15 Aug 2014: Allen West: "Barack Hussein Obama is an Islamist"

[Ibentoken]

[quovte=PaintMyHouse;9633800]Yeah, it takes a very brave man to threaten to kill and then fire a gun next to the ear of a fully-restrained and guarded POW. My Captain, My Hero...

I don't think he was trying to demonstrate bravery with that tactic.

I think he was trying to influence an enemy captive.

My hero, Col. West, probably succeeded.

Raping the POW's ten-year-old daughter would have produced the same results. "Influence" like that, I can do without, thanks all the same...[/QUOTE]

Raping children is those you protect abd serve do. How noble.

Allen West is a patriot. You're the ******.

Even Benedict Arnold is considered a patriot...as far as the British are concerned.

The question about West, like anyone else who makes a huge claim to be an uber-patriot, is where do his loyalties truly lie.

Okay. Tell us where you believe his loyalties lie and why.

How would I know? However, I can't help but notice that his over-the-top rhetorical pronouncements appear to have a very definite self-serving aspect to them since they appeal to a very select group of people who simply eat it up when he says those things and then fawn over him quite adoringly. It wouldn't take long for any person to see the adoration as a direct result of the rhetoric in much the way that the early Beatles knew that that they could get the girls to scream when they shook their head while whooping it up on stage. Cause and effect.

The point is that quite a few RW media heroes on the airwaves have made a pretty good career (and living) by being rhetorically provocative, again, in much the same way that rock 'n' roll stars got a lot of press for trashing hotel rooms, and throwing wild parties which very much appealed to a certain demographic. Sometimes with some of these 80's hair bands, the music was secondary to the lifestyle and how loud and in your face their attitude was. I don't really see much difference here. What I have witnessed over time is that there seems to come a point when what was once a little shocking, seems almost tame. Then there seems to be a need to amp it up (both for the rockers and the RW talkers). That's even more true when there's so many people competing for attention. How do you get more attention? The answer is to be even more outrageous than the next guy. That's what it seems to me that West is doing.

That's obvious, with himself.

That's probably a pretty safe bet.

Do you REALLY place more trust on the talking points of your lying media sources than your own judgment and the help of two eyes, two ears and half a brain?

I ask you that because it's obvious to all but you that your take on Allen West is terribly off.

He is NOTHING like you paint him to be.



And everyone who watches these videos of him can see how misinformed your smears are.

So, it must be that even in the face of overwhelming proof that the talking points you are being fed (by ???) are a pile of cow manure, you are going to stick with that rather than proceed based on your own take of him.

You are a sap.

Okay. Tell everyone why I admire West.

Your critique reads as if it were written by someone unfamiliar with the topic but trying to apply to this new face a mental caricature or characterization because that's what the Dems have found the voters respond to.

Col. West is smarter than your critique of him.

I certainly think he's smart enough to see which side of the bread has the butter on it like plenty of people before him who have used free PR from provocative comments to parlay their newly found fame into a higher paying gig. I could make a list, but I'm pressed for time. But it's not as if the names don't easily come to mind.

If you watch this video and still believe as you say you do, then I will know all I need to know about you.

Notice how none of the lefties have the integrity to rebuke Lakhota's outwardly racist cartoon of Allen West?

Quick question...............can you defend the Obamabucks that show watermelons growing in the White House lawn?

Can you defend the poster that shows Obama as a witch doctor when he talks about the ACA?

Face it........................you are all a bunch of bigots bordering on racist assholes.

Hey, Mr. Distraction and Diversion, I'm talking about the racist cartoon that was posted on this thread by one of your own, not some cartoon somewhere on the internet that wasn't posted in this thread. Do you condemn it or not? Yes or no.

why would you care if its racist? You are a racist. I mean besides the point of you are just trying for a weak angle here that you really dont believe in

15 Aug 2014: Allen West: "Barack Hussein Obama is an Islamist"

Friday, 15 Aug 2014 10:02 AM
By Melanie Batley

President Barack Obama is an Islamist who is intentionally working against the security of the United States, said former Florida Rep. Allen West.

"The only plausible explanation for many actions taken by President Obama and his administration is that they are working counter to the security of the United States of America," the retired U.S. Army lieutenant colonel wrote in a post on his website on Wednesday.

West cited the president's decision to release five senior Taliban members in the exchange for Sgt. Bowe Bergdahl; supplying weapons to support the Egyptian government led by the Muslim Brotherhood; and negotiating with Hamas.

He also criticized Obama's decision to suspend a ban on Libyans attending U.S. flight schools and studying nuclear science, which had been in place since 1983.

"Can anyone explain what the strategy and objective is here in lifting this ban with a nation that is or should be on the terrorist watch list?" West wrote.

"Sorry, but I can only explain this one way: Barack Hussein Obama is an Islamist in his foreign policy perspectives and supports their cause."

He added, "The pivot away from the Middle East seems to be nothing more than an opportunity to enable Islamists and their goals. Anyone supporting this Libyan ban being lifted is indeed an enemy of this state."

Allen West: Obama Is an Islamist

Col. West is no extremist or RW kook.

Who was he talking about? Is he chicken to name names? He made the accusation.

Okay. Tell everyone why I admire West.

Because he has the same kind of paranoia as you do, the same fear of liberalism, the same twisted views of the America as blessed by God etc,, the same corrupted view of patriotism, the same lack of real morality that allows you to torture someone, the same idea that real men carry guns and that protecting America means you have to fight a lose a war half way across the world against a country that never attacked you. It's irrational but so are you guys, always seeing the world as good guys and bad guys, and all problems as black and white. He's your kind of man, unfortunately, and he's nothing like a real one...

Can anyone name anything that West hasn't failed out? Army? Congress? Elections?

What is important is the Country. The Constitution. Our laws. Their enforcement. The integrity of our officials and institutions. A well functioning government. Smart, well educated, principled, courageous men and women to serve we, the American people, faithfully.

Allen West is dedicated to all of the above.

And I'd guess he welcomes contributions to support his efforts.

We'll see if he runs a smart campaign and who in America is serious about his idea of change.
