Allen West: Tired of Obama’s ‘Marxist Rhetoric’

LTC. West, in my opinion in 2003 displayed a commander more loyal to those under his command rather than those he was sent there to fight. His desire to protect and defend those under his command, was admirable and while it did violate Articles under the UCMJ, it did not reflect badly upon him as a leader in the eye's of those he commanded and obviously to those who elected him in the state of FL. His point on the President was that of a man who for most of his life knows no grey area's and bascially speaks his mind. While the Presidents speech in my opinion was limited in scope as to real solutions to our current debt mess and lacked any clear way out it was a little less than Presidential to ask the author of the bill you happen to disagree with to attend your speech and then spend a lot of time talking badly about it. While I don't agree with Chairman Ryan's methods when it comes to Medicare, because it reminds me too much of the Kerr-Mills bill of the 1960's and under that system healthcare quality for seniors was a disaster, I do agree that Medicare can be reformed and needs to be and rather than spending time about how badly one's bill is, perhaps the nation would have been better served if the President would have sought out some common ground. LTC West again, was in my opinion voicing his frustration as a long time military man at the lack of leadership which I believe is lacking not just in the White House , but in Washington DC in general.

Florida GOP Rep. Allen West says he stands by his statement that President Barack Obama exhibited “Third World dictator-like arrogance” in his speech last week on the budget and America’s skyrocketing debt, and he is sick and tired of the president’s “Marxist demagogic rhetoric.”


“I do stand by those words — and perhaps one of the things that many people need to understand is that the truth needs to be said,” West Thursday said on Fox News, referring to a comment he made Tuesday on Laura Ingraham’s radio show. “When I go around and I talk to people down here in my district, and we get phone calls, that speech that was given last week Wednesday was absolutely beneath the statesmanship, or the atmosphere, or the aura of the personality that the president should show.

“I am sick and tired of this class warfare — this Marxist demagogic rhetoric that is coming from the president of the United States of America,” he told Greta Van Susteren. “It is not helpful for this country, and it’s not going to move the ball forward as far as rectifying the economic situation in our country — and I’m not going to back away from telling what the truth is.”

West said it is time to “stop playing games” when it comes to discussing America’s deteriorating fiscal situation.

“I don't think it's very presidential when Barack Hussein Obama refers to my colleague, [House Budget Committee Chairman] Paul Ryan, as a simple little accountant, either,” he said. “So I think that when you look at what a community organizer [Obama] is turning out to be, it does seem to be like a low-level socialist agitator.


Allen West: Tired of Obama

I was extremely disappointed that he has no plans to run for President, From the outset he appears to be the type of leadership our nation desperately need's right now something that is lacking entirely with the current administration.
 
i love rightwingnut idiots who think that pointing out what their policies do is class warfare.

the obama derangement syndrome is strong on this thread.

i'd highly, highly recommend you pursue some actual study on socialism and what it is.

hint: it isn't every politician you disagree with. :cuckoo:

You're a wise dude, Navy. :clap2:
 
West has Obama's number in one respect. He understands that the sum total of Obama's economic experience and know-how would not qualify Obie to run a lemonade stand.
 
He gets my vote.

Allen West speaks as if everyone gives a damn about what he says when no one really gives a damn about him acting like a dramaqueen. All he has done is rant and spew big talk, typical of braindead military officers.

Speaking of ranting and spewing big talk and drama queens, how have you been Charlie?

Exactly!
All we learned today, is Allan West doesn't know what Marxism is.
 
Someone said the other day about a Herman Cain/ Allen West ticket.

I'm thinking I like it more every day.

I've been good, and I'm not one to rant, nor do I have constituents to please, that Islamophobic retard Allen West does, he's a disgrace to the officer corps and one of the worst ever, its shameful that an idiot like him was ever in charge of troops.
 
omg, Islamophobic.

Admit it, you just don't like him because he is....................................BLACK:lol:

I see slogans without content. The only referenced verbiage is his "little accountant" reference, with no surrounding context, derogatory only with the inclusion of the word 'little'.

.

BTW, when has the market ever been free? There have always been rules, restrictions and taxes associated with trade, probably from pre-history but certainly from recorded history. Why do you resist rewriting rules that have shown themselves to be ineffective or have outright failed? Your use of the term 'socialism' or 'socialist' doesn't scare me from the discussion either. I accept that there have always been, and always will be the need for some social programs and that makes me pragmatic, not necessarily socialist.
