Lt. Col. Allen West Stands With Gov. Palin: Sen. Obama Is "Not One of Us"

Allen West for Congress ^ | October 8, 2008 | Allen West

[Fox_Mulder77]

Oct 8th, 2008 (Boca Raton, FL.) In response to the inflammatory racial statements made by Congressmen Meeks D-NY, Towns D-NY, and Jackson D-Ill. in the Jason Horowitz New York Observer article, "Black Congressmen Declare Racism in Palin's Rhetoric," (Ret.) Lt. Col. Allen West, congressional candidate for Florida's district 22, wrote the following:

"I have just finished reading an article written by Jason Horowitz in the New York Observer, "Black Congressmen Declare Racism in Palin's Rhetoric," and I am absolutely appalled. I refute the inflammatory comments of Rep. Meeks, Towns, and Jackson and I challenge them to debate me on the issue of race. Yes, I am a black conservative congressional candidate from district 22 in South Florida. This is a congressional district that is approximately 92% white. The tremendous support I've received in district 22, and throughout the country, doesn't jibe with Rep. Towns' claim that, “racism is alive and well in this country."

With that said, I reiterate the comment made by Governor Palin: Senator Obama is "not one of us". We are freedom loving Americans that believe in the Constitution, and shun marxist/socialist dogma. Sen. Obama's political and social allegiance with William Ayers proves he is, "not one of us." Let me bring to mind a simple maxim that my mom and dad taught me growing up in Georgia, "folks will know you by the company you keep." And as a retired Army Lieutenant Colonel I shall share a simple point: because of Senator Obama's associations, he would not be able to pass a background investigation in order to receive a security clearance. Yet, he seeks to be the Commander-in-Chief of our Armed Forces?

It has become apparent that any person taking a stand against Sen. Obama's campaign will face the "Brown Shirt" intimidation tactics of individuals seeking to stoke racial fires.

I am sick and tired of the 21st century version of plantation overseers that pass themselves off as black leaders but only keep the black community hostage. When I win this congressional race it will be interesting to see if the Congressional Black Caucus will open their doors to me. I suggest the door be opened, but then again, would they be racist for not allowing me membership?"

Best Regards, Lieutenant Colonel Allen B West (US Army, Retired) Candidate, Florida's US Congressional District 22

Ping!

[IMissPresidentReagan]

Thanks! for the ping. GO WEST. Here is for a West/Palin or Palin/West ticket in 2012. I’m not partial either way, so long as both names are on the ticket ;-)

Barack Obama is certainly not one of us.

Barack Obama & the Strategy of Manufactured Crisis

Listen to this Interview of James Simpson, by Sandy Rios, Tuesday 9/30 - WYLL 1160AM, Chicago, IL
From http://www.culturecampaign.com/culturecorner.aspx

Simpson documents his research in his article, providing Web links. He provides a rough flow chart.

Barack Obama campaigning with taxpayers' money for Raila Odinga, Marxist & pro-Islamist, despotic leader in Kenya

Barack Obama & Khalid Al-Mansour (old Black Panther comrade of Ayers & Dohrn and likely of Alice Palmer) who raised funds to get Obama into Harvard

And then there are... Herbert and Marion Sandler, the Pritzkers, and the "loose lips" of Charles Schumer and Harry Reid (and Henry Paulson is not above suspicion, with his control-freak power play and Goldman Sachs cronyism).

Get these articles and pictures out to everyone you know (or anything better that comes up) -- voters, media, officials and staff of both parties, everyone. We have time if we act now.

Video! We want video!

I anticipate riots (Or “Protests” as Kenya called them) after the election. It’s despicable to cause this type of racial warfare, the O camp is perpetuating. It won’t be the Republicans “stealing” this election...Especially considering the light shed on ACORN’s actions recently.

[puroresu]

In a sane world, we’ve have a West-Palin ticket and Obambi would never have risen higher than the Illinois State Senate.

[JDW11235]

But, Our Creator is at the Helm, He has a plan...Pray for our Leaders to make good choices, or the people to vote them out. We must not reject Him. Isaiah 65.

[JDW11235]

Or Community “Organizer”...

[Bahbah]

Just when I think that I could not admire this man any more than I do, he proves me wrong yet again.

I think that Allen West has the qualities necessary to be the president some day.

[CPT Clay]

Gosh I hpe Ltc West and LTC Russell win!!!!!!!!!

[Danae]

When McCain wins, this is exactly what I am afraid of. I think on a small level, in places like Portland Oregon, its a real possibility. That being said, I bow to no threat. McCain/Palin 08

[JDW11235]

I remember being in school when the O.J. Simpson verdict came out. It was a big shout out. Our class actually erupted in chaos when it happened. I thought a few fights were going to break out. I figure if that was any indication, school kids going at it over a murder case involving a pretty minor celebrity figure, this will be much worse. So many people think they deserve so many handouts, they’ll fight to keep them.

I think we need a leader who will fight for the True American Way of Life, not a failed system of Communistic Dogma. I’m excited for Palin, I’ll accept McCain, I’m gratfeul for his service, and hope he’ll come around.

[Henderson]

He is a 21st century politician.

Awesome

[WorkerbeeCitizen]

In a sane world, we’ve have a West-Palin ticket and Obambi would never have risen higher than the Illinois State Senate prison.

Fixed it.

[seekthetruth]

Being a Florida resident who can not vote for West, I sent him by second donation yesterday. We need him in Congress!

[M-cubed]

Glad to see u got thru school without buying the liberal rhetoric....This may be of interest to u http://www.dailymotion.com/video/k6KUDv1wzraWhwlBt1

[GitmoSailor]

I left Hillary Out!!!!!!!!!!.....

[GitmoSailor]

[AuntB]

BTT!

[unspun]

I strongly suggest keeping Hillary in!

We need the PUMA’s!

[Lumper20]

LTC West is dead on. We do not tolerate that BS in the military. Do your damn job and you will be respected and accepted. It is that damn simple. Obama will never pass a BI for a TS.

[Ramius]

Wow. This guy is good. Any word on what his chances are in the election?

Whatever happens in this election, I am encouraged that there is a fresh crop of republicans standing up to join the fight. Sarah Palin and Bobby Jindal embody this in the best way, and it seems that LtCol West is made of the same stuff. Very encouraging.

The GOP has suffered for too long now with the old guard that’s lost the fire in the belly. They don’t fight. They’re afraid of their own shadow and afraid that dems will call them names.

But that’s changing. Relief troops are starting to show up, finally. It may take a few years to start making progress but I’m very, very encouraged.

[Lumper20]

I agree. These are the doers of deeds, who earned the right to serve the people. They want to serve for the right reasons. West is among the best.

[ajwharton]

What a great American Allen West is. I had the pleasure of meeting him at a fundraiser in Boca. He was working the room and came and sat down with us for about 30 minutes. We talked about a lot of stuff, including the pros and cons of the M4.
