You know, it’s actually kind of funny. Colin Powell, who was Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under George H.W. Bush and was Secretary of State under dumb George W. Bush never uttered a word about Confederate named military bases when he worked for those warmongers. Yet now, after voting for Obama twice, and hating Trump, Colin Powell suddenly wants to rename all Confederate named military bases in this country. Funny how this was not even an issue in the ’90s or early 2000’s. Powell of course is a media darling after voting for Obama twice.
Traitor Colin Powell – rename Confederate named military bases now! |

Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” former Secretary of State Colin Powell said we need to rename military bases named after Confederate leaders “quickly.”
Powell said, “I would rename the bases. We hadn’t thought about that a few years ago. But now with Black Lives Matter and all the issues that are before us, I think it is a good idea to rename the 10 bases in the United States Army that are named after Confederates. I never really thought about it. I went to Fort Benning, Georgia, named after a Confederate, and I did all my training there, but it never stuck to me that this name should be changed. So I fully support what John Millie is doing. I think it’s something we should do quickly as we can.”
He added, “The Confederate flag is now an explicit demonstration of another time, place and country that has nothing to do with the United States of America, it was the Confederate States of America, they were not part of us, and this is not the time to keep demonstrating who they were and what they were back then. This is time to move on. Let’s get going. We have one flag and only one flag only, and that’s the flag we should all support, and all display and all be proud of.”
