Dick Cheney Says Colin Powell is Not a Republican
Former Vice President Dick Cheney took an extraordinary public swipe at Colin Powell Sunday, questioning in a TV interview whether the former Bush administration secretary of state was even a Republican anymore.
Cheney, appearing on CBS’s Face the Nation, said he was taking the side of Rush Limbaugh over Powell in the ongoing dispute in the GOP between the conservative talk show host and moderate retired general.
"Well if I had to choose in terms of being a Republican, I’d go with Rush Limbaugh," Cheney told moderator Bob Schieffer. "My take on it was Colin had already left the party — I didn’t know he was still a Republican."
A somewhat taken-aback Schieffer asked: "You think he’s not a Republican?"

Look at everything that Gen. Colin Powell actually is and it’s crystal clear that he does not believe in the same root values as some in the GOP. If they want to purge their party of American heroes, then whatever they want…I want. Welcome to the Democrats Colin Powell. Will you be an “Obamacan?”
