Bill O'Reilly Confronts Colin Powell in Interview on Obama and GOP's Racial Politics - 1/29/13

1/29/13 - General Colin Powell has been very critical of the Republican party in recent years, and tonight he appeared on Bill O'Reilly's show to defend his criticisms of the GOP. O'Reilly grilled Powell on why he continues to support President Obama despite the bad economic numbers and made him defend his claim that the Republican party has a problem with minorities. O'Reilly also brought up a criticism that Powell is just bitter with the party because they made him look bad following his 2003 speech before the United Nations on weapons of mass destruction in Iraq. Powell explained to O'Reilly that he was put off in 2008 and 2012 by the economic plans proposed by the Republican campaigns. He cited his long history of voting for Republicans and working for Republican presidents to assure O'Reilly of his credentials, before saying that he is "troubled" by the rightward shift of the party and decided Obama was the "best choice" for the presidency. O'Reilly pointed out that the economy under Obama has not been particularly kind to African-Americans. Powell said that overall the economy has improved, though he acknowledged it was not enough. He criticized the Republican party for not recognizing "fundamental demographic changes" happening in the country, suggesting that if they want to endear themselves to minorities, they cannot keep pushing for immigration and voter ID laws that adversely affect minority groups. O'Reilly pushed Powell on that last point, asking him what objection he has to voter identification. Powell said he opposes "additional levels" of ID that would disenfranchise many people, while disputing the idea that voter fraud is a widespread problem. In the second part of the interview, O'Reilly more directly took on Powell over his claim that parts of the Republican party "still look down on minorities." O'Reilly highlighted Powell's criticisms of John Sununu and Sarah Palin for, respectively, calling Obama "lazy" and criticizing his "shuck and jive" on Benghazi. Powell clarified that he does not believe Sununu and Palin and racists, but said they used language in a context that would seem racially charged to minorities, calling their remarks two examples of a more widespread "vein of intolerance" in the party. O'Reilly wrapped the interview by asking Powell a "rude question": there is some talk amongst Republicans that Powell just resents the GOP because they "made you look bad" following his testimony on WMDs in Iraq. Powell dismissed it as "a bunch of nonsense."

Will America Descend into Civil War?
In an anarcho-capitalist society there is income disparity, class structures, markets, private dictatorship etc. In an Anarchist society there is perfect equality, and therefore perfect liberty; everything is freely available to everyone; there is direct democracy etc.

PROPHETIC WORD at The Presidential Inaugural Prayer Breakfast..

What a timely word for this great nation! We're down to the nitty gritty Americans. Will we choose life through repentance and turn back to God or will stay on the dark path to judgement and death! " The world is steeped in deception and do not, nay, will not, see for they are blind! Beware ye Americans that you have ears that hear and eyes that see!! Television, magazines, internet, school teachings, books, and many offices of government have become vessels of sin and are filling souls with darkness. These are the modern Baals of idolatry in this nation. God will not compromise his love. We either choose God... or the dark idols of this world. Choose God. Resist the devils and they will flee.
