether they were liberal or conservative.

    He knows that if the party is to survive, extremism must be tempered, "conservative principles" must be accommodating, and the priorities of the American people elevated above the priorities of the party.

    He knows that the only way he'll win later, he has to get into the fray now.

    If he waits the party will shrink into oblivion, if not irrelevancy.

    Rush Limbaugh will still be rich. Dick Cheney will still be trying to salvage the reputation of his shadow presidency, and all the policies that he instituted using Bush as his puppet and signatory.

  21. @szpork: "Colin is definately not running for prez. It's mostly because of his wife, she wouldn't like the attention."Perhaps, but Colin, himself, offers other reasons:

    "I never woke up a single morning to go think about this [running for president], to talk to people about it and find in my heart and soul the passion that a Barack Obama or a John McCain or a George Bush or a Bill Clinton had," he said. "It just wasn't me, and you've got to be true to yourself, and I've tried to be true to myself."At one point his wife's concerns for his safety was given as the reason:

    "His wife, Alma, had feared that such an endeavor would change their family life. She also had concerns about Powell's safety, he said Wednesday on CNN's 'American Morning.'"

    "But I was a soldier. That wasn't my concern," he said. "I never found inside of me the internal passion that you've got to have to run for elected office."I believe that the fire has been ignited in his belly, and he now see his role as the one to resurrect the party, or to keep it from declining further into the abyss.

He will also jump ship with the Democrats.

  26. Why Cheney still talking? And why do people listen?

    He helped run the party into the ground.

    I'm curious about African American Conservatives. Not every Republican is a Conservative (well before the far right took over the party anyway.)

    What exactly is it that they would like to conserve? Do they feel included in the party? I watched the GOP convention and it made me very uncomfortable.

    Is it just me or is Michael Steele looking and sounding more buffoonish with each passing day?

    I understand where you're coming from, Hator. I agree. I don't think Powell is up to the rigors of the office.

    He's stated that on several occasions.

    I think that he sees his role, if he does decide to run, as someone who will infuse more life into the party, someone who will expand its base.

    However, I don't think that he'll be a serious candidate, and would probably drop out of the race at some pivotal moment.

    Although I made my assertion without wiggle room, I did it to spark the conversation that we're now having.

    Flat-out assertions have a way of doing that.

  38. When Bush and Cheney were in office, Bush stayed on vacation the majority of the time and gave Cheney too much free rein. Don't forget that Bush didn't actually pick Cheney to be his VP, Cheney picked his self.

    Bush might not have been a good President but one thing I can give him credit for is that he believes in loyalty. The sad part is that his loyalty to his staff even included an undeserving Cheney and Rumsfield. I believe that when it is all said and done Cheney was Bush's downfall, and where he errored at was he knew what Cheney did and was doing.

    Notice that their not on speaking terms,and I don't think it was just because Bush didn't give what's his name clemency either. I believe it goes deeper than that. What's in the dark is going to come to the light, I don't care how much Cheney and Rush run their polluted mouth.

    Both Cheney and Rush are bad news for the GOP party and if they haven't figured that out, well it's suicidal to stay on a sinking ship. Speaking for myself, I say let the ship sink, because it is not of any good use to America as a whole anyway. This is a nation of people, not a nation for a selective few.

    Frank:

    Thanks but no thanks, the democrats are not in need of any tainted blood. They need some new fresh blood, but that is new blood with new ideas that welcome diversity, not those old ancient ones that cause division and hatred.

    What better way to do that than to fight on America's behalf?

    No, Cheney doesn't "pal around with terrorist" except to torture the hell out of them, with Rush's approval.

    No, they don't "hate" America, they just want to use her to attack countries that haven't attacked us, under the pretext of protecting the country.

    No, they don't "hate" America, they just want to give war profiteers and Halliburton billions from our national treasury.

    No, they don't "hate" America, they just want to divide her, and scare her, so that their party remains this nation's strongest party.

    No, they don't "hate" America, they just want to make sure that any benefits she enjoys come at their behest, not liberals.

    Yes, America needs more "true Americans" like Cheney and Rush who don't "pal around with terrorists," and who don't "hate America."

    Sickandfed:

    "If this was true, why do Rush and Cheney scare the HELL out of FN and the rest of the left?"

    Sickandfed, I don't know who convinced you of that but they lied to you. Most of us think that Rush and Cheney are hilarious and stupid to boot. Even an illiterate criminal knows how to keep their mouth shut when they've committed something illegal. However, your boy Cheney is the gift that keeps on giving in that respect. I'm not even an Attorney and it would be a piece of cake for even me to get him convicted thanks to his big mouth.

    Oh, please don't even get me started on Rush the dope addict. Rush is viewed by many as the great white buffoon and is not worth two dead flies. Anyone who listens to him and takes him serious is seriously in need of an education and some common sense because they are lacking in both and make someone who is mentally challenged look like Einstein. Nah, I take that back because that would be insulting the mentally challenged and they are way more on the ball in the brain department than Rush is and they have a lovable spirit.

    "I mean,if we[Republicans,Rush,Cheney] were fading away and becoming extinct than why not let us fade into the night??"

