Cheney prefers Limbaugh to Powell

SCHIEFFER: So you think that [Colin Powell is] not a Republican?

CHENEY: I just noted he endorsed the Democratic candidate for president this time, Barack Obama. I assumed that that is some indication of his loyalty and his interest.
I know of several liberal Democrats who voted for Ronald Reagan. They're still liberal Democrats. Dick Cheney left office with an 18% "positive" rating. Apparently he's out to lose a few more converts.

I caught that one too.

It shouldn't surprise anyone that someone like Cheney would prefer a drug-addled sexual deviant over an honored military man.

"Colin Powell is just another liberal," Limbaugh retorted. "What Colin Powell needs to do is close the loop and become a Democrat." Limbaugh said Powell is "just mad at me because I'm the one person in the country that had the guts to explain his endorsement of Obama. It was purely and solely based on race."

Somehow I doubt Colin Powell takes Rush Limbaugh seriously enough to get "mad at" him.
