Colin Powell = racist. John Sununu = patriot?

All-but-openly racist Mitt Romney surrogate John Sununu today suggested—after a rant about how President Obama's first term has been a disaster—decided to call Colin Powell an N-word-lover. Or at least come as close as possible:

"Frankly, when you take a look at Colin Powell, you have to wonder whether that's an endorsement based on issues or whether he's got a slightly different reason for preferring President Obama."

Er, frankly, when you take a look at the first 232 years of the American presidency and you take a look at the racial makeup of the men who won and you take a look at the racial makeup of the voting public, you have to wonder whether you're a fucking racist, Mr. Sununu.

The right loves when black people are Republican warmongers, as Powell has been. But in spite of Powell's Republicanism and all the water he carried for George W. Bush back in the day, he's now reduced to just a black guy voting for the black guy—any black guy.

Sununu is a co-chair of Romney's campaign.
