Daily Kos And Other Lefties Will No Longer Call Powell 'Uncle Tom'

by Kerry Picket - October 20th, 2008 - Newsbusters

When a black republican like General Colin Powell endorses a major liberal figure like Barack Obama, it is amazing to see racial vitriol stop at a lefty website like Daily Kos:

Powell didn't just decimate the McCain campaign rationale, however. Powell also offered up an endorsement of Barack Obama in the strongest possible terms, saying that Obama would be an "exceptional president" and that he had the capacity to be "transformational."

How sweet of Daily Kos. Back in April of 2004 Daily Kos's love did not extend at all for General Powell. In fact, it was downright nasty:

Uncle Tom Powell Stumps for Massah Bush

Yes suh! Yes suh! Right away suh!

Mr. Powell sir, you are a liar and an apologist for a crooked regime known as the George W. Bush administration.

Something of a different tone. Then again that is exactly what the left wing Marxists always do. The rules for them are always different than the rules for their opponents. The savage vitriol against Sarah Palin and John McCain is ignored while true statements about Barack Obama are labelled as "outrageous lies" and "personal smears".

The reality is that the global socialist movement is anti-American and has practiced a stealth invasion for 40 years. Unfortunately too many Americans have become anti-American themselves after 40 years of brain-washing in our public schools, the first target of this stealth.
