Lt. Col. Allen West is one of the most stand up guys you'll ever meet. He first came to the public eye when his interrogation of an Iraqi yielded lifesaving results even as it was a bit unorthodox. His professional handling of that incident put him on a track to run for Florida's 22nd District House seat, a race he won handily despite the left's unhinged attacks upon him.
West ran a clean campaign in Florida's 22nd. He avoided over-the-top attacks on his opponent and did not indulge fits of name-calling. This is not to say that he soft-pedaled his opinions on just how wrong the Democrats were as he sought to delineate the policy differences between himself and the left he was battling. But West did campaign with a serious tone and an even-tempered demeanor. He was not an arm waver, he did not indulge flights of fantastic conspiracies, nor did he employ vile attack ads in his race. Pointed rhetoric? Yes. Obscene, wild-eyed, foaming at the mouth attacks? Not at all.
With that said, why does Politico seem to think that Allen West is on track to become the right's version of the despicable Alan Grayson, also a Floridian?
Following are several videos to show the difference between the two men to prove that West is an adult and Grayson is a mental case...
That caucus will hear the first intelligent words coming out of anyones MOUTH..
Be like Ann Coulter attending the Possum Lodge of Red Green..
"They are men.. But they can change.. If they have to... they guess.."
"If democrats don't find you handsome, they should at least find you Rinos."
Ping..............
“The left is gearing up to destroy Allen West.”
Hi Friend,
You mean they are gearing up to TRY to destroy Allen West!
They won’t succeed, and they realize they are seeing a true Conservative who most likely will be a future President of our country!
What fun it is to see the LIBS so frightened!

PS: If you want off my Florida ping list, just let me know.
Were you at the victory party for the Col.?
Doubtful. He’s not a sh1tbag lawyer, for one. Two, I don’t think anyone can be both as stupid and wicked as Grayson. And have the MSM celebrate him as much as they possibly could.
“Great article, thanks.
Alan West is an exceptional man.
He spoke at the Free Republic Convention back on Sept 12, 2009.”
Hi Friend,
Yes, Allen spoke at our convention and wowed us all! It was on the convention weekend that hubby and I got to first meet Allen in person. We were supporters in his 08 run for Congress and it was such an honor to meet him! Like I said, when Allen won Nov.2nd, America won!
Not true. Representative has a number of thing that Grayson did not. Among them are intelligence, decency, and good character.
There is no doubt that Allen West is Presidential material.. and that come from BOTH the left and the right of the political spectrum.. well except for the FAR left that is..
You Betcha!
Are you sure they’ll even let him in?
He’s in.......
re: Politico; Ignore them. They were abused children.
The liberals have won the first battle against Allen West since the election kicked them down. They’ve chased Joyce Kaufman off his staff. Breaking today...and the liberal media pukes in South Florida are enabling him.
The south Florida media worships Hussein.
And they won’t stop with this one victory, either.
FReegards, DrMike
Agreed. Allan West is a brave, intelligent, patriotic American and bears no resemblance whatsoever to Maddog Grayson.
The left is nutz. But very destructive.
January 3rd will be a wonderful day when all the new Conservative members of Congress will be sworn in. I will be watching on TV, for sure!
TPM is obviously run by leftist kooks. Obvious from the remarks on the comments section...it draws a readership that is left of Lenin. The fact that Joyce and her station contacted the police AND that the deranged lunatic making the threat did so in connection with a RACHEL MADDOW PROGRAM shows it was not a "right winger" who was pretending like he/she/it was going to shoot kids.
Allen West is the most stand-up honorable man I know.
Period.
And that’s what scares the living S##T out of the lefty libs.
