Saw that this morning. Props to him for calling out their race-baiting.

Stupid victim talk...any individual who is proud would just be the best they can be and not give a fukk who looks down on them...I'm pretty certain regardless of political affiliation well to do white people who don't normally interact with minorities have their reservations about minorities...shyt ain't a political thing just a human nature thing fearing whats different

I'd love to tell Colin Powell to shut the fukk up but he's accomplished way more in his life then i had so ill respectfully disagree

Yea, everyone should already know this. However it is good that he said this on a show like meet the press. The mainstream media acts like these things don't exist.

This is a luxury only white people have. Personally, I don't want to care about what white people think, but in a situation with two groups of people, one of which is a small minority with relatively little power, the large cross-section of the majority group that hates the minorities can and do affect their lives in a very serious way with their beliefs.

:rudy: How is this "victim talk". The only thing he said was that too many people in the GOP look down at minorities. It was a simple statement. Your the perfect example of what is wrong with the GOP. Too many people in your party don't accept facts. I'm not denying that there are racist in the democratic party. I'm an independent so I'm not a big fan of the democrats. But it is a fact that the GOP and the right wing is more hostile to minorities than the democrats and the left. If you don't accept that fact it is useless to debate with you.

Shut the fukk up greaseball. If the people that create policy look down on you you fukking right you'll be concerned. This is just another problem that CACs like you don't have to be concerned about.

Every since he left off, Colin has brought the knives out to the Republicans, he's exposing everything but this isn't news. The elections proved the republicans have a problem with non-white voters. They can't hide it anymore which is one of the most powerful aspects of this elections. Non-Whites voices were heard something heavy.

Nothing new, but great response, I'd vote for Colin, if he were to run for president...

Should be interesting to see Obama handles climate change in the upcoming years, especially the Keystone Pipeline situation....
