I ♥ Colin Powell

October 21st, 2008 | Filed under Blog, Politics

Regardless of your political or religious affiliations the following line was the most important thing about Colin Powell’s announcement this weekend.

“Well, the correct answer is, ‘He’s not a Muslim, he’s a Christian, he’s always been a Christian.’ But the really right answer is, ‘What if he is? Is there something wrong with being a Muslim in this country?” -FMR Sec. of State Gen. Colin Powell

As Teressa and I enjoyed out Sunday coffee and political-talk-shows, we both cheered when Powell made that very simple comment. I was planning on a big rant about this, but for now I point you to my favorite news source. The NPR.

    Here, here! I was so excited to be standing in line this morning — there’s such a diverse group in my polling place! — and everyone was cheerful and joking with each other. Yes, even the woman in the hijab.
    On top of that, my polling place is a barn!! How sweet is Ann Arbor?

    I’m jealous, ours is across the street in a public school that looks a LOT like Morgan on the inside. However, there were no lines and we were in and out in under 10 minutes!
