eta: better image of the grift button
Yes, I know some here strongly dislike Powell. I'm more of the "let the body be buried/cremated and wait" school. The orange asshole just wants attention and, of course, don't forget the huge DONATE button at the bottom of that message. Can't forget the grift.

The casino-hustling Republican draft dodger especially makes a point of pissing on people who served in the US Military.
Republicans are apparently fine with that. Which reveals a lot.

(1,351 posts)How many similar posts were there on DU yesterday about what a sh*t Colin Powell was?
Yes, I realize a small forum of non-public figures like DU--versus a past President--is different, but very similar sentiment's expressed right here on DU.

(146,262 posts)Like many other powerful people, Colin Powell was not always right. Now he's dead.
It's interesting to see what people have to say about him, for good and bad.
