View Full Version : Congressman Allen West, LTC(r) is trying
Our new Congressman Allen West, LTC(r) is trying to put a face on the new Republican party. He convened a Town-Hall meeting of his constituents in the village of Boynton Beach, a sleepy little Snow Bird enclave, between Palm Beach and Ft Lauderdale..
Of course CNN takes the left view that it was a pep-rally for the tea party. They also seen to side with Nezar Hamze, executive director of the Council on American-Islamic Relations in Miami.
As if this was the only topic..
Besides bugging the Congressman about his concealed carry permit..
I love it when they want to stir-up the masses..
Not a lot of content, so I won't quote the article..

Hehehehe, I know that place, used to sneak into the pool late at night.....
LTC West scares the hell out of the left and they'll be trying to trash him more and more, he seems to be OK with that and handles them well. We need more like him....jd
IMO, Congressman Allen West, LTC(r) is a breath of fresh air amongst political blowhards.
Let's hope he fulfills his potential - DC can be such a quagmire.
All the best to Congressman West - IMO, he represents true hope and change.

Good post! Hope we see many more like him soon.
Happened to see Him on one of the news shows. He was insightful and smart. He knew what he was talking about (wasn't just repeating press-points pulled together by an aide).The man knows history. It was wonderful!! Wish him well.
Al is a good friend, we were in Astan as contractors on the same team for 18 months. Had the honor of going to his swearing in ceremony etc.
What the article didn't say is that Al opened the town hall questioning by saying...'Let me take questions first from those that did not vote for me'...also, at the end Mr.Hamze told the news media that he was impressed that Al wanted to hear his opposing opinion.

I deem that a "cerebral ass whuppin'"
I recently watched him participate in a meeting with several Tea Party members on C-Span. After watching it for several minutes it became quite clear that he was absolutely the best speaker of them all. He is a great speaker and gave quick pertinent replies to the answers thrown at him. It was refreshing to see someone confidently provide relevant anwers to questions given him from the audience without having to concoct some type of answer that really doesn't apply. He is definitely a squared away individual and will go far in politics, IMO. He is certainly a breath of fresh air as was said in an earlier post.

...I'll wager West has a tight shot group, both written and spoken.
I think that we are watching a star in the making.
He must be driving the sniveling bureaucrats nuts.
Wow!! I think I love him!
Al is what he says he is and he's exactly what we need in our Govt.
Go to his political site and drop him a line, he can use the support.
He is already on the Dems 'hit list' because he is 'all that' and more and it does scare the hell out of them.
The Huffington Post's spin on the story:
...In his response to the man's defense of moderate Islam {What is moderate Islam? Submitting a red herring is defense? Nezar Hamze, Executive Director of the Council for American Islamic Relations was not defending, he was dissembling.} West told him not to "try to blow sunshine up my butt."
...Of course, West has never been shy about making controversial statements about Islam.

Suspicious powder mailed to Rep. Allen West is hoax, tests show
By Alexia Campbell and Wayne K. Roustan, Sun Sentinel
11:28 p.m. EDT, April 8, 2011
BOCA RATON—
A suspicious white powder mailed to U.S. Rep. Allen West turned out to be a hoax, ending a three-hour scare on Friday that drew a swarm of local and federal investigators to his campaign office in Boca Raton.
Hazardous materials handlers in blue suits tested the powder around 4:30 p.m. in the parking lot outside his office at 2108 N. Federal Highway. No biohazardous substances were detected, according to Boca Raton Fire-Rescue spokesman Frank Correggio.
"It was not anthrax," he said. The tests did not reveal what it was.
A letter mailed with the white powder had mentioned the word "anthrax" and included derogatory comments toward West, according to a statement from Chief of Staff Jonathan Blythe.
A campaign worker picked up the letter at a post office box in Deerfield Beach and opened it at West's campaign office in Boca Raton, according to Blythe.
The discovery triggered a local and federal investigation, putting West's offices in West Palm Beach and Fort Lauderdale on high alert.
Boca Raton police cars, Fire-Rescue engines and a Health Department truck surrounded his campaign office around 2 p.m.
West's office was roped off, while other shops in the Fifth Avenue Shops plaza remained open.
Health workers were on the scene to take the powder to a Miami lab if further tests were needed. Authorities are still investigating the case to see who may have sent the threatening letter.
West, who ousted Ron Klein in November from the U.S. House District 22 seat, said in the statement that he is "deeply disturbed" by the incident.
"I thoroughly condemn this act which does nothing but evidence the sick and deranged nature of the perpetrator," West said in a statement released Friday afternoon. "I will continue to serve the constituents of Florida's Congressional District 22 with honor and integrity."
South Florida has been the center of several anthrax scares since 2001, when the nation's first fatal anthrax case was reported in Boca Raton.
Robert Stevens, 63, photo editor of The Sun, died after coming in contact with an inhaled form of anthrax in October 2001.
Stevens was the first death from the anthrax attacks that killed four others and hurt 17 from Florida to Connecticut in the weeks after the 9-11 terrorist attacks.

No wonder the Democrats are out to hurt Rep. West, he is everything Obama is not. My wife compares Obama to David Dinkins, the former Mayor of NYC, it took 8years to clean up after his lack of leadership.
He (West) increases his security....
Stay safe.
