Allen West: I've 'Heard' 80 House Democrats Are Communist Party Members (UPDATE)

This will be red meat to the wacko element of this forum. Should be fun to read their comments. As for West -

 

[Stephanie]

yeah and you have no problems voting for a communist, so what's your beef?

and you calling others wackos...now that's rich..

Allen West is on a great commie hunt?
Reminds me of ohh what was his name that used that ploy to gain political power years ago?

Reagan defended some actors against his charges too.

 

[hjmick]

McCarthy. And I don't mean Charlie...

" Are you now, or have you ever been a member of the Communist Party?"

Nope not going to say that at all, but I know of at least one cornholeio

Nice example of absolutism there btw.

Joe McCarthy would be proud of today's Republicans

Funny how none of the libs here can defend their "progressive" policies, since they are just code word for Marxist/Communist.

All they can do mention McCarthy, as if that somehow defends their Marxist views.

He is referring to the Congressional Progressive Caucus and they are communists.

If you think that then you do not even know what a communist is.
They may be socialists but not communists.
Right wingers support many socialist structures. Virtually all republicans over 65 support SS and Medicare which are very socialist.
Public education dollars? Again socialist.

What is most troubling is that this man was a high ranking military man and he has little or no discipline with his tongue. He is extremely divisive.
He has compared Democrats to the Nazis and favors censoring the media.

I think Mr. West meant to say they are Socialist, which is no secret..

The Democrat party of old is dead and gone and now should be re-named the Socialist Party of the United States.

As many republicans want to be just like Joe.

What he meant to say is not the issue.
The issue is WHAT HE DID SAY.
I hold politicians accountable for what they say.
Please direct me to his press release informing us of his mistake and what he "meant to say".

 

[percysunshine]

Only 80?

hmmmm...

The Republicans ran Joe off.

 

[Dot Com]

Reminds me of when Bachmann (R) wanted the entire House of Reps investigated to ascertain their amount of patriotism

 

[whitehall]

What's with the left's current offensive against a Black republican who served honorably in the Army Airborne? Did Soros say he might be considered for V.P.?
