Why did Mitt choose such a divisive idiot? This is the congressman that said there were 70to80 communist democrats in the house of rep I guess the out of touch leads the out of touch...what a poor choice.

Is this a preview of the kind of cabinet people mitt will choose, epic FAIL!






Allen West, Jennifer Carroll to Lead Charge for Mitt Romney with Black Voters | Sunshine State News

When you look at the results of the mid-terms, it appears that the people agreed with Col. West.
 
Allen West should've been given a speaking spot at the RNC....I would love to see the Liberal meltdown over his remarks lol

Oh and btw Debra.....Allen West is a hero and a role model.

. Yea you really know how to pick em



Congressman Allen West is hands down one of the craziest Tea Party Republicans to ever step foot in Congress. But don't take our word for it. Take a look at some of his craziest and most devisive rhetoric.

West wrote “I must confess, when I see anyone with an Obama 2012 bumper sticker, I recognize them as a threat to the gene pool.”
“I believe there’s about 78 to 81 members of the Democratic party that are members of the Communist Party... (unintelligible) It’s called the Congressional Progressive caucus.*
In June 2012, West said that President Obama wants Americans to “be his slave.” -*“He does not want you to have the self-esteem of getting up and earning and having that title of American. He’d rather you be his slave".*
West said in an interview with ThinkProgress that he would not support a law prohibiting hiring or firing works because of sexual preference because*“that don’t happen out here in the United States of America”. West also said that the issue*was not “a big issue with small businesses.”
West “said ‘liberal progressivism’ has failed all over the world emphasizing his opposition to abortion and gay marriage. ‘If you break down the American family, that leads to government dependency.’”
In regard to Don't Ask Don't Tell, West insinuated that gay military men and women would somehow spawn the death of the military saying “When you take the military and you tell it they must conform to the individual's behavior, then it's just a matter of time until you break down the military."
West believes gays can change their behavior, saying that “I can't change my color. People can change their behavior, but I can't change my color."
“We need to let President Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and my dear friend the chairman of the Democratic National Committee (Debbie Wasserman Schultz), let them know Florida ain’t on the table […]Take your message of economic dependency, take your message of enslaving the entrepreneurial will and spirit of the American people somewhere else. You can take it to Europe, you can take it to the bottom of the sea, you can take it the North Pole, but get the hell out of the United States of America.”*
“If Joseph Goebbels was around, he'd be very proud of the Democrat Party because they have an incredible propaganda machine. I think that you have, and let's be honest, you know, some of the people in the media are complicit in this, in enabling them to get that type of message out."*
"In 1930 there was a gentleman in Germany who took away private gun ownership. And you know what happened to that population. You must be well informed and well armed because this government that we have now is a tyrannical government."*
"Oh come on, I mean you know I was the only black member of a white supremacist motorcycle gang, so liberals and there are certain others I would say even within our party that are not comfortable with strong black conservative voices and I would say there are people that feel very threatened by that because we do stand on principle. We are someone or entities that are out of the mainstream, if you want to call it that so liberals are definitely going to come at you. But I think you also have this inner fight within our primary candidates for that piece of the pie that they want to have."
Allen West recently singled out Social Security Disability benefits as also being a form of "modern, 21st century slavery" saying : "What we're doing is we're creating a welfare entitlement class...So once again we are creating the sense of economic dependence which, to me, is a form of modern, 21st-century Slavery.
 
I'd follow West into Hell carrying gas cans. He's a hero and a great American.

Every quote that you cited makes me like this Allen West guy even more! I thought maybe you had something that would make him look bad?

Thanks for giving me more reasons to support West!
 
And people still wonder about the sanity of the Far Right. Allen West is the perfect representative of the loony right. Anybody who supports Obama is a commie (ahhh, the ghost of Crazy Joe McCarthy!), congress is full of commies!, gay people just need to change their behavior!, no such thing as white supremacists!

Bat **** crazy.

The only thing bat**** crazy here is your post. What does any of it have to do with Allen West's views?

You're just saying that because he's black.
 
I'm disappointed. I thought this thread was going to reveal some dirt on Allen West to make him look bad, but it only makes him look better.
 
Obviously, you are a racist.:roll:

Exactly right! More Left Wing racism.

The reason Libbos are excited about Obama, is because they don't expect much from black folks.
 
The democrat party is the party of racism. History proves it!

You're correct, historically, but these days I don't think either party (Rep or Dem) is any more racist than the other. They're both the same in terms of racism.

Umm, that is totally untrue.
 
Umm, that is totally untrue.

Meh, I don't know, I see an equal amount of racist tendencies from both parties. I can't quantify it, so you may well be correct, I'm just going by what I see.

Neither party is racist.

This is dumb.
