There
are some candidates who are fairly standard politicians, who adopt the
'tea party' rhetoric ... and then I think there are some politicians
who are really fundamentally more tea party-ist than politician, and I
think [Republican Rep.-elect Allen] West fits into that category -

The GOP
benefited, but the November election results that shifted the balance of power was more a case of "in spite of," than "because of" the
old guard. What I learned from the 1994 earthquake election (that
gave Republicans a majority in both houses for the first time in 40
years) was there was damned little difference going on in its
aftermath. My view is that our last best chance to save a great nation
depends entirely on the likes of Allen West being successful, and
propagating. It'll be tough, because the old bulls still hold the
committe chairs, and nary a one of them has the right stuff. It's
important then that the Allan Wests have our loud voices behind
them. USA UAS USA!

Heh: I wonder if the RINO's in the house have enough sense to be very afraid when West is on the floor.
ReplyDeleteLooks like he's wearing his Corfams in that photo. Just enough of the old dress uniform to keep his head "real army" straight. And remember, he had to retire for pointing his Beretta at a terrorist to get information to save lives under his command. And some people thinks that's a bad thing. Go figure.
ReplyDeleteLack of experience or no, I'm backing West for POTUS.
ReplyDeleteHe really gets the counterjihad, more than any other candidate.
