You mean the same Colin Powell who said the following regarding illegal immigrants on "Meet the Press" Sunday ?

"They're all over my house, doing things whenever I call for repairs, and I'm sure you've seen them at your house. We've got to find a way to bring these people out of the darkness and give them some kind of status."

Since then he has tried to backtrack and claimed he was just talking about legal immigrants. Most people in this country are legal immigrants or ancestors of such so why would he even mention that ?

I remember not too long ago (before he endorsed Obama) that Colin Powell was not described this way by the left. Remember, he was Cheney's sidekick.
