And your moral authority to tell a black man not to openly express an opinion on racism in America is???

Did I tell a black man not to openly express an opinion on racism in America?
Are only black men allowed to express an opinion about racism in America?

My comment was a condemnation of the moral authority of a man who aided and abetted the needless and brutal attack on Iraq. Bush, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Wolfowitz, Condie Rice, Colin Powell . .. .they all have blood on their hands . . . Iraqi blood and American/British blood. Only the war on Vietnam was a greater horror than what this group of killers concocted with their lies. Why should we forget and forgive so quickly? Why would anyone give any of them a public platform? The have no honor.

Perhaps you simply cannot handle the thought that Colin Powell is no longer a hero and his skin color does not give him absolution from the terrible war he conspired to pursue.

You asked where is my moral authority. My moral authority is based in the outrage of what Powell and his band of killers led us into in Iraq. My moral authority is based on the outrage that anyone would forget his complicity. Like it never happened. We never lost 4287 troops in Iraq. Or 30,182 wounded. And Colin Powell gets a pass? That is an outrage. Your playing the racism card is bullshit.
