Colin Powell is a great man. He was on Morning Joe this morning talking about various things…the following exchange took place during their discussion: Joe Scarborough: Following up on the question, what we’ve learned over the past 10, 11, years, are you concerned with the foreign policy advisers mitt romney surrounded himself with? there aren’t enough sergeants and not enough people with experience on the ground and we seem to have another republicanen candidate who’s sort of top heavy when it comes to the – Colin Powell: I noticed that. I don’t know who all of his advisers are. I’ve seen some of the names and some are quite far to the right and sometimes they, I think, might be in a position to make judgments or recommendations to the candidate that should get a second thought. For example, when Governor Romney not too long ago said the Russian Federation is our number one strategic threat. K well, come on Mitt. That isn’t the case. I don’t know whether Mitt really feels that — I don’t know. You ask him. I mean, it’s been catching a lot of heck from these — the more regular GOP foreign affairs community. we’ve kind of taken aback by it. Look at the world. There’s no pure competitor to the United States of America. You know, all of the problems we talk about, Afghanistan, Iraq, Iran, you name them all, 700 million, 800 million, 7 billion. What are the rest of them doing? Increasing economies, building wealth, educating their kids, building an infrastructure. That’s what we need to be doing. You can watch the full video HERE. This is the video of Mitt Romney’s position that Colin Powell is referring to. This is Mitt Romney trying to be TOUGH versus the Soviet Union….only they broke up in 1991. Even George W. Bush tried to partner with the Russians. The Cold War is over. _______________________________________________ Marxism-Thaxis mailing list Marxism-Thaxis@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu To change your options or unsubscribe go to: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/listinfo/marxism-thaxis
