Limbaugh Blasts Colin Powell, Suggests He Should Leave GOP

Dems have sought to turn Rush Limbaugh into the personification of GOP intolerance, mean-spiritedness, and uncompromising conservatism, and Rush’s attack on Colin Powell — delivered moments ago on the air — probably won’t hinder this effort.

Rush hammered Powell as “just another liberal,” reiterated his claim that Powell’s endorsement of Obama was about “race,” and suggested Powell should leave the GOP and just “become another Democrat.”

Rush was responding to some sharp criticism Powell lodged against him Monday. In a speech to corporate executives, Powell claimed that “the Republican Party is in deep trouble” and directly blamed Rush, saying that the talk show host “diminishes the party” and corrupts our public life with “a kind of nastiness that we would be better to do without.”

“I don’t care what Colin Powell says,” Limbaugh responded on the air this afternoon. “This kind of stuff is said about me three times a day … and Colin Powell is just another liberal.”

Limbaugh brought up his earlier claim that Powell’s endorsement of Obama was about race. “He’s just mad at me because I’m the one person in the country who had the guts to explain ,” Limbaugh said. “There can be no other explanation for it.”

Perhaps most tellingly, Limbaugh appeared to call on Powell to leave the Republican Party: “What Colin Powell needs to do is close the loop and become a Democrat.”

The optics of this one are not good: The de facto leader of the GOP (according to Dems and some in the media) is reiterating his claim that a high profile black Republican and decorated military man’s endorsement of the country’s first black president was only about race. And that he should leave the party.

...the gift that keeps on giving. To Democrats.

says is beyond me.

He crossed the line into complete irrelevancy a while ago.

as the face of the Republican Party.

But the hordes of caucasian endorsers of other caucasians is just fine. Is it possible for African americans in this country to tie their shoes without it being racially motivated?

We can't help ourselves, you know... :crazy:

Colin Powell's endorsement of Obama was one thing that almost redeemed him in my eyes. Almost.

Rush says Powell's endorsement of Obama was about race and “there can be no other explanation for it.”

Yet Rush also says Powell is a liberal and he says Obama is a liberal. So according to Rush the only explanation for one liberal endorsing another liberal is race.

yellow belly draft dodging coward, diss a military combat veteran who fought in the war that the puss-butt coward Limpballs avoided. Keep up the good work Dumbaugh.

and I'm sure that Powell has encountered men much tougher than Rush.

Boss Limbaugh=The personification of hypocrisy. Oh and asshattery, too. But then again, if he continues to be the face of the GOP, we will remain in very, very good shape. :evilgrin:

than anyone else!
