"I Thought He Was A Democrat!"

That’s what Dick Cheney said when asked why he criticizes former Gen. Colin Powell, and why he was criticizing a “fellow Republican.” Powell endorsed Obama, campaigned for him, and VOTED for him. It’s easy to see why Cheney would think he WAS a Democrat. Like Arlen Specter, he has never BEEN a Republican. He only claimed the label while doing everything a Democrat does. He is NOT “one of the most respected figures in Washington.” Any “respect” he may have had, he has lost. Any he may get today comes entirely from Democrats, and that “respect” means diddly to me. (Just common sense)
