Colin Powell Throws Wet Blanket On Hannity's Obsession With Rev. Wright And Bill Ayers

And it’s awesome. A sample:

”During an interview with Powell on his Fox News show, Hannity said that he finds Obama to be ‘one of the most divisive figures in — that I’ve witnessed in politics today.’

Powell responded: ‘[T]hat’s a term that’s being used rather freely. I don’t think he’s that divisive an issue.’ Powell then asked, ‘What could have been more divisive than, when President Obama was inaugurated, for a number of Republicans, friends of mine, and a number of commentators to say, “We’re going to destroy him. We’re going to destroy him”?’

Hannity replied: ‘I was one of his harshest critics. I wasn’t out to destroy him.’ Hannity also asserted: ‘Well, I was critical about Bill Ayers and Reverend Wright.’ Powell responded: ‘I don’t know Bill Ayers from the man in the moon. Bill Ayers and Reverend Wright are just passing things through [Obama’s] life.’

Hannity then said that Obama spent ‘20 years’ in Wright’s church, to which Powell responded: ‘Well, so?’”

Bravo, sir.