    Well, to be honest with you, you guys are fading away and becoming extinct. Nevertheless, while you're still around, nothing wrong with us getting a few good laughs off of you before you disappear. I mean, if I have to say so myself, sometimes you guys beat watching Saturday Night Live, Jon Stewart, Bill Mahers, and Comedy hour, etc., because we get a laugh a second at how DUMB, FOOLISH, and RIDICULOUS your party is.

    "Why does the left get their panties in a bunch everytime Rush or Cheney speaks?"

    You really need to leave whatever your on alone, so that you can contribute something logical and rational to the conversation. Oh, I forgot you listen to Rush so it can't be helped. Why don't you try weaning yourself off of Rush it might help.

    "What are you scared of??
    Could it be the latest Gallup Polling that shows Republicans are tied with Democrats in party identification?"

    Identification only means that they associate with the views of their party. It has nothing to do with popularity. Jesus! You know Sickandfed, I truly understand now why your a Republican. It's so obvious because you identify with their main characteristics and that's sad.

    @sick freak: "I guess the true Americans are paling around with people who call our military 'nazis,baby killers,terrorist,and other names the left love to use.'".

    You used those terms and descriptions. I didn't. And I haven't heard anyone who's remotely influential on the left using those names.

    Where do you hang out?

    "And Obama is still attacking the same countries today."

    You're good at getting your facts screwed up.

    Obama hasn't attacked anyone. Is he still pursuing policies to keep Iraqis, and Iraq safe after we "broke it"?

    You bet. It's the only sane and just thing to do, as we gear up to leave, and to put Iraq's safety back into the hands of Iraqis.

    Had Bush not attacked Saddam Hussein all of this would be mute.

    Is Obama still chasing the Taliban who's dead set on toppling the newly-formed Afghanistan government?

    You bet. It's the only sane and just thing to do: We "broke it." Now, it's incumbent upon us not only to fix it, but to keep it fixed.

    Just for you 'sick freak,' a recent history lesson: Bush attacked both Iraq and Afghanistan, not Obama.

    It now falls to him to make the best of the mess that 'W' created. It's the sane and just thing to do.

    "Obama's way of is outsourcing and torture to Middle East regimes is much better."

    You mean the way that Bush did? Can you back up this statement using a credible source? Or are you just making it up as you go along?

    Just for the record: anonymous sources aren't valid sources. It's too easy for the other side to make up stuff, you know, the way you do.

    "The same war profiteers[that got Obama elected] and Halliburton that Obama is giving money to?"

    I was under the impression that the American people "got Obama elected."

    Again, it's not easy to change horses in mid-race while sprinting to the finish line.

    To change suppliers at this point would not only disrupt the flow of goods and services to our troops (even though it supports ill-gotten gain put in place by the previous administration) as it would be to pick up and leave Iraq tomorrow.

    It's not feasible, given our stated goals of pulling back, and out, in a manner that protects Iraqis and our troops.

    Again, Bush and Cheney brought together a devil-spawned union of money, power, and necessity that can't be untangled without causing deaths, and injuries, both to Iraqis and our troops.

    Fixing this mess will be added to Bush and Cheney's historical account, not to Obama's, despite Repub's wishing and hoping to stain his administration with the pile of 'shit' that Bush and Cheney left him to clean up.

    "But America can take record unemployment,historical deficits,and all of Obama's lies?"

    Obama lied? Now that's a news flash. Bush lied about WMDs, the cost of the Iraq war, the connection of Iraq to Al-Qaeda, and too many others to list here, and you call Obama a liar?

    Again, get your facts straight: this recession started on Bush's watch, not Obama's.

    And, I'll assure you: If the government (the spender of last resort), doesn't spend our way out of this mess, it will turn into a depression, and a depression will depress our economy for the remainder of this century.

    We have a choice: spend our way out, or take the supposed market forces route, which will assure our economic demise, or cripple our economy indefinitely.

    Were you to see the outcome of that, you'd hock this generation's future, and the next two, to prevent it.

    What we've come to call the "American Dream," will become a "National Nightmare."

    And we have all those greedy bastards on wall street (probably Republicans all) to thank, what with their credit default swaps, and deadly derivatives, which congress permitted by lifting the safeguards that had been in placed since just after the Great Depression to prevent the very thing that has been visited upon us during the last decade.

    You know, black republicans aren't all that different from the type of black people I like to refer to as "The ones who forgot"

    We all know them, they're the ones who are black but either forgot or were never told. And honestly, I don't mind them. What I mind is when they go out of their way to make sure all the white folks know they don't really identify as black by putting all the black folks down.

    Black republicans MUST remind all other republicans that they ARE conservative, they DO deserve their support, their voices DO matter... and how do they do that? They rail on us "ignorant black folks who've allowed the white racist liberal media to brainwash us"

    So they'll come out on Rush's side... because he's as RIGHT CRAZY ASS WING NUT as you can get, and what better way to prove you're down than by being extreme.

    Oh, and I shouldn't only pick on "The ones who forgot" I should also point a finger at those of us who adopt awkward dialects and wear ill-fitting clothing and gaudy jewelry, pushing cars we can't afford and running up our credit to buy a bar ALL in the name of proving how black we are.

    ASmith is an equal-opportunity finger pointer.
