House Democrats lined up to excoriate GOP Rep. Allen West on Wednesday after he sent an incendiary email to the Democratic party chairwoman calling her "vile" and "not a lady."

Yet these same Democratic "Ladies" are strangely quiet when their Progressive news "Journalists" trash Sarah Palin and Michele Bachmann.

If he’s talking about Debbie, he’s right on.

Alan. Go borrow a rece card from Shela Jckson Lee. She has plenty. And PLAY IT on these broads.

[Freddd]

I notice it’s dropped out of the ‘news’ today.

Vile, Wasserman Schultz, lost.

[Bitsy]

Vile and not a lady.

If you speak truth who can argue except hypocritical, democrats seizing on an opportunity to bash a conservative. These people say worse things about conservatives - at least Alan's comments were printable.
Oh, and she is vile and not a lady - own it bag lady!

[Principled]

Those dems are racists.

After this presser, West may need to reconsider who is the most “despicable” member of Congress. To me, it’s a photo finish.

But since I’m not there I’ll defer to West. DWS is VILE

Look at that ladies hair. Can you imagine waking up and EVERY DAY is a bad hair day? LOL Yes, she is vile. Alan will NOT back down.

Skank:

Derogatory term for a (usually younger) female, implying trashiness or tackiness, lower-class status, poor hygiene, flakiness, and a scrawny, pockmarked sort of ugliness. May also imply promiscuity, but not necessarily. Can apply to any race, but most commonly used to describe white trash.

I really like Alan West...enough to offer my help as an economics advisor (alas, no answer). He is one of the few politicians I know who is willing to say exactly what he thinks. You know where he stands on the issues and he seems only to change his mind when the evidence suggests the alternative is better for his constituents. I think he could care less about what politicians think. He will do what he thinks is right and I find that very refreshing.

[Linda Frances]

West need to come right out and say, “she lied....giving details and proof of her lies” and say that he is tired of “professional politicians” lying to the public. The right gives generalities rather than explaining clearly what happened. If people understand what is going on, they would also be mad about her lies.

[VeniVidiVici]

The Democrats are whining because West sent this in an email? How embarrassing. He should have said this on the floor of the House.

[Kevin in California]

One can only imagine what these commies would be saying had Col. West said something that wasn’t true about this fugly woman Shultz.

[grumpygresh]

I salute you Mr. West. Keep standing strong against this cabal of bullies. It takes courage to stand up for the truth most of the time.

[skeeter]

They are vile.

Republicans have to begin treating their lying opponents with the respect they've earned - none.

The national shoe badly needs to scrape the democrats off of its sole.

[derSchurfer]

He should have brought up the fact that Obamacare has already taken 500 billion out of Medicare. There is no limit to their hypocrisy!

[COBOL2Java]

House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., whom West copied on his email, defended the tea party-backed freshman.

"Tensions are building here sure," McCarthy told Fox News on Tuesday. "Allen is going to defend himself. There's always a way to display that differently."

Translations follow:

"Tensions are building here sure,": "We don't need this bad press! Please don't hate us!"

"Allen is going to defend himself.": "Dude's on his own!"

"There's always a way to display that differently.": "Excuse me while I back into the tall grass."
